This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 224

Titus nearly choked. He was aware of how problematic his words sounded, but he was the elder one in the conversation, so Toby shouldn’t have blatantly called him out even though what he said was wrong. Does Toby still want to be with Tina or not?

Titus let out a displeased grunt. “Tina has made a ton of mistakes in the past, Toby. You’ve always been on her side even when she did other things to Sonia, and you were always the one to clean up the mess for Tina. Don’t you think it’s a little too late to say that helping Tina is indirectly harming her now? That just means you’ve been harming her all along!”

Toby’s pupils shrunk as he tightened his grip around his phone. He didn’t respond immediately. Titus is right. Although everything that occurred to Sonia previously was the doing of Tina’s alter ego, I had still minimized the alter ego’s harm toward Sonia by comforting Tina’s original personality when she cried. Now, Tina’s alter ego is getting increasingly nasty, while Sonia is caught in a situation where she is the main target. I didn’t just hurt Tina, but I’ve also brought harm upon Sonia.

“You’re right, Titus. Perhaps I should change how soft-hearted I’ve been toward Tina. Otherwise—” Before Toby could finish his sentence, a blaring horn sounded in front of him. Immediately after that, a blinding pair of high beams struck against his windshield.

The white light disrupted his vision, and Toby couldn’t see anything in front of him. He knitted his brows as his expression turned grim. Then, he hastily calmed himself down and threw his phone aside to wind his window down to check the roads through his rearview mirror. He wanted to rely on his rearview mirror to find a spot by the side of the road where he could stop his car.

However, before he could turn the steering wheel, the car that had been shining its high beams in Toby’s direction crashed directly into his car. Bang! A loud crash sounded as Toby’s car shook wildly. His entire figure was thrown forward, and his forehead was split open as he slammed against the wheel. Red liquid covered his face instantly, and he lost consciousness soon after that.

On the other end of the line, Titus threw his phone aside angrily. “I can’t believe Toby ended my call! Does he even respect me at all?” His face was sour.

“All right, all right. Is there a need to be so angry?” Julia poured him a cup of tea.

Titus took the drink and finished it before slamming the cup onto the table. “I’m his future father-in-law, and he ended my call without even a simple goodbye. How am I supposed to be okay with that?

Other sons-in-law usually stick up to their wives’ fathers, and they’d be terrified to offend their in-laws in any way. But what about him? He always shows that attitude of his when he’s with us; he barely smiles at all! Have you ever seen a son-in-law like him?!”

Julia stroked Titus’s chest to calm him down. “Toby has a relatively calm and distant personality. I’m sure you know that by now.”

“His personality doesn’t give him an excuse to be rude and end my call!” Titus brushed Julia’s hand away and pulled his pants up as he sat down on the couch. “His attitude toward me makes me wonder if he truly loves Tina sometimes.”

Tina was by the railings on the second floor, and she tightened her grip around the railing when she heard her father’s words. A rather mysterious expression formed on her face. Meanwhile, Julia continued the conversation downstairs. “Pfft! What are you saying?

Of course, Toby loves her. He said that he fell in love with her a long time ago. If it hadn’t been for the Reeds that had barged in six years ago, Toby and Tina’s marriage would’ve already happened a long time ago. Anyway, did Toby say that he’s coming over?”

“He didn’t say anything. I guess he isn’t.” Titus massaged the space between his brows.

Upstairs, Tina sank her teeth into her bottom lip.
