Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 1092

"What?! The party who should've won the case ended up losing the case and was even sentenced to prison?!" Sonia

was in disbelief and felt a little dizzy at such a reversal of events.

Freddie nodded. "Yes. Mr. Flingburt could even make an ordinary civil dispute case end up receiving a sentence.

Hence, one can imagine how lethal the man could be. Apart from this, there's another case. This case involved

fraud. Party B turned to Party A and loaned 100,000 bucks, but they didn't repay the money within the stipulated

time. For that reason, Party A brought Party B to court in the name of fraud and also hired Mr. Flingburt to act as

their attorney."

"And then what? Did the party win the lawsuit?" Sonia guessed.

Unexpectedly, Freddie shook his head. In addition, Toby, who was beside her, even had a trace of a smile in his

eyes.

Sonia saw it, so she couldn't help but urge, "Freddie, hurry up and tell me, please. I'm really curious."

"Okay." Freddie stopped placing her on a cliffhanger and continued. "In this lawsuit, the lawyer hired by Party B is

just a trainee lawyer, plus they're the ones who avoid paying their debts. So logically speaking, Party B is definitely

on the losing side.

However, for some reason, Party A eventually angered Mr. Flingburt, making him turn his coat and extend his help

toward Party B. So in the end, not only did Party B not have to repay the 200,000 that they owed, but Party A also

had to bear the cost of the lawsuit."

Sonia was utterly speechless by such a dramatic turn of events.

She only regained her voice after a long while. "He could actually turn the table like this?"

"That's right." Freddie took another sip of tea. "In short, Mr. Flingburt has a splendid record not only in the legal

industry but also in your business world. If you ask him for help in the lawsuit and do not offend him, the final result

will definitely satisfy you. Even if the judge's verdict is in line with the laws and regulations, Mr. Flingburt can even

request the judge to resentence as long as you feel the conviction is light. The punishment after the re-sentence

will be a lot heavier than the original sentence. Moreover, there was indeed a similar case that had taken place

before."

"How so?" asked Sonia.

Freddie glanced at Sonia as he replied, "For example, in the past two years, the crime committed by a criminal

suspect wasn't particularly malicious, and the suspect was eventually sentenced to ten years in prison according to

our country's laws and regulations. Nevertheless, the victim's family wasn't satisfied with the conviction and felt the

punishment was too light. Thus, they hired Mr. Flingburt, and the final conviction was changed from ten years in

prison to twenty years under his manipulation. What's more amazing was that the initial life sentence was

commuted to a death penalty."

Sonia exclaimed in astonishment, "He's so amazing. It's no wonder that you all say that people in the social circle

like to hire him when it comes to lawsuits. With his undefeated record and his ability to achieve the employer's wish

and satisfy the employer fully, It's no wonder that people in the circle are all protecting him. After all, it's a loss to

lack such a talent."

"That's right." But, this time, it wasn't Freddie who responded. Instead, it was Toby. "I thought about poaching him

over to Fuller Group before, but he declined my offer."

"What? He actually rejected an offer from the dignified President Fuller? Wow. He's got quite a personality for doing

what he wants to do without caring what others think." Sonia looked at Toby with a smile.

"Yeah, he's got quite a personality." Toby raised his chin, agreeing with Sonia's statement.

Sonia tilted her head as she inquired, "Were you not angry when he declined your offer?"

Toby laughed softly before replying, "What's there to be angry about? He's talented, but that doesn't mean I'm

incompetent without such talent. That's why I didn't have the intention to force him to work for me when he

rejected me in the first place. Besides, everyone has the right to choose. I can choose to hire him, so naturally, he

can also choose to work for me. Therefore, if he's unwilling to work for me, it's only normal that he would refuse to

accept my offer. So, likewise, I won't feel ashamed or annoyed by him about this matter."

