This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 775 I Can Always Pay Them Off

This was precisely the reason behind Sonia’s sudden outburst at the parking lot earlier when she so harshly put Anya in her place. I’m not some pushover who would just smile and nod while some other woman tries to steal my man! Hah! As if I would back down without a fight. She crossed the line, and she had to reap what she sowed!

More importantly, if she had just watched from the sidelines while the woman in the wheelchair tried to get close to Toby, it would only be proof that Sonia didn’t love Toby enough or respect their relationship enough to defend them.

Presently, while Toby had no idea what was going through Sonia’s head, he was still a little guilty after hearing what she had said. He reached for her wrist and pulled her into his arms.

Just like that, Sonia found herself lying in his lap.

She made to get up, but he pressed on her shoulder and kept her in a prostrate position. He stroked her hair gently as he muttered, “You won’t become a shrew or a hysterical creature, and I would never betray you either. I wouldn’t ever make you feel insecure. Didn’t I just say that my heart only has enough room for you? Well, in that case, you won’t have to be bothered by any other woman who tries to get between us, because I have my own ways of weeding them out and getting these eyesores out of your sight. I’m sorry I let my guard down this time.”

Having said this, he frowned.

She flipped so that she lay with her back flat against the seat. Looking up at him, she reached to smooth out his frown and responded, “I do feel a lot better now that I have your word that you’d weed them out at first sight, but you were wrong about the whole letting-your-guard-down thing because there was no way you could have seen this coming. You saved Anya by having Tom drive into the hedge and she had her eyes on you ever since. You were also unconscious when she provoked me in the hospital room, so there was nothing you could have done about that. No, you didn’t let your guard down and none of this was your fault. It was obviously Tom’s.”

Tom, who had been driving while eavesdropping and enjoying these tidbits, froze at once. He hadn’t thought that he would suddenly become the subject of conversation.

Almost immediately, he sensed a murderous gaze fixed upon the back of his head and he warily glanced into the rearview mirror to see that it was Toby staring at him mutinously, his eyes devoid of any warmth.

Tom shuddered, and all the color drained from his face as he smiled sheepishly, “Isn’t Miss Reed hilarious, President Fuller? Surely none of this was my fault.”

“Of course it was your fault,” Sonia said with a small huff. “I asked you to get that woman out of the hospital last night, yet she turned up today like nothing happened! And you’ve known since last night that she was pining after Toby, but you never told her off either.”
