This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 422

Needless to say, Sonia had of course thought about it and approached other companies in the same
industry. Nonetheless, she didn’t think those companies could bring much potential in the joint venture
with Paradigm Co. since they were just small firms. On the other hand, those companies had also
refused to work with Paradigm Co. as they were concerned about its bleak future. Due to that reason,
her company soon found itself in a position with little room for improvement and growth.

Although Paradigm Co. was still operating as usual for the time being, she knew that her company
would once again face an inevitable crisis if nothing was done to improve the status quo. After all, the
revenues that Paradigm Co. made from its cooperation with the Fuller Group’s subsidiaries were not
enough to keep the business afloat, let alone pay its debt that was worth tens of billions owed to Toby.
Thus, having a joint venture with a new company was definitely a pressing matter for her.

Furthermore, Sonia also agreed with Toby that as the biggest shareholder in the company, she should
get to know more people to expand her social network. After all, the commercial world was complicated
and unforgiving. Those who fought alone wouldn’t last long, which resulted in cooperation becoming
the most crucial way of survival.

It’s only by meeting more great people that I’ll know what I must do to improve myself, which is
essential for my long-term success. Otherwise, I could be left out or even ostracized by the people in
the commercial world. At the thought of that, Sonia suddenly caught on to Rose’s intention of giving her
the jewelry. She then took a deep breath and stared blankly at the man in front of her. “Grandma wants
me to meet those big shots during her birthday dinner. Am I right, President Fuller?”

As Sonia quickly understood the gravity of the situation, there was a trace of admiration in Toby’s eyes
as he nodded. “Exactly. That’s what Grandma wants. If you want to know these people and work with
them, you need to make yourself look valuable. Those people judge your ability to bring value to them
from your appearance. So, if your outfit fails to impress them, you may not even get a shot to greet
them, let alone meet them. Do you get me now?”



Unfortunately, that’s how grim the reality is! Despite his desire to introduce her to those big shots, he
knew she would definitely turn him down because she didn’t want to depend on him. Thus, he had to
create an opportunity by using his grandmother’s name to gather those big shots in one place before
having Sonia do the rest. While he optimistically believed that she would learn a thing or two from the
exposure, he would also be secretly observing her and be ready to create another opportunity for her
should she fail to seize the chance this time. Deep in his heart, he wished for her to become better and
more successful in her career.

“I get it now.” Sonia nodded, feeling touched. “Alright, I’ll take the jewelry. Please thank Grandma for
me. She should be enjoying her twilight years, yet she is still so concerned about me.”

Soon, Sonia recalled how Rose was the only one who treated her kindly in the six years that she was in
the Fuller Family. Because she only had eyes for Toby then, she turned down Rose’s invitation to move
over in an attempt to avoid Jean. Thus, Sonia never really had the opportunity to repay Rose’s
kindness because of her stubborn decision to stay in the Fuller Residence. I’m no longer the Fuller
Family’s daughter-in-law, but Grandma still cares about me all the time. Oh, I really don’t know how I
should repay her.

“Don’t mention it,” he chuckled in response. “It’s the least I could do.”

“What?” Sonia frowned doubtfully and opined, “I’m telling you to thank Grandma on my behalf. I wasn’t
saying that to you, so what do you mean by that?”

A speechless Toby puckered his lips, somehow feeling a little bitter in his heart. Although it was his
plan to begin with in the first place, he also had every right to say what he just did to Sonia.
Nonetheless, he couldn’t speak the truth or she would immediately return the jewelry to him.

“Fine, you don’t have to be my messenger. I’ll thank Grandma myself later.” Sonia pursed her lips,
thinking she should also assure Rose that she wouldn’t disappoint the old woman as she would close a



few deals during the birthday dinner. At the same time, she would guarantee the old woman that she
would take excellent care of the jewelry until she returned it after the birthday feast.