"President Fuller, your magnanimity truly impresses me," Freddie praised him sincerely as he looked at Toby. After

all, one must know that the rich are people who are arrogant and have great pride. They've been standing in high

positions for too long and are used to being flattered as well as fawned by others. Therefore, the word rejection

definitely doesn't exist in their dictionary. From their point of view, if they think highly of a certain someone and hire

them to work for them, the other party should suck up to them and give their consent. In fact, they even expect the

other party will gratefully accept their offers rather than refuse. Plus, if the other party refuses, they'll think that the

other party is looking down on them and even feel that the other party is making a fool out of them. So they'll be

enraged about it and may even attempt to destroy the other party's career. It seems like only in this way can they

vent the anger deep within them. I'm not making these slanders out of thin air, though. They're based on facts I'd

often observed while working as a civil servant.

For that reason, he felt utterly shocked when he heard Toby say that everyone had the right to choose, and it was

very normal for the other party to reject him, as well as it was unnecessary to get angry about this matter.

A sense of admiration came shortly after such a shock. It's no wonder President Fuller could outperform those

bunch of old businessmen in the business world at a young age and bring Fuller Group to the pinnacle. His open-

mindedness and magnanimity alone aren't something that those narrow-minded wealthy people in the circle can

compare.

Truthfully, it wasn't just Freddie who showed his respect for Toby at this moment; Sonia, too, gave Toby a thumbs up

after she heard what he had said.

As Toby looked at Sonia's fair and soft thumb, the gaze in his eyes darkened. Suddenly, he reached out, put Sonia's

thumb on his lips, and kissed it. Well, she's the one who presents it straight to me. It'll be my loss if I don't kiss it.

Both Sonia and Freddie were struck dumb by Toby's abrupt action.

When Freddie returned to his senses shortly after, he immediately lowered his head, feeling too awkward to even

look at the intimacy displayed by the couple sitting opposite him. Still, deep down, he was reprimanding them

secretly. Oh, come on! What's up with these two? How can they publicly show their affections in front of me when

we're discussing important matters now? Also, where do they think this place is? We're now at the police station, a

place with such a solemn atmosphere. How can they actually... actually...

Although the expression on Freddie's face became livid and pale at the same time, he didn't dare to raise his voice

at the two of them. I can't help it. These two, they're highly influential figures, and I can't afford to offend either of

them. So, what choice do I have? Well, I can just choose not to look.

Meanwhile, on this side, Sonia also almost immediately snapped back to her senses as she quickly withdrew her

hand from Toby's grip and instinctively looked at Freddie.

When Sonia saw Freddie lowering his head and playing with the teacup in his hand, pretending like he didn't know or

see anything—a trace of embarrassment suddenly appeared on her face. It's as clear as day that Officer Chase has

seen everything. That's why he's pretending as if he sees nothing at this moment. Darn it! This makes me feel even

more embarrassed! It's all this dirty dog's fault! He is always taking advantage of me whenever and wherever he

can. I have asked him not to behave in such a manner in public or in front of others countless times. Does he know

how embarrassing this feels? Yet, he never seems to listen to me. He just keeps doing it regardless of what I say. So

now, I don't even want to waste my breath on him any longer.

After Sonia glared at Toby, she forcefully kept a smile on her face and looked at Freddie. "Uh... Officer Chase."

Freddie looked up when he heard his voice. Then, he let out a cough before saying, "Miss Reed, you two are done?"

As he spoke, he looked at Sonia and then at Toby.

The moment Sonia heard Freddie's question, her face flushed even more as her embarrassment reached its peak.

As for Toby, he shamelessly acted as if nothing had ever happened. He didn't even respond after he gave Freddie a

dispassionate glance.

Sonia inhaled deeply as she resisted the urge of wanting to rub her heated cheeks and replied bashfully, "I'm so

sorry, Officer Chase, for making a fool out of ourselves in front of you just now. We—"

"No, no, it's fine." Freddie hurriedly waved his hands. "I understand that it's normal for the two of you to have a

good relationship."

"Then... thank you, Officer Chase, for your understanding." Sonia's lips twitched in awkwardness.

Freddie once again let out a dry cough against his fist. "Uhm... Let's continue our discussion from earlier, Miss Reed,

shall we? Where were we?"
