This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1016 Wavering Thoughts

The business world had a tolerant side, but it was also cruel. If a person wandered around in the business world without anyone to protect them, they would be eaten alive sooner or later.

As Charles’ tone was solemn, Sonia bit her lip and looked at him. After a while, she asked in an uncertain voice, “Do you really think I should rely on him?”

“It’s not about what I think.” Charles shrugged. “But, since you have this resource, why don’t you use it? I know that you don’t use it just because you can’t accept the feeling that you aren’t capable and need to depend on others to achieve something. You think that you’ll be inferior to Toby, and that your relationship with him would be imbalanced, which is why you refuse to rely on him for his help.”

Sonia was silent. Indeed, this was the biggest reason why she didn’t want to rely on Toby. In her opinion, she was the only one she could rely on in this world, and others could only help her temporarily, but not for a lifetime. If she depended on Toby with all her heart now, what would she do if they broke up one day, or if he got tired of her asking for help all the time and refused?

People who were used to relying on others would gradually lose their ability to handle things on their own. As she didn’t want to end up that way, she hated the thought of going to Toby for help at the first sign of trouble.

Similarly, another reason was because she really didn’t want to hear others refer to her as Toby’s woman instead of the chairman of Paradigm Co. whenever they brought up the company or her name.

When that happened, she always felt that she was like Toby’s accessory, and that her name was always tied to his instead of being an independent person. When others talked about her, they would always think of Toby first, not her.

Secondly, she would feel uncomfortable every time she asked Toby for help, and she truly felt worthless, as if she were inferior to him. Over time, her mental state would start to deteriorate, and she wouldn’t even be able to recognize herself. Hence, due to these various reasons, how could she be willing to ask Toby for help?

thing that came to mind when anyone looked at her was that she was the chairman of Paradigm Co.

She didn’t want people to ask her if she was Toby’s lover whenever they saw her and look past all of her other capabilities, making her achievements worthless compared to the title of being Toby’s lover!
