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

Chapter 896 – Connor’s Terms

That was not important, however. What was important was when Connor brought Toby’s mother up, Sonia could see that the love in his eyes was genuine. So he still loves her? But so what?

He cheated on her even though he said he loves her. She’s gone now. Pretending like she’s your greatest love means nothing. The only one who thinks it means something is you. People like me and everyone else think you’re as disgusting as a piece of rat poop in the bathroom’s corner.

She was starting to get lost in her thoughts, but Connor started talking. He spun his thumb ring and gave Sonia an apologetic smile. “Sorry. I’m at that age now. I love to reminisce. You guys must think I’m a drag.”

Sonia forced a smile. “Not at all, Mr. Salzburg, but it is time we talk business.” In other words, she was telling him to cut the crap and stop talking about his past. She had no interest in it, and she was disgusted by it.

Connor got what she said, of course. His smile did not waver, though it had become mirthless. He extended his hand to Xander, and Xander whipped out an arm-length walking cane from nowhere.

He handed it to Connor with two hands. Connor took it and tapped it on the ground, putting both his hands on the top of the walking cane, which was adorned with a dragon’s head.

Now that he had his walking cane, Sonia could feel the air change. He was finally looking like the head of a family, and there was an air of a leader about him. He was no longer a simple scholar. So this is what he looks like when he negotiates, Sonia thought. She pursed her lips and got on guard.
