“Miss Reed, don't go too far.” Tina was frustrated, but she had to endure it. “My father already apologized to you about the video. Why are you still reluctant to give up? You even want to Snatch the marriage proposal necklace

my boyfriend gave me?”

Sonia raised an eyebrow and laughed.

"You got together with President Fuller

a few days after I divorced him. I

wonder if you'd been coveting him

because you couldn't wait to be Mrs.

Fuller!”

“What nonsense are you talking about?

You're obviously the one-"

"And Miss Gray, I have no intentions of

Toby's gaze darkened.

After a moment of silence, he handed

the jewelry box containing the Ocean's

Heart to Sonia.

Tina panicked when she saw this, and she pulled on his sleeve. “Toby, this is

the necklace you proposed to me with.

Don't="

“Your father specially organized

today’s banquet to celebrate your

recovery and discharge. It won't be good to ruin the atmosphere.” Toby calmed her down. “It's just a necklace. After this, I'll ask Tom to find a better

one and propose to you with that.”

When the guests heard this, they all

snatching anything from you,” Sonia interrupted before Tina could say much. “You're the one who wants to give me a thank-you gift. I only have eyes for the Ocean's Heart.”

Tina was rendered speechless. Biting her lips, she stood there as her face grew increasingly pale, like a white flower about to wither.

As he watched on, Charles felt particularly good, and he almost

applauded Sonia.

“President Fuller, you have to say something. Don't be silent,” Charles

called out.

“Is it possible that you're not a man of vour word?”

became envious. “You're so blessed, Miss Gray. No matter how rare the piece of jewelry is, President Fuller would have a way to buy it for you!”

After complimenting Tina, they satirized Sonia once more.

Tina's expression improved when Toby said this, and she nodded obediently. “I'll listen to you.” As Sonia listened to their conversation,

all she felt was the irony of the

situation

She had been married to Tony for six

years. Forget jewelry; he had never

even bought her a piece of clothing.

Even their wedding ring was bought by

her.

Now, looking at how he was treating Tina, Sonia felt like her life was a joke.

Sonia suppressed the sadness in her

heart and accepted the jewelry box with a bright smile on her face.

“This is such a rare piece of jewelry, yet you're

giving it to me just like that. President

Fuller, it seems like you love Miss Gray

so much that you can't bear to let her

suffer any grievances at all.”

The woman spoke so enigmatically

that it made Toby uncomfortable, so

he replied lightly, “I've given you the

Ocean's Heart, and President Gray has

apologized to you, Sonia, don't pursue the matter of the video anymore.”

"Okay!"

Sonia readily agreed.

She picked up a glass of red wine from the table, then tipped it toward Toby. “President Fuller, Miss Gray, may you live a long and happy life together, and I hope you have plenty of babies.” With that, she cocked her head back

and drank the wine. After setting down

the glass, she turned and left.

“President Fuller, I have to thank you

too.” Charles grinned, “If it weren't for

your indifference, my baby wouldn't

have come to her senses. Thank you

for being so kind as to let my baby go.

She deserves the best.”

Charles picked up the butterfly handbag on the table, which Sonia forgot to take, then said warmly, "Let's

“Let's go!” Charles held Carl's

shoulders and they left together, all the

while complaining, “The air here is too

filthy.

I'd feel sick if I stayed here for

one more second!”

As Toby watched them leave, his

brows furrowed, and there was an

indescribable feeling of irritability in his

heart that wouldn't go away.

Sonia was a low-key person; it was a

surprise that she had such an

outstanding suitor.

As soon as Sonia got into the car, she closed her eyes and rested for less than a minute before Charles and Carl

got in.

“Baby, you did a great job just now. Tsk.

did you see the look on Tina's face?

She looked like she wanted nothing

more than to eat you up.” Charles got

into the driver's seat, fastened his seat

belt, and burst out laughing.

“It felt so

good watching you that I wanted to

applaud you!”

Carl entered the back seat and handed the butterfly handbag to Sonia. “You left it on the table and forgot to take it.”

