Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 11

Sonia only sat in Toby’s car—they didn’t speak at all along the way. Soon, they arrived at the Fullers’ old mansion. Rose Fuller lived in the suburbs. She loved the quietness; she was often meditating and praying, and only a few women waited on her side. From afar, Sonia could hear the old lady’s coughs. Rose’s face was pale, and she didn’t seem to be in good health. At first, she said coldly to Toby, “Go and stand by the door.”

Then, she took Sonia into the house. “Who would have thought that not long after I went away, such a big thing would happen. Sonia, you are too impulsive this time round.” Sonia knew that the old lady was talking about her divorce from Toby. Slowly stepping forward, she held the old lady’s usually cold hand and smiled slightly. “Old Mrs. Fuller, you should be happy for me. I can finally be myself, right?”

The old lady glanced at Toby, who was outside, with a slight complaint in her eyes, and turned around while looking a little sad. “Toby, that foolish child. How could he let such a good wife like you go? And now, you even addressed me as ‘Old Mrs. Fuller’!” Sonia was startled, and she could feel tears filling up her eyes.

“Grandma.” Rose patted the back of Sonia’s hand. “Sonia, I can bear witness to your feelings for Toby these years. Can you really let go?” “I have no choice but to let go, Grandma.” Sonia felt bitterness in her heart.

So what if I couldn’t let go? Enough is enough. The old lady hugged her and gently patted her back to comfort her. “I won’t blame you for divorcing Toby. I knew this day would come sooner or later. It’s Toby who does not have the luck to be with you.” Sonia leaned quietly in Rose’s arms.

In the past few years in the Fuller family, Rose was the only one who ever showed kindness to her. Jean and Tyler both didn’t dare to mess around with her when Rose was around, and they always had to be cautious around her, so Sonia had long regarded Rose as her family.