“Alright, please go ahead and talk to Grandma then. It’s getting late, so I should make a move and you
should get some rest.” Toby took a look at his watch and stood up. Man, if it weren’t for this upcoming
important meeting, I wouldn’t leave right now.

Sonia nodded and rose to her full height as well. “Have a safe trip home, President Fuller. Wanda,
please see President Fuller off.”

“Yes, Miss Reed,” Wanda replied and showed him the way.

“Alright, I’ll head off then.” He looked at Sonia, who only responded with a cold grunt.

Upon fixing his gaze on her face for a few seconds, he eventually turned away and walked toward the
exit with a heavy heart.

“Be careful on your way home, Young Master Toby.” Wanda followed behind the man and saw him off
at the door.

“I will, please take good care of her. By the way, the jewelry she is having now doesn’t belong to my
grandma. Furthermore, I want you to say nothing about the matter regarding my mother.” Toby made
his instruction heard and understood.

Deep down in his heart, he was sure that Sonia wouldn’t want to wear the jewelry that he gave her if
she knew it was from him instead of Rose. In fact, before his mother took her own life many years
earlier, she mentioned in her suicide note that the jewelries she left behind was for her future daughter-
in-law. Therefore, he swore to himself that he would give Sonia what he should have in the past six
years, bit by bit.



To him, it didn’t matter whether they were divorced or not because he had treated her as his own wife
anyway. She is my wife and no one can have her. Even if she won’t forgive me for the rest of her life,
I’m going to keep her by my side and do whatever it takes to keep her away from any other man. At the
thought of her being with some other men, he couldn’t help but grit his teeth in annoyance.

“Don’t worry, Young Master Toby. I know what I should do,” Wanda said with a smile.

“Alright, you should get back to her now. Don’t leave her alone for too long. She is going to need
someone to help her since she can’t see.” Toby waved his hand.

She nodded and closed the door while he made sure he heard the door closed before going to the
elevator. After taking a few steps forward, his phone rang, whereupon he quickly checked it out and
realized it was a call from Rose. Thus, he answered, “Grandma.”

“Toby, why am I unaware about my own 80th birthday feast? I remember telling you that I prefer a
simple meal with everyone in the family on my birthday instead of a grand feast. You agreed with that,
so what made you change your mind? What’s up with all this surprise?” Rose chuckled happily and
sarcastically added, “Furthermore, even my friends knew about it way before I did. You’re such a filial
grandson, huh!”

Upon sensing her unhappiness, Toby faked a cough and decided to come clean. “I’m sorry, Grandma. I
should have informed you earlier. I’m sorry about it.”

“Alas! It’s fine. Now that you’ve already distributed the invitation cards, there is no turning back now.
The show must go on, so there is no point for me to blame you now. Tell me, what changed your mind
all of a sudden?” she asked impatiently.

“It’s all for Sonia’s sake.” He turned around and set his eyes on Sonia’s apartment.



“Sonia?” Rose appeared to be stunned.

Toby nodded. “Yes, the future of Paradigm Co. is bleak and unpromising. If the situation persists, it will
not end well for her and her company. Furthermore, she is an ambitious woman who has always
wanted to expand her company, but under the given circumstances, she didn’t seem to have much of a
choice, so...”

“So, you’re planning to use my birthday feast to pave the way for Sonia’s future?” she responded with a
cold grunt.

“I’m sorry, Grandma.” He squinted as he had always wanted to create an opportunity for Sonia to
expand Paradigm Co. However, he struggled to find a chance to do so until he realized he could
execute his plan through his grandmother’s 80th birthday feast. After all, this would prevent Sonia from
becoming suspicious since she would probably think that it was all Rose’s idea. Unknown to her,
Rose’s birthday was in fact held for her.

In the meantime, Rose could see through her grandson, knowing that he felt guilty for using her
birthday feast to pave the way for the future of the woman he loved. However, she only shook her head
and replied, “What a silly boy!”