“I left in a rush and didn’t notice” Sonia spoke as she retrieved her handbag.

Carl glanced at the jewelry box placed

next to the seat, then asked Sonia, sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“Sonia, do you... still care about Toby?

Did you want the Ocean's Heart

because you didn’t want to see him

and Tina together?”

Charles was driving as he looked at

Sonia in the rearview mirror, waiting for

her answer.

"We've gotten a divorce, so why should

I still care about him?” Sonia smiled. 1 didn't expect that Tina's mind would work so fast. She diverted everyone's attention from the video by trying to give me a thank-you gift.” As she spoke, she opened the jewelry box and showed it to Carl. “Tve

checked, and the jewelry industry's

famous 'k’ is the one who designed the

Ocean's Heart. The value is estimated

to exceed 100 million. How can I not want such easy money? Don't you

agree?”

Charles snorted. "A necklace worth

100 million? Baby, you're awesome.

You took a huge chunk out of Toby!"

"Of course I know that I'm awesome.” Sonia hummed, then covered the jewelry box and threw it to him. “Find a good channel and sell it for me.

100 million, Keep the extra money as my payment to you for your hard work.” “Okay!”

When Carl saw Sonia's capricious

expression, his brows eased, because

it didn't seem like she was lying.

“Sonia, seeing you like this, I'm

relieved.”

“Baby, why don't I find you another

boyfriend?” Charles smiled, then he

glanced at Sonia in the rearview mirror.

“Tell me about your requests, or you

and I can get together too. After all, my mom quite likes you—

“No way!" Before he could continue, he

was interrupted by Carl.

"Why not?” Charles rolled his eyes, then bragged, “Not only am I handsome, I'm also multi-talented. I grew up with

Sonia, so I'm the best candidate to be

her husband!"

Carl pursed his lips together, and the

aura he exuded was a little cold. "You

don't care about family.”

"Huh?

How would you know if I care

about family? You've never lived with

me!” Charles looked at Carl's

expression in the rearview mirror, then suddenly smiled. “Hey, do you fancy Sonia too? Sonia was taken aback. When she

recovered, she immediately reached

out and punched Charles.

“Shut up.

He's only twenty-two! He's a child!”

"He's a twenty-two-year-old man. He

has nothing to do with the word “child”

anymore.” Charles proceeded with a

smirk.

“Carl, tell me: Are you a virgin?”

No matter how gentle Carl was, he was

still a little embarrassed by Charles

question. He coughed. “Yes...

“Do you have any intentions toward

Tina?"

Seeing as Charles was getting bolder with his questions with no sign of shutting up, Sonia caught sight of the

chocolate bar in the middle row's armrest compartment, then she immediately tore it open and stuffed it

into his mouth.

Charles ate the large piece of

chocolate and whimpered, almost

choking to death

“That's how he is. He speaks without a

filter,” Sonia said to Carl. “Don't mind

him. Don't let his questions get to you.”

Carl hummed an answer but kept his

gaze on Sonia's face.

After hesitating for a moment, he was

about to say something to Sonia when the phone in his pocket suddenly

vibrated.

Carl glanced at his phone after taking it

out, and his expression changed

slightly.

Then, he moved to the other

side of the car and lowered his voice.

“What's the matter?”

After the phone call ended, Carl told Charles, “I have something to deal with. Just drop me at the intersection up

ahead.”

“Was it your agent?” Sonia asked, “How

about you let Charles take you there?”

Carl gave a faint smile, then in a warm

and soft voice, he said, “That's okay. My car is on the way. Charles should send you home early so that you can have a good rest.”

Upon hearing the young man’s

statement, Sonia nodded reluctantly.

Soon, Carl was out of the car.

When the car drove away, Sonia poked

her head out slightly and saw Carl

standing tall and straight by the

roadside with a well-defined profile...

As she studied him, the person in her

As she studied him, the person in her

eyes seemed to turn into Toby from

eight years ago.
