This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 57

Inside the surveillance room, the three of them could see that Sonia and Charles entered the hot springs about an hour and a half ago but since then, the former never came out.

From this, it was obvious that she should still be in the hot springs.

“I’ll go check the hot springs!” With that, Charles immediately rushed out of the door.

Tina lifted her head and looked at Toby next to her before asking in a soft tone, “Toby, should we follow?”

“We should!” he answered with furrowed brows. “Charles suspects that her disappearance has something to do with you, so we must follow him to help clear your name. Let’s go.”

She smiled faintly and replied, “Alright. We’ll do as you say.”

When they got to the entrance of the hot springs, they could hear Charles negotiating with the security guard.

“Sir, I’ve told you that the hot springs’ operating hours have passed. There isn’t anyone inside.” The guard blocked Charles’ path to prevent him from getting in.

As Charles was about to say something while scratching his head, a loud scream could be heard coming from inside the hot springs, drawing everyone’s attention to the source.

Then, everyone saw a cleaning lady running out of the hot springs in fear while mumbling something to herself.

The guard grabbed her and asked, “What’s the problem?”

“S-Someone’s dead!” the cleaning lady stuttered.

“What?”

Everyone was shocked by what they just heard.

Then, she pointed inside with her trembling hand. “Someone has died inside the shower room of the women’s section!”

“Sonia!” Instantly, Charles’ expression changed as he rushed into the hot springs.

Toby and the guards also followed suit.

On the way, Toby looked really tense and the aura that he was exuding at that time was enough to suffocate anyone.

Is that woman really dead? Is this a joke? Is this all part of her prank?

As he gritted his teeth tightly, he suddenly felt a strange ache inside his heart that messed up his breathing.

Tina also seemed to notice the sudden change of his emotions. Even though she was filled with hatred inside, she still managed to get her eyes teary. “Toby, why does Miss Reed have to suffer so much at such a young age?”

She spoke as though she felt sorry and sad for Sonia’s death but when everyone else wasn’t watching, she curled up the corners of her lips.

This is great news! As long as she is dead, I won’t have any more worries.

When they arrived outside the shower room, they opened the door and went straight in, ignoring the ‘men are forbidden to enter’ sign above the door. However, the moment they entered, they immediately witnessed the terrifying scene of Sonia lying on the floor with a pool of blood still flowing from her head.

It took a while for Charles to come back to his senses before walking stiffly toward her.

Meanwhile, Toby stood at the door with his eyes locked onto Sonia’s pale face as he instinctively clenched his fists tightly.

It really is Sonia! She really is dead!

At this moment, he felt as though he had lost something that was important to him. Not only was his heart aching, it felt empty too.

Suddenly, Charles’ excited voice was heard. “She is alive. Sonia isn’t dead yet. She is still breathing!”

What? Tina’s smile froze all of a sudden and her eyes filled with disbelief. Sonia isn’t dead?

Toby’s eyes were trembling as he stared at Charles. “Is it true?”

“I’m sure of it. Sonia is indeed alive.” He could clearly feel her weak breath after placing his fingers right under her nose.

At the same time, the guard let out a sigh of relief before turning toward the cleaning lady with dissatisfaction. “What were you doing? She obviously isn’t dead, so why did you go running around saying that she is dead?”
