Chapter 96

Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again

Back in the venue of the press conference, Sonia continued to target Cynthia as she went on, “Miss
Stone posted about me pestering my ex-husband after our divorce, being a third wheel in President
Fuller and Miss Gray’s

relationship six years ago, as well as forcing President Fuller to marry me. I would hereby declare that
except for

the final point, everything she said is false!”

The crowd was surprised as soon as they heard her statement. A journalist stood up and asked, “Miss
Reed,



does this mean you really forced President Fuller to marry you?”

“Yes.” Sonia looked at the journalist before nodding in admission.



On the side, Charles was all jittery. “Darling, what are you talking about?” Is this something that you
should be

announcing in public?

Meanwhile, Toby, who was in Fuller Group’s office, couldn’t help but frown. Even Zane couldn’t fathom
Sonia’s



decision. “Although it is true, isn’t she worried that the onslaught of public opinion might just lead to
Paradigm

Co.’s downfall if she admitted to it just like that? Toby, what the hell do you think she has in mind?”

Zane raised his head to glance in Toby’s direction, only to see the latter wordlessly pulling his lips into a
thin line.

Meanwhile, Tina was also watching the live broadcast in Gray Residence. Seeing Sonia admit to
threatening

Toby brought a smile to her face, for she assumed that Sonia was digging her own grave.

Back on the scene, Sonia remained impassive despite the fact that the press were buzzing with
excitement. She was aware of the consequences of bringing her past actions to light, but she had no
regrets.

The journalist followed up with another question. “Miss Reed, why did you do that?”

“Why, you ask?” Sonia lowered her gaze before replying with a cool voice, “Because I love him.”

Toby’s pupils shrunk, and his body straightened subconsciously. He knew he was the person whom she
loved, for

he had witnessed it in her gaze during the past six years. However, he didn’t expect her to actually open
up about

her feelings for him. While rubbing his fingers together, pleasure filled his heart.

However, the euphoria didn’t last long, for it was dissipated by what Sonia said next. As Sonia stared at
the camera, she declared, “But that was a long time ago, and I no longer love him now!”



can

Toby’s expression changed slightly, panic surging within him as if he had lost something. At the side,
Zane whistled. “Toby, do you think what she said is true?”

“It has nothing to do with me, be it true or false!” Toby clenched his fists, his voice cold and hard.

Aware of Toby’s dishonesty, Zane smiled cheekily. “Is that so? From what I can see, you don’t look like
it.”

“Go get your eyes checked.” Toby glowered at Zane.

Zane shrugged. “Okay, I guess I’ll shut up.” With that, he hung his head low and continued watching the
live

broadcast.

Meanwhile, the journalist asked again, “Miss Reed, despite your love for President Fuller, isn’t forcing
him to

marry you by holding the fact that you saved Miss Gray against him crossing a line? Besides, President
Fuller was already with Miss Gray back then, so-”

“As I said earlier, I never stepped in between them. Those are just baseless rumors.” Already knowing
what the

journalist was about to ask, Sonia cut her off while holding the mic up. “It’s because I had no idea back
then that

they were together. When I was in university, I asked Miss Gray about her relationship with Toby. The
reply she



gave was that she saw Toby as her brother, which was the reason I went after President Fuller. As for my
request

for him to marry me…”

Sonia took a deep breath. “I admit that it’s not the right thing to do. Back when I saved Miss Gray after
she got

involved in an accident, President Fuller asked if I had any requests. When I told him to marry me, he
agreed to

that, so that’s what ended up happening. If…”

“If?” The journalist pressed for answers.

Sonia raised her voice. “If I’d known back then that they were together, I would’ve never made such a
request. As

someone who hails from a prestigious family, I’m not one to stoop as low as interfering with other
people’s



relationships. My pride and honor would never allow me to do that.”

“Does this mean that she never knew about your relationship with Tina?” Zane looked toward Toby in
surprise.

Similarly, Toby was in shock, as what Sonia told the public affected him greatly. He knew Sonia was
Tina’s roommate when they were in uni, so he had assumed that she was aware of Tina’s relationship
with him. Therefore, the fact that she insisted on marrying him was the reason he hated her so much.



However, he never thought of the possibility that Sonia never knew he was Tina’s boyfriend. By that
point, Toby

pulled his lips into a cold, thin line. Why did Tina not admit that I was her boyfriend, and opted to tell
Sonia that she

saw me as a brother?

At the same time, Tyler was also watching the livestream after training with the national team ended.
When he

heard what Sonia said, a look of shock was written all over his young face.

“What? Sonia didn’t know about Tina and Toby’s relationship?” Tyler yelped in surprise. “If that’s the
case, it means I misunderstood Sonia!” He gripped on his phone tightly while watching Sonia on the
screen with a look of guilt in his eyes. It was because he assumed that Sonia was a third wheel in Toby
and Tina’s relationship that Tyler despised her, but it turned out that everything was a misunderstanding.

“Besides.” Sonia rubbed a finger in between her brows before continuing, “I was merely proposing the
idea of marriage to President Fuller, and wasn’t expecting an affirmative response from him. After all,
we were strangers back then. Hypothetically speaking, nobody would agree to marrying a stranger just
like that.”

“Yeah!” The journalists present in the venue and the audience watching the livestream nodded
subconsciously. If

a stranger were to propose to any of them, they would never agree to it. In fact, they would consider the
one who proposed a nutjob.

“But didn’t President Fuller agree to it in the end?” the journalist said.



Sonia pursed her lips. “Yes, he did. I was stunned yet elated then. Despite knowing that he didn’t love
me, I

married him happily, because I thought he would come to love me. However, I was dead wrong. I was
married to

him for six years, only to fail miserably at touching his heart.”

“Aren’t things bound to turn out like that since President Fuller had always been in love with Miss Gray?”
the journalist questioned.

Sonia nodded. “Yeah, he loves Tina, but my past self had no idea. Therefore, I led a harsh life during the
past six years. I even wondered why he didn’t turn me down directly if he didn’t like me. I would’ve never
forced him into a marriage.” Sonia wasn’t an overbearing person, so she wouldn’t insist on marrying Toby
if he’d turned her down

then.

Upon hearing that, the crowd finally understood the situation. Yeah, since President Fuller didn’t love
Miss Reed, he could have turned down her request. Miss Reed wasn’t holding him at gunpoint. Why did
he not turn her down?

Zane was curious as well. With his chin resting on his hand, he observed Toby. “She’s right. Why didn’t
you turn her down?”

Toby lowered his gaze to hide the emotions it contained. Back then, I was indeed going to turn her down,
but I

somehow agreed to her proposal when I met her gaze. When I snapped back to my senses, it was
already too late.



“By the way, I bet all of you must be interested in learning more about my married life.” Sonia swept a
glance at

the crowd. Upon noticing the nods in the crowd, Sonia smirked. “Let me tell you all about my blissful
marriage. I

had to endure my husband’s silent treatment, my mother-in-law’s pedantic nitpicking, and my brother-in-
law’s incessant fault-finding with me. How does that sound? Wonderful, isn’t it?”

In the ensuing silence, people were seen wearing an awkward expression on their faces. Blissful? That
sounds

more like hell.

There were even comments in the livestream. ‘So Miss Reed had been enduring the silent treatment. It
seems that President Fuller isn’t that nice of a man either. To treat Miss Reed like that despite the fact
that he married her, he sounds like a typical scum!
