This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 141

Seeing how Toby agreed to Zane’s words, Tina was filled with resentment because she knew that Zane was deliberately setting a trap for her—forcing her to hike a mountain that she didn’t want to. The important point was, she had to jump into this trap, or she would really be seen as a hypocrite.

At the thought of this, she silently cursed Zane a few times in her heart, but put on a smile on her face, saying, “You must be kidding, Mr. Coleman. All I said was the mountain is too high, and nothing about going home.”

“Oh, so you’ll still go for the hike?” Zane asked with raised eyebrows.

Nodding, she answered, “For sure.”

“Alright,” Zane said with a smirk and didn’t say anything else after that.

Looking at Tina, Toby said, “Tina, you don’t have to mind the things Zane said. If you really don’t want to go hiking, you can—”

“It’s alright, Toby. I can do this.” She broke him off and stopped him from speaking by placing a hand over his mouth.

Seeing how determined she seemed, Toby decided to drop the matter.

As Rebecca watched the both of them, she couldn’t help but shudder from disgust. “So cheesy.”

Grinning, Sonia asked, “Why is it cheesy?”

Pouting her lips, Rebecca answered, “We’re here for a hike, but look how corny they are. She’s even covering his lips as if they’re in a soap opera. I’m getting goosebumps from watching them. Isn’t it cheesy?”

Sonia turned back and stole a glance at Toby and Tina before nodding her head and laughing. “Yes, a little.”

“That’s enough, President Reed. Let’s go and stop looking at them. It hurts our eyes,” Rebecca said, holding her arm.

“Okay,” Sonia replied, and they entered the hiking entrance.

Behind everyone, Toby overheard their conversation, and his eyes turned solemn. Cheesy? Is that what we look like in their eyes?

“What are you thinking about, Toby?” Tina asked, swaying his arm.

Toby recollected his thoughts, and his eyes flashed. “Nothing. Let’s go.”

Hence, both of them entered the hiking entrance as well. Since everyone else didn’t want to hike together with them, both of them ended up trailing behind the group.

In the beginning, all seven of them were hiking slowly together, but halfway through, Tyler suddenly came up with the suggestion to have a competition to see who would reach the top first.

When he was coming up with the suggestion, he even threw a provocative look at Charles, who couldn’t stand his arrogance and agreed to the race. To join in the fun, Zane also decided to compete.

Even though Rebecca wanted to compete as well, she was ordered by Charles to stay by Sonia’s side to protect her. After all, he was worried if Sonia had to hike together with Toby and Tina.

Just like that, the three men started off together in a run, leaving behind Sonia, Rebecca, Toby, and Tina to hike behind slowly.

Just a little while after, Tina suddenly plopped herself on a rock, panting heavily. “Toby, I’m so tired.”

Toby stopped as well and took out a bottle of water from his backpack. After he opened it, he passed it to her and said, “Have a drink.”

“Thank you, Toby,” she said with a smile, taking the water from him.

Then, he took out another bottle and passed it to Sonia. Surprised at his gesture, Sonia turned down his offer, saying calmly, “Thanks, but no thanks, President Fuller. I’m afraid that your fiancée would have a split personality and try to kill me again if I accept your offer.” Right after saying that, she pulled Rebecca and walked away.

As Toby watched her walk away to a distance, he pursed his lips and retracted his extended hand.

Meanwhile, Tina could tell that he seemed a little upset, and her grip on the water bottle tightened so much that she had squeezed it out of shape. Is he upset because Sonia turned him down? Lowering her eyes and hiding the menacing look in them, she apologized meekly, “I’m sorry, Toby. It’s all because of me that Miss Reed is—”

“It has nothing to do with you.” After he put back the bottle of water into his backpack, he looked at her and asked, “Did you rest enough?”

“Yes,” she replied with a nod.
