Boss, Your Wifeâs Asking for A Divorce, Again Chapter 20
âMiss Reed, donât go too far.â Tina was frustrated, but she had to endure it. âMy father already apologized
to you about the video. Why are you still reluctant to give up? You even want to Snatch the marriage
proposal necklace
my boyfriend gave me?â
Sonia raised an eyebrow and laughed. âYou got together with President Fuller a few days after I divorced
him. I wonder if youâd been coveting him because you couldnât wait to be Mrs. Fuller!â
âWhat nonsense are you talking about?
Youâre obviously the one-â
âAnd Miss Gray, I have no intentions of
Tobyâs gaze darkened.
After a moment of silence, he handed
the jewelry box containing the Oceanâs
Heart to Sonia.
Tina panicked when she saw this, and she pulled on his sleeve. âToby, this is
the necklace you proposed to me with.
Donât=â
âYour father specially organized
todayâs banquet to celebrate your
recovery and discharge. It wonât be good to ruin the atmosphere.â Toby calmed her down. âItâs just a
necklace. After this, Iâll ask Tom to find a better
one and propose to you with that.â
When the guests heard this, they all
snatching anything from you,â Sonia interrupted before Tina could say much. âYouâre the one who wants
to give me a thank-you gift. I only have eyes for the Oceanâs Heart.â
Tina was rendered speechless. Biting her lips, she stood there as her face grew increasingly pale, like a
white flower about to wither.
As he watched on, Charles felt particularly good, and he almost
applauded Sonia.
âPresident Fuller, you have to say something. Donât be silent,â Charles
called out.
âIs it possible that youâre not a man of vour word?â
became envious. âYouâre so blessed, Miss Gray. No matter how rare the piece of jewelry is, President
Fuller would have a way to buy it for you!â
After complimenting Tina, they satirized Sonia once more.
Tinaâs expression improved when Toby said this, and she nodded obediently. âIâll listen to you.â
As Sonia listened to their conversation,
all she felt was the irony of the
situation.
She had been married to Tony for six
years. Forget jewelry; he had never
even bought her a piece of clothing.
Even their wedding ring was bought by
her.
Now, looking at how he was treating Tina, Sonia felt like her life was a joke.
Sonia suppressed the sadness in her
heart and accepted the jewelry box with a bright smile on her face.
âThis is such a rare piece of jewelry, yet youâre
giving it to me just like that. President
Fuller, it seems like you love Miss Gray
so much that you canât bear to let her
suffer any grievances at all.â
The woman spoke so enigmatically
that it made Toby uncomfortable, so
he replied lightly, âIâve given you the
Oceanâs Heart, and President Gray has
apologized to you, Sonia, donât pursue the matter of the video anymore.â
âOkay!â
Sonia readily agreed. She picked up a glass of red wine from the table, then tipped it toward Toby.
âPresident Fuller, Miss Gray, may you live a long and happy life together, and I hope you have plenty of
babies.â With that, she cocked her head back and drank the wine. After setting down the glass, she
turned and left.
âPresident Fuller, I have to thank you too.â Charles grinned, âIf it werenât for your indifference, my baby
wouldnât have come to her senses. Thank you for being so kind as to let my baby go.
She deserves the best.â Charles picked up the butterfly handbag on the table, which Sonia forgot to take,
then said warmly, âLetâs âLetâs go!â Charles held Carlâs shoulders and they left together, all the while
complaining, âThe air here is too filthy.
Iâd feel sick if I stayed here for one more second!â As Toby watched them leave, his brows furrowed, and
there was an indescribable feeling of irritability in his heart that wouldnât go away.
Sonia was a low-key person; it was a surprise that she had such an outstanding suitor. As soon as Sonia
got into the car, she closed her eyes and rested for less than a minute before Charles and Carl got in.
âBaby, you did a great job just now. Tsk. did you see the look on Tinaâs face? She looked like she wanted
nothing more than to eat you up.â Charles got into the driverâs seat, fastened his seat belt, and burst out
laughing.
