Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 294

Toby’s face darkened when he heard this and he walked up to Sonia, ready to watch the broadcast from over her shoulder.

She turned her head slightly to glance at him. As she was unaffected by the close proximity between them, she did not try to make him leave. Then, she clicked into the link which had been shared through Tina’s social media platform before being instantly redirected to Tina’s livestream.

At that moment, Sonia was shocked to see that over ten million people were watching the livestream as well and their messages were piling onto the bullet screen. The real-time comments popped up one after another in such rapid succession that the words began to blur before her eyes. I bet there are popular livestreamers who could only dream of such social media coverage.

In the livestream, Tina was sitting upright on the hospital bed, looking pale and weak in her patient’s scrubs as she cast her bloodshot eyes at the camera. As she addressed her audience, she spoke feebly, “Thank you, everyone, for watching my live stream today. I’m sure all of you are aware of what has happened to me. As a woman, to have something as tragic as this happen is a devastating and traumatizing experience. I know I ought to be recuperating now instead of publicly speaking out and making a fool out of myself, but…”

She broke off and tipped her head back; she sniffed as she suppressed her tears like she was putting on a tough act. Then, she continued, “But I don’t think I can take it anymore. I’m in shreds as I lie here on the hospital bed while the person who has done this to me is still living freely out there! So, after spending a lot of time thinking about this, I believe that I should speak out and ensure the person who has hurt me will pay the price!”

The viewers flooded the bullet screen instantly, voicing out their unconditional support and sympathy for Tina.

‘That’s right! Why should the victim suffer like this while the person who did this to her walks free?’

‘Good for you, Miss Gray. You’re doing the right thing by exposing the person’s wicked crimes. That person deserves retribution!’

As the livestream went on, Sonia’s hands that were on the armrest clenched into fists. Rage thrummed in her veins while she stared at the screen incredulously.

I swear, her shamelessness knows no bounds! There was no disputing that Tina was, indeed, the victim, but Sonia had nothing to do with any of it.

Under normal circumstances, Sonia would have felt sorry for Tina, regardless of the bad blood between them. However, for Tina to pin the blame on Sonia instead of calling out the actual assailant was a low blow. I might even go so far as to say that she deserves the humiliation!

Toby was behind her and he clutched the back of the chair so tightly that his nails dug into the soft leather. He was just as outraged as Sonia was and his face was as dark as a stormy sky. Even the air around him seemed to have dropped to sub-zero temperatures.

She felt the hostility radiating from him and turned to cast him a mildly curious look. Her eyes glimmered, but without uttering a word, she returned to watching Tina’s infuriating livestream.

On the other side of the screen, Tina’s eyes brightened with glee when she saw the comments of those who rallied in support of her. However, she quickly became teary-eyed and made as if she was touched by everyone’s kind words as she responded, “Thank you. Thank you, everyone, for being so encouraging. I—I’m really—” She choked on her words and buried her face into her hands before she began to sob pathetically.

At the sight of this, the audience rushed to comfort her and tried to get her to stop crying.

After having offered their words of solace, the audience were relieved to see that she had seemingly calmed down. She pulled out a couple of tissues and dabbed her tears dry as she managed a tear-stained smile at the camera as she added, “Thank you for showing your concern, everyone. I’m feeling much better now.”

Believing that their efforts had paid off, the audience were elated to hear this and began to send gifts to Tina on the platform.

Tina, on the other hand, was pleased when she saw the amount of money that she was receiving from the audience. Looks like live streaming is working out for me better than I thought. I managed to destroy Sonia’s reputation and rake in a small fortune in the process.

“Miss Gray, you haven’t told us what Sonia did to hurt you,’ one of the more generous viewers prompted; the person’s message was in bright red as it stood out on the bullet screen.

Upon reading this, the rest of the audience was suddenly reminded of the purpose of Tina’s livestream and followed suit in prompting her for details.

Tina’s smile faltered as if she had just read the most depressing news and she made it a point to look terrified as she curled into herself, wrapping her arms around her knees as she recounted shakily, “On the day I was assaulted, Miss Reed contacted me and told me she wanted to speak to me in person. She asked that I head over to Bay Street, but when I arrived, she was nowhere in sight. The only ones there were the six men who worked under her orders.”

 
 

She paused at this and buried her face in her knees before she gave a heartbreaking sob once more.

The audience were stunned by the information.

‘What the hell? Six men?!’

‘My goodness! I always thought it was just one guy! I didn’t think there’d be six!’
