This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 1180

Chapter 1180 Teach Him a Lesson

Toby assumed that the beating was not because Connor murdered his father, broke his mother’s heart, and made him lose both parents since he was young.

Toby’s resentment toward Connor was so massive that a simple beating would not be able to relieve his rage at all.

Sonia knew about this matter, so she wouldn’t have made up her mind to help him out because of this. Therefore, he presumed that what Sonia meant by helping him out was a slight grudge that was much milder than his father’s murder and his mother’s heartbreak.

Sonia tucked her hair behind her ear and glanced at Tom before saying, “Do you remember when I told you yesterday morning that I wanted to talk to you?”

“Yes, I do.” Toby nodded.

Sonia sighed. “But we spent the night in the old manor last night, and we—”

At this point, she suddenly realized something and blushed. She glanced at Tom, who was looking back at her curiously, and quickly blurted, “Anyway, we didn’t manage to have that talk last night.”

“So, did you plan to tell me about you beating up Connor?” Toby asked.

“Yes.” Sonia nodded. “Tom went to see you at Bayside Residence the night before when you came home, didn’t he? You guys talked for a while. I didn’t know what you were talking about, but you looked quite upset when he left. Obviously, something had happened, but when I asked you about it, you refused to tell me and even said that you were fine. But, of course, I knew you weren’t okay, and you weren’t telling me because you didn’t want me to be worried, so you decided to keep me in the dark. But how could you not know that I would still be concerned over this even if you didn’t tell me anything? I didn’t sleep well that night because of this.”

“I’m so sorry.” Toby’s eyelashes fluttered as he gently embraced her. “I didn’t know about that.”

Indeed, he didn’t want her to be worried because of that incident, so he decided not to tell her, but he never thought that she would be so concerned that it disrupted her sleep. So it was his fault for not thinking things through.

As for Tom, who was in the driver’s seat, he lowered his head sheepishly and turned around quietly after hearing what Sonia said. So he understood Sonia’s decision.

Oh gosh, it’s my unlucky day. Miss Reed will definitely tell Mr. Fuller that I was the one who told her about this.

At first, he thought that they had talked things out last night, but he didn’t know that they didn’t discuss the matter at all.

Why didn’t they talk?! If Miss Reed talked to Mr. Fuller last night, and she told him that I was the one who told her about it, Mr. Fuller couldn’t do anything to me because I wasn’t there! But it seems that I have run out of luck. I didn’t expect them to talk about this when I’m right here! Under such circumstances, Miss Reed will undoubtedly reveal the truth, and I can’t escape if Mr. Fuller wants to beat the cr*p out of me!

Oh dear… Tom prayed for Toby to be merciful.

Sonia had no idea that Tom was on pins and needles now. She made herself comfortable in Toby’s arms, nudged his shoulder gently with her chin, and smiled as she looked out the window. “No, you didn’t do anything wrong. You didn’t want to tell me because you didn’t want me to worry. I can understand your concern, and it wasn’t your fault. So, the next day, when you returned home to take the USB drive, I asked Tom what he said to you last night.”

At this point, Toby could hazard a guess about what had happened. So, he narrowed his eyes and swept his gaze at the driver’s seat.

Although Tom had already turned back and sat properly in his seat, Toby’s glare sent a chill down Tom’s spine, and he shivered in fright.

Toby’s glare was so fearsome that it could scare him even if he didn’t meet his eyes directly.

“Did he tell you everything?” Although it was a question, it sounded more like a statement.
