Home / Romance / Boss, Your Wife''s Asking for A Divorce, Again!
Seeing that he had understood what she said and had admitted his mistake, Sonia let it go
immediately.
Waving her hand, she muttered, "It''s fine as long as you don''t do it again. But why did you do that just
now?"
"Because I''m overjoyed," Toby replied, his lips curved.
"Overjoyed?" She casted a sidelong nce at him. "What are you overjoyed about?"
"Your promise." The curve on his face widened. "You said you will not leave me as long as I do not
betray you, regardless of the difficulties you face. That means you''ve promised not to leave me forever,
as I will never do you wrong. That''s what makes me so happy."
While saying this, he slightly puffed out his chest, appearing confident and even smug.
If he wasn''t a human, Sonia could almost see his tail wagging behind him.
Does that really make him so happy?
She smiled and shook her head. "No matter how happy you are, you shouldn''t stop the car anywhere
you like."
"Don''t worry. I''ll hug and kiss you in a safe ce next time."
That instantly made her blush. "I''m not referring to that! What I mean is that you must ensure your own
safety. Safety. Not taking advantage of every opportunity to hug or kiss me!"
Toby patronizingly nodded, but he clearly didn''t take it seriously.
Of course he would pay attention to his safety.
But hugging and kissing her was also a priority!
After all, he had to fight for such opportunities.
He couldn''t very well expect her to take the initiative, could he?
Seeing his patronizing demeanor, Sonia knew what he was thinking and was amused by the man.
Forget it. Let him think whatever he wants, she thought.
He wouldn''t take anything she said seriously anyway.
They conversed happily the rest of the way to the police station.
Meanwhile, Titus and Connor were in deep trouble.
Toby''s revenge had finally been exacted, and Titus was the first to experience it.
Titus and the investigation team were leaving the conference room, and both parties stood at the door.
Titus shook his hand with Chief Dup, the leader of the investigation team. With his sickly face and a
warm smile, Titus said, "It''s been hard on you, Chief Dup."
"Not at all," Chief Dup replied smilingly. "You''re the one having a hard time, President Gray. Thank
you so much for bringing us around for the past few days despite your poor health. We''ll feel bad as if
your physical condition deteriorates."
"Don''t mention it at all," Titus courteously replied. "This is mypany. Of course, as the president, I
have to show you around and brief you on the issues at hand. After all, I am in charge of Triforce
Enterprise. The investigation will conclude tomorrow, and I will rest well after that. There''s nothing to be
concerned about."
"Thank you for saying so, President Gray. We''re all done for the day, and we''ll head back to our hotel
first. Let us not disturb your rest any further." Chief Dup drew his hand back and continued, "You
don''t have to send us off. President Gray. Goodbye."
"Let me send you all downstairs," Titus said while gesturing them the way.
At that, Chief Dup didn''t say anything further. He nodded and led the way, with Titus walking beside
him.
Their subordinates followed them from behind.
The group then proceeded to the elevator.
Just as they were about to enter the waiting area for the elevator, they heard a sound resonating from
it.
It was a shocked voice that said, "What? Our president once kept the copse of a mining cave a
secret?"
"Not the copse," another voice echoed, correcting the previous person. "What was hidden was the
actual death toll. The copse of the mining cave was too major to be concealed. Hence, the only thing
he could hide was the number of people who died as a result of the incident. I heard it from someone
else too. ording to him, one of ourpany''s mining caves had long reached the standard for
closure and should no longer be used for mining. But because our president refused to find another
quarry for that, he broke the rules and continued to mine that cave. As a result, the cave was over-
exploited, making it too hollow to sustain itself, and the entire mountain eventually copsed after a
heavy rain, bringing the cave with it and killing arge number of people."
"Oh my, is this true?"
"Of course! Why would I joke about such a matter?"
Titus, who was standing outside, couldn''t take it any longer and was about to charge in with his fists
clenched to prevent the two of them from continuing their conversation.
But just as he was about to move, someone tugged his arm.
He turned around to see Chief Dup''s arm on his.
"President Gray, what do you n to do?" Chief Dup questioned with a narrowed gaze as he looked
at Titus. Though smiling, his smile did not reach his eyes. Currently, his gaze was tinged with coldness
and scrutiny.
Titus broke out in cold sweat when faced with Chief Dup''s question. He panicked, and his heart was
pounding so hard that he felt pain.
Even his subordinates behind him became uneasy and lowered their heads, as if they didn''t see Titus,
however, didn''t realize his subordinates'' actions as he did not dare to look around under Chief Dup''s
stare.

With that, he forced a smile, suppressed his panic deep within his heart and put on a calm front. "Chief
Dup, my employees are talking gibberish. I need to put a stop to their nonsense. Could you..."
He then lowered his head to look at Chief Dup''s grip on his arm.
His intention was obvious; he wanted Chief Dup to let go of him.
Chief Dup, on the other hand, pretended not to understand what Titus meant. The smile on his face
remained as he said, "What are you anxious about, President Gray? Let us continue to hear them out
before deciding whether what they say is gibberish."
He had been in Seafield for quite some time, but he hadn''t found anything useful in Triforce Enterprise.
The only thing he got were some minor blunders that the country could live with.
Though he was a government official, he was still amoner.
Wealth was idolized bymoners, and he was no exception. Chief Dup had always wanted to look
into more problematicpanies for his own benefit, as well as to improve his work performance.
But Triforce Enterprise was so clean that he couldn''t find anything. As a result, he couldn''t im any
credit. This had already made him unhappy.
Hence, now that he had finally learned something negative about thepany, he would not let
anyone ruin it.
He would not let anyone prevent him from achieving his expected performance.
Titus had no idea what Chief Dup was contemting. However, from the coldness emanating from
Chief Dup''s eyes, Titus could roughly guess what was on the man''s mind.
He was determined to prevent Titus from interfering with the employees who were speaking.
At this moment, anxiety and hatred filled Titus'' heart.
He was anxious as to why the elevator wasn''t here yet. Once the elevator was here, the two
employees would stop talking.
And he hated them for bringing that matter up, among all other things.
Most importantly, they did so right when Chief Dup was nearby.
Aren''t they obviously putting me in trouble?
Now that Chief Dup had heard about this, Titus would be in big trouble, as what the employees said
was true. If Chief Dup decided to look into the incident, Titus would never be able to escape this
unscathed.
The more Titus thought about it, the paler his face became. He appeared as if he was about to pass
out at any moment.
In fact, he wished he could just pass out on the spot.
Perhaps doing so would alert the two employees inside and cause them to stop talking.
And he could probably get away with it.
