This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 576 Tim’s Revelation

The next day, Sonia received a call from Tim, who informed her to collect her medicine from the

hospital. Ever since Carl’s poison had affected her uterus, she had been taking medication to fully

recover from the impact. Now that she had already been taking the same type of medicine and

undergone the same treatment a few times, Tim notified her that it was time to proceed to the next

stage of the treatment, which would also require a change of medication.

“Yup, I’m aware of that. I’ll come over in the afternoon,” Sonia replied to Tim, who was on the other end

of the call, before she kept her phone away, whereupon she headed for Paradigm Co. from home.

“President Reed.” Daphne stood outside Sonia’s office and when she saw Sonia stepping out of the

elevator, Daphne bowed at her. “Welcome back.”

“Thank you.” Sonia smiled as Daphne opened the door for her and extended an arm to invite her

inside.

When Sonia was about to enter the office, she suddenly stopped in her tracks as if she had just seen

something. While fixing her eyes on Daphne’s face, she asked in a concerned manner, “Daphne, didn’t

you have a good rest in the past two days? You look haggard. Are you okay?”

Daphne rubbed her own face with bitterness that flashed across before it disappeared. Then, she

curled her lips upward and replied, “Thanks for your concern, President Reed. Something came up in

the past two days, so I didn’t really have a good rest.”

“What was it? Do you need help with it?” Sonia asked again.

“Oh, it’s nothing big.” Daphne shook her head. “It’s fine. I can handle it myself.” President Reed mustn’t

know what has happened between me and President Lane.

When she noticed her secretary’s insistence, Sonia decided not to press on and instead nodded.

“Alright, if you need anything, please let me know.”

“Sure, President Reed.” A grateful Daphne smiled.

Then, Sonia walked into her office with Daphne right behind her as Daphne reported about her

schedule for the day. When she heard that she had to attend a meeting about alternative energy at the

Fuller Group, Sonia paused in surprise. “Did you just say that I have a meeting to attend at the Fuller

Group?” She raised an eyebrow as she skeptically tried to confirm what she had just heard.

“Yes, President Reed.” Daphne adjusted her glasses.

“Now I get it. That’s where you’ll wait for me.” Sonia curled her lips upward, finally catching up to what

Toby meant when he said that they would meet again the next day. No wonder Toby said at that time

he will see me tomorrow. Well, it looks like he arranged this meeting quite a while ago.

“What do you mean, President Reed?” Daphne had no idea what was on Sonia’s mind, so she was

confused when she heard what Sonia had said.

Sonia responded by rubbing her temples. “Oh, it’s nothing. Did the higher-ups mention the theme that

will be discussed later in the meeting?”

“Yes, they did.” Daphne opened the document in her hand and flipped to a page before giving the file to

Sonia. “The alternative energy technology has been on trial in the market for quite a while now, so the

meeting today is for all the investors to discuss the pros and cons that it can bring from their own

companies to see whether there is any room for improvement. If there aren’t any cons, the technology

will be fully launched in the market.”

“Oh, really?” Sonia stroked her chin and took the document as she began to skim through it. After that,

she returned the file to Daphne and added, “Alright, I guess I’m more or less aware of what’s going on.

Please gather the feedback from those in our company with regards to the trial use of the new

technology. Once you have that done, compile everything and submit it to me.”

“Alright, President Reed.” Daphne turned around to step out of the office with the document.

When it was almost time for lunch, she organized and compiled everything for Sonia, who then shoved

everything in her briefcase. After that, she grabbed her purse and drove away from Paradigm Co. to

the hospital where she first planned to collect her medication before heading to the Fuller Group. Well, I

have plenty of time anyway since the meeting starts at 2:00PM.

The moment she arrived at the First World Hospital, Sonia made her way straight to Tim’s office, where

she saw him being engrossed with the writing of his medical report. Thus, she stood by the door and

knocked on it.

When Tim heard the knock, he paused in his writing and looked up to greet Sonia with a smile at the

sight of her. “Please come in.”

“Sure, I’ll make myself at home then.” She proceeded to head inside.

“You’re early.” Tim happened to close his pen with a lid. “Have you had lunch yet?”

“I ate a little in the car.”

“Well, I should treat you to a meal then. The food in the canteen is worth a try.” He opened his drawer

and took a white card out of it to flash it at Sonia.

“haul”

Sonia waved her hand to reject Tim’s kind offer. “No, thanks. I’m not hungry now. Furthermore, I still

have a meeting to attend later, so I’ll be running late if I were to have lunch now. Thus, please take me

to collect my medication now instead.”

Now that she had already said so, Tim could only give in and he inserted the card into his gown.

“Alright, I’ll take you to the OB-GYN for a check-up first, so that we can determine the extent of your

recovery before we can determine the necessary treatment for you.”

“Okay,” Sonia replied with an affirmative hum.

When both of them walked toward their destination, something seemingly crossed Sonia’s mind. Then,

she bit her lips and asked, “Dr. Lancaster, I have a question for you since your area of expertise

includes hypnosis. I want to know whether hypnosis can tamper with a person’s memory.”

“Why do you ask?” Tim looked at her.

Sonia blinked, but she decided to be honest. “Toby told me yesterday that he actually found out that

Tina was posing as me back then, but before he could expose her, he was hypnotized to forget the part

where he realized she wasn’t me. For the next six years, the hypnotic effect continued to dominate his

consciousness and prevented him from seeing the truth that I was the one whom he had been looking

for.”

Tim adjusted his glasses. “I get what you’re trying to say. You want to know whether Toby is being

honest, right?”

Sonia replied with an affirmative hum. “My intention exactly. After all, his words just sounded like a bolt

from the blue to me and I’m not sure whether I can trust them. Since you’re an expert in this area, I was

hoping you could tell me whether Toby was telling me the truth.”

“Well, you’re right. I can indeed tell whether what he said was true.”

“So—”

“It’s true!”

“Wait, what?” Sonia was stunned.

Tim stopped in his tracks and looked at her. “Toby is telling the truth. He was indeed hypnotized and

the person who did that to him was my senior, Miles.”

Sonia’s pupils dilated in surprise as it was expressed over her face. “Your senior?”

“That’s right.” Tim nodded. “I only came to know about this matter two months ago, though. In fact, I

had no idea that Toby had been hypnotized by Miles until he was involved in an accident that

significantly reduced the hypnotic effect within him. When he sensed that there was something wrong

with himself, he came to me for help and learned that Miles had taken control over his mind with

hypnosis.”

“So, it’s true!” Sonia’s eyes twitched, which clearly illustrated her unease. Toby was indeed hypnotized.

Considering the fact that they didn’t share a bitter history between each other, Sonia had no doubt that

Tim was covering up for Toby. Furthermore, she was sure that Toby wouldn’t dare to mess with Tim as

she believed he knew Tim’s capability as a competent doctor as he might one day require Tim’s help.

On the other hand, she was also convinced that Tim had treated Toby in the same way that he was

being treated because he was outclassed by Toby in terms of their social statuses. Therefore, Sonia

believed Tim had the power to decide whether he wanted to accept Toby’s offer if Toby had ever

approached him.

Moreover, Tim was not someone who could easily be bribed because anyone who ever intended to do

so would have to be ready to fork out a high price, which was usually in any form other than money

since the man itself was pretty well off. At the thought of that, Sonia took a deep breath and asked, “Dr.

Lancaster, what was the relationship between your senior and Tina? Why would he help Tina to

hypnotize Toby?”
