Chapter 819 Don’t Wish to Trouble Him

“Anything strange?” Sonia straightened her back and frowned. “What do you mean?” she asked tentatively.

She couldn’t understand why Toby had asked this question.

In the court, Jessica had indeed said something weird to her—she asked if Sonia would like to know who her biological parents were.

Could this be what Toby was referring to?

On the other hand, Toby naturally perceived the doubt in Sonia’s tone too. With downcast eyes, he responded calmly, “I’m asking whether Jessica said nasty things to you or threatened you in court.”

“Oh, so this is what you’re referring to by ‘strange words’.” Sonia’s knitted brows smoothened as she heaved a sigh of relief inwardly.

She actually thought there was something that he didn’t want her to find out.

Toby pressed his lips and said, “Yeah. What else did you think I’m referring to?”

“Nothing. I overthought.” Smiling, Sonia waved her hands about and continued, “Of course she said nasty things to me. You knew how much Jessica hates me. How could she possibly not be agitated upon seeing me?”

Toby hummed in response, “That’s true. Besides that, did she do anything else to you?”

Sonia shook her head. “Not really. She actually almost dashed over to rough me up, but there were court officers at the scene and she was handcuffed, so I’m very safe.”

“Good.” Toby nodded slightly as he could finally stop worrying.

Although he did not ask Sonia directly whether Jessica told her about her biological parents, he could deduce from the conversation earlier and from Sonia’s calm tone that Jessica most likely did not.
