Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 1532

Chapter 1432 Parental Love

Titus and Julia shed tears of happiness when they saw how Sonia didn't object to them referring to Titus as her father. Could this mean that our child isn't really that hostile to us? "Sonny, how are you feeling right now?" asked an emboldened Julia concernedly as she approached Sonia. "Is something ailing you? If you feel unwell, you have to say it out loud. Pregnancy is traumatic in the first place, and you're young and have yet to experience this kind of thing. If there's something you don't understand, make sure to say it so that we can help you better. Got it?"

Titus chimed in, "Your mom's right, Sonny—"

Before he could finish his sentence, however, Sonia cut him short, saying, "I know these things myself, so you two don't have to remind me of that. I have lots of people around me who care about me."

The looks on Titus and Julia's faces turned to disappointment at the same time.

Julia nodded embarrassedly, saying, "You're right, Sonny. It's just that we're still worried about you, so please don't cast us off, okay?"

Sonia pursed her slightly pale lips without saying a word.

Toby patted her on the head without speaking either.

Silence instantly fell over the ward, making the atmosphere especially uncomfortable. Soon after that, however, Julia drew in a breath, and a faint smile reappeared on her face. "Oh, right, have you had breakfast? You two came so early. I made lots of breakfast, so let's have some together, shall we?" she

said and was about to go to the kitchen to fetch them.

Titus nodded. "Your mom knew yesterday that you were coming, so she went out of the way to buy a lot of ingredients to cook a meal for you two. You should try it."

"It's not necessary," Sonia refused after biting her lip. "We've had breakfast already, so you needn't bother to do this."

Hearing that they already had their breakfast, Julia paused for a moment. The next instant, however, she said with a smile, "It doesn't matter if you've had breakfast. It took you two a lot of time to come all the way here, so you must be hungry. Sonny, just have some more, okay?" She looked at Sonia eagerly. There was even an imploring look in her eyes. She just wanted Sonia to try out the food she prepared.

Seeing Julia like this, Titus let out an inward sigh before saying, "Sonny, your mom has never cooked in over twenty years. It's not that she doesn't know how to cook, but she wasn't willing to do so. She didn't know how to cook before getting pregnant with you, but after getting pregnant with you, she began to learn how to cook, saying she wanted to cook for her daughter for the rest of her life. After you got abducted, she became totally dispirited. She has many skills that she learned especially for you, but she has never used them again since then."

Sonia's eyes flickered at his words, and she turned to look at Julia.

Julia was also looking at her with reddened eyes. "Sonny—"

Sonia's voice choked up. "What about Tina, then? Haven't you two cooked for her before?"

Julia quickly shook her head. "No, we've never done that," she replied. "Sonny, I've never cooked anything for Tina, nor have I combed her hair even once, because I know she's not you. I could distinguish between the two of you very well. Even if her presence pulled me back from the verge of a mental collapse, I know she isn't my daughter no matter how good she is. I learned those skills, especially for my own daughter, so I'll be unfair to you if I use them on Tina. That's why I've never done these things for her; I rarely even hugged her when she was little. I'm telling the truth, Sonny."

Titus added, "What your mom says is true indeed. It's not just your mom; I also rarely hugged Tina. It's true that I doted on her, but I know she's not you. I didn't really have paternal feelings for her and only doted on her like doting on a tool. Perhaps people would say it's too unfeeling of me to do so, but who cares? She's never my birth daughter, anyway. You're always the child whom we love the most."

Julia nodded with a catch in her voice. "Sonny, we've always kept a room for you at home over the last twenty-some years. Your dad and I got presents for you on your birthday every year, and we've been buying clothes for you every year without stopping from when you were born until now. There's a room at home that specifically stores things that your dad and I bought for you. Even Taylor has never touched them; although we really thought at the time that she was you, we never gave her the clothes and birthday presents that we bought for you because there was a voice in my heart that kept stopping me from doing so, saying that I'd definitely regret it for life if I were to do that." Eventually, the facts proved that she was right to believe in her inner voice, or she would've owed one more thing to her daughter today. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Sonia was shocked beyond words; she could tell that Titus and Julia weren't lying to her and that what they said was true… They had actually done so many things for a daughter who might have died more than twenty years ago.

Toby was surprised, too. No wonder they always forbade Tina and me to go to the fourth floor during the few times I visited the Gray Residence while under hypnosis. He was curious about it at the time and had asked Tina about the reason for it, but not even she was aware of what was there on the fourth floor and why her parents wouldn't let her go there. She even said that her parents had always forbidden her to go to the fourth floor and would absolutely teach her a hard lesson if they found out that she had gone there.

There was even once when she had defiantly insisted on going to the fourth floor to find out what was there, but there was a door specifically welded to the stairs leading to the fourth floor. The door was locked all year round, so there was no way to enter the fourth floor without a key. At the time, however, Tina didn't know about that and merely went to the fourth floor, only to get caught on the spot by Titus and Julia. She said she had always remembered that day vividly. Her parents had always doted on her, but they actually gave her a severe beating that day, and Julia even looked at her with a complicated look of hatred in her eyes. Since then, Tina had never gone to the fourth floor again. Even now, she still had no idea what was on the fourth floor.

Now that he had finished listening to Titus and Julia's story, he finally realized that the fourth floor was where the room Titus and Julia had prepared for Sonia was located and where all Sonia's clothes and presents were stored. Their love for Sonia is moving indeed. "Just try it, darling," he said, helping them persuade Sonia.

It wasn't that he was moved by what Titus and Julia had done. As always, he was doing so for Sonia. He didn't believe that she didn't feel anything about what the elderly couple had done for her. She was probably moved deep down as well, which was why he persuaded her to accept their offer. He knew that if she were to reject it now, she would begin to think back to all of this once her hatred for them dissipated after either Titus or Julia passed away. When that happened, she might end up regretting everything that had happened today. He only persuaded her because he didn't want her to become like

that by then.

Titus and Julia never expected Toby to persuade Sonia, though. Although they didn't know why he would help them, it didn't stop them from giving him a grateful smile.

Sonia looked at Titus and Julia before looking at Toby's encouraging eyes. In the end, she bit her lip and mumbled, "Uh-huh."

She said that in a faint whisper, but Titus and Julia heard her nonetheless. Delighted, Julia hurriedly went to the kitchen.

Titus was smiling, too. Even though Sonia neither looked at him nor spoke to him after Julia had left, he was still very pleased. Suddenly, he said, "Sonny, you look very much like your grandmother."

My grandmother? Sonia was startled.
