Chapter 279 Caught the Culprit,Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again!
It turned out that three months ago, he had the opportunity to know that Sonia was the real Maple. Three months
ago, he had just divorced Sonia. If he had known that Sonia was Maple back then, Tina wouldn’t have gotten the
chance to attack her, and he might have gotten Sonia back a long time ago. However, there were no ifs in life. He
had indeed lost his chance to recognize Sonia because of Tyler. Nevertheless, he must also admit that he was also
part of the reason. If he had stood firm and snatched the letter back when Tyler took it away, the situation wouldn’t
have gotten to this point. It could only be said that God was messing with him! Meanwhile, Tyler was a nervous
wreck after Toby hung up on him.
Walking around with his phone in hand, he muttered, “This is bad. This is bad. Now, Toby must really hate me!” He
also regretted not letting Toby read the letter back then. If Toby had read it, Tina wouldn’t have gotten into the
picture, and he and Sonia would’ve already remarried. In the end, he had messed everything up! “This won’t do. I
have to find a way to fix this.” He pondered a little before giving Sonia a call. “Sonia, help!” Sonia was in the midst
of processing documents, so she didn’t look at her phone at all before answering the call.
To her surprise, it was Tyler, and the moment she picked up, he even cried for help. “What’s the matter? Have you
been arrested again?” Sonia asked faintly after clamping the phone between her ear and shoulder. Tyler exclaimed,
“Bah! Why would I get arrested? Sonia, can’t you expect better of me?” “It’s not that I don’t expect better of you,
but you seem like you’re prone to getting arrested,” Sonia answered while signing her name. Tyler’s face flushed.
“Sonia, you’re crossing a line!” “Okay, I was just kidding. What’s the matter? I’m still working.” Sonia closed the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsigned document, placed it aside, then took another document to go through it. Scratching his head, Tyler replied
dully, “The thing is, Toby might hate me now!” Immediately afterward, he told her about the letter. After he was
done, Sonia’s hand stopped moving.
Only then did she get to know that something like this happened after Tyler took the letter. Seeing as Sonia wasn’t
speaking, Tyler became anxious. “Sonia, Toby really hates me now. You must help me!” “I’m sorry, but this is your
family’s affair, so I won’t interfere.” With that, Sonia continued to read the documents. Not expecting Sonia to
refuse, Tyler blinked in astonishment. “Why? It’s also about you. If it wasn’t because of me—” “Okay, stop talking!”
Sonia interrupted him with a slight frown. “I know what you wanted to say. You were going to say that because of
you, Toby and I didn’t recognize each other, right?” Tyler nodded repeatedly. “Yes. If I had let Toby read the letter,
maybe both of you would have remarried long ago.”
“You’re wrong!” Sonia turned the document, her face blank. “Even if you showed the letter to Toby at that time, he
and I wouldn’t have remarried.” “Why?” Tyler asked in surprise. Sonia’s red lips opened slightly, and her voice was
cold as she replied, “There’s no actual reason. But, if you really want to know why, it’s because I don’t love him.
Why should I remarry a man I don’t love?” After saying that, she hung up the phone. At this moment, there was a
knock on the office door. Without lifting her head, she spat out, “Come in!” Daphne placed her hand down and
walked in before stopping at her desk.
“President Reed, the police station called just now and asked you to go there. They’ve caught the person who cast
the scary image on your floor-to-ceiling window!” Upon hearing this, Sonia suddenly raised her head. “They caught
the culprit?” “Yes!” Daphne nodded. Hearing that, Sonia smiled. Since the police station didn’t respond for so long,
she thought it was because they didn’t manage to catch the culprit and had secretly closed the case. “I see. I’ll be
right there!” Sonia put down her pen, then picked up her bag and walked toward the office door. As soon as she left
her office, she saw Carl walking toward her.
“Sonia, are you going out?” Carl asked after seeing the bag on Sonia’s shoulder upon stopping opposite her. Sonia
nodded slightly. “Yes. I’m going to the police station.” “The police station?” Carl narrowed his eyes. “Sonia, did
something happen?” “It’s not a big deal. They caught the culprit who cast an image of a skeleton on my floor-to-
ceiling window in the middle of the night!” Sonia replied concisely. Carl’s face darkened. “Someone cast a skeleton
image on your floor-to-ceiling window in the middle of the night?” “That’s right!” “Sonia, why didn’t you tell me
about this?”
Carl took Sonia’s hand, his eyes full of disapproval. “What if that person has malicious intentions?” When Sonia saw
how nervous and concerned he looked, warmth filled her heart. Smiling, she patted the back of his hand. “Don’t
worry. I’m fine, aren’t I? And they’ve already caught the culprit.” “I know you’re fine, but just because you’re fine
this time doesn’t mean you’ll be fine next time!” Carl was still worried. Sonia chuckled. “Okay, okay, I know. If
anything happens next time, you’ll be the first to know, all right?” Only then did Carl nod in satisfaction while
grunting his approval.
Sonia didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Okay, I’ll go to the police station first. If you have something to discuss
with me, we can talk when I come back.” “There’s nothing. I just came to see you. Since you’re leaving, then I’ll go
with you.” For fear that she would refuse, Carl directly took her hand and walked to the elevator after saying that.
Sitting in the passenger seat, Sonia suddenly remembered something, so she turned to look at Carl, who was

have you given it some thought?”
When Carl heard this, something flickered across his eyes, but he quickly recovered his cool and replied with a
gentle smile, “I think it’s better to forget it. My parents gave birth to me, so how could I be someone else’s son? As
for what she said about me looking like Gordon, it’s probably fate. After all, not many people in the world look
alike.” “That’s true.” Sonia propped her head on her hand. “I’ve seen photos of your parents. You really look a lot
like them. Maybe Rebecca’s mistaken. I’ll talk to her later and get her to stop having the idea of getting your hair.”
“Okay.”
Carl nodded with a smile. When Sonia turned toward the car window to look at the scenery outside, the smile on
Carl’s face disappeared instantly, and his expression twisted with hatred instead. That old man, Gordon Hayes, had
abandoned him and his mother back then. Now that he was dying, he had come to look for him again after knowing
that his other sons were unreliable. Does he really think he can be at ease after I return?
Oh, how naive! Carl was even more eager for Gordon to die than his other brothers! Ten minutes later, they arrived
at the police station. Carl parked the car. Just as Sonia opened the door, another car suddenly came and honked to
signal for her to get out of the way. Frowning, Sonia took a few steps forward, and the car followed as well before
finally stopping at the empty space where she had just stood. Soon, the car door opened, and a person Sonia was
familiar with came out of it. It was none other than Titus!
He had already seen Sonia when he was in the car, so he wasn’t surprised at all. They looked at each other, then
Titus asked with a gloomy face, “What are you doing at the police station?” “This is my personal matter. It doesn’t
seem to have anything to do with you, President Gray,” Sonia answered with a faint smile.
Carl was even more direct. After casting Titus a sweeping glance, he said, “Sonia, there’s no need to waste time on
people who aren’t important. Let’s go in first.” Sonia nodded slightly. However, just when she was about to turn
around, Titus suddenly narrowed his eyes and called out, “Stop!”
