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

Chapter 542 Repaying His Deeds

Jean had never imagined Toby would favor Sonia over her. She couldn’t believe that if it came down to it, she would lose to Sonia.

The revelation struck her like a bolt of lightning. In a daze, she plopped down on the couch with a hollow look in her glistening eyes.

Toby’s gaze darkened at the sight of this. He waved his hand mutely to have Tom wheel him upstairs, and the latter hurried to do as told.

It didn’t take long for the both of them to arrive in the upstairs hallway. Tom opened Toby’s bedroom door and wheeled him in, saying, “Aren’t you worried that you might have hurt Madam White’s feelings with what you told her?”

Toby parted his lips and pointed out impassively, “Some things just can’t be avoided. It’s for the best if I let her know how much Sonia means to me; otherwise, she would never dial back on her unjust hostility and continue to mess with Sonia.”

“That’s true,” Tom agreed, nodding.

Presently, Toby took out the Ocean’s Heart from his pocket. “I’m going to need some cleansing solution.” The necklace had been worn by Jean, and he hated to give it back to Sonia without first cleaning it thoroughly.

“Right away,” Tom said solemnly, instantly catching on to what Toby intended to do. As such, he headed out the door to get the cleansing solution ready.

Owing to Jean’s vast jewelry collection, the staff at the Fuller Residence practically stock-piled bottles of jewelry-specific cleansing solutions. Tom needed to only ask one of the servants to get a large cup of it, which he immediately brought up to Toby’s room.

Toby had him place the cleansing solution on the desk, and when that was done, he dunked the Ocean’s Heart into the liquid. It took only seconds for the solution to turn murky, and Toby used a long glass rod to gently stir the Ocean’s Heart while it soaked in the solution, giving it a thorough cleansing.

Tom, on the other hand, stood to one side with a towel in hand as he watched the cleaning process.

It was only after the solution had turned clear once more that he walked up to Toby with the towel. “Here you go, President Fuller.”

Toby took the towel and placed it on the desk; then, using a pair of tongs, he retrieved the Ocean’s Heart from the cup of solution and laid it on the towel.
