Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 1076

"What do you mean?" Sonia instinctively straightened her figure. Was there an argument during his meeting with

Harry? That doesn't make sense. After all, he's Harry's favorite student, and he has always respected Harry as a

teacher. So, I don't think they have a reason to be unhappy with one another. But after thinking about her

conversation with Charles earlier, Sonia felt like she could guess Toby's answer.

"Did the conversation go bad because of me?" Sonia gazed at Toby as she parted her red lips to speak at a slow

pace. Toby was silent for a while. "I knew it." The corner of Sonia's lips curled oddly, and no one could tell if she was

happy or sad. Her response sounded pretty neutral. After all, Harry was Toby's teacher, not hers; Harry wasn't

related to her in any way. So, she didn't really care if Harry liked her.

"What did you guys talk about?" Even though Sonia didn't care about what Harry thought of her, she still wanted to

know what she did, which led to their miserable conversation. Toby knitted his brows—he looked as if he didn't want

to answer her for a moment. Charles rolled his eyes at this. "Hey, Toby, why can't you just be honest? What's wrong

with telling us these things? You should say it aloud, especially since this has to do with Sonia. How did she get your

teacher mad? Your teacher wouldn't dislike her for no reason, right?"

Sonia didn't say anything, but Toby could tell that she was curious, so he ended up telling her what he and Harry

had talked about earlier that day. Toby didn't tell her the whole story—he simply gave her a summary of what

happened. He even changed how Harry phrased certain things to ensure that Sonia wouldn't feel any discomfort

after hearing his words. After all, Harry had been rather harsh with his words. Even though Toby was well-

intentioned, the way he changed certain words made his whole story sound rather stiff and made-up. So, Sonia

quickly realized that Toby hid parts of the story from her.

Judging by the way he spoke and the guilty expression on his face, Sonia could easily guess that Harry had been

talking badly about her. She curled her lips into a sarcastic smirk. "It's such a hassle for someone as well-known as

Harry to bother himself with some nobody like me. He didn't just pay attention to me; he even developed a

thorough understanding of me just to show that I'm no match for you at all. It must have been tiring for that old

man to do so much work," she said in self-deprecation.

Toby was unhappy after hearing the way that his girlfriend spoke of herself. He quickly reached his hands out to

turn her face so that she was looking into his eyes. "Stop talking nonsense! There shouldn't be any comparisons

between the both of us. To me, we're both on the same level. I've clarified this to my teacher, so you don't have to

worry about what my teacher said. I'll never take his words seriously," Toby uttered.

"Hmph. How can we tell if you're being honest?" Charles pursed his lips. Toby turned around to look at him with an

icy glare. If you say one more word, I'm going to kill you right here, Toby's eyes said. Charles seemed to get the

message from the hateful look in Toby's eyes. Charles shrank away when he realized that his words had triggered

Toby, and he no longer dared to say anything else after that. Toby let go of Charles after that. All along, Toby

tolerated Charles' provocative words only because of his relationship with Sonia and the Lanes. However, Toby

simply couldn't allow Charles to target his relationship with Sonia.

Charles had every reason to be grateful right then. Thankfully, I spoke in a joking tone earlier. I'm glad I wasn't

trying to stir a fight between Toby and Sonia. Toby wouldn't have let me go so quickly otherwise!

Naturally, Sonia noticed the hateful look that Toby flashed at Charles. She understood the reason for Toby's actions

and sighed before shaking her head in Charles' direction. You should watch your mouth in front of him, she

mouthed to Charles. She understood why Toby was so triggered—anyone would feel annoyed if there were another

person around them who constantly went against their opinions. This was incredibly frustrating when one was trying

to show his genuine love and care to the other part. So, it wasn't surprising that Toby felt the urge to murder

Charles right then.

If Sonia had been in the same position, she would've gotten mad too. Instead, after receiving Sonia's warning,

Charles carefully drew his fingers across his lips as if to show that his mouth was zipped shut. Only then did Sonia

turn her focus back to Toby.

"Don’t be mad. You know what Charles is like."

Toby pressed his lips together. "I don’t care about what other people think. I just want to know what you think—do

you think I never brought this up with my teacher?"

"Of course not." Sonia stared at the man earnestly. "I know you wouldn't lie to me about such a thing, so I never

suspected you at all. Charles was the only one who said that," she replied. Toby's brows relaxed a little upon hearing

her words. "That's good. I really told my teacher everything that I told you. After that, I told him to leave Fuller

Group. Anyway, I just don't want you to worry about this. No one's ever going to tear us apart." Toby's words were

firm as he spoke. His eyes glinted with a mixture of determination and fury.

When Sonia saw the look on his face, she knew Lynette's actions, and Harry's words must have infuriated Toby. That

was why Toby reassured her with an icy, hateful glare in his eyes. Well, I guess I can understand how he feels. After

all, it must be hard when the people around you consistently pressure you to break up with your partner. The

people around him keep telling him that he chose the wrong person and that he'd break up eventually, Sonia

thought. Well, I wouldn't be able to handle it, either.

"Toby." Right then, Charles, who had only been quiet for a while, spoke up again. Toby shot him an icy glare. "What

else do you want to say? If you're going to make some odd statement, then I'd rather you keep your mouth shut."

Charles spread his hands open in protest. "What makes you think I'm about to say something like that? I just wanted

to say that your teacher has been telling you to leave Sonia, that Sonia's not a good woman, that she's not a good

match for you... But have you considered who your teacher thinks is a good match for you?" he asked.

Sonia raised an eyebrow upon hearing Charles' words while Toby furrowed his brows once more. "No," he parted his

lips to reply. It was true—Toby had never considered this question in the past. Previously, all he did was argue

against his teacher—he didn't bother to think about anything else. He wasn't interested in hearing the answer,

anyway.

"It's Miss Lore, isn't it?" Sonia said out of nowhere. Toby looked at her, and she met his gaze with a smile. "Your

teacher probably wants to introduce his granddaughter to you so that you can be with her."

"That's right." Charles held his thumb up once more. "That's what I was thinking, too. If Harry keeps insulting Sonia,

claiming that she's not good enough for you and telling you to break up with her, then who does he expect you to

be with? There's only one answer—he wants you to be with his granddaughter. His granddaughter likes you, after

all. Since his son knows about this, I'm sure he's aware of this as well. So, Harry's trying to get his granddaughter

the man she fancies. As a grandfather, he'd certainly support her decision and wouldn't wish to see his

granddaughter sad or disappointed. He wouldn't introduce any woman other than her, would he? Furthermore, if

you dated his granddaughter, it wouldn’t just make his granddaughter happy; it'd also improve the Lore Family's

reputation. This is a win-win situation for them. I bet Harry's aware of this."

Toby was speechless at this point. He lowered his gaze as he contemplated the other man's words.
