This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

The culprit had been apprehended by the head of security. The perpetrator was an ordinary-looking man,

and at the moment, there was a pair of gloves stuffed into his mouth to prevent him from speaking. Even

so, the look on his face was menacing enough to make anyone’s skin prickle in fright.

Sonia had no idea who he was, much less why he held such a wicked grudge against her. That didn’t

matter, though, because everything would come to light as soon as the police took over.

Meanwhile, the reporters not too far away had witnessed the entire incident as well as the audience

watching the livestream. They were all mortified by the shocking turn of events.

They didn’t think that someone would throw acid at Sonia. A dramatic event like this would only ever

occur in soap operas, and yet here they were, bearing witness to it in reality. Before long, they came to

the collective consensus that they must spread this groundbreaking news as quickly as they could.

On the other side of the parking lot, Sonia paid no mind to the crowd of bustling reporters and returned to

Toby’s side. Her brows were knitted tightly together as she gazed at his hand, and the look in her eyes

was one that rivaled a growing tempest.

“Give me your keys,” she demanded hastily. “I have to drop you off at the hospital and I can’t drive my

car.”

Toby met her gaze and answered, “The keys are in my left pocket.”

She grew exasperated at his vague instructions, which were redundant and a waste of precious time,

given how she was in a rush to get him to the doctor. “Do you mean the pocket of your pants or your

coat?” she snapped.

He could tell that Sonia was frustrated. Since he did not dare to dawdle a fraction longer, he answered

forthrightly, “Pants.”

After having gotten the exact location of his keys, Sonia rubbed the divot between her brows and

reached into the left pocket of his pants.

Toby stiffened at this. He didn’t think she would actually reach for the keys herself. Seeing that his left

hand was completely fine, he had assumed that she would allow him to get the keys out for her.

Presently, he was acutely aware that her hand was reaching deep into his pocket, and he could feel the

softness and warmth of her paw through the thin fabric. His skin tickled where her fingers brushed over

it. As a result, his thigh muscle twitched involuntarily and his gaze darkened.

Sonia felt this as well, and it was only after she met his dark, piercing gaze that she finally realized what

she was doing.

Crap, I just shoved my hand into the pocket of his pants without thinking! She blushed all the way to the

tips of her ears and she quickly grappled for the keys before withdrawing her hand. She looked the other

way in embarrassment and averted his gaze. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to do that.”

She had been in such a hurry to grab the keys that she didn’t know how bold she was until it was too

late.

Toby, on the other hand, swallowed convulsively and responded hoarsely, “It’s fine. Don’t dwell on it.”

Her eyelashes fluttered slightly at this and she hummed in response after a second.

That was how Toby knew she was still dwelling on it. He sighed a little and swiftly changed the subject.

“Did you get the keys?”

“I did!” Grateful to move on from the embarrassing incident, Sonia opened up her palm to reveal the car

keys with the Maybach logo embossed on it.

He nodded. “I leave the driving in your capable hands.”

“Okay, but as for that man over there…” A freezing look passed over her delicate face as she glanced at

the culprit, who was kneeling on the tarmac as the head of security held him in place.

There was an insidious gleam in Toby’s eyes as he asked slowly, “Seeing as he came for you, what do

you want to do with him?”

“Send him to the police station,” Sonia replied coldly. “I want to know exactly who put him up to this!”

She had a feeling that Tina was the mastermind. The timeline made sense; the man had launched the

acid attack soon after Tina’s scathing livestream, which painted Tina as the most likely suspect.

It was obvious that Toby had the same thought as Sonia. He narrowed his eyes into dangerous slits and

agreed, “Very well. I’ll have my guards send him over to the station in a while.”

Sonia hummed curtly in response. She pressed the key in her hand to unlock the car doors, and after the

both of them entered the vehicle, she drove out of the parking lot without further delay.

Along the way, she called up Daphne and asked that Daphne make a copy of the security footage from

the parking lot and have it delivered to the police station.

The security camera would have undoubtedly recorded the footage of the man hurling acid at Sonia and

that was enough evidence to warrant his arrest.

After she hung up the call with Daphne, she dialed for the police and told them that she would be running

late.

Given that she was only considered a person of interest and not an actual suspect in Tina’s assault

incident, the police were reasonable enough to allow the delay.

While this was happening, Toby sat in the passenger seat and kept his eyes on Sonia throughout. There

was a look of admiration in his dark orbs as he watched her speak calmly with the police officers at the

station and he had to admit that she had changed a lot since the days before their divorce.

She had grown into a polished and all-around capable woman.

As she sensed Toby’s gaze on her, Sonia put down her phone and curiously glanced at him. “What are

you looking at?”

“Nothing,” he replied with an amused smile.

She couldn’t help but feel that he was acting in a strange manner, but she did not press further. Since

she had a car to maneuver, she fixed her eyes on the road once more without sparing her injured

companion another thought.

A few minutes later, she parked the car at the side of the road and announced, “We’re here. Let’s get out

of the car.”

Toby unfastened his seatbelt with one hand and peered out the window. “This isn’t the hospital.”

“It’s a clinic. The hospital is too far away and your hand is already trembling in pain, so I figured this is

the best option we have,” Sonia explained as a matter-of-factly. He nodded and pushed the door open before he

stepped out of the Car
