This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 975 Leaving The Restaurant

“Dad, what happened?” Rina asked while looking at Titus.

While gesturing at Julia with his lips, Titus replied, “Your mother was calling you.”

Once Rina learned that Julia was looking for her, she looked at Julia and asked, “Mom, why did you call me?”

“What were you thinking about? You were so lost in your thoughts that you didn’t even hear me calling you,” Julia

explained while frowning. There was a look of concern on her face as well.

Although she didn’t have much feelings for Rina, she wasn’t stingy about her responsibilities toward her daughter,

including being concerned for Rina.

“It’s nothing,” Rina mumbled with her head down.

As Julia and Titus glanced at each other, they knew that Rina was lying.

Sighing, Julia comforted, “Rina, are you still mad at me for what I said in your father’s ward? If you are, how about I

apologize to you again? It wasn’t my intention to hurt you with my words. I said those words because I’m still not

used to your return. Once we’ve spent more time together, I’ll get used to having you around and won’t act like

that again. So, Rina, can you forgive me?”

With her head still lowered, Rina didn’t answer Julia.

Wouldn’t act like that after getting used to it? I don’t think so.

She wasn’t their biological daughter, so it was normal for them to reject her because they weren’t related by blood,

and because of that, both adults wouldn’t have feelings for her no matter how long they spent time together. At this

moment, they treated her nicely mostly because it was their responsibility.

Ironically, they took up that responsibility because they thought she was Rina Gray.

Once they had discovered that she wasn’t their daughter, apart from their feelings for her, they would probably

stop being responsible for her too.

Seeing that Rina wasn’t talking, Julia grew anxious, while Titus frowned and commented, “Rina, your mother has

apologized to you. Aren’t you going to forgive her?”

As Rina noticed the unhappiness in his voice, she knew that she had taken a wrong move. Just as she was about to

make amends, her phone on the table suddenly started vibrating, which made them all glance toward it.

Being the one closest to Rina’s phone, Julia saw the contents displayed on the screen and asked in shock, “Mr. F?

Rina, who is this? Is he your boyfriend?”

Once Titus heard that his daughter had a boyfriend, his expression changed drastically. “What? Your boyfriend?

When did you have a boyfriend and why didn’t you tell me? What if he’s a scammer?”

Although he disliked the way his daughter was treating his wife, she was his daughter and his only descendant.

Besides his wife, she was the person whom he cared most about in the world.

How could he not be anxious after discovering she had a boyfriend?

Their family had been separated for over twenty years, and it hadn’t been long since her return, but now that she

had a boyfriend, it wouldn’t be long before she would have to get married. How would the two parents be able to

cope with that?

After all, the two hadn’t spent much time with their long-lost daughter, so how would they be willing to let their

daughter leave their home and live at another person’s place?

Even if they had to let Rina leave, they would like to spend a few years with her first.

Thus, if this Mr. F was truly their daughter’s boyfriend, he would do anything in his power to have Rina break up with

him!

“Your father’s right, Rina. You should have told us about this. What would we do if something happened to you

because of this boyfriend of yours?” Julia agreed with a nod.

When Rina noticed the reaction from them, she blushed out of awkwardness as she assured, “Dad, that’s not my

boyfriend. He’s just an acquaintance.”

How could she let that terrifying man be her boyfriend?

Moreover, the person she liked wasn’t him, but…

When Zane’s face appeared in her mind, her face blushed even redder as a trace of shyness emerged in her eyes,

which her parents noticed. However, they misunderstood her reaction, thinking they were right, and that the

person who had just sent a message to their daughter was her boyfriend.

Titus felt sour and his face turned red as he slapped the table while stating, “Rina, tell me who he is. I want to know

who dares to flirt with my daughter under my nose. This is driving me crazy.”

“Yes, Rina. Tell us, who is he? Let me help you take a look at his character and see whether he is the right man for

you,” Julia hurriedly agreed while nodding.

At that moment, Rina blushed even harder as she took her phone and stood up. “Oh, Mom, Dad, what are you guys

talking about? I said I don’t have a boyfriend, and I mean it. He is just an acquaintance.”

“Oh? Are you telling the truth?” Titus narrowed his eyes.

She answered with a nod, “Of course I’m telling the truth.”

After discovering the seriousness in their daughter’s expression, the two fell into silence. Then, Julia elaborated,

“Titus, I think we’ve misunderstood Rina. Maybe she really doesn’t have a boyfriend.”

“Even if she doesn’t have a boyfriend, she must have someone she likes, right?” he asked.

Rina’s shyness didn’t seem fake, so if she didn’t have a boyfriend, she must have been thinking about the man she

liked. Otherwise, why would she feel shy?

As expected, once Rina heard his words, her expression paled as she became anxious.

Watching the scene before her, Julia knew that what Titus said was true. “Rina, do you have someone you like?” she

asked as she pulled Rina’s hand.

Rina kept quiet while having her head lowered. Then, she withdrew her hand after a few moments and said

indifferently, “Alright, Mom, stop asking. I need to reply to the message.”

After that, she took a breath and walked to the window as she was afraid of bumping into Sonia if she went out. If

they were to meet each other again and get into a fight, it might attract her parents’ attention and lure them out.

As Julia watched her daughter’s back, she looked at her husband and whispered, “Honey, what do you think Rina

meant by that?”

Glancing at Rina as well, Titus shook his head and replied, “I don’t know.”

After a moment of silence, she asked, “Who do you think is the person Rina likes? I noticed her expression was not

right when I asked her about it. I think maybe that guy doesn’t like her back.”

Titus’ expression darkened when he heard that. “He should be honored that my daughter took a fancy to him. How

can he not like my daughter? Just wait until I find out who he is. I’ll skin him for not knowing chalk from cheese.”

In his eyes, his daughter was the best in the world, and all men were out of her league. Yet, now she had someone

she liked, but that man hadn’t returned her feelings.

Thinking about that made his blood boil.

While Julia listened to his aggrieved speech, she didn’t have much opinion on that matter. Instead, she was looking

at Rina, who had her head down while standing beside the window. She couldn’t help but feel curious about who Mr.

F was and why Rina had to reply to his messages behind their backs.

Also, she remembered Rina’s shocked and anxious expression when she mentioned Mr. F. Could it be that he was a

bad person?

On the other hand, Rina had come to the window and immediately opened the message Toby had sent, but when

she read its content, her grip on her phone suddenly tightened.

He told her to leave the restaurant with her parents!

It seemed like Sonia had told him about their encounter and Toby guessed that something was up.

Since things had come to this, she couldn’t stay here any longer.

Although she didn’t like it, she had to accept the reality that if Sonia wasn’t leaving, she would have to leave.

Moreover, she didn’t have the guts to go against his orders because he would definitely cause more trouble for her.

She took a deep breath, sent him a reply before storing her phone away, and returned to the dining table.
