This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr Chapter 856

Gown and Suit Cut into Pieces

Though it was already midnight, the lights were still on in the police station.

Sonia and Toby went into the police station with their hands held together. The officer, who had talked
to her on the phone, came to usher them to a room as soon as he saw them.

“Miss Reed, your clothes are on the table. Please be mentally prepared before checking it.” The officer
sighed as he pointed at the table in the room.

After all, what if she fainted after seeing that the few million worth of clothes had turned into something
like that? If the officer was in her shoes, he wouldn’t be able to take it and would fall into a swoon.

The officer’s reminder made her calm heart race in agitation again. Then, she let go of Toby’s hand;
she scampered toward the table while Toby followed her at her heels. Meanwhile, the officer followed
them behind instead of standing by the door.

Sonia arrived in front of the table and saw the two boxes that contained the clothes. The exquisite box
was undamaged. But the things in it might be…

She dared not to think further about it. She pursed her lips and reached out her hand to open one of
the boxes.

Her hands were trembling while opening the box as she felt uneasy. Toby noticed it and placed his
hands atop hers before giving it a slight squeeze. He reassured her gently, soothingly, “Don’t be afraid.
I’m always behind you no matter what happens. Just do whatever you want. I got your back.”

Sonia focused her gaze on him while looking at that faint smile on his face. Though it was a light smile,
it instantly soothed her anxious heart with solace.



She told herself, He’s right. No matter what’s in the box, I still have to face it.

Since it was inevitable, there was no need for any hesitation. Things had already happened; she
couldn’t change the conditions of the items in the box.

Thus, facing it with equanimity would be better. Besides, regardless of what was in that box, she wasn’t
alone as Toby was by her side.

Her tense face finally let out a smile as she thought of him accompanying her. “You’re right. I feel better
now.”

With that being said, she took a deep breath and regained her composure. Even her hands weren’t
shaking anymore. Despite that, Toby didn’t move his hand away, and they opened the box together.

The moment the box contents were revealed, Sonia’s pupils contracted as her expression fell. Even
Toby’s eyes widened in surprise. His face darkened immediately, and he exuded an intimidating aura
around him, sending shudders to the officer who was standing right behind him. The petrified officer
timidly looked at Toby as it was the officer’s first time encountering someone with such a domineering
disposition.

Oh lord, this must be a top dog that manages over a hundred thousand employees. The air around him
is indeed different.

Meanwhile, the man in question had no idea that his outpouring aura had terrified the poor officer.

His eyes zeroed in on the blue dress in the box. It had become pieces of cruddy cloth after being cut
when he had previously assumed that it would be either ripped or stained with dirty smudges at most.
Therefore, he was pretty shocked to see it completely ruined like that.



Of course, other than surprise, the wrath in him was blazing fiercely. It was the same case for Sonia as
well.

She had expected the gown to be damaged, but the truth was way more appalling than she had
imagined.

She stretched out her arm to hold the dress high to take a closer look at it. However, the moment she
grabbed it, it was all pieces of cloth where none of them was wider than her palm. So, she was merely
holding pieces of fabric, not a dress.

In short, no one could tell that these fabrics were, in fact, still a gorgeous gown a few hours ago.

Sonia’s eyes reddened with rage. “Toby, it’s…”

Toby patted her shoulder lightly, signaling her to keep her cool. Then, he opened the other box himself.

Needless to say, his suit was cut into pieces too. It was no longer the chic suit from before but pieces of
rags.

His eyes narrowed at the rags, and it took him long before he could suppress the surging bloodlust in
him. Then, he picked up one of them to inspect it.

He grazed the frayed edge before he deduced, “It’s scissors. Judging from the finely cut fabric, she
must be holding a grudge.”

“Grudge?” Sonia was baffled.

He threw the cloth back into the box. “At first, I thought he was just a mercenary person who wanted to
get some money by selling them off. But looking at these, it’s not as simple as I thought. It wasn’t for
money. He was ordered to turn up right there and snatched your gown for the culprit, who is holding a
grudge against you. So, the culprit ruined your gown to let off steam.”



“That’s right.” The officer who had been silent the whole time suddenly piped up, “We were equally
shocked to see your clothes in this state. That’s when we realized that it wasn’t a simple case of
robbery. As President Fuller has assumed, if it were really for money, the robber wouldn’t have ruined
them even if the clothes weren’t sold yet. They are worth a lot of money, after all. Now that the clothes
have been cut into such fine pieces, there’s only one explanation for that—your enemy is taking
revenge on you, Miss Reed.”

“Enemy, revenge…” Sonia’s face became solemn as she dropped her gaze onto the ground, racking
her brain to think who could be the possible suspect.

Toby didn’t disturb her when he saw her deep in thought. Instead, he averted his gaze onto the officer
next to him. “Where was the robber arrested?”

“At a waste disposal area,” replied the officer.

Toby’s brows creased tightly. “He wanted to get rid of the clothes?”

“Yeah.” The officer nodded. “When we caught him, he was about to dump the clothes into an
incinerator. We managed to stop him, but the clothes were already ruined.”

“Was there anyone else?” questioned Toby seriously.

The officer shook his head. “Nope. He was alone. But we arrested him two hours ago, and Miss Reed
made a report to us six hours ago. That means we’re not sure of his whereabouts during those four
hours, let alone the people he had met. The only thing we’re certain of is that he must have met the
culprit who had ordered him to do so. Then, the culprit gave him the already ruined clothes so he could
incinerate the evidence.”



When he listened to the officer’s words, Toby’s face was full of disapproval. “It’s been two hours.
Haven’t you got the culprit’s identity from that robber yet?”

The officer’s face broke into a bitter smile. “He’s a recidivist, President Fuller. He frequents our place
because of theft and robbery, and he’s tight-lipped. He’s currently in the interrogation room. We’re
using light exposure to distress him. Once he puts his guard down a little, we’ll be able to get whatever
information we need.”

Toby pursed his lips into a thin line. Before he could say anything, Sonia’s eyes suddenly widened as
color drained from her face. “I know who did this.”

Toby and the officer instantly turned to look at her.
