Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again
Chapter 226

Chapter 226

"Why would I ask Toby to come over to my place, then?” Sonia swung the feather duster aroundwhile she questioned Jean in a calm voice.

Jean stuck her hands on her waist. “Why else? You're obviously still hung up on Toby."

Her words thoroughly amused Sonia. “If that's the case, and he comes over because I want him to,that just shows that he isn't over me either, right?” Sonia asked.

"What a load of nonsense! Do you think he isn't over you? Stop dreaming! He never loved you tobegin with.” Jean held her head up arrogantly, her nostrils pointing toward Sonia's face as shespoke.

Sonia shifted her gaze away annoyedly. “If that's true, then do you think I could have convinced himto come over?”

"Well..." Jean cleared her throat as she fell silent. Soon enough, she stuck her chest out and repliedin a firm voice once more. “You used some sneaky tricks to get Toby to come over, didn't you?”“Hah. You're not even making sense.” Sonia narrowed her eyes to form a threatening glare. “Listenup, Jean. If you continue talking nonsense, I'll actually shove my toilet plunger against your mouth.”"H-How dare you!” Jean widened her eyes.

“You think I'd be afraid to do it?” Sonia scoffed. She swung her feather duster around, and Jeaninstinctively took a step backward. However, her movements had been too rushed, and her left heelaccidentally stepped on her own right toes, so she lost her balance and fell on her bottom. Herfacial features were squeezed together in agony as she let out wails and cries on the ground“Mom!” Tyler, who had been silent earlier, rushed over to help his mother up. Jean massaged herown bottom as she got to her feet.

“You deserve it!" Sonia uttered bluntly.

“You—" Jean started.

"What? You came here just to accuse me of causing Toby's car accident. I'm already being nice toyou right now.” Sonia shot the other woman a cold glare. “I want you to leave now, or else I'll causeeven more trouble for you!"

“I'd like to see the sort of troubles you can cause me!” Sonia's words didn't threaten Jean at all Jeaneven pushed Tyler aside to stand right in the middle of Sonia’s front door. “I won't leave until yougive me an explanation for Toby's accident!”

"Mom..." Tyler pressed a palm against his forehead in embarrassment. “Stop this.”

"Don’t meddle with my business.” Jean stared at him in a displeased manner.

Sonia was annoyed, but she couldn't do much except chuckle. “Fine. You don't want to leave, right?Don't regret your decision.” She turned around and walked into her house after that.

Tyler had a feeling that something was wrong, so he raised his voice to question the owner of thehouse. “What are you going to do, Sonia?"

Sonia ignored him and headed straight for the bathroom, where she filled up a bucket of waterbefore bringing it back to the front door and splashing it all over Jean.

Jean hadn't expected Sonia to do such a thing, and her expression darkened the moment sherealized what was going on. She didn't have the time to dodge the water, and her entire figure wassoaking wet within a matter of seconds.

When she rubbed her hand over her face and saw the random color stains mixed with water, sheknew that her makeup was totally ruined. “Ahhhh!” She let out a cry as she couldn't stand it anylonger.

Tyler had intended to show her some concern, but he got rid of that idea and held his head lowinstead. Gosh! How embarrassing. I never want to admit that this crazy-looking woman is actuallymy mother.

Meanwhile, Sonia tugged her lips into a satisfied smirk when she saw the pathetic-looking Jeanbefore her eyes. “I told you that I'd only cause more trouble if you didn't leave!”

Jean pulled her hand away from her face to reveal her hideous face covered in dark spots. “Just youwait! This isn't over yet! I'm not going to let you go so easily!” she hissed as she glared at Sonia.Once she finished her sentence, she turned around and stormed toward the elevators.

Tyler gazed at his mother before looking at Sonia. He parted his lips as if he were about to saysomething, but Sonia couldn't be bothered to talk to him anymore. She shut the door in his face.Tyler was disappointed-he had no choice but to swallow his words and chase after Jean. He figuredthat he could get back to his basketball team once he was done comforting Jean.

