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

Chapter 1196

Chapter 1096

The Harper Family was definitely one of Seafield's wealthiest families and had a reputation in the area because of its links to the transportation industry.

At least, they were more influential than the Lore Family.

Also, the Young Master of the Harper Family was also the second grandson who constantly made headlines for his ignorance and incompetence.

Some of his actions were even against the law.

Whenever there was anything that involved the young master's breach of the law, the Harper Family would intervene and have a word with the media outlets to prevent them from releasing such news.

Due to the influence of the Harper Family, most media outlets naturally agreed to their request and would instead actively suppress the news.

Squirrel Media, on the other hand, was different; it would proceed to report the news with no consequences whatsoever.

For that reason, if Squirrel was unafraid of the Harper Family, would they be frightened of the Lore Family, which shared a similar standing?

Not to mention, the person in question was the family's young lady with no influence of her own.

Who would believe such news?

Mitch was on the ground in tears, but he was once again stunned after hearing Sonia's words.

He never expected that Sonia was aware of his situation to a tee.

As a result, his earlier words had no credibility and merely sounded ridiculous.

However, it did not mean that Nicholas would throw in the towel.

Now that Toby had a firm hold on him, he knew that it was impossible to make a comeback and intended to admit defeat.

Yet, who would have expected that he would run into Sonia at such a place?

Women would always be more soft-hearted than their male counterparts. As long as I have a chat with Sonia, maybe I might have a way out.

So, no matter what, he did not want to lose this opportunity.

As he thought about it, Mitch cheered for himself before he spoke, "Miss Reed, I know that you'd find it difficult to understand how I was convinced by the young lady of the Lore Family to do what I did. I had no choice, though. The Lore Family and President Fuller have an extremely close relationship, which was why I didn't dare to ignore Miss Lore's words. If you don't believe me, Miss Reed, you can ask President Fuller about his relationship with the Lore Family."

He couldn't care less; he had to give it his all.

Sonia raised her hand. "I don't have to ask. I'm aware that Toby and the Lore Family have a relationship akin to a master and pupil. Miss Lore's young enough to even be considered Toby's niece."

"Yes, that's right. Miss Lore can be considered as Toby's niece, which was why she threatened me. If I didn't dare to do it and offended President Fuller. As a result, I—"

"But don't you forget!" Sonia squatted and lowered her head to look at Mitch with a cold gaze. Then, as she cut him off mercilessly, she continued, "Lynette Lore may be Toby's niece, but I'm Toby's lover. So if you dare not go against Lynette for fear of offending Toby, yet you're brave enough to help her attack his girlfriend? Don't tell me you're not worried about offending Toby?"

Mitch's expression changed as he broke out in cold sweat.

Officer Chase and two policemen, who were all present at the scene, looked at him with contempt.

"I-I… I never thought that f-far…" It took Mitch ages before he could stammer a reply with trembling lips.

He was telling the truth; he had indeed never thought far.

Back when Lynette gave him a call and used her grandfather's connection to Toby to plead with Mitch to help her with something, she even said that Mitch did not need to fear offending Toby. Her grandfather was Toby's master, so she definitely could protect Mitch from the consequences. As long as Mitch agreed, she would then pay him five million.

The idea of receiving five million greatly tempted Mitch, and since he had someone to back him up, it was a done deal.

After that, he ignored the fact that Sonia was Toby's girlfriend. He utterly forgot that messing with her was akin to offending Toby.

As Sonia observed Mitch's astonishment, she rose to her feet. "Did you forget that I'm someone important in Toby's heart? My position is about the same as his master's. That must be the reason why you did what you did. Still, it's such a pity that you had the wrong idea. Compared to Mr. Lore, Toby cares more for me. You see, Toby had personally delivered you here, but no one from the Lore Family, especially Lynette, came to save you from this mess. She didn't even call you at all, which shows that she has completely given up on you. Do you know why? It's because Toby is about to go against the Lore Family. So, the Lore Family can't afford to save you."

Mitch's eyes widened. "President Fuller wants to go against the Lore Family?"

"That's right. I believe you'll see the news reports that Toby has taken action on the Lore Family in due course." There was a smile on Sonia's face as she said those words gently.

When he saw her smiling like that, he felt that he was seeing the devil. Her words that Toby wanted to go against the Lore Family kept ringing in his head.

If Toby wanted to attack the Lore Family, it meant that they had stepped on his bottom line and angered the man himself.

That was why he refused to let even his master's family off the hook.

In short, forget about Mitch; the entire Lore Family was in a precarious situation now.
