This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 1268

Chapter 1268 Poor Woman

If she’s still in jail, how did Cynthia know all that? Something’s off. “Did you visit Melody in jail?” Sonia narrowed her eyes. Cynthia shook her head. “No. I didn’t even go out for months, so how was I supposed to visit her? Besides, we aren’t even friends, to begin with. She thinks she’s too good to be my friend, and I’m not going to talk to someone who looks down on my family. I only happened to meet her by chance when I was out shopping a few days ago.”

“Wait, you saw her when you were shopping?” The look on Sonia’s face changed. “She wasn’t in jail?” Cynthia nodded in affirmative. “Yeah, she has been released.”

“Impossible.” Sonia didn’t believe it. A frown creased her forehead. “She was sentenced to years of jail time. How did she get out of it?”

“But that was the truth.” Cynthia looked at her timidly. “I was surprised to see her, too. The public doesn’t know she got slammed behind bars, but the upper society does. I even asked her how she got out, but she said nothing. She only asked me if Tina had come to see me. I was bewildered by her question at that time. I mean, Tina was dead, so how could she come to see me? Unless she became a ghost. That was exactly what I said to Melody, but guess what she told me? Tina’s still alive. And she even said part of that was thanks to her.”

Cynthia carefully studied the changes in Sonia’s expression. However, other than seeing her face was rather dark, Cynthia couldn’t discern what she was thinking at the moment. Quickly, she added, “Melody told me Tina wanted to see her when she was in the asylum. She even used Peter as an excuse to make Melody talk to her. I’m pretty sure you know how Melody is when it comes to love. She might not care about anyone, but she’s head over heels for Peter. Peter doesn’t like her and wants to divorce her with all his heart, but he can’t do anything about it since the Stryder Family isn’t one to be messed with. As long as Melody doesn’t want to get a divorce, he can’t break up with her.”

Sonia nodded in acknowledgment. “I know.”

The marriage of Peter and Melody was a joke for the upper society, just like her marriage with Toby. She had heard a lot of rumors regarding Melody and Peter’s relationship.

“Peter and Melody have been living separately throughout these years. He slept around with a lot of women just so Melody would get a divorce, but she still won’t give up on him. She’s deeply in love with him, after all.”

Cynthia stole a glance at Sonia and lowered her voice to a whisper as she continued, “It was not until the incident that happened a few months ago that everything changed. She meddled with another town’s administration, and you found evidence of it. You joined forces with the Colemans and tripped the Stryders.

“Most of the Stryders who were involved with politics were subjected to investigations. They might not have fallen yet, but they certainly were in decline. Peter seized the chance to divorce Melody. But even so, she still loves him very much. She wanted him to take her back, and Tina used that.”
