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

Chapter 850 Chubbier Jean White

Sonia didn’t know what Toby would think of her once he learned that she had lost their outfits.

All she knew was that she was feeling very uneasy, and she desperately wanted someone to be by her side—she

wanted someone she could rely on.

In the past, before she got back together with Toby, she would just grit her teeth and bear with it no matter how

uneasy she felt. The emotion would pass if she just stayed strong enough.

However, now that she had gotten back together with him, she was no longer alone. Naturally, she was going to

depend on him a little.

After all, that was what boyfriends were meant for.

Sonia’s hands curled into fists as insecure thoughts flashed through her mind.

Meanwhile, Toby’s car came to a stop at the Fuller Residence. The moment Toby got out of the car, he spotted a

rather chubby figure happily walking over to him from the front door.

“Toby! Why are you here?” Jean jogged over to Toby. She was panting as she had run toward him out of excitement.

Not only that, she was being weighed down by her chubby figure. Her fat cheeks were bright red from the exertion.

Anyone could tell that she was exhausted.

Toby frowned. “Mom, you should go on a diet. You only ran a short distance, yet you’re panting hard. It’s not good

for you.”

It had been a while since he last saw Jean, and he was shocked to realize that she had grown even fatter since the

last time he saw her.

Previously, her eyes were tiny dots on her face. Now, all that could be seen were two slits.

Jean was upset to hear Toby call her fat. “A diet? Why? I’m just fine. The other ladies say that this is a sign of

prosperity and good luck for our family.”

“They’re lying, yet you believe them?” Toby pursed his lips. “If this is a sign of good fortune, why don’t they look like

you? Why don’t they try bringing good luck to their family?”

His line of questioning stunned Jean.

He had a point; if a plump figure was a sign of prosperity, why were those women so obsessed with slimming down?

Indeed, Jean was not a stupid woman. She soon realized what was going on, and the look on her face was very

unpleasant.

Those women had lied to her!

They had deliberately tricked her so that they could laugh at her. In fact, their goal was to prevent her from

slimming down so that they could mock her.

As for Jean, she thought they were speaking the truth; she even felt proud of herself. To think that they were all

aiming to make fun of her from the start!

It was very likely they had been gossiping about her behind her back.

At that thought, Jean was furious. Due to her chubby figure and intense anger, she was heaving so badly that it

looked like she was going to explode.

Additionally, she was also swaying as if she would collapse at any moment.

Upon seeing that, Toby’s frown deepened. He reached out to support her and said, “Careful.”

Jean gradually calmed down. Then, she happily patted Toby on the back of his hand and said, “You’re still the best,

Toby. Thank goodness you supported me just now. Otherwise, I would’ve collapsed.”

“What happened just now?” Toby asked through pursed lips.

He could tell that something was off about her moments ago.

“Oh, I was just feeling dizzy all of a sudden,” Jean said with a wave of her hand. “My head was throbbing.”

Instantly, Toby understood what had happened.

“It’s high blood pressure,” Toby uttered in a deep voice.

Jean’s eyes widened with disbelief. “High blood pressure?”

“Yes,” Toby said while nodding. “To have those symptoms when you’re agitated means you have high blood

pressure.”

“H-How could I have high blood pressure?” Jean’s jaw dropped in astonishment. “Isn’t that something only elderly

people have?”

“Who told you that?” Toby frowned. “Even young people can have high blood pressure, let alone a middle-aged

woman like you. Additionally, obesity means a higher chance of getting high blood pressure.”

Jean immediately knew what Toby meant by that. Her plump cheeks wobbled as she asked, “Are you saying that I

have high blood pressure because I’m too fat?”

Instead of answering her, Toby merely shot his mother a glance.

“Those women have ruined me!” Jean shouted in fury. “If they hadn’t kept saying it was a sign of good luck, I

wouldn’t have put on so much weight so suddenly! Those women are evil! Toby, you must avenge me!”

She grabbed Toby by the arm, nearly in tears from her rage.

Upon seeing Jean’s crazed eyes, Toby rubbed his throbbing temples. “They were doing something bad, so I will warn

their husbands and let them punish their wives. However, you are also at fault, Mom. You just let your vanity and

thoughts run free. A few flattering words were all it took for you to believe them. Then, you started binge eating.”

Jean guiltily lowered her head.

“I’ll have the doctors do a thorough full-body checkup for you and draw up a personalized diet plan,” Toby said to

her. “I’ll also have some of my people monitor you so that you’ll exercise every day and control your food intake.

Let’s try and slim down as fast as we can.”

“D-Diet?” When Jean heard Toby’s request for her to go on a diet, her face twisted in fear. Refusal radiated from

her as she said, “I don’t want to go on a diet. Toby, can I not?”

She stared at him with a mournful gaze.

After all, everyone knew going on a diet was her greatest fear.

In the past, she had gone on diets before. There were so many things she couldn’t eat, and she had to wake up

early to exercise. It was so exhausting, and it made life so dull and miserable.

If the doctors hadn’t eventually said she wasn’t so fat that it affected her health, she would’ve been tortured to

death by that diet.

Jean even thought that she would never have to go on a diet again after that experience.

Who would’ve known that she would need to go on a diet again and relive that torturous time of her life?

“Nope!” Toby mercilessly answered, acting as if he had not seen the pain in Jean’s face. “You have high blood

pressure because of your obesity. If you don’t slim down, your health will not improve, and the other ladies will

continue to ridicule you. Tyler is also going to be home soon. Do you want him to see you like this and worry about

you every day?”

Upon hearing that, Jean’s eyes widened. She swiftly stood up straight, making the fat on her neck and cheeks

wobble and tremble. “I don’t.”

The three people she cared most about were her husband and her two sons.

In particular, she cared greatly about Tyler, the son she had given birth to.

The thought of her son worrying over his mother every single day upset her.

“If you don’t want that to happen, you have to go on a diet.” Toby narrowed his eyes at Jean.

As she gazed into his eyes that brook no dissent, Jean opened her mouth in an attempt to say something, but she

ended up saying nothing. Instead, she nodded in defeat. “Okay, I’ll go on a diet.”

It was only then that Toby’s face stopped being so unpleasant.

When Jean saw that, she let out a small sigh of relief.

Frankly, she had always been afraid of Toby, particularly when his face clouded over. His anger only increased her

terror.

Now that he didn’t look as upset, she could let out the breath she had been holding in.

“By the way, you haven’t answered me yet, Toby. Why are you back so suddenly?” Jean asked as she changed the

topic. “Will you be staying the night? I’ve been the only one living in this house. It’s so quiet and lonely that I don’t

even have anyone to talk to.”

“I’m only here to pick up something,” Toby calmly said as he smoothened out the sleeve that had been crumpled by

her grip.

The message between the lines was that he would be leaving as soon as he got what he wanted.

As Jean followed Toby through the doors of the Fuller Residence, she asked, “What are you looking for?”

“My mother’s jewelry,” Toby answered, striding into the house without so much as a glance backward.

“Valerie’s jewelry?” Jean paused and asked.

Toby grunted in affirmation, but he didn’t stop walking. Soon, he was about to ascend the staircase.

Jean hurriedly rushed over to him. “Why do you want Valerie’s jewelry? Are you also going to give them to Sonia?”
