This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1199 A Good Teacher and Student

That point was certain. Those assumptions, however, were based on the fact that those tutees were not Sonia. For

Toby, Sonia was always an exception.

When facing her, he was always a gentle person. Even when his current identity was her teacher, he still taught her

gently and patiently.

At first, Sonia was worried that he would think she was stupid if she could not understand what he was teaching

before gradually losing his patience. After all, the man before her was not a patient person and she was very clear

about that.

Therefore, she had been feeling uneasy and was listening apprehensively throughout the session because she was

afraid that he would think of her as unteachable and ended up giving up the whole tutoring session altogether.

She could deal with the awkwardness, but it would be difficult for her to further her studies as she would have to

find another tutor. However, she was proven wrong in the end. That was just my overthinking.

In reality, Toby was very patient with her. Whenever she failed to understand something, he would not get impatient

with her. Instead, he would explain it to her repeatedly, break up the topic into subtopics, and explain everything to

her until she understood. What shocked her was that he did not even show any signs of anger.

Gradually, Sonia realized that he would never think that she was stupid or be impatient with her, so the

apprehension she felt slowly dissipated.

Perhaps, she felt more relaxed because those emotions had dissipated, and she even found it easier to learn those

facts. She also found that after his explanation, she could understand some parts of those points she did not

understand in the beginning.

After that, Toby picked up the pace and Sonia learned many new things she did not know before.

In conclusion, Toby was a good teacher and she could understand what he taught.

She was grateful to him.

Today’s session also made Sonia feel more at ease about the private tutoring sessions that would be happening in

the next half of the year.

When she decided to further her studies and thought of taking the entrance exam half a year later, she accepted

Toby’s suggestion to find a private tutor.

Although she accepted his suggestion, she still felt uneasy about the tutoring session that was going to happen. She

was not worried about Toby’s capability. On the contrary, she had never doubted his professional capabilities in this

field. After all, all his doctorates were not just for show. Once she fully became his tutee, he would definitely

succeed as a tutor.

Yet, the one she was worried about was herself.

She had never learned anything about managing a company; whatever knowledge she had now was knowledge she

learned herself after managing Paradigm Co. for a few months. In other words, she was not even a qualified

newbie but merely a person who knew bits and pieces about this industry and could handle a few easy documents.

As for those more difficult documents, like what Toby was currently teaching her, she would not be able to handle

them on her own. She would have to consume a lot of time and ask many questions to be able to deal with them.

To put it frankly, she could not deal with them on her own, and that could be a very fatal flaw for any chairman of a

company.

She got so far because she was lucky that no one had tried to deceive her. Although she had not done anything

wrong with those documents, if she had, Asher would have grabbed the chance and done everything he could to

suppress her.

If that had happened, her employees would not have stood by her side and spoken up for her because those

documents involved a large amount of capital, and these capitals were their salaries. Therefore, they would not be

able to accept a chairman who could not deal with company affairs.

It was the same for Sonia as well because she would also wonder if the company would collapse, thanks to such an

unreliable leader.

She believed that many of the employees had that doubt in their minds. Even she felt that the company could still

stand to this day because the heavens pitied her. Otherwise, with a leader like her managing this company, it would

have been long gone.

So, she had to learn, further her studies, and become stronger and better. This was not only being responsible for

herself but also for Paradigm Co. and the hundreds of thousands of employees.

Otherwise, if Paradigm Co. collapsed, what would happen to those employees who had to provide for their families

and survive?

That was why she did not refuse Toby’s suggestion but was very grateful and excited instead.

After all, with someone like him as her tutor, she might even wake up smiling because this was something others

could only dream of.

Moreover, his assistance would greatly increase her chances of being able to attend business school. She would not

be exaggerating if she said that she had already been given the chance to be a student at that point.

Of course, in the midst of her happiness, there were hints of uneasiness.

She was afraid that if she did not know anything, then it would be difficult for her to pick up her learning pace,

which would make teaching her a difficult task for Toby. Subsequently, he might think she was stupid for not

understanding anything he taught her and eventually give up on her.

However, after the short session they had earlier, she found that she had been overthinking everything. She was

not that stupid nor was he like what she had imagined. He did not think she was dumb or became impatient to keep

teaching her.

On the contrary, he taught her very seriously, carefully, and patiently.

Regardless of the repeated explanations in the beginning, he would not get frustrated with her. Instead, he would

consider if his method of teaching was wrong, then change to one that would work. After doing so, she was able to

understand what he was teaching and a flash of realization would appear in his eyes.

It was as if he was certain that there was a problem with his teaching method. Ultimately, she was not afraid of

letting him teach her in the future.

As she thought of that, she lightly exhaled and a smile appeared on her face.

Meanwhile, Toby was busy organizing the documents they had been dealing with earlier when he noticed her

sudden smile. He raised an eyebrow and gently tapped her head while asking, “What are you thinking about? You’re

smiling so happily.”

Although she did not feel any pain from the tap, she subconsciously covered the place he tapped before turning to

him with a smile. “Nothing. I just think that you’re such a good teacher. I was worried I might be too dumb and

you’d become frustrated.”

“Why would I?” He organized the documents into a stack by the side. “Why do you think I’ll get frustrated because

you’re inexperienced?”

“It was just a thought. I couldn’t understand anything in the beginning and you had to repeat it many times before I

got the gist of it. Even I think of myself as a dumb person, let alone other people.

So, not getting frustrated while teaching me already takes a lot of patience. After all, that was the situation students

who were bad at studying faced back in school, and I was worried I might face the same situation, but

unexpectedly, you didn’t treat me like that. So, of course, I’m smiling happily.” As she spoke, she looked up at him

with eyes that were filled with gratitude.

Yes, gratitude. She was grateful that he did not treat her like her teachers had treated the weaker students at her

school. Otherwise, she would have felt embarrassed and it would have made her feel like she was useless.

“Don’t worry. Even if I treat others that way, I will never treat you like that. Moreover, I think that there is no such

thing as a dumb student. If students don’t understand something, it’s not because they are stupid but because the

method of teaching isn’t suitable for them.

So, if someone is really stupid, it must be the teacher and not the student. The teacher can’t even find a method of

teaching that suits the students, so what else could the teacher be besides being stupid?

That’s why I kept finding the problem in myself and not in you when you can’t understand what I was teaching.

Therefore, you can rest assured that what you fear will never happen.” He touched her head while looking at her

with his most reassuring gaze.
