This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 914

Chapter 914 Parents’ Grudge

As soon as he said that, Rose was taken aback for a moment. However, she soon calmed down and nodded with a sigh. “You’re right. Him being alive is the biggest flaw in this plan. Although you’ve never met him, you’ll eventually meet him one day. By then, this secret will start falling apart. It is but a matter of time for you to find out about it. But, I want to know how you found out about this if Connor hasn’t met you yet.”

Rose looked at Toby, who took a step back and sat down on a bench under her left hand. “Little Leaf told me.”

“Sonny?” Rose was stunned.

Mary was dubious as well. “How did the Young Mistress know?”

Except for her and Rose, no one else knew about this—not even Toby himself. She hadn’t expected Sonia to know, and was naturally surprised.

Toby didn’t hide it either, and answered them directly, “Little Leaf met Connor and found that he was very similar to me in the past, so she figured it out.”

Rose’s hand tightened around the cane she was holding. “What? Sonny met Connor? How did that happen? Did she go to Westsanshire?”

“No.” Toby shook his head slightly. “Connor came to Seafield. His illegitimate daughter provoked Little Leaf, and was thrown into jail by us. When he came to Seafield to bail her out, he ended up meeting Little Leaf.”

“I see.” Rose nodded in understanding before a strange expression appeared on her wrinkled face. “Toby, you just mentioned an illegitimate daughter. Does Connor have an illegitimate daughter?”

Toby hummed in reply. “For now, that seems to be the case.”

Though he was doubtful that Anya was Connor’s illegitimate daughter, he still thought of her as such while waiting for Tom’s investigation results to come out.

Hearing Toby’s words, Rose jabbed her cane on the ground with a sneer on her face. “Illegitimate daughter? Ha! And Val fell in love with such a man?”

Val was Toby’s mother’s nickname. Rose had always called her this way.

“If your mother finds out about this, she might turn in her grave.” Rose raised her eyes to look down at Toby.

Toby clenched his fists and looked up at her. “Grandma, did you also know about the agreement between my mother and Connor?”

Rose nodded noncommittally. “I did. Your mother thought she was hiding it very well, but everyone knew everything she had done, including me. When your mother first married your father, your father had just inherited Fuller Group. Compared to you, who was born ready for business and power, your father was more mediocre, so at that time, there were many senior management in the Fuller Group who were dissatisfied with him.

It was after I came forward and temporarily took over as chairman of the board to help your father suppress the rascals in the company that he was able to concentrate on building his portfolio and foundation. That is also why it was not your father who had the most power in Fuller Group back then, but me. My power extended all over Fuller Group and the Fuller Family, except for those spies that were placed by some rascals, so how could I not know about your mother’s actions?”
