This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

that the child is mine?

His heartbeat raced as he tightened his grip on the mouse. It was obvious he was nowhere near calm at

that moment.

Tom wasn’t surprised by the sight. It’s obvious that President Fuller still cares for Miss Reed. Now that he

has received news that she is pregnant, he definitely wouldn’t be able to keep his cool.

While Tom pondered, Toby suddenly stood up. “Is there any way to know who the father is beforehand?”

“Yes, by removing the amniotic fluid, but it carries a high risk of miscarriage. Why do you ask, President

Fuller?” Tom was curious.

Toby didn’t reply. Instead, his frown deepened.

Upon seeing his boss’ expression, Tom suddenly had a wild guess as his eyes widened. “President

Fuller, are you suspecting that the child might be yours?”

Toby glanced at him before slightly nodding to confirm the man’s guess.

Tom was speechless. They even did that the day before their divorce… Color me impressed.

“Is there any other way besides taking the amniotic fluid?” Toby asked while looking at his assistant.

Since removing the amniotic fluid presents great risks, I won’t let Sonia go through that.

Tom shook his head. “There’s none. Other methods would require the child to be born first.”

Toby’s thin lips formed a straight line; he was obviously expressing dissatisfaction at this piece of news.

While carefully examining Toby’s reaction, Tom asked, “President Fuller, don’t be so anxious. What if the

child isn’t yours but President Lane’s?”

Upon hearing that question, Toby’s expression darkened as a heavy air hung around him.

Even though he was well aware that the child might not be his…

He still felt annoyed at the thought of the child being someone else’s.

Toby pulled at his tie and answered in a low voice, “Send someone to keep an eye on Sonia and try to

investigate who fathered the child.”

“Understood.” Tom nodded in response before he turned to leave.

Toby was once again left alone in the office.

He placed a hand to his forehead and squinted his eyes as thoughts of Sonia’s pregnancy whirled

around in his head, rendering him unable to focus on the work at hand.

When it was time to get off work, he finally stood up and grabbed his jacket that was hanging on the back

of his chair before he walked out of the office.

Toby didn’t return to the Fuller Residence, but he drove over to Bayside Residence instead.

In truth, he wasn’t even sure why he came. By the time he finally returned to his senses, he had already

arrived at the place.

After parking his car near Sonia’s apartment, Tyler remained in the car.

Instead, he rolled down the window to light up a cigarette and take a puff.

The smoke drifted upward and formed a veil over his face. As a result, the reduced visibility had given

him a temporarily mysterious aura.

Boom!

A loud thunder rang in accompaniment to the lightning flashes across the sky before the strong winds

started to pick up too.

Soon, huge droplets of rain pattered down and drenched the road in seconds. Some of the droplets even

managed to get past the car window and landed on Toby’s shoulder.

Toby frowned and tossed the cigarette butt away before he rolled up the window. He proceeded to open

the car door to head for the apartment building.

Sonia had just finished her shower and she was seated on her couch, enjoying the warm air from the

heater while comfortably reading a book on energy.

The doorbell suddenly rang.

“Huh?” She turned her head around in curiosity to peek at the door. Who’s here at this hour?

Sonia closed the book and rose to her full height. Then, she walked toward the door and opened it

before she raised her eyebrows in surprise. “It’s you?”

The one standing at the door was none other than Toby.

He had obviously been in the rain, for his hair was wet and gathered in clumps while his shoulder was

damp as well.

His face was also slightly pale, perhaps due to the cold.

Sonia had never seen him in such a state before. For a moment, she felt nothing but surprise at the

sight.

“It’s me,” Toby answered in a slightly hoarse voice. Then, he reached up to pat away the droplets of

water that had settled on his shoulder.

As Sonia could hear the difference in his tone compared to his usual voice, her eyes sparkled slightly

before it returned to its normal gaze. “What’s the matter? If you’re still trying to convince me to let Tina off

the hook, you can leave.”

“No, I’m not here for that.” Toby bit his lip.

“Oh,” she answered suspiciously. “Why are you here then?”

Toby didn’t say anything as he lowered his gaze onto Sonia’s stomach.

It was still flat and tight; it was difficult to imagine that there was a tiny life growing inside her tummy.

A tiny life that he might have had a hand in planting.

He was strangely pleased at that thought, which caused his gaze at Sonia to deepen.

She didn’t know what he was thinking, but she knew he was behaving oddly. So, she took a step

backward. “What are you looking at?”

Toby’s thin lips moved, as if about to say something, but he suddenly felt a dizzy spell overwhelm him as

he staggered.

In the end, he had to hold on to the door frame for support.

Sonia also realized that something was wrong with him. His pale face had reddened and even his eyes

had lost its focus.

“Hey, are you all right?” She reached out with a hand and waved it in front of Toby.

Toby slightly lowered his head, but he didn’t reply.

Sonia could hear his breathing quickening and since she thought that he was under the weather, she

placed a hand on his forehead.

He froze and raised his eyes to look at her. “You—”

“You’re burning!” She interrupted with an exclamation.
