Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 818

Chapter 818 Jealous Rage

His curiosity and desire to see her were always on and off, which was how he dragged it on for 6 years before he finally met her. He kept telling himself that he wasn’t romantically interested in her—she was only someone whom he occasionally thought about. Someone whom he sometimes wanted to see. Someone whom he was curious about every now and then.

That was the reason why he didn’t think it was important whether they met or not, and it was for that exact reason that he missed the opportunity to strike when the iron was hot.

He truly regretted not making a move.

Would the outcome have been any different if he had spent time seeing her?

At that, Zane was so dismayed that he suddenly let out a weird howl before he covered his face, and his torso leaned into the chair.

Not only was Sonia surprised by his odd actions, the other patrons of the cafe also turned to look at the two of them.

As she was uncomfortable at having the spotlight shining on her and Zane, she apologetically smiled at them and forced out two small hacks to cough away her embarrassment. “Zane,” she called out in a whisper. “What the hell are you doing?”

Zane had a smile that looked even worse than the ugliest cries on his face as he looked at her. He seemed to be feeling all the sorrows in the world when he waved his hands dejectedly and moaned, “Nothing. I was just thinking about that one time I lost an opportunity of a lifetime, and how much I want to knock myself out, is all.”

“Huh?” Sonia didn’t understand a single word that Zane said.

He only shook his head without further explaining himself. “It is nothing. Go ahead and answer your call.”

“Oh.” She could tell that he wasn’t going to say more, and so she simply gave him a short reply as she nodded. She then pressed her phone to her ear and said gently, “Hello?” Her attention was now fully on the phone call.

Her voice put Toby to ease in an instant. Even the frown between his eyebrows had disappeared. “Why did you take so long to answer the call? Has the court hearing not ended yet?” he asked.

“It ended some time ago,” she answered. “I was talking to Zane.”

With that, she threw a glance at Zane, only to see him raising his cup at her with a smile on his face.

Toby immediately jumped out of his office chair when he heard her saying the name of Zane Coleman. “Zane?” he repeated, his thin lips pursing.

“Yup.” Sonia nodded.

After making sure that he hadn’t heard her wrongly, Toby’s eyebrows knitted together again. “Is he there with you?”

“Yeah.” She nodded again. “I’m meeting up with him because we have something to discuss.”

“What kind of ‘thing’ is it that you need to meet up to discuss?” His low voice rang out as his grip on his phone was getting tighter by the second.

Zane might have said that he had given up on pursuing Sonia, but it was hard to draw the lines when it came to feelings.

What if Zane suddenly didn’t feel like giving her up after he had seen her?

Anyhow, Zane was a ticking time bomb that Toby wasn’t sure when it would go off.

Even though he knew that his friend wouldn’t possibly attempt to blatantly snatch Sonia from him, Zach was still a love rival that was on par with him.

It was difficult for Toby to be at ease, knowing that his lover was with someone who had eyes on her. Even his sense of danger was telling him that one wrong move from his side and he could potentially lose Sonia to his love rival.

The more Tony thought about the possibilities, the angrier he became. If circumstances allowed, he would have loved to toss his work aside, head straight to them, and kick Zane away from his woman.

However, much to his regret, the only thing he could do was become grumpy.

A smiling Sonia began to shake her head in all helplessness when she detected the jealousy in his voice. Doesn’t sound like he is only a little jealous, she mused.

He was reacting exactly as she imagined he would, which was why she didn’t even think to tell him about Zane accompanying her to court. He might just get so jealous that he’ll come here right away!

“We have business with each other. You know that he and I are collaborating to deal with the Gray Family. We are just talking about our next steps.” Sonia’s eyes were twinkling when she said that.

Zane, who had already calmed his hysteria, placed his cup of coffee down and looked at her strangely. He didn’t understand why she had to lie about their meeting.

Sonia, on the other hand, only shook her head at him without any explanation.
