This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 267

Clang!

Now that the office door was closed, the room instantly fell silent. Sonia then gazed at her hands that Toby had grabbed before she coldly said, “President Fuller, Charles has been taken out. Can you let me go now?”

He released his grip on her with a nod. Since her hands were freed, she immediately took two steps back to distance herself from him. “President Fuller, what exactly do you want to say to me?”

As he looked at her in all seriousness, he replied, “I wasn’t fooling you when I told you about all those things the last time at Bayside Residence. It’s all true; the person whom I love is not Tina but you!”

 

Sonia was silent for a few seconds before she gave a mock laugh. “President Fuller, what do I have that is worthy of your heart? Not only do you still want to lie to me, but you even joined forces with your grandmother to lie to me? ”

Upon seeing that she was still unwilling to believe his own sincerity, Toby sighed. “Do you still remember John?”

When she heard the name, Sonia’s expression changed slightly. “How do you know John?”

She really is the real Maple! Then, Toby’s eyebrows softened as he lightly opened his thin lips and replied, “John Johann is my other name. Many years ago, I took my mother’s last name Johann and she used to call me John!”

“Y-You…” Upon hearing his words, she pointed at him as her eyes widened in disbelief. She finally came to the realization that he was her long-time pen pal, John!

As if Toby seemed to know what Sonia wanted to say, he gently put her hand down. “I’m the John whom you’re thinking of, Maple!”

 

Now that he had called out her pen pal name, Sonia could no longer deny that he was not her pen pal. She merely found it difficult to accept the truth.

“How could it be you?” Sonia bit her lip, feeling that everything was so ridiculous. “Why would you be John?”

That gentle boy who would comfort her with letters whenever she was bullied by her stepmother and when she was unhappy was actually Toby!

“Why can’t it be me?” Toby frowned slightly and asked, “Or, are you disappointed that John is actually me?”

He could tell that she looked disappointed when she confirmed that he was John. She actually did not want him to be John!

When the time came to meet up a month later, she went to the place where he said they were going to meet, but much to her dismay, he did not appear despite her waiting from noon until dark. Besides, his phone could not be reached, so she returned to her dormitory in disappointment. However, he sent a text message the next morning, telling her that she did not need to write to him anymore.

It was the whole relationship between her and John from start to finish. As shocked as she was, it turned out that John and the man whom she had a crush on at the time were actually the same person, Toby Fuller!

“You’re right, it’s true that John and I don’t have any similarities with each other now.” Toby lowered his eyelids. When the hypnosis was broken, he gradually remembered what his previous self was like. However, he was well aware that even if he had recovered from the hypnosis, he could not return to his old, gentle self after experiencing what the business world was like.

“Well, what’s the use of talking about this? Even if you are John, so what? What does it have to do with you saying that you love me?” Sonia took a deep breath to suppress the emotions churning within her and spoke in a cold, indifferent voice.

“Of course it does!” Toby’s thin lips moved. “I fell in love with Maple many years ago. Even I myself can’t believe it; I actually fell in love with a girl whom I’ve never met and only knew through correspondence. And that girl is you, Sonia!”

“Wait!” Sonia hurriedly motioned for him to stop. “You said that you fell in love with me when I was still Maple a long time ago?”

“Yes!” Toby nodded.

She sneered in between her laughter. “Do you think I would believe that? 6 years ago, you and Tina got together. That means—”

“No!” Since he knew what she was going to say, he immediately interrupted her before explaining with a serious expression, “I have never loved Tina. The woman whom I love has always been you. I was with her 6 years ago because I took her for you.”

“What?” Sonia looked stunned as her mouth was agape. “You took her for me?”

Toby nodded. “6 years ago, I read in your letter that you wanted to confess your love for someone. I couldn’t accept it, so I wrote back to you and asked you to meet with me just to personally tell you that I have always loved you and wanted to be with you. However, I didn’t expect that it wasn’t you who came; it was Tina!”