âIt felt so good watching you that I wanted to applaud you!â Carl entered the back seat and handed the
butterfly handbag to Sonia. âYou left it on the table and forgot to take it.â âI left in a rush and didnât noticeâ
Sonia spoke as she retrieved her handbag.
Carl glanced at the jewelry box placed next to the seat, then asked Sonia, âSonia, do you⦠still care
about Toby? Did you want the Oceanâs Heart because you didnât want to see him and Tina together?â
Charles was driving as he looked at
Sonia in the rearview mirror, waiting for
her answer.
âWeâve gotten a divorce, so why should
I still care about him?â Sonia smiled. 1 didnât expect that Tinaâs mind would work so fast. She diverted
everyoneâs attention from the video by trying to give me a thank-you gift.â
As she spoke, she opened the jewelry box and showed it to Carl. âTve checked, and the jewelry
industryâs famous âkâ is the one who designed the Oceanâs Heart. The value is estimated to exceed 100
million. How can I not want such easy money? Donât you agree?â
Charles snorted. âA necklace worth 100 million? Baby, youâre awesome. You took a huge chunk out of
Toby!â âOf course I know that Iâm awesome.â Sonia hummed, then covered the jewelry box and threw it to
him. âFind a good channel and sell it for me.
100 million, Keep the extra money as my payment to you for your hard work.â âOkay!â When Carl saw
Soniaâs capricious expression, his brows eased, because it didnât seem like she was lying.
âSonia, seeing you like this, Iâm relieved.â âBaby, why donât I find you another boyfriend?â Charles smiled,
then he glanced at Sonia in the rearview mirror.
âTell me about your requests, or you and I can get together too. After all, my mom quite likes youâ âNo
way!â Before he could continue, he was interrupted by Carl.
âWhy not?â Charles rolled his eyes, then bragged, âNot only am I handsome, Iâm also multi-talented. I
grew up with Sonia, so Iâm the best candidate to be her husband!â Carl pursed his lips together, and the
aura he exuded was a little cold. âYou donât care about family.â âHuh?
How would you know if I care
about family? Youâve never lived with
me!â Charles looked at Carlâs
expression in the rearview mirror, then suddenly smiled. âHey, do you fancy Sonia too?
Sonia was taken aback. When she
recovered, she immediately reached
out and punched Charles.
âShut up.
Heâs only twenty-two! Heâs a child!â
âHeâs a twenty-two-year-old man. He
has nothing to do with the word âchildâ
anymore.â Charles proceeded with a
smirk.
âCarl, tell me: Are you a virgin?â
No matter how gentle Carl was, he was
still a little embarrassed by Charles
question. He coughed. âYesâ¦
âDo you have any intentions toward
Tina?â
Seeing as Charles was getting bolder with his questions with no sign of shutting up, Sonia caught sight
of the
chocolate bar in the middle rowâs armrest compartment, then she immediately tore it open and stuffed it
into his mouth.
Charles ate the large piece of
chocolate and whimpered, almost
choking to death
âThatâs how he is. He speaks without a
filter,â Sonia said to Carl. âDonât mind
him. Donât let his questions get to you.â
Carl hummed an answer but kept his
gaze on Soniaâs face.
After hesitating for a moment, he was
about to say something to Sonia when the phone in his pocket suddenly
Vibrated.
Carl glanced at his phone after taking it
out, and his expression changed
slightly.
Then, he moved to the other
side of the car and lowered his voice.
âWhatâs the matter?â
After the phone call ended, Carl told Charles, âI have something to deal with. Just drop me at the
intersection up
ahead.â
âWas it your agent?â Sonia asked, âHow
about you let Charles take you there?â
Carl gave a faint smile, then in a warm
and soft voice, he said, âThatâs okay. My car is on the way. Charles should send you home early so that
you can have a good rest.â
Upon hearing the young manâs
statement, Sonia nodded reluctantly.
Soon, Carl was out of the car.
When the car drove away, Sonia poked
her head out slightly and saw Carl
standing tall and straight by the
roadside with a well-defined profileâ¦
As she studied him, the person in her
As she studied him, the person in her
eyes seemed to turn into Toby from
eight years ago.
