Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 1011

Chapter 1011

After all, Charles was a friend and a brother figure to her. Secondly, Charles came this time to help her, so it was inappropriate for Toby to treat him like this. Of course, she was also in the wrong. She knew that Toby was a petty and jealous lover, but it never occurred to her to tell him about her eating out with Charles to prepare him for it. Toby had probably said those things to Charles because he became jealous upon learning by chance that she and Charles had gone out together for dinner. Sigh, I have to learn the lesson and be more careful in the future. Lastly, I have to tell him wherever I go lest he becomes jealous and does something off-putting. At the thought of this, she shook her head helplessly and sent the latter half of her message.

On the other hand, Toby had returned to the Fuller Group at this moment. As soon as he sat down behind his desk, his cell phone vibrated. Tired, he loosened his tie until it was loosely hung around his neck before taking his cell phone out of his pocket.

When he saw that it was a text message from Sonia, the look of weariness in his eyes was instantly replaced with a more spirited look. Obviously, she had become a source of mental strength for him. Whenever he saw her or anything about her, he would feel incredibly contented and energetic.

A faint smile curved his thin lips before he quickly opened the text message from her to read its contents. However, when he saw her message telling him not to say those things to Charles again, his smile faded visibly. In the end, his lips compressed into a straight line, and he was clearly in a bad mood. Clutching his cell phone, he stared at the contents displayed on its screen with a dark expression and a sullen look in his eyes. How could she tell me not to say those things to Charles again? Does she care so much about him?

At this moment, he recalled how Sonia hadn't told him about Connor intercepting the spare parts. Instead of asking him for help, she turned to Charles and told the latter about it. Although he knew that she didn't go to him for some reason, he was upset at this moment. At least he was upset with Charles being there for comparison. She keeps on saying that she wants to grow up on her own without relying on me, but it turns out that she's willing to depend on Charles! How is asking Charles for help growing up on her own?

His lips curled into a sneer. If she hadn't gone to anyone, he would've been willing to accept it when she said she wanted to grow up and solve problems on her own without asking him for help. However, he found it unacceptable that she had turned to Charles for help after saying so. It made him feel that he couldn't compare with an outsider in her mind despite being her actual boyfriend.

He closed his eyes while pinching his nose. After a while, he opened his eyes expressionlessly. With a terrifyingly chilly aura about him, he replied to Sonia's text message. 'Let's talk tonight.'

When Sonia read the text message, the smile on her face froze all of a sudden. Somehow, when she saw such a reply from Toby, she had a bad feeling, and her heart skipped a beat. Furthermore, she could tell the note of frostiness and anger in the sentence. Am I imagining things? she thought uneasily while biting her lower lip. Her fingers went weak and trembled slightly as she typed her reply. 'Okay, but what are we gonna talk about? Why say "let's talk" all of a sudden? Did something happen to you?'

Usually, words like "let's talk" wouldn't be said aloud easily. Such words would only be said when there was a problem or a misunderstanding between a couple. In short, she had never heard of anyone saying "let's talk" under normal circumstances. Therefore, she couldn't help but wonder at this very moment if there was some misunderstanding between her and Toby that caused him to say that.

Rubbing the phone's screen with her thumb, she stared at the screen while waiting for Toby's reply. However, after a few minutes, the message displayed on her cell phone was still the one she had sent; there was no reply from him. Because of that, she couldn't help but wonder if he didn't see her message or if he didn't reply to her message because he had something unexpected to deal with and didn't see her message. Or could it be that he deliberately refused to reply to my message after seeing it?

She didn't know what Toby's situation was at the moment. However, judging from the words "let's talk," she was somewhat inclined to believe that Toby had deliberately refused to reply to her message after seeing it. If that was really the case, there must've been a misunderstanding between them.

For a time, Sonia's mind was in turmoil. She bit her lip so hard that her lower lip turned pale and was almost pierced. If it weren't that she couldn't call him and ask him directly about it in Charles' presence at this moment, she would've actually called him and asked him what was going on. She wouldn't have been as puzzled and clueless as she was now. She could only make wild guesses on her own, but the more she guessed, the more flustered and anxious she became.
