This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 882 Don’t Betray Me

“I’m at fault as well.”

Suddenly, Toby took off his seatbelt and spun around to pull Sonia, who was sitting in the front

passenger seat, into a hug. He placed his chin on her shoulder before he said dejectedly, “If only I

found out that Connor betrayed my mother when I was younger, she wouldn’t have had to suffer for ten

years, and she wouldn’t have felt so hopeless that she took her own life. If she knew that Connor

betrayed her earlier, she might have been able to move on from the relationship and accept my father

instead.”

Sonia could sense the loneliness and guilt from the man next to her, and she reached out to pat his

back. “Don’t say that. It’s not your fault at all. How could you have thought about all that when you were

just a kid? You’re not responsible for what happened, and you can’t blame yourself for it. Your mother

loved you, and she would be sad if she knew that you blamed yourself for her death. I’m sure you don’t

want that to happen, do you?”

This time, Toby didn’t say anything. Instead, he hugged Sonia tighter and buried his head into her neck

deeper.

Meanwhile, Sonia continued patting his back, consoling him silently.

Although Toby normally looked powerful and unfazed as if he could achieve anything he wanted, he

was just an ordinary man behind his glorious facade.

An ordinary man with feelings just like every other human.

He would feel sad, guilty, and self sabotage as well.

Currently, Toby really needed a companion to console him.

A while later, he let go of Sonia and started the car engine to drive away after a traffic police came

knocking at the car window to remind them that they couldn’t park here for long.

On the way back to Bayside Residence, Toby drove quietly while staring ahead at the road.

When they reached Bayside Residence, he parked the car in the parking lot before letting go of the

steering wheel and turned to Sonia. Then, he finally spoke again. “Don’t worry. I won’t become

someone like Connor Salzburg.”

“Huh?” Sonia, who was undoing her seatbelt, paused as she was confused about why Toby would say

something like that.

Nevertheless, Toby held her hand with a serious expression on his face. “I’ll be loyal to you. My heart

and body belong to you, and I won’t act like Connor by cheating on you like what he did to my mother.

This is my promise to you. Please believe me.”

A man should know to keep his promises.

Once a promise was made, he must be able to keep it.

Ever since he was young, Toby had been taught to not be a person who couldn’t keep their promises.

One should give their all to the person one loved, and that person should be the only one in their eyes.

Even if the feeling of love was gone, one’s loyalty was expected as long as they were still together.

This was basic respect toward that person as well as responsibility toward one’s morals.

Of course, Toby would never stop loving Sonia, so he was disgusted at what Connor did as a man

himself.

The reason why he was telling Sonia all these was because while there were many men in this world

that behaved like Connor, there were still many good men that existed, and he was one of them.

Toby didn’t want Sonia to be suspicious that he might cheat on her after hearing about Connor’s

wrongdoings, since he had made a promise to her as well. He was worried that she might lose trust in

his promise because of Connor.

If that was really the case, he would be really frustrated.

Hence, Toby really wanted to prove himself to Sonia that he wasn’t like Connor, and that he would

never become like him.

She’ll believe me, won’t she?

He pursed his lips as his gaze darkened. However, a hint of anxiousness could be seen in his dark

gaze.

Toby was really worried that Sonia would not trust him and think that he might cheat on her because of

Connor.

Noticing how nervous the man was, Sonia pursed her lips and chuckled softly. “Come on, don’t be like

that. I won’t doubt you just because of what Connor did to your mother. Everyone is different, and I

know that well.”

It was too easy to guess what Toby was thinking about. Sonia could immediately tell what was

bothering him.

Although Sonia thought that Toby’s worries were unnecessary, she was still touched that he had

immediately thought of her feelings and wanted to make sure that she wouldn’t overthink.

“There are many perspectives from which we view the world and humans. There are good people and

bad people. I won’t think badly of every man in this world just because Connor is a horrible one

because that would be unfair to all other nice men. Don’t worry. I won’t overthink or suspect that you

might cheat on me. Even if I don’t trust you, I should trust my taste in men. I believe the man that I like

won’t be a cheater. What do you think?”

She turned to Toby with a smile while Toby nodded with determination. “Of course. I won’t let you doubt

your taste in men.”

“Good. That’s already enough for me.” Sonia squeezed the man’s hand.

Toby sighed in relief.

Great. Looks like she’s not affected by what Connor did. If she is, I’ll immediately crush Connor without

any regards for the consequences that I’ll be facing.

While pondering to himself, he felt his heart racing after hearing what Sonia said next.

“However…” Sonia’s glistening eyes narrowed slightly.

At the same time, Toby felt his heart skip a beat as he had a bad feeling about this. “What?” he gulped

and asked with a hoarse voice.

Sonia stared at the man in front of her while grinning and didn’t bother hiding the cunning look in her

eyes. “If you really cheat on me while we are still together and destroy my trust for you, don’t blame me

for destroying your reproductive tool.”

Then, she made a cutting gesture and shifted her gaze downward before fixating it between the man’s

legs.

Immediately, Toby’s pupils shrank, and he felt a little intimidated. Under Sonia’s heated gaze, his legs,

which were apart, closed instinctively.

It was obvious that he hadn’t expected Sonia to say that.

That’s kind of cruel, man.

Seeing that Toby remained quiet while pursing his lips, Sonia propped her head against her hand

before a ghost of a smile appeared on her face. “What’s wrong? Do you think that I went over the line?

I don’t think so, though, because I won’t do that as long as you don’t cheat on me. If you think that I

went over the line, does that mean that you’re planning to treat me like how Connor treated your

mother?”

“No!” Toby frowned and quickly exclaimed, “I will never become like him.”

“Why were you quiet, then? I made myself clear. You won’t think that I’m crossing the line as long as

you don’t betray me, because there’s nothing to worry about if you won’t do it.” Sonia’s gaze met

Toby’s.

At this moment, Toby sighed softly. “I don’t think that you went over the line. I was just shocked by what

you said.”

“Shocked?” Sonia tilted her head to the side curiously while Toby nodded and hummed in

acknowledgement. “I wasn’t afraid of what you said just now, and I’m not worried about it happening,

but still, don’t stare at me like that. You made me feel like you might just end me within the next

second. You should know all men care about their assets. After all…”

He looked around.
