Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 974

"Yes." Toby then set his utensils down and said, his eyes flashing, "You know that Titus and his wife once suspected you were their daughter, right?"

Sonia nodded in response. While recalling this, a tinge of annoyance flashed across her face. "I know. I recall publicly admitting during Jessica's press conference that I am not my parents' biological child and was instead discovered by my father three days after he took Rina away. Titus and Julia began to suspect that I was the real 'Rina'. It's amusing how they continue to suspect other people as their daughter even after Rina has been found and a DNA test has been performed to confirm her identity. In this regard, I sympathize with her."

Toby felt a tinge of guilt when he saw Sonia's disdainful expression, but he didn't show it. "There's one thing you don't know about," he said, his face expressionless.

"What's that?" Sonia asked curiously.

With his gaze lowered, Toby answered, "I happened to hear that during the time when both Titus and Julia suspected you were the real 'Rina', Julia expressed that she did not have any feelings towards the current Rina. Rina heard it and from what I've heard, her reaction was massive."

Though Toby dismissed it as a coincidence, he had obtained such information from the people he had sent to spy on Rina.

That's why he knew this piece of information and Sonia didn't.

"What?” Sonia was stunned by his words. "Julia said she doesn’t have any feelings towards Rina?"

"Yes."

"How can that be?" She shook her head, feeling stunned. "Julia had a serious illness after my father took Rina away, and it is still affecting her emotionally. Logically, she should be overjoyed and lavishing Rina with her love now that Rina has returned. Julia can't possibly have no feelings for Rina! Furthermore, from what I can tell, they get along well."

"Julia is just putting on a show for the outsiders." Toby put his utensils down and leaned back against his chair. "She is well aware that such an attitude is wrong, so even though she has no feelings for Rina, Julia accepts her responsibility as a mother and pretends that she adores Rina."

"Oh my." Sonia believed everything Toby had said. After all, he had no reason to lie to her.

She then sneered coldly and continued, "That's unusual. How could a mother have no feelings for her daughter? I don't understand that."

Toby did not say anything to this, as he knew there was nothing wrong with Julia.

Rina wasn't her biological daughter; that was why she had no feelings for her.

Truth be told, Toby was also shocked and had the same doubts as Sonia had now when he first heard about it.

Bui Toby knew something that Sonia didn't—the current Rina was an imposter. She was not Titus and Julia's biological daughter. After all, Sonia was the true 'Rina'!

Hence, he understood why Julia did not have any feelings toward Rina.

This was her natural instinct as her mother.

Despite not knowing that Rina, who was in front of her now, was an imposter, Julia's maternal instinct prevented her from having any feelings for an imposter.

Sonia, on the other hand, did not know what Toby was thinking. She bit her lips for a few seconds and as if she had suddenly realized something, she opened her eyes widely and exclaimed, "Wait a minute... So, Rina was afraid of me meeting Titus and Julia, right? Rina wanted to chase me out because she is still bothered by the fact that they both once took me for their daughter, and Julia even once hurt Rina's heart over this. This is also why Rina followed me all the way, fearing that I would run into Titus and Julia and confirm their suspicions that I am their daughter, right?"

Toby responded with a light hum. "This is possible."

In fact, he initially did not plan to tell Sonia that Titus and Julia might be in Rina's room. He was also concerned that something unexpected would occur when they all met.

But, after giving it some thought, he decided against it and told her directly about Titus and Julia.

If he did not do so, Sonia would be left wondering why Rina acted so strangely, and she would inquire about who was inside Rina's room. After receiving the answer, she would begin to wonder why Rina was so afraid of allowing her to meet with Titus and Julia.

With that doubt planted within her, Sonia would undoubtedly pursue the matter. It would be a disaster if she managed to get the whole truth out.

That being the case, he told her right away that the person inside was Titus and his wife, followed by him purposefully leading her astray. This would clear her doubts and prevent any further investigation.

And he was right. Based on Sonia's reaction and her next words, he knew that he had succeeded in doing so.

With her lips pursed, she said dismissively, "Is there a problem with Rina's mind? A DNA test confirmed that she is their daughter. I just happen to share some characteristics with their daughter, but that doesn't mean I'm her! What does she have to be concerned about?"
