Chapter 45
Don’t you have a home to return to?” Sona scanned his face and noticed that his right cheek was
swollen. He must have gotten into a light again. “Are you seeking sce here after getting into a fight?”
“You’re my sister-inw.”
“Former sister-inw.”
“Well, even if you’re divorced, you’re still
my sister-inw!” Tyler stubbornly insisted, “Hurry up and open the door. Then, make me something to
eat. I’m hungry!”
“Gosh, why don’t you keep your mouth shut?” She opened the door and dragged
him into the house by keeping a tight grip
on his cor. Then, she took out the first aid box and applied antiseptic on his reddened and swollen
cheek. After she’d dressed his wound, she took some ingredients from the fridge to cook dinner on the
stove for the two of them. In the
end, she had whipped up two main dishes
and a soup
While Tyler ate his dinner, Sonia asked, “Did you get hurt by saving a damsel in distress?
“No.” He took a bite of his food before he
replied in a muffled voice, “My mom
pped me.”
Sonia was stunned by his answer.
Throughout her six years with the Fuller
Family, she evidently saw how Jean had
doled on Tyler and amodated each one of his whims. All this while, Jean had alway’s referred to
him as her baby and rever spoke to him with a harsh tone. Besides, Sonia had never seen Jeany a
finger on him at all.
After Sonia ate a slice of apple, she asked again, “I thought your mom dotes on you. Why did she p
you?”
Tyler frowned in response. “She told me not to go out and have fun all the time. She
wanted me to learn from Toby and to work
at the Fuller Group soon, but I’m not
interested in running thepany. I like
ying basketball! What’s wrong with that
anyway?! I ended up having a row with her
and she pped me in anger.”
As Sonia could imagine the scene where
couldn’t suppress herughier.
He red. What’s so funny?!”
“When I was reprimanded by your mom in the past, didn’t you used to gloat by the side?” she asked, “I
can’t believe that there would be a day where your mom would actually p you! Am I not allowed to
show my sympathy?!”
Meanwhile, Tyler was quite speechless.
After dinner, he willingly cleared the table
and did the dishes. Then, he took a set of
skincare products from his backpack and
handed it to her. Although he looked like
he wanted to appease her, his tone
remained quite brash. “I used three
months’ worth of pocket money to get this
for you. ept this gift ande to my school this Saturday!”
Sonia picked up one of the bottles and checked out the brand. It was a well known product and the cost
of a moisturizer was close to five thousand, which meant that this entire set was worth approximately one
hundred thousand.
At first, she had assumed that Toby had popped by because he had nowhere else to go, but it finally
dawned upon her that
he had an ulterior motive for his visit
today. “Go and find Toby if you need help
settling any mischief.”
“I did not get into any mischief.” Tyler shot
her a look before he continued in a
lowered voice, “The coach for the national team will be here this Saturdav to select
yers to join the team for training at the base camp, if I pass the tryouts, Then I’ll be able to join the
national team. However, they need to discuss this with my guardian…”
Sonia finally realized what he was after and she immediately rejected, “No! I no longer have any
rtionship with your family, so I can’t get involved in this..
Besides your mom wants you to join Fuller
Group and assist with the running of the family business in the future. She’s
definitely going to ughter me if I help
you enter the national team.”
Tll take full responsibility if anything goes
wrong. I definitely won’t implicate you!” He
raised his right hand and swore an oath.
“Sonia, you’re the only one who can help
me.”
I know I used to
b e in a nude manner tawid you in the past and was disrespeciful, but that was because ! thought that
you bullied Tima and was trying to take her spot in Tony’s heart Besides, Mor kept onining about
you, so I naturally didn’t have a good
impression of you…”
“Well, it seems that you’re quite happy to
Have Tina as your sister-inw. You even
shared the story about my tattoo with her.”
She was quite annoyed upon recalling that “Why don’t you go and look for Tina then? I’m sure she would
be more than happy to
help you.”
“Huh?” Tyler was stunned for a moment. “I
never told her that you had a tattoo!”
Sonia fixed her eyes on him. “Are you sure
that you didn’t say anything to her?”
She replied, “If you didn’t say anything, how would she have known about it?”
“I think she might have eavesdropped while I was talking on the phone,” Tyler replied with quilt: “I spoke
on the phone
and asked my ssmate whether it hurt to
get a tattoo done. Iined about you
by saying that you were overly obsessed
with Toby to the point of getting a tattoo of
his name on your body. That’s all I said.”
“You’re such a brat!” Sonia stared at him
with a dry smile. “Well, I’m quite sure that
you’re Madam White’s biological son.
There are no doubts about that.”

“What do you mean by thai?”
You’re exacily like her. Both of you have the same mean disposition and you can’t control yourself from
bad-mouthing
others.” The look of scorn in her eyes was
quite evident. You’ve somehow inherited
all of her faults that Toby managed to
avoid.”
Tyler’s face flushed bright red as he was
angered beyond speechlessness. He was
about to rebuke her and share his positive
traits when the cell phone on the coffee
table rang. The moment Tyler noticed on
the caller ID that it was Toby, Tyler felt his
heart sinking
Sonia had noticed it as well and she
immediately tapped to answer the phone
call before she ced it on loudspeaker before Tyler could respond. “President
Fuller, did you make this call because you realized that your little brother’s missing?”
There was a short pause on the other end
before a low male voice rang out”Tyler
meet me at the South Entrance in three
minutes.”
*Toby, I can’t make it there in three
minutes!” Tyler eximed but he didn’t
dare to oppose Toby, “She lives near the North Entrance”
“Two minutes.” Toby’s voice sounded
colder than before.
