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

Chapter 898 Toby Doesn’t Love Her Very Much

Toby heard the somber tone in Sonia’s voice, and his prior delight instantly vanished. “Go ahead,” he said solemnly.

Sonia was standing in front of the elevator, so she closed her eyes and calmed herself down before she slowly

started regaling what had happened.

Meanwhile, Connor and Xander had climbed into Connor’s car.

Xander made sure that Connor was comfortably settled in his seat before he started the car. “Sir, where are we

headed for now?”

“Drive to the police station. Let’s take a look at that woman,” Connor drawled out in a solemn voice. He sat in the

backseat of the car with his legs apart, and both his hands rested on top of the walking cane that was between his

legs.

Xander quickly acknowledged his command and turned on the navigation system before driving off. He began to

vent, “Sir, that woman, Sonia Reed, really doesn’t know what’s good for her! You went to see her in person, but she

still refused to cooperate with you!”

Connor had an indiscernible look in his eye as he gazed out of the car. “You’re right. I never thought that she would

be this stubborn. I thought she was just a weakling who managed to gain the favor of the Fuller Family. Who knew

that she would have the guts to reject my offer?”

“Sir, we should never have come looking for her.” Xander frowned. “Anya Steinfeld destroyed both Sonia Reed and

Toby Fuller’s attires, so we need to get both of them to forgive her in order for us to get her released from

detention. We should have just gone straight to Toby Fuller. If he agreed to let Anya go, then Sonia would not be

able to go against him even if she was unhappy about it. I doubt that she would have the guts or the ability to stand

against Toby.”

Xander had a scornful expression.

Perhaps she would, if she was willing to end her relationship with Toby, but would she be willing to do that? Even

though they realized that she was not a weakling who relied on the Fuller Family, they still believed that she would

not give up on Toby so easily. After all, Toby wielded great influence in the business world, and as long as she

remained in a relationship with him, then she would surely receive a lot of benefits. Therefore, would it not have

been better if they met up with Toby directly?

There was no need for them to pay Sonia a visit. She was just an incompetent woman who was not worth their

time.

“You don’t understand!” Connor’s wrinkles deepened as he narrowed his eyes. “I didn’t come to see her for the

sake of asking her to forgive Anya. Like you said, if we looked for Sonia now, we would still have to pay a visit to

Toby later on, so it would’ve been easier if I just went straight to him since he’s the one who has the final say. I have

no reason to get Sonia’s opinion in the matter since Toby’s decision would be enough, but I came to see her

anyway. Why do you think that is?”

Xander shook his head.

Connor snorted. “I came to meet her to see just how important she is to Toby. Once I’m certain about this, then my

plans will not go awry.”

Xander came to a realization. “So that’s why. In that case, sir, did you find out what you wanted to know?”

He turned to look at Connor in the rearview mirror.

Connor tossed his walking cane to the side corner and said, “At first, I thought that Sonia would be some kind of

goddess with breathtaking beauty, or maybe a remarkable talent of some sort in order to captivate Toby into

winning her back after the divorce. This is why I made the trip to see her. I wanted to be sure of Toby’s affections

toward her. That way, we could use her to keep him in check, but it seems like I have overestimated her. She might

be of some importance to Toby, but it’s definitely not to the point where he would do anything for her.”

“What do you mean, sir?” Xander voiced his curiosity.

Connor crossed his legs and rested his hands on his knee. “I observed her carefully, and she may be quite pretty,

but she’s not that beautiful. There’s nothing special about her either, or else, why would her company be doing so

poorly under her leadership? The only positive thing I noticed about her was her attitude, which I felt deserved

some praise, but other than that, I see nothing unique about her. Toby will surely be aware of this as well, and that’s

why he hasn’t truly fallen in love with her. If he really loved her, then why would he stand by and watch as Paradigm

Co. faced obstacle after obstacle? For a man like Toby, he could have Paradigm Co. relisted on the stock exchange

with just a wave of his hand.”

“Yes, that is the case.” Xander nodded along. “Sir, you believe that Toby doesn’t love Sonia very much, and that’s

why he hasn’t done anything to help her?”

Connor hummed non-committedly.

“But something doesn’t add up.” Xander frowned.

Connor looked grim. “What doesn’t add up?”

“Both of these people.” Xander continued to drive as he added, “If Toby doesn’t love Sonia all that much, then why

did he try so hard to win her back after their divorce? In the information that we received, it was obvious that he

had put in a lot of effort into wooing her.”

“Perhaps he found her compatible.” Connor fell silent for a moment before he explained, “He may not love her very

much, but it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t love her at all. Toby probably has some affection for Sonia, but just not a

lot of it. Furthermore, he can’t stay single forever as the Fullers will need an heir. Therefore, instead of looking for a

woman that he has no feelings for at all, it would be better to resume his relationship with Sonia, who he did have

some feelings for. At least, she would be more compatible with him than any other woman. The Fullers are one of

the most influential families out there, so it doesn’t matter if Sonia comes from an inconsequential family

background, as the Fullers do not need to make a marriage of convenience. In fact, a marriage alliance would be

damaging to the Fullers as it might weaken the foothold that they have in the business world.”

“So that’s why.” Xander finally understood the situation, but his brows were still creased. “But sir, if Sonia isn’t that

important to Toby, then would our plans still work if we used her to control Toby? Doesn’t this mean that he would

easily give her up?”

“You’re right to be concerned about this. Sonia is of little value to us, but she still has some value to her. At least,

she is of some importance to Toby, and as long as we put it to good use, we might not get everything that we want,

but we will still get something out of it,” Connor declared as he toyed with the ring on his finger.

Xander nodded once more. “You’re right, sir. Oh, we’ve arrived at the police station.”

Connor’s expression stiffened when he heard the words ‘police station’, and his fingers tightened around the ring on

his finger until it almost felt like he would crumble it to pieces. However, he soon regained his cool and calmly got

out of the car before heading into the police station.

When he reached the entrance, he suddenly paused in his footsteps and stared up at the banner above the doors.

His mind raced, and his face started twitching all of a sudden.

Xander noticed the change in Connor, and he immediately called out, “Sir!”

When Connor heard Xander’s voice, he calmed down and gripped his walking cane a little tighter. Then, he said in a

low voice, “I’m fine. Let’s go.”

“Yes, sir.” Xander followed along behind him.

A police officer brought them to Anya.

She had been detained for two days. Throughout this time, she could not eat well, and she could not sleep well

either. Everything she did was under surveillance, and it reminded her of those two months of torture that she

endured.

In just the span of two short days, she had lost a significant amount of weight. Her cheeks were sunken and her skin

was sallow. She looked like she was at her wit’s end, and her limp hair had lost all its previous luster. She looked like

a completely different person, and even Xander jumped a little.

Despite that, Connor’s expression remained neutral as if he had not noticed any change in Anya. He leaned against

his walking cane and walked over to Anya. Then, he stuck the walking cane under her jaw and lifted her head up.
