This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 522

Chapter 522 Doubts Cleared

Sonia said nothing and turned away to look at something else. She knew Titus wasn’t acting, since that was an excuse she made up herself. She had to convince herself that she didn’t help him because she was worried, but because she didn’t want him to scam her by faking his injury and demanding compensation. At this point, she wouldn’t put anything past the Grays.

Since Sonia wasn’t saying anything, and he was in agony, Titus didn’t argue with her. He told Julia to take him to a doctor right away to get some painkillers.

Julia wanted to teach Sonia a lesson and vent her fury, but she had more pressing matters at hand. Hence, she only shot Sonia a glare before taking Titus away. Titus was the family’s pillar, so if he were to fall, a weak woman like her would lose all the family’s fortune to the company’s sly shareholders.

And so, they left, but since Julia went away in a hurry, she didn’t notice Rina staying behind.

Rina was standing face to face with Sonia. “I never thought Tina would kill herself, Miss Reed.”

“It is surprising.” Sonia nodded. She looked at Rina’s face, trying to see through Rina. “You seem happy.”

Rina covered her lips and smiled, exactly like how all the rich ladies in the upper society did. Apparently, she must have gotten around during the time she was here, so she had picked up the art of elegance. Now, Rina had lost all the bumpkin attitude she had back when she first came to Seafield and turned into a confident, well-mannered, and elegant young lady. Anyone would believe it if she said she had never lived in the countryside before.

“Of course,” she crossed her arms and admitted to it. “You saw what my mother was like. Tina might have cut all ties with us, but that doesn’t mean they have forgotten about her. As long as she still lives, Dad and Mom will still always love her. They might have even taken her back after she was released. Now that she’s dead, I don’t have to worry about that anymore, so of course I’m happy.”

Sonia squinted at her and smiled mysteriously. “Is that so? Then I’m sorry to disappoint you.” Tina is still alive, you know.

Rina’s heart skipped a beat. “What do you mean?” Sonia’s smile was unsettling to her.

Sonia pushed her hair back. “It’s nothing. You’ll know in due time.”

“Hmm.” Toby arched his eyebrow, but he guessed the reason immediately. “You saw them?” She met Taylor and talked to her, so she knows Taylor isn’t the culprit. By that logic, she must have met the Gray couple and talked to them too. That’s why she knows they didn’t do it.

Sonia wasn’t surprised Toby guessed it. It wasn’t hard to figure out, so she said, “Yes. They came when you went to take your call. Mrs. Gray was beside herself. Titus was relatively calmer, but his eyes were filled with pain; genuine pain. They thought Tina jumped off the building, so they couldn’t have orchestrated this escape.”

“I see.” Toby nodded. “But it’s pointless to play the guessing game here. We still need to see the police’s investigation results. They’ve kept an eye on her 24/7, so they should know who visited her this month, and the culprit must be one of the visitors.”

“You have a point.” Sonia smiled.

“We should go in now. Tim should be done with the autopsy,” Toby said as he looked at his watch.

Sonia didn’t object. She turned around to look at where the corpse had been. The patch of blood on the ground was still gleaming, and it made her shiver.

It was then that a hand covered her eyes. “Don’t look.” Then, the person turned her head back. “Aren’t you scared?”

“I’m fine.” Sonia took Toby’s hand off her eyes. “The body’s gone, and the blood is all that’s left. It’s still unsettling, but I’m not scared now.”

“Still, you shouldn’t look. You’ll get nightmares.” Toby put his hands down.

Sonia said nothing and went with him to see Tim, but then her phone rang. She took it out and saw that the caller was Charles. “It’s Charles.” Instead of taking the call right away, she looked at Toby and told him who was calling for some reason.
