This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1141 Absurd Words

Sonia glanced at Grayson coldly as she spoke. “Although you said you were here to apologize, I don’t see you

bringing Lynette, let alone some apology gifts. Moreover, you are ill-mannered. Is this how you apologize to

someone? If I didn’t know better, I would have thought you were here to ask for a protection racket.”

At this moment, Grayson’s assistant, who stood behind him, subconsciously nodded. That’s right. I knew this would

not end well when I saw Mr. Lore coming out empty-handed earlier. I advised him to bring some gifts along, but he

just wouldn’t listen, and there was nothing I could do about it. Mr. Lore deserves to be scolded by Miss Reed.

However, despite the fact that Grayson’s assistant sided with Sonia’s words, Grayson himself was unhappy with it.

He squinted his eyes at her and said darkly, “Apology gifts? From your perspective, am I asking for a protection

racket instead of apologizing to you?”

Sonia smiled faintly and said, “Although you are not, your attitude makes it seems like it. With all due respect, I

don’t see how you are apologizing, Mr. Lore. I still stand by my words; apologize like you mean it. You are here

because Toby dissociated himself from your family, right?”

As he listened to her words, Grayson gripped his knuckles and didn’t say anything. However, his expression said

otherwise.

“I guess so.” Sonia crossed her legs and leaned against the armrest. “It has been forty-eight hours since this matter

happened. However, you guys never contacted me to apologize. It was only when Toby kept clear with your family

that you decided to come and apologize. This shows that you are here by force. Not only that, your attitude is

terrible, and there aren’t any apology gifts. I can see that you are not being sincere.”

When she spoke, her tone was calm as if she was talking about the weather. However, her sarcastic words were like

needles piercing into Grayson’s heart, exposing his true thoughts out in the open.

At that moment, Grayson’s expression was ugly, and he gripped the armrest even tighter. If it weren’t that he was

still rational and knew that he hadn’t made his point, he would have stood up and left.

To him, even if he was thinking about it, no one should ever say it aloud. Sonia should have pretended not to know

and accepted his apology. After all, he was an elder to her! It was so frustrating since she wouldn’t oblige him.

While Grayson was trembling from either frustration or embarrassment, there was a hint of mockery in Sonia’s

eyes as she looked at him.

Then, she opened her mouth and said, “I’m only an ordinary person, Mr. Lore. I like to be more realistic. Since you

are here to apologize, I would advise you to bring Lynette over and ask her to apologize to me in person while you

prepare some gifts that will satisfy me. Lastly, I hope you two can be well-mannered and bow to me. By then,

perhaps I’ll look over the part where you guys made a mistake and had not disciplined Lynette well. Simply put, I will

not accept your apology this time. Please come by again when you are all set.” Then, she picked up her cup, asking

him to leave.

When Grayson heard her request for gifts and bows, he was red from anger. “You’re being greedy, Sonia. Your

desire is hideous for asking for gifts, our bows, and wanting Lynette to apologize in person,” he snapped.

“My desire is hideous?” Sonia frowned and sneered. “Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Lore. The Lore Family are the ones

who are supposed to apologize to me, not the other way around; I’m not the one begging for your forgiveness.

Since it’s an apology, you should make it seem that way. Don’t come here alone, empty-handed, and be arrogant

about it. Also, don’t tell me to let you guys off the hook after such a lackluster apology. With that being said, you are

causing trouble here rather than apologizing. I haven’t seen anyone apologize in this manner before. If I were you, I

would have called the person firsthand and apologized to them for my mistake. If they don’t accept it, I would go to

their doorstep with gifts and repeatedly apologize until they forgive me. This is the way to apologize to someone. I

cannot say the same for you, though.”

Sonia lifted her chin and looked at him in disdain. “How shameless of you to come here empty-handed and tell me

to let go of this matter. I wonder where you got the confidence from, assuming I will forgive you when you have

brought nothing and only said sorry.”

When Grayson heard her reprimand him, there was a hint of guilt in his eyes.

Sonia put down her legs and stood up, closing into him. “Tell me, Mr. Lore. Why are you so confident about this

matter?” she asked again.

Under these circumstances, Grayson’s ego probably couldn’t take it anymore, and he decided to go all out. The

man took a deep breath and stared at her. “What else? I am an elder to you. Given the relationship between the

Lore Family and the Fullers, you should forgive Lynette’s behavior and put in a good word for us to Toby.”

“What?” Sonia was startled upon hearing his reply. When she snapped back to her senses, she was furious. “An

elder? Your relationship with the Fuller Family?”

“That’s right.” Grayson raised his chin and looked proud of himself.

When Sonia saw his reaction, the smile on her face vanished. “What kind of elder are you to me? Moreover, it’s

none of my business about your family’s relationship with the Fullers. Why should I endure this and forgive you

guys, even putting in a good word for the Lore Family to Toby?”

“Who says I’m not? Don’t forget that I am the same age as your father, Henry. Of course, I am also your elder. You

should call me uncle. Even if you don’t, you should call me your senior as I have been in the business world twenty

years earlier than you.” As he spoke, he was getting more proud.

“Secondly, Toby is my father’s student. A teacher for a day is a father for a lifetime. As such, my family can be

considered as Toby’s family. If you want to be with him, it’s only fair that you flatter us. Otherwise, we will cause

trouble for you, damaging your relationship with Toby.” At that moment, he looked at Sonia with excitement and

madness.

Listening to his words, Sonia laughed. In fact, she burst into a fit of laughter while clutching her stomach.

When Grayson saw her laughing, his heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling in his gut.

“Why are you laughing?” he asked while gritting his teeth.

After laughing for a moment, Sonia wiped the tears from her eyes and said, “I see! Just when I was wondering why

you were so confident, I finally figured out why. In terms of seniority, you are indeed my elder. However, as long as

I refuse to admit it, you are nothing to me. Furthermore, we are not blood-related. Yet, you tried to make me

compromise with your age. Have some shame, Mr. Lore.”
