This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

“It’s not that long. About half an hour,” Charles answered, taking out his handkerchief and wiping away her sweat in concern.

Blinking in surprise, she asked, “Half an hour? I thought you guys reached way earlier than that.”

“Uh…” he uttered and chuckled awkwardly. “Well, we could have reached the top very early at first, but it’s all Tyler’s fault. He went on the wrong path. So—”

“What do you mean it’s my fault?” Tyler argued in a huff. He had just walked over and overheard Charles speaking badly about himself. “You’re the one who resorted to dirty tricks and pointed out the wrong way to me because you couldn’t beat me in speed.”

Snorting smugly, Charles said, “Even if I tricked you and pointed out the wrong path to you, you still went on it anyway. Just how dumb are you?”

“You!” Tyler hissed, holding his fist angrily.

Holding her forehead, Sonia interrupted, “That’s enough, both of you. Stop arguing. You’re giving me a headache.”

“I’ll massage you, darling. You’ll feel better after that.” Charles paced behind her and rubbed her temples as he spoke.

Seeing the situation, Tyler mumbled, “Bootlicker.”

Hearing him, Charles replied in an equally hushed voice, “Some people aren’t even fit to be a bootlicker.”

The edge of Sonia’s lips twitched, and she was speechless at the sight of an adult and a teenager arguing like children. “If both of you are going to continue fighting, then get away from me and let me have some silence by myself.”

“No more fighting. We’re not fighting anymore, darling,” Charles assured hurriedly.

Tyler nodded as well, indicating that he wouldn’t argue anymore. Indeed, both of them held on to their words and quieted down, and Sonia was finally able to have some peace.

Despite that, something suddenly hit Tyler a few minutes later. Looking down the mountain, he asked, “By the way, Sonia, where’s my brother?”

“He’s behind us,” she answered casually.

Charles sniggered. “A strong man like him can’t even beat two ladies in a hike and is taking so long to reach the top. He’s really useless.”

“That’s nonsense. It’s not my brother that’s the problem, but Tina, for sure. She must be the one who’s slowing him down,” Tyler explained on behalf of Toby indignantly.
