Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 221

Everyone shifted their gazes toward Tina, and she turned into the center of attention. Her first instinct was to hide behind Toby, but Toby forcefully pressed his hand against her shoulder in order to stop her from shrinking away. “Tina, you need to learn how to own up to the mistakes that you’ve made!”

Tina widened her eyes and glared at him with a look of disbelief on her face. She seemed to be blaming him for forcing her to admit her faults instead of offering help to her. A hateful look flashed in her eyes as she bit her lower lip. Although the look in her eyes only lasted for a split second, Toby froze as he caught her glaring at him. Does Tina hate me just because I didn’t stand on her side?

“It seems like you know about it, President Fuller. I don’t think I have to beat around the bush anymore then.” Brenda took a sip of red wine before she continued, “I was on the second floor earlier, and I saw Miss Gray knocking against Miss Reed’s arm with my very own eyes. Miss Reed didn’t do anything at all— Miss Gray collapsed onto the ground on her own.”

“In other words, Tina faked her own fall and went on to frame our baby for it, huh?” Charles started getting excited as he spoke.

Brenda nodded. “That’s right.” Both Zane and Carl heaved a sigh of relief once they heard Brenda’s words. They were glad that she was on their side. Even Toby relaxed his firmly knitted eyebrows as he watched Sonia giving Brenda a sincere bow. “Thank you for speaking up for me.”

“I’m not doing it entirely for you. I just don’t like watching others pulling such nasty tricks on my turf,” Brenda said with a smile. Tina’s face turned beet red once she heard Brenda’s words.

Even Titus’s expression had turned sour, but he continued to grit his teeth and stuck to his guns. “That’s not what the girl from the Stone Family saw. She saw Sonia pushing Tina with her own eyes!”

“Oh? Are you sure you saw it happen?” Brenda’s casual smile remained on her face as she turned toward Cynthia.

“I… I…” Cynthia appeared rather flustered. She hadn’t expected Brenda to be on the second floor. After glancing at Brenda, Cynthia turned back to look at Tina and Titus.

Tina gave Cynthia an encouraging nod. “Say it, Cynthia. Tell them that you saw it.”

“That’s right, Cynthia. Say it. You should just be honest since you saw it with your own eyes,” Titus added to show his support.

“…” Cynthia stuttered for a moment. She felt especially pressured as she was surrounded by a bunch of individuals who were of greater status than she was. She finally broke into tears when she couldn’t handle it any longer, “… I didn’t see it with my own eyes.”

“What?” Titus’s face fell. “You didn’t?”

Once more, a flash of hatred flickered in Tina’s eyes. F*ck! I can’t believe Cynthia betrayed me! Cynthia no longer had the guts to look at Titus and Tina, so she hung her head low as she spoke in an anxious tone. “I was angry at Sonia, so I wasn’t paying any attention to Tina. I only saw that she fell after I heard her screaming, but I didn’t see how she fell at all.”

“You—” Titus’s hands were trembling with fury. “Why did you say that you saw something, then?”

“Well, Tina’s my friend, so…” Cynthia muttered.

“So, you claimed that you saw something,” Sonia sneered. “It seems like you are Tina’s true friend, but I’m afraid Tina has never treated you like one,” she continued.

“What?” Cynthia shifted her gaze to Sonia. Even Toby quietly turned to look at Sonia after he heard what she had said.

The moment Tina sensed that something wasn’t right, she hastily concealed all the rage and hatred that she felt to put on a dejected expression as she looked at Cynthia. Cynthia instantly forgot everything that Zane had said she was overwhelmed by the guilt she felt for betraying her good friend. “I’m sorry, Tina. I…”

Tina turned away to avoid Cynthia’s gaze, and Cynthia looked at the floor in disappointment. Brenda merely shook her head as she watched this happen.

Meanwhile, Titus wasn’t prepared to give up on the matter. “Well, Cynthia might not have seen anything, but what about everyone else?” He glanced at the rest of the guests. “They claimed that they saw something as well.”