Once Sonia returned to her own living room, she placed the bucket of water on her coffee tablebefore picking her phone up and giving Rose a call. Sonia didn't care about Toby's condition Rosewas the only person she was worried about. Between Toby and Tyler, Rose was more fond of Toby,so she would certainly be shocked to hear that Toby had an accident.

Soon enough, the call went through, and Rose's weak voice sounded on the line. “Sonia. Do youmiss me already?”

"Yeah. Of course.” Sonia's facial muscles relaxed as she spoke to the old lady in a gentle tone. “Areyou okay, Grandma?”

Rose knew what she meant, and a kind smile spread across her face after she heard Sonia'squestion. “I'm fine.”

“But your voice... You sound really weak...” Sonia was still a little concerned.

NUS

Rose glanced at her grandson, who hadn't woken up since the accident. “Don’t worry, Sonia. I justdidn't get enough rest. It's no big deal.” How could she sleep when Toby got into such a hugeaccident? Rose had spent the entire night by his side-she didn't get a wink of sleep.

"I see,” Sonia muttered. She finally began to calm down once she decided that the old lady wasn'tlying to her. “I understand that President Fuller got into an accident and you're worried about him,but you still need to get some rest. You're old; you need to take care of your health,” Sonia advised.Rose chuckled before she replied, “Okay, okay. I got it. I'll get some rest once Toby wakes up; howdoes that sound?”

"He hasn't woken up yet?” Sonia raised an eyebrow. The accident had happened at about 11.00PMthe night before, and he hadn't woken up even after nine hours. It seems like he's quite badlyinjured, Sonia thought.

Rose shook her head. “No. The doctor said that he hurt his internal organs and his brain, so he's notgoing to wake up so soon. By the way, would you like to pay Toby a visit, Sonia?”

“It's fine, Grandma.” Sonia lowered her gaze as she rejected Rose's suggestion with a smile. “We'vegotten a divorce, so I don't think it's appropriate for me to go.”

“Okay, then,” Rose said with a dejected sigh.

After that, they chit-chatted on the phone for a while more before ending the call. By the time shegot ready and left the house, it was nearly 9.00AM. As Sonia drove out of the parking lot and passedby the road where the accident occurred, she slowed the car down a little to glance out the window.The spot of the car crash had been cleaned up-it was almost as if nothing had happened there. Nowthat I think about it, I still don't know why Toby ended up getting into an accident here. Well, it'snone of my business, is it? Sonia smiled as she put on her shades and continued drivingMeanwhile, at the hospital, Rose was sitting beside Toby's bed. She used a glass of water and somecotton swabs to dab water onto Toby's dry lips. All of a sudden, she heard someone knocking onthe door. “Come in,” she answered without looking up.

The door opened to reveal Tina with a bouquet of lilies. Tina looked shocked to see Rose in theroom, and her tone grew timid as she spoke. “You're here too, Old Mrs. Fuller.”

Rose knitted her brows in distaste. She couldn't stand Tina's weak and obedient demeanor-it madeher seem like she was the victim who was bullied all the time. Someone like Tina was nothing incomparison to Sonia.

I don't even understand what Toby likes about Tina. Rose shot Toby a sideways glare before shereplied to Tina, “Where else could I be when my grandson got into such a huge accident?”

“No, no. That's not what I meant. I'm just surprised that you would come here to care for Tobyinstead of getting some rest at home. You're getting old, after all.” Tina suppressed the anger withinher as she explained herself. I would've come a little later if I knew that she was here. She nevertreats me with respect at all! Once I become Toby's wife, I'm going to torture this old lady so much.She's going to regret treating me this way.

Rose lowered the glass of water onto the table. “Are those flowers for Toby?” she asked.

Tina nodded as she glanced at the flowers in her hand. “Yeah. I didn't know what flowers Toby likes,so I decided to buy lilies after giving it some thought.”

“Hold on. Did you just say that you don’t know what flowers Toby likes?” Rose narrowed her eyesabruptly.
