This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 850

Chapter 850 Chubbier Jean White

Sonia didn’t know what Toby would think of her once he learned that she had lost their outfits.

All she knew was that she was feeling very uneasy, and she desperately wanted someone to be by her side—she wanted someone she could rely on.

In the past, before she got back together with Toby, she would just grit her teeth and bear with it no matter how uneasy she felt. The emotion would pass if she just stayed strong enough.

However, now that she had gotten back together with him, she was no longer alone. Naturally, she was going to depend on him a little.

After all, that was what boyfriends were meant for.

Sonia’s hands curled into fists as insecure thoughts flashed through her mind.

Meanwhile, Toby’s car came to a stop at the Fuller Residence. The moment Toby got out of the car, he spotted a rather chubby figure happily walking over to him from the front door.

“Toby! Why are you here?” Jean jogged over to Toby. She was panting as she had run toward him out of excitement. Not only that, she was being weighed down by her chubby figure. Her fat cheeks were bright red from the exertion.

Anyone could tell that she was exhausted.

Toby frowned. “Mom, you should go on a diet. You only ran a short distance, yet you’re panting hard. It’s not good for you.”

It had been a while since he last saw Jean, and he was shocked to realize that she had grown even fatter since the last time he saw her.

Previously, her eyes were tiny dots on her face. Now, all that could be seen were two slits.

Jean was upset to hear Toby call her fat. “A diet? Why? I’m just fine. The other ladies say that this is a sign of prosperity and good luck for our family.”

“They’re lying, yet you believe them?” Toby pursed his lips. “If this is a sign of good fortune, why don’t they look like you? Why don’t they try bringing good luck to their family?”

His line of questioning stunned Jean.

He had a point; if a plump figure was a sign of prosperity, why were those women so obsessed with slimming down?

Indeed, Jean was not a stupid woman. She soon realized what was going on, and the look on her face was very unpleasant.

Those women had lied to her!

They had deliberately tricked her so that they could laugh at her. In fact, their goal was to prevent her from slimming down so that they could mock her.

As for Jean, she thought they were speaking the truth; she even felt proud of herself. To think that they were all aiming to make fun of her from the start!

It was very likely they had been gossiping about her behind her back.

At that thought, Jean was furious. Due to her chubby figure and intense anger, she was heaving so badly that it looked like she was going to explode.

Additionally, she was also swaying as if she would collapse at any moment.

Upon seeing that, Toby’s frown deepened. He reached out to support her and said, “Careful.”

Jean gradually calmed down. Then, she happily patted Toby on the back of his hand and said, “You’re still the best, Toby. Thank goodness you supported me just now. Otherwise, I would’ve collapsed.”

“What happened just now?” Toby asked through pursed lips.

He could tell that something was off about her moments ago.

“Oh, I was just feeling dizzy all of a sudden,” Jean said with a wave of her hand. “My head was throbbing.”

Instantly, Toby understood what had happened.

“It’s high blood pressure,” Toby uttered in a deep voice.

Jean’s eyes widened with disbelief. “High blood pressure?”

“Yes,” Toby said while nodding. “To have those symptoms when you’re agitated means you have high blood pressure.”

“H-How could I have high blood pressure?” Jean’s jaw dropped in astonishment. “Isn’t that something only elderly people have?”
