Chapter 880 Connor’s Illegitimate Daughter
Nevertheless, Oscar was also impressed by Connor as no one was able to get ahold of his weakness despite
everyone knowing that he was a bad person as well as all the bad things that he had done.
That alone was enough to make one feel impressed.
It was important to note that people would somehow leave a trail or a hint behind when they did something, but not
Connor.
This was enough to show how cautious and manipulative he was, and no one could do anything about it.
Upon hearing what Oscar said, Sonia inhaled deeply. “I can’t believe that Mr. Salzburg is such a cunning man.
Wouldn’t that mean that Carl got injured for nothing?”
Since there was no evidence that Connor harmed Carl, it would mean that Carl had no reason to get revenge on
him.
“Not necessarily.” The corners of Toby’s lips curled up into a cold smile while Sonia watched. He then said, “Don’t
forget that Lucius is not a good man as well. His main personality and alternate personality are both cunning, and
he definitely won’t sit and allow anyone to harm him without getting back at them. Even if he has no evidence, that
doesn’t mean that he won’t get revenge on Connor since there are situations where evidence can be disregarded.”
She couldn’t argue against what he said.
It’s true that evidence isn’t necessary when he already knows who harmed him. I need to think outside the box.
“However, we shouldn’t worry about how Lucius is planning to return Connor’s gesture. Instead, Connor’s style of
operating makes me believe that he’s the Fuller Family’s enemy!” Toby suddenly clenched his fists and exclaimed
with a dark look on his face.
Sonia looked at him. “How so?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Twelve years ago, my father was murdered in a hotel overseas, but no evidence regarding the murderer was
found, so the case has gone cold until now. The car accident that I got into a few months ago was the same as well.
Although it was obvious that someone rammed into me on purpose, no evidence regarding the person behind the
accident was found, so the case was also put aside for the time being.”
Toby met Sonia’s gaze. “Both cases had no evidence or hints regarding the perpetrator. Up until this point, who else
could do these without leaving any trail other than Connor Salzburg?”
“That makes sense!” Sonia came to a realization and quickly nodded. “The modus operandi of the perpetrator is
exactly the same as Connor, and considering the grudge he’s holding against your family, your suspicions might be
legitimate.”
Toby clenched his fists harder, and the cracking sound of his knuckles rang out. “If he’s really behind these cases,
I’ll make sure that he pays with his life!”
His face was cold, and the rims around his eyes turned red. Toby’s voice was extremely chilling and terrifying when
he made that statement.
To him, Connor wasn’t just his father’s murderer. Connor was indirectly related to his mother’s death as well.
Although Toby’s mother committed suicide, it happened because of Connor, so Connor was responsible for both his
parents’ death.
I won’t let Connor off easily just by taking his life!
Noticing that something was off with Toby, Sonia quickly held his hands and consoled him. “Calm down, Toby. Don’t
you remember your advice to not let hatred consume your rationale? Why are you becoming like this as well?”
Upon hearing the woman’s voice, he slowly came back to his senses.
A pang of guilt hit him when he saw Sonia’s anxious look, and he apologized in a hoarse voice, “I’m sorry for
scaring you like that.”
Sonia shook her head. “It’s fine. I wasn’t scared. I was just worried about you.”
Toby pulled her into a hug. “I’m fine. I just lost control of my emotions just now.”
“I know. That’s why I was worried.” She patted his back gently.
The two of them hugged for a while, and Sonia only let Toby go when he had finally calmed down. She then turned
to Oscar, who had to witness the couple’s public display of affection. “By the way, Mr. Woolley, do you know how
Connor Salzburg is related to Anya? Since he found you, and you’re Anya’s attorney, you probably know about their
relationship, don’t you?”
At that, Toby narrowed his eyes at Oscar as well.
Under their scrutinizing gazes, Oscar, who felt extremely pressured, adjusted his glasses again before replying,
“They have a father and daughter relationship.”
“Father and daughter relationship?!” Sonia couldn’t help but exclaim in shock even though she had already guessed
their relationship.
Meanwhile, Toby didn’t look surprised. However, his face had darkened again.
It was obvious that he wasn’t happy knowing that Anya was Connor’s daughter.
In fact, he was furious because he didn’t want to acknowledge the fact that she was Connor’s daughter.
Sonia couldn’t help but feel puzzled at Toby’s reaction. “What’s wrong?”
Instead of answering her, he turned to stare at Oscar. “Connor Salzburg isn’t married, though. Is Anya his
illegitimate daughter?”
“Yes,” Oscar nodded and answered. “I heard from Mr. Salzburg’s personal assistant that Miss Steinfeld is Mr.
Salzburg’s illegitimate daughter that was left to fend for her own, and she finally acknowledged Mr. Salzburg as her
father six months ago due to unknown reasons. However, he did not help Miss Steinfeld to change her last name
right away, and only changed it to Anya Salzburg recently. Despite that, he did not alter any of her other documents
or reveal that she is his daughter to the public, so no one knows that he actually has a daughter.”
“I see.” Sonia nodded in realization while Toby chuckled disdainfully. “If I recall correctly, Anya is 27 years old
currently, isn’t she?”
“Yes,” Oscar answered truthfully.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmImmediately, a disdainful look appeared in his gaze. “Just three years younger than me, huh? That’s good to know!”
Sonia could tell that Toby was seething in anger when he said that.
He’s furious at Connor for having an illegitimate daughter, but why?
Sonia lowered her curious gaze.
Nevertheless, she kept her curiosity and only asked Toby about it after they bade Oscar farewell and returned to the
car, where it was only the two of them.
Still, Toby didn’t not answer her, and his gaze was lowered. It seemed like he was contemplating something.
A while later, he answered in a gloomy tone, “I’m feeling unfair for my mother.”
“You’re feeling unfair for her because she loved Connor, but he had an illegitimate daughter?” Sonia raised her
eyebrows, as she thought Toby didn’t need to feel that way.
Toby’s mother was in love with Connor, and the two of them used to be together. However, she chose to break up
with Connor to get married to Toby’s father in the end, and later, she gave birth to Toby.
Naturally, there was no need for Connor to wait for Toby’s mother since they weren’t together anymore, so it was
unnecessary for Toby to feel unfair for his mother just because Connor had an illegitimate daughter.
When Toby realized what Sonia was thinking about, he stared at her for a while before he pursed his lips and said
without any hint of emotion, “I actually never told you about this, but I wasn’t conceived normally.”
“What do you mean?” Sonia was stunned.
Meanwhile, Toby had both his hands on the steering wheel with a stiff expression on his face. “I was a test-tube
baby.”
“What?!” Sonia gasped before she exclaimed in shock, “A test-tube baby?!”
Nonetheless, Toby had already predicted her reaction.
After parking the car at the side of the road, he mumbled an acknowledgement with his gaze lowered, his face
devoid of any emotions. “I only found out about it when I was going through my mother’s belongings after she
died.”
