This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

“That’s right. The mastermind is the actual culprit who has been hiding for twelve years without anyone

ever discovering a single lead on him until recently.”

“What’s the lead about?” Toby clenched his fists.

“That person seems to know your mother.” Tom looked at Toby, seemingly noticing the need to clarify his

words as he added, “And I’m not talking about Madam White. I’m talking about your biological mother.”

“My… My biological mother!” Toby’s expression changed. This mastermind knew my mother and killed

my father. What on earth is going on? “What evidence do they have to prove that the murderer knew my

mother?” He fixed his gaze on his assistant.

Soon, Tom nodded. “The evidence is a picture of your mother. Ever since you were caught in that traffic

accident, the investigation team took a long time before they were able to find and bribe the driver who

knocked you down. After some time, they managed to get their hands on the security footage of the

entire Seafield, through which they successfully identified the target’s residence. However, that person

was nowhere to be found by the time they sent someone after him.”

“After that?”

“Then, the investigation team proceeded to do some digging about the house and discovered that it was

owned by someone else. Thus, they approached the owner and found out that the house was rented to

three people.”

“Three people…” Toby pursed his lips.

Tom then continued to say, “According to the owner, two of the tenants called the other one ‘Boss’. Thus,

if I were to venture a guess, the boss was probably the same person who killed your father and

orchestrated the car accident you were caught in. Meanwhile, the reason why I think this person knew

your mother was because the investigation team searched the house and found a picture of her.

Besides…”

“What else do you know?” Toby demanded with a dark look.

Tom took a deep breath and responded, “There were a few words found written on the back of the photo

that read—I will avenge you! Those words were written so hard that it almost tore the picture apart. Thus,

it was deduced that the actual culprit must have been in a good relationship with your mother, which was

why he killed your father to avenge her.”

“Avenge her?” Toby was seen with a bitter look. “Are you saying my parents shared a bitter history

between them?”

“N-No, of course not. That’s not what I meant. After all, it was a mere guess,” an embarrassed Tom

clarified with a smile.

At the same time, Toby clenched his fists, looking down to mask the coldness in his eyes. Deep in his

heart, he knew there was nothing bitter between his parents since they were not in love with each other

in the first place. In fact, they were only together because of the pre-arranged betrothal. Subsequently,

when Toby’s mother fell pregnant, his parents began sleeping in separate rooms and became spouses in

name only.

When Toby turned 12, his father met Jean, but his mother wasn’t mad about that at all. Instead, she even

supported the man’s decision to be with Jean and even put in a few good words for her in front of Rose,

attempting to convince Rose to accept Jean. By doing so, Toby’s mother would be able to divorce his

father and realize her biggest wish because she used to carry Toby in her arms and tell him that she

wanted to leave the Fuller Family to live her own life.

Unfortunately, Toby’s mother had an emotional breakdown one night before she could divorce his father.

She drowned her sorrows with alcohol that night and strangely threw a tantrum in the Fuller Residence

while murmuring complaints about a man who stopped waiting for her and betrayed her love.

At that moment, Toby finally understood his mother’s indifference toward his father and her desire for a

divorce because she was in love with another man, but he had fallen for someone else. Unable to accept

the harsh truth, she committed suicide the next day by slitting her own wrist. Thus, he was sure that his

mother’s death had nothing to do with his father, which was why he found the killer’s motive to avenge

his mother absurd and laughable. Moreover, the culprit had also tried to kill Toby, which made him

wonder whether there was something personal between his mother and this mysterious person.

“Please tell the investigation team to find out more about my mom’s lover before she married into the

Fuller Family,” Toby instructed with a pair of glacial eyes.

Tom adjusted his glasses and asked, “President Fuller, are you implying that the murderer could be your

mother’s former lover?”

In fact, he had already known a thing or two about the matter related to Toby’s mother. Thus, he could

tell that Toby ordered him to investigate his mother’s former lover because Toby suspected the murderer

was this person. Furthermore, Tom also agreed with his boss’ deduction since it was likely that the

former lover of Toby’s mother was jealous and mad at Toby’s father for separating them. Well, if that

murderer reckoned President Fuller’s father was the one who caused his mother’s death, that should

explain his motive to kill Old Master Fuller. Why was he onto President Fuller as well? Perhaps I’ll still

need to do some digging about that.
