This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 754

Jessica’s Bargaining Chip

Able to empathize with Tom, Toby understood why Tom would feel shocked at the sight of Jessica’s
frightening appearance. At the same time, Jessica could hear the conversation between Tom and Toby in
the detention room. Seeing the fear in Tom’s eyes, Jessica couldn’t help but feel her heart sinking. After
all, she hadn’t washed her face and removed her make-up in days, and her lack of sleep only served to
make her look even more emaciated.

Thus, she was aware of how frightening her appearance was but didn’t expect to see someone exclaim
at the sight of her looks. Deep down, she couldn’t accept the fact that she had become ugly, especially
in front of Toby, whom she considered an outstanding man.

The more she dwelled on that matter, the more she wanted to cover her face to keep anyone from
seeing it. However, she quickly realized her hands were strapped to the armrest and weren’t able to
move at all.

Therefore, she could only keep her head down to avoid their gaze. “Don’t look at me! I said don’t look!”
She commanded with a maniacal voice, her body shivering like a madwoman as Toby watched in disgust
with a frown on his face.

Then, Tom pointed at her. “President Fuller, do you think she’s gone nuts?”



“Do you think someone as scheming as her would go nuts so easily?” Toby asked his assistant back
coldly.

“Well…” Tom gulped and scratched his head. “I guess you have a point.”





At that moment, the police officer guarding the entrance came over and knocked on the glass with his
baton, warning the lady sternly. “Silence! Open your eyes and look around you! This is not your home, so
shut your mouth up!”

Seeing the police officer’s darkened face, Jessica backed away fearfully and kept quiet. After all, ever
since she was detained a few days ago, she had been tortured by those officers to the point of
traumatization. She seemed to have been conditioned to fear them, knowing about the extreme
measures they would resort to when dealing with criminals. Thus, she didn’t dare to mess with those
officers.

As soon as Jessica kept her mouth shut, the police officer put away his baton and turned around to Toby
with a polite smile. “Please carry on with your conversation, President Fuller.”

“Sure.” Toby nodded, replying with an affirmative hum.

After the officer tipped his hat and walked out of the place, the detention room was left with Toby and the
other two in it. Then, Toby took a step forward and walked closer to the glass, staring at the lady with his
cold gaze. “Why did you want to meet me?”

Upon hearing the man’s question, Jessica looked up in fear but immediately kept her head down for the
next second like a frightened rabbit.

Meanwhile, Tom began to run out of patience at the sight of Jessica’s expression, frowning in frustration.
“Hey, what’s that supposed to mean? You’re acting like President Fuller is going to bite you.”

Well, I think President Fuller would rather ‘bite’ Miss Reed, in fact. That’ll never happen to you, lady.

“Alright, that’s it. I don’t want to see her face any longer either, anyway.” Toby pursed his lips, speaking
with a bitter voice.



Jessica squinted in anger, feeling insulted upon hearing Toby’s words. Although she knew Toby didn’t
like her, she was unhappy that he didn’t treat her with the chivalry and decency she deserved as a lady.
On the inside, she believed Toby was aware of her feelings for him and was convinced that the reason
she kept her head down was to prevent him from seeing her ugly face.

He knows how I feel, yet he still says all those mean things to hurt me. At the thought of that, Jessica
looked up and glared at Toby like he was her unfaithful lover who wronged her.

While Toby appeared rather calm, Tom felt so disgusted that he was starting to have goosebumps
running all over his body. What’s that look supposed to mean, lady? It’s disgusting!

“Mr. Fuller.” Jessica sat straight in the interrogation chair, taking a deep breath as she set her enchanted
eyes on the rich and handsome man like he was an angel who cast a spell on her. “Mr. Fuller, the reason
why I sent for you is that I want you to get me out of here. With your power and status, I believe that’s not
something very hard to pull off.”

“Excuse me. Did you just say that you want me to get you out of here?” Toby raised his eyebrows.

“That’s right!” Jessica nodded in a serious manner.

At that instant, Toby looked at the lady with a strange gaze, having a weird feeling as if he knew nothing
about the lady at all.

On the other hand, Tom dramatically exclaimed, “Jeez! Am I overreacting, or are you out of your mind?
You’re telling President Fuller to get you out of detention, aren’t you? You probably need to get your brain
checked, Jessica. Don’t you know about the relationship between President Fuller and Miss Reed?
You’re enemies with Miss Reed, so that makes you the enemy of President Fuller as well. So, why do
you still have the cheek to demand President Fuller help you get out of trouble? Unless he is out of his
mind, President Fuller will never break up with Miss Reed and agree to help you. Besides.” He paused



and smirked. “Even if President Fuller and Miss Reed didn’t know each other, he has no reason to save
you from your trouble. Who are you, after all?”

Upon hearing the man’s mean reply, Jessica reacted with a twisted expression on her face shortly before
she returned to normal. She then fixed her gaze on Toby’s conceited look and said, “I may be a nobody
to Mr. Fuller, but I’m sure you will promise to get me out of this place.”

“Why are you so sure?” Tom furrowed his eyebrows while Toby squinted skeptically.

“Because I know a little secret that is about Sonia.” A complacent look slowly began to show on Jessica’s
face.

“Really? A secret about Sonia?” Toby squinted even more.

“That’s right.” Jessica’s eyes were filled with craze and madness. “I discovered Sonia’s actual identity.”

Tom rolled his eyes upward in response when he heard those words. “Oh, jeez! And here I thought it was
something else big and dramatic. Didn’t you already know Miss Reed’s actual identity long ago? What
else is there besides the fact that she is not the Reed Family’s biological daughter? You even tried to
spread it on the internet but failed to succeed in the end, yet you’re now planning to use the same old
trick twice, aren’t you?”

While Toby remained quiet with his head kept down in a broody manner, Jessica unhappily gawked at
Tom. “Don’t worry. I’m no fool. Of course, I’m not going to use the same old trick twice. It’s no longer
useful anymore, after all. Instead, I mean I’ve discovered whose biological daughter Sonia is when I
mention her actual identity.”

Toby immediately looked up, radiating an intimidating aura upon hearing that as Tom’s face changed.
“What did you say?”



“I said I know who Sonia’s biological parents are.” Jessica felt gleeful upon witnessing the two men’s
reaction, laughing maniacally.

Unsure whether Jessica was telling the truth, Tom decided to sound her out for Toby. “Why should we
believe that you know who her real parents are? You could be lying.”

“There is no reason for me to lie because I’m counting on this secret to get me out of here,” Jessica
answered with a cold grunt.

A glacial look flashed across Toby’s face shortly before it disappeared. He then asked with a cold voice,
“So, you’re saying you want me to get you out of here in exchange for the secret that will reveal who
Sonia’s biological parents are?”

“That’s right!” Jessica jutted her chin.

Meanwhile, Tom couldn’t stand the smug expression on Jessica’s face, feeling annoyed to see her acting
as if she had everything under control, but when he was about to say something, Toby raised his hand as
a gesture to tell him to keep quiet. Therefore, Tom reluctantly remained silent as he was told and said
nothing more.

Soon, Toby fixed his gaze on Jessica, his eyes filled with unfathomable emotions. “What makes you think
I’ll get you out of here right after you tell me who Sonia’s parents are? Moreover, do you think you’re in a
position to make deals?” Although he had no idea whether Jessica was aware that the couple from the
Gray Family was, in fact, Sonia’s biological parents, he decided to seize the opportunity and sound her
out.
