This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 678 Jessica’s Suspicion

Sonia didn’t for a second doubt Tim. She could hear how angry he was, but she knew that he had swallowed his fury for her sake; otherwise, he would have told her to come to the hospital with a body bag for Jessica instead of informing her about Jessica’s hysterics.

Rubbing the divot between her brows, Sonia apologized, “I’m terribly sorry for troubling you, Dr. Lancaster. Rest assured that I’ll get her to pay for the damages she has caused in the hospital.”

Sonia would take a cut of Jessica’s share dividends as compensation for the damages and she didn’t care what Jessica might think of it. After all, such reparations were a natural consequence of Jessica’s tantrum.

“And what do we do about her?” Tim asked, leaning into his seat insouciantly. “Are you going to let her out of the hospital? Because if you don’t sign off on her discharge, I’d have to ask someone to give her a strong sedative and have her in complete isolation.”

“No, there’s no need for that,” Sonia responded with a shake of her head. “Let her out. The longer we keep her in the hospital, the more she’ll grow suspicious. If she were to figure out that we’re up to something, she’d cause trouble for us.”

“It won’t matter even if she does figure something out, though,” Tim pointed out. “The microchip embedded into her forehead wound has already been activated; she could go anywhere and we’d still be able to track her down, wouldn’t we?” His spectacles glared under the lights as he added, “And we can always lock her up and force her to have the baby.”

He spoke so lightly of such horrific crimes that it was plain to see he had neither fear nor respect for the rule of law. Sonia, however, was already used to his somewhat sociopathic disposition and she was not alarmed by his direct choice of words. In fact, she thought his idea was a rather merciful one compared to his usual suggestions of murder.

Alas, she shook her head and turned down his idea, saying, “No, I haven’t found the DNA sample for the child’s father, so we’ll have to wait. Just let her out of the hospital for now, and don’t worry about her absconding because she won’t. She’ll still try to come after my shares and she won’t leave until that mission is accomplished. Besides, even if she were to run, her microchip has already been activated and we can track her down anytime and lock her up. I don’t think there’s anything else for us to worry about.”

Jessica had injured her forehead after Sonia made her bow before their father’s grave the last time. Shortly after that, Toby had asked for a tracking microchip to be made and asked that Tim slip it into the wound on Jessica’s forehead while treating it.

Having done so, they would have access to Jessica’s location at all times and there was nowhere in the world she could hide from them.
