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

Chapter 486 Got Over It

She was only five when her mother passed away. Back then, she had no idea what cancer was, nor did she have

any concept of death. All she knew was her mother was terribly ill and had to stay in the hospital for a long time.

She had wanted to go to the hospital, but her grandfather suddenly came and took her away. He told her that Lina

wanted her to spend the summer vacation with him. “Your mother will get discharged after summer ends,” he said.

However, after a month, her mother didn’t come back. All she saw was a little urn that contained her mother.

When she grew up and knew what death was, Sonia burst into tears. She regretted following her grandfather back

then instead of staying with her mother at the hospital. If she did, she could have said goodbye to her mother.

That wish was finally fulfilled with this video, and she even got to say goodbye to her father. Six years ago, she also

couldn’t say goodbye to her father since he had committed suicide. Fortunately, they managed to say goodbye to

each other in the video.

Sonia ejected the disc and carefully held it, as if it was a priceless treasure. She could no longer hold her sorrow

back, so she let it out in the form of tears. After a long, long time of crying, she finally got exhausted and drifted to

sleep on the table.

Sonia was woken up by the sound of someone ringing the doorbell the next day. When she opened her eyes and sat

up, she realized her whole back was sore and her neck was stiff. Oh, I don’t think I can move my neck. Dang it.

After keeping the CD carefully, she got up and massaged her neck while leaving her study and heading to the door.

She opened the door only to be greeted by Charles holding a plush toy. “Morning, babe.” He grinned toothily.

Sonia was amused by his stupid grin, so she smiled. “Morning. Come in.”

However, Charles just stood there, as if he was petrified.

Sonia frowned. “What is it? Why are you just standing there?”

Charles finally snapped out of it and looked at her in surprise. “You’re back to your old self, babe.”

Sonia smiled. “Yes,” she answered curtly.

That piqued Charles’ curiosity. “How did you do that, babe? Did you accept your true identity already?”

Sonia grunted. “Yes, I did.”

“That was fast.” He held her hand and took her to the couch and sat her down. “Tell me, babe. How did you do it?”

He knew she’d accept the truth sooner or later, since the past couldn’t be changed. It’s not like she can break ties

with the Reeds. However, he never thought she would get over it in a single night. He thought it would take her a

long while to do so.

Sonia pulled a wet tissue out from the tissue box and wiped her eyes. Since she cried a few times the night before

and didn’t remove her makeup before she slept, her eyes felt uncomfortably dry. As she wiped her eyes, she

answered, “There’s a CD in the box Grace gave me. It’s a video my parents recorded before they died. They knew

I’d find out about the truth sooner or later, so they made the video in case I overthought the matter. They told me

they love me as a daughter even though they aren’t my real parents.” Then, her lips curled into a smile.

Charles looked at her and nodded in realization. “I see.”

“And I got over it.” She locked eyes with Charles. “They took me as one of their own. If I deny them just because

they aren’t my biological parents, then I’m just a piece of trash.”

Charles sat up. “That’s right. Just keep thinking that way. I was worried sick about you last night, and Mom couldn’t

even sleep. After all, she told you the truth, and she felt guilty about you feeling so down. She kept thinking she did

the wrong thing.”

Sonia poured a glass of water for herself. “Sorry, Charles. Sorry for worrying you guys. I’ll call Grace later,” she said

sheepishly.

“Sure.” Charles nodded. Just then, he remembered something, and he stuffed the plush toy into her hand. “This is

for you.”

“Why are you giving me this?” Sonia looked at the cute teddy bear, but she was perplexed.

Charles scratched his head. “I was worried you might still feel sad about the whole thing, so I thought I should get

you something to cheer you up. I wasn’t sure what would be appropriate, but I picked this little guy in the end. I

hope you don’t hate it.”

Sonia chuckled. “Of course not. I love it. Thank you, Charles.” She didn’t really like plush toys, but she’d never

trample on someone’s act of kindness.

The fact that she liked it made Charles smile. “Did you have breakfast already, babe?”

Sonia shook her head. “Not yet.”

“I’ll get some for you. Give me a minute.” Charles stood up.

Sonia nodded. “Sure. I’m going to take a shower and heal my eyes.”

She didn’t need a mirror to know her eyes were red and puffy, since Charles was shocked to see her when she

opened the door. He just didn’t say it out loud.

After Charles was gone, Sonia went to the bathroom to shower. When she was done, Charles was back with

breakfast. They had a quick breakfast before going out and went their own ways. Charles went back to his place,

while Sonia went to Paradigm Co.

After the cars were gone, someone came out from the shadows. The silhouette was holding a phone and talking to

someone.

Back at Fuller Group, Tom nodded. “I see. Come back then.” He hung up and knocked on Toby’s office’s door.

“Come in,” Toby said solemnly.

When Tom went in, he noticed Toby was leaning against his chair with his eyes closed, and he was clutching his

chest. He was frowning, looking like he was in pain. Tom tensed up when he saw that, and he went over to him

quickly. “What’s wrong, sir?”

Toby opened his eyes and put his hand down. “I’m fine.” He waved Tom off.

“Are you sure? You don’t look so good. Is it your heart—”

“Enough,” Toby interrupted him impatiently. “What is it?”

You’re obviously sick, but you don’t want to talk about it or let anyone ask. Tom sighed, feeling helpless. “It’s about

Miss Reed. When she came out today, she looked like her usual self again. She probably got over the truth already.”

Toby arched his eyebrow. “That was fast.” Miraculously, he shared Charles’ sentiment in this aspect. They knew

Sonia would get through it, but they never thought it’d be that fast.

Tom nodded. “Yes.”

Toby squinted. “Looks like someone must have told her something, or she couldn’t have got through it that quickly.

Someone like her would doubt herself and ask a lot of questions first before coming to terms with the truth.”

“Should I look into it then?”

Toby raised his hand. “No, let it be. It’s great that she got through it. Just ignore everything else.”

“Yes,” Tom answered.
