Chapter 282 To Be Detained Again,Boss, Your Wife's Asking for A Divorce, Again!

“Enough!” Sonia rubbed her forehead and said with a slightly impatient tone, “Rather than caringabout others, you should first worry about whether you will be detained again!” “Detained again?”Cynthia's expression changed. “Why should I be detained? I came to the police station!” “Are youclueless or are you pretending, huh?” Carl crossed his arms and stared at her coldly. “You paidsomeone to put up that kind of image on Sonia’s window. It is considered a criminal offense—it's acrime of intimidation!” “Wait, what? No! What do you mean by a crime of intimidation?

I didn't try to intimidate her; I only wanted to scare her. How is that a crime? It's a prank at most!”Cynthia exclaimed in panic. Seeing her doing this, Sonia knew in her heart that this woman wasindeed not pretending, and that she really didn't know that what she did was a crime. She had seenher fair share of people that did not know anything about the law, but she had never met someonewho was as ignorant as Cynthia. Sonia looked at Cynthia with a helpless expression. “Officer, pleasetell her if it is a crime!” “Sure.” The male police officer who had kept quiet nodded his head and tooka step forward.

“Ms. Stone, you did commit the crime of intimidation. If you'd only had someone cast an image onMs. Reed's window once or twice, then yes, you could still say it was a prank. But it's different whenyou do it several times in a row—that's considered purposeful intimidation.” “Yes, especially in themiddle of the night. Any normal person would be extremely startled if they saw a skeletonappearing on their windows in the middle of the night. They might fall to the ground from beingstartled, or even get mental disorders from this!” Carl only stared at Cynthia in disdain. Toby glancedat Sonia's lower abdomen and then said, “And let's not forget that Sonia is pregnant. Your

little “prank’ may cause her to miscarry.

Can you afford the consequences?” That was his child. Sonia could choose not to bear it, but otherpeople would never have the right to decide his child's fate. Cynthia should be glad that the childwas okay. Otherwise, he would never let the Stone family off easily. That being said, seeing thatSonia still hadn't aborted the child, he wondered if she was planning on keeping it. Thinking of this,Toby was suddenly filled with joy and expectation. He was excited for their child to be born. Thebaby must be very cute. Also, the most important thing now was, maybe for the child's sake, shewould forgive him and get back with him again! “I didn't intimidate her! I did not plan to hurtanyone!”

Cynthia suddenly shook her head and backed away, her face full of fright. “I just wanted to scareher. I have never thought of causing her to have any mental disorder or have a miscarriage. Besides,isn't she okay now?” Saying that, Cynthia pointed at Sonia. “Look, she is fine! So what proof do youhave to say that I have committed a crime?” Carl furrowed his eyebrows, and just when he wasabout to speak, the corners of Sonia“s mouth twitched sarcastically as she took the lead in speakinginstead. “In this world, there are always people who think that they didn't do anything wrong justbecause the victim was fine. It's such a pity that I don't buy this at all. Officer, what do you thinkshall be the punishment for her?”

The officer thought for a while and replied, “In fact, what she said was right. Although she didcommit the crime of intimidation, you did not suffer any injury. So her punishment will not be tooserious and she will not go to jail. She might get detention; as for the length of detention, we haveto wait for further notice.” As soon as Toby heard this, he squinted his eyes. It was unclear what hewas thinking. Sonia nodded slightly. “Okay, then lock her up first, and let me know when you get theinformation.” “Of course!” The officer responded with a smile and was about to go forward tohandcuff Cynthia.

Cynthia did not want to be detained, so she quickly backed away, even attempting to escape.However, just as she was about to take a step, Carl stretched out his foot. Just like that, Cynthiatripped to the ground and was caught by the police officer. Cynthia knew that she couldn't escape;her face was pale with fright, and tears were streaming down her cheeks. She hurriedly looked atSonia. “Sonia, I'm sorry. I now know what I did was wrong. Forgive me, please. I don't want to bedetained again. Please, I'm sorry...” Cynthia burst into tears, looking extremely pitiful.

However, none of the people present sympathized with her. Sonia looked at her coldly. “Why wouldyou do something you'd regret? We're all adults here, and adults should be responsible for theiractions. Besides, I don't think you're really remorseful. You're just afraid of being detained, so youhad no choice but to admit your mistakes. In fact, in your heart, you still don't think that you didanything wrong. Am I right?” Sonia lowered her head and brought her face closer to Cynthia.Cynthia met her eyes, which seemed to be able to see through people's minds. Crying profusely, hereyes wandered away with a guilty conscience. She choked on her words and couldn“t form a propersentence. Sonia curled her lips mockingly.

“Look. You can't answer me. It seems I'm right!” Cynthia's lips moved, as if she wanted to saysomething, but in the end, she didn't manage to utter a single word and only lowered her head, as ifshe had given up. The officer took her away and brought her to the interrogation room with Davinas he had to make a detailed confession about the incident. As the person who submitted the policereport, Sonia could leave and come back after Cynthia's trial was over. “Sonia, let's go,” Carl said toSonia. Sonia nodded. “Okay. Let's go back.”

At this moment, Toby also said to Sonia suddenly, “I'll leave later. I still have something to do.” Carlsquinted while looking at him with obvious dissatisfaction. “President Fuller, it's your businesswhether you leave or not. It has nothing to do with us, so there's no need for you to inform us atall.” Sonia nodded, agreeing with Carl's words. Toby's eyes darkened. After a cool glance at Carl, hereturned his gaze to Sonia, and his voice softened. “I have something to tell you.” “What is it?” Sonialooked at him suspiciously. “It's not convenient to talk about it here—let's go over there.” Tobypointed to the corner. Sonia frowned slightly, looking somewhat unwilling. Toby noticed it and tookher arm directly.

"Come with me!” With that, he was going to pull her over. As soon as Carl saw this, his expressionbecame cold, and he stretched out his hand to take Sonia's other arm. “Sonia, don't go.” BeforeSonia could reply, Toby's eyes fell on Carl's hand, and his voice was cold. “Let her go!” “You shouldbe the one letting go! You are the one who is the least qualified to touch her here!” Carl didn't letgo, but instead tightened his grip on her arm while looking directly at Toby. Toby was irritated bythese words. His face sank, and his whole body exuded coldness. Carl also didn't plan to let go.

The two men looked at each other in a standoff—their gazes were equally as intimidating. After awhile, Carl's aura was gradually suppressed by Toby. After all, he was not like Toby, who hadweathered through battles in the business world and had developed an extremely oppressive andsuperior aura. Therefore, Carl was quickly subdued. After being subdued, Carl's expression wasmenacing, and his heart was filled with the urge of wanting to destroy everything.

This caused his grip on Sonia's arm to tighten more and more, as if he was about to squeeze Sonia'sarm off. “Ouch!” Sonia suddenly frowned and cried out in pain. She looked down at Carl's hand andsaid quickly, “Carl, let me go. You're hurting me!” Hearing this, Carl, who was on the fringe ofmadness, suddenly regained his senses and realized what he had done. Immediately, his pupilsshrank, and he quickly apologized.

“Sonia, I'm sorry!” As soon as he was about to let go, Toby grabbed his hand away from Sonia’s arm.“Are you okay?” Toby asked with a concerned expression on his face while looking at Sonia. Soniasaw the worry in his eyes and looked away. “I'm fine.” “Let me see.” Still a little worried, Toby tried toroll her sleeve up.
