This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 518

Chapter 518 Toby the Fashion Critic

As the plaintiff in Tina’s case, Sonia had the right to know everything that was happening to Tina. That was why the police immediately called to let her know about it after they found out Tina killed herself. “Tina is dead?” Sonia mumbled in disbelief.

Tom’s jaw dropped. “What? She killed herself? That’s just…”

Toby took Sonia’s phone. “Why did she kill herself?”

 

Teddy recognized Toby’s voice, and he answered, “We’re still looking into it. It happened very suddenly, so nobody knows why. The only guess we have now is that she’s trying to avoid prison. Tomorrow’s her last day of house arrest, so that’s probably why. However…”

“This guess is probably wrong,” Toby finished his sentence.

Teddy nodded. “Yes. If she’s really trying to avoid prison, she wouldn’t have waited until now to kill herself. She would have done it as soon as she was placed under house arrest. But that’s what we can work with now. We’re still looking into this.”

“I see. We’ll be right there.” Toby hung up and handed the phone back to Sonia.

Sonia took the phone dumbly. “Tina killed herself?” Apparently, she was still in shock.

Toby patted her head. “Yes.”

 

Her lips trembled, but she said nothing. Her mind was raging and impossible to calm, for she could not believe Tina had died just like that. Sonia bit her lip.

Toby said nothing. To be honest, he never thought Tina would commit suicide. It caught everyone by surprise, and he had a feeling the suicide wasn’t as simple as it looked. First, the timing wasn’t right, and the reason was too outlandish. Couple that together, and that would be a recipe for a mystery. But I’ll have to take a look for myself to find out.

“Let’s go. This is no laughing matter. You’re the plaintiff, so you must know what’s going on as well.” Toby tipped her chin up gently.

Sonia looked at him. “Okay.”

Toby retracted his hand. “Drive,” he told Tom.

Tom nodded. “Yes, sir!”

They got into the car and went to First World Hospital. Nobody said anything on the way, and the atmosphere was depressingly somber. Tina’s suicide was too shocking for them, making it impossible for them to calm down.

It looked fashionable for some reason. His was a blue-striped necklace, while her dress and jacket were black. It was as if a blue moon had suddenly appeared in the night sky, dazzling everyone. “Done.” He finished adjusting the necktie and pulled his hands away.

Sonia looked at his handiwork. “Not bad. Never thought you knew how to do this.”

Toby chuckled. “I’ll take that as a compliment. We can go out now.”

He popped a cap over his head as well. Tom had bought those caps in a nearby shop when they stopped earlier.

Toby opened the door and got out first, then he extended his hand to Sonia.

Sonia put her hand in his without any hesitation, and he held her hand tight. Toby took her out of the car, then they went to the cordon point.

They came up to one of the officers, and Sonia quietly identified herself.

The officer had been told by his captain about their arrival, so after he verified her identity, he lifted the tape up and allowed the three of them to go in.

It wasn’t until the trio had gone in did the reporters realize who they were. However, they were too late, for Sonia, Toby, and Tom had gone into the cordoned-off area.

Since they didn’t dare to breach the area, the reporters took deep breaths and shouted out their questions as Sonia and the others went in. They wanted to know Sonia’s opinion about Tina’s suicide, but Sonia and Toby pretended they heard nothing. They kept walking, and eventually, they got out of the reporters’ sights.

When they came to the ward area, Sonia noticed that one of the buildings was crowded with police officers and the medical staff. Aside from that, there wasn’t a single civilian. They were probably evacuated.

“They’re just up ahead,” Toby said softly.
