Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again Chapter 22
“The mango juice is very sweet.” Tina smiled sweetly at Toby, then placed the cup on the table. “Thank you for remembering what i like.”
Toby’s thin lips twitched slightly. “I remember all the things you like.
There’s a fruit farm with decent fruits. Tomorrow, I’ll ask the boss to send two
boxes of mangoes to the Gray
Residence. If there are other fruits
you’d like to eat, you can just tell me.”
“Okay.” Tina responded forcefully. She
started to feel uncomfortable, so she
pushed her chair aside and stood up
as her face became paler. “I’m going to
the restroom. Toby, you can carry on
chatting with my dad.”
Lifting the hem of her dress, she turned and hurried off. Tina had been allergic
to mangoes since she was a child, and having just a little bit would be life threatening. Before she got to the
restroom, she felt her breathing
becoming uneven, then she twisted her
leg and nearly fell down.
“Tina! Tina!” Julia rushed over and
hurriedly held her daughter.
When Julia saw the discomfort on
Tina’s face, she grew anxious. “Are you
out of your mind? You’re allergic to mangoes! Why did you drink the mango juice Toby gave you? Do you have a death wish?”
“Mom, I’m not feeling well…” Tina was
breathing hard and panting as she
tightly clutched Julia’s hand. “Call for a
doctor. You must never let Toby know.
If he asks you, you must say that I love
mangoes.”
“How can you still talk about this at such a time?!” Julia rebuked, trying to
help Tina to the lounge.
But, after taking a few steps, Tina felt
so sick that she fainted.
“Tina!” Julia was panicking so much
that she was almost in tears, and she
was all over the place. “Help! Someone
help!”.
In the banquet hall, Toby and Titus talked for a long time. Toby checked his watch, only to realize that twenty minutes had passed, but Tina hadn’t
retumed yet.
Tina had just recovered, so Toby was afraid that something else had happened to her body. Pushing his
chair back, he got up. “Mr. Gray, I’m
going to look for Tina.”
“Don’t worry. Tina is fine” Julia
happened to return, and when she
heard what Tony said, she chuckled
and assured him, “She’s just a little
sleepy after busying herself with us
today. I’ve brought her to the lounge to
rest.” Then, she added, “Toby, you’ve
also worked hard today. Go back and
get some early rest When Tina wakes
up, her father and I will bring her back.”
The banquet had come to an end, and
Toby was indeed a little tired.
“Then, I’ll have to trouble you with that,
Mrs. Gray,” Toby said solemnly. “When
you’re not so busy with company
affairs, i hope you and Mr. Gray can
honor me with your presence and have
a meal with my mother.”
Julia smiled. “Sure. Be careful on your
way back.”
Toby then retrieved his coat and left.
When he got to the door and turned
around, he saw Julia tell Titus
something before they walked to the
back of the banquet hall in a hurry.
At the side of the hotel, Tom was
already waiting. When Tom saw Toby
coming out, he hurriedly opened the
back door of the car. The car drove
smoothly to the Fuller Residence.
Now that everything had quieted down,
Toby felt even more irritated as scenes
of Sonia turning up at the banquet
crossed his mind. Not to mention,
there was that gentle and handsome
young man beside her.
Toby tugged on his tie. After a while, he
asked Tom in a deep voice, “Have you
found out Carl’s family situation?”
Tom reported his findings truthfully,
“Yes. Carl was born in Jordain County.
It’s a slum area, and it’s close to the
mountains, so the transportation system there isn’t developed. There‘s
only one school, and it’s ten kilometers
away. Six years ago, Miss Reed went to
Jordain County to visit the poor
children and provided Carl with
financial aid. After he left, he was
scouted by Vashine Entertainment on
his way to work during summer
vacation, and now, he’s their most
expensive male model. Carl’s also
particularly smart. Miss Reed was able
to become a shareholder of Paradigm
Co. so quickly because he helped her.”
After hearing all that, Toby said bleakly. “Sonia is controlling Paradigm Co with her shares, but if the shareholders disagree with her, Paradigm Co. won’t
