This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 1405

Chapter 1405Chapter 1405
Charles got up and headed for the door.
Soon, he was out of the ward.
Toby and Mary looked up when they heard the door opening.
"How did it go, Mr. Lane?" Mary's hands were clasped together as she asked worriedly, "Did you
manage to persuade Young Mistress Sonia?"
Toby didn't say anything, but his eyes were fixed on Charles as he waited to hear the answer.
Charles shook his head. "I don't know. I've said all that I could, but she hasn't come to terms with it yet.
It was indeed a huge shock to her. She'll need some time to think things through. Still, I think she took
in most of what I said. At least, she won't be doing anything rash or foolish. Time will heal the rest. Just
leave it to her. I'm sure she'll come round soon enough."
Mary sighed a little disappointedly.
On the other hand, Toby wasn't surprised.
Sonia wouldn't have taken that attitude with him if she'd been able to come to terms with the situation
and forgive him this quickly.
"It's fine. You've tried your best. All that matters is she won't do anything foolish now. Everything elsecan come along at its own pace," Toby said.
Charles paused in thought before suggesting, "Let's see how things go tomorrow. If she's still the same
tomorrow, I'll get my mother to come over. She'll probably get over it sooner if my mother talks to her
about it too."
"Thank you." Toby nodded at Charles.
"Don't act as if I'm doing this for your sake," Charles retorted. "It's not for you. I'm just doing this for
Sonny's sake."
"I know," Toby said with a smile. "But what you're doing will speed up the process of reconciliation
between her and me, so I still want to thank you."
"Whatever." Charles shrugged. "It's getting late. I should get back. I'll keep my phone on tonight so if
anything happens to Sonny, make sure you call me. Don't think about hiding anything from me just
because of my feelings for her in the past."
"I won't." Toby shook his head.
Even though he still felt uncomfortable with Charles who was once his rival for Sonia's affections, he
was not the type who'd get jealous without thinking about the situation.
He knew that Charles wasn't just Sonia's old admirer. He was her childhood friend and someone who
was like a brother to her. Sometimes, Charles could do things that he might not be able to despite him being her husband.
At times like these, Sonia needed all the companionship and consolation she could get, and he knew
he needed their help.
Therefore, he wasn't going to object to Charles' presence now.
"Good. I'm leaving now." Charles glanced at the ward one last time before heading for the elevator.
"I'll walk him out, Young Master Toby," Mary said out of the blue.
"Alright," Toby acknowledged.
Mary hurried after Charles.
Toby kept standing at the door and looking in through the little window.
Unfortunately for him, the hospital bed was too far in and he couldn't see anything from his position at
the door.
He kept staring anyway.
When Mary came back, she found Toby rooted to his spot in front of the door. It was as if he was a
statue.
"You should sit down, Young Master Toby," Mary said with a sigh. Toby shook his head. "I'm fine. I want to stand."
Since he insisted, Mary didn't try to talk him out of it and stood with him instead.
After a while, they heard the sound of someone crying inside the room.
Mary panicked. "I think Young Mistress Sonia is crying, Young Master Toby."
Toby's fists were clenched. "I know."
The sounds hadn't escaped his notice.
"Shouldn't we go in and check on her?" Mary said as she reached for the door. "It won't be good if
she's too emotional in her condition."
However, Toby stopped her and shook his head. "Don't go in, Mary."
Mary looked at him in confusion. "Why not?"
"Let her cry for a while." Toby let go of Mary's hand and explained, "She's deeply affected right now,
and crying's the best way for her to release her emotions. If we don't let her cry, then her emotions will
be pent up inside her which is worse. It's better if we let her cry."
"But what if she cries herself sick? Her health is so frail right now." Mary frowned.
Toby nodded. "I know, but I trust her. She's a grown woman. She knows she's carrying a baby and she
cares a lot about the baby, so she won't let anything happen to her. You should trust her too, Mary." Mary's eyes flitted between Toby and the ward. In the end, she sighed and nodded. "Alright. I'll do as
you say, Young Master Toby, but we should keep an eye on her still. If anything happens, we must go in
and check on her right away."
"Of course." Toby nodded.
That was his wife in there. She was the person he loved the most.
It was a given that he wouldn't disregard her and allow her to cry herself sick.
He planned on letting her cry for a little while, but if she showed no sign of stopping, then he would go
in to stop her.
Thankfully, just as Toby predicted, Sonia was still aware of the fact that she was pregnant, so even
though she was crying, she remained in control of herself and stopped as soon as she started feeling
uncomfortable.
Even though she didn't get to cry to her heart's content, she felt a lot lighter after her short crying spell.
The pain and anguish in her heart seemed to have eased quite a bit.
She leaned against the soft headboard and looked up at the ceiling lights.
The lights were a little too glaring. She had to squint a little.
Once her eyes got used to it, she opened them up again while tears began streaming down her face. I should've known, Sonia thought. I should've known that I'm the Grays' daughter.
I should've suspected something when I found that necklace at home that was the same design as
Mrs. Gray's. It was supposed to be a mother-daughter necklace design. That was the first clue.
I should've thought about my real identity more when I found out I wasn't Mom and Dad's biological
daughter. That was the second clue.
There were third and fourth clues after that.
Sonia often got a strange feeling whenever she saw the Grays.
For example, there were several times when she noticed that Julia seemed a little off and would feel
concerned about her.
She didn't think too much of it at the time and even thought she was going crazy for having so much
empathy, but now, she realized that it wasn't empathy. It was because they were family.
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebookAlso, she should have been happy when she found out that Titus was on the verge of dying, yet she
didn't feel any joy back then. Now, she realized that it was also because they were related to each
other.
There were a few instances of her feeling upset and uncomfortable when she saw the Grays showering
Taylor with affection. She assumed that she was feeling jealous of and displeased by the happy family.
Heck, she had even berated herself for having those feelings.
Well, she now knew that her jealousy stemmed from watching her parents dote on someone else. The worst of it all is the fact that I found out Rina had a mole on her wrist, and I have one too, but I
never suspected that I could be her. What a joke.
Sonia closed her eyes as tears trickled down her ghostly pale cheeks.
"Why?" Her lips trembled as she murmured hoarsely, "Why me?"
Why am I Titus' daughter? Why didn't Dad throw the baby into the river after stealing her? If he did, I
wouldn't be caught in the middle right now. I wouldn't be suffering in this turmoil.
