Chapter 1448 Business Trip
"So, did he go and find Jean then?" Sonia blinked.
Mary shook her head. "No. Although Young Master Fuller said he wouldn't insist on wanting Young Master Toby's
mother's love anymore, he also didn't agree to find another woman. During that time, Young Master Fuller's whole
demeanor seemed to change. He became mentally unstable and often went out to drink. His habits were
completely different from before. He made Old Mrs. Fuller very worried. She even specially hired a psychologist to
give him a checkup, believing that Young Master Fuller had been hurt badly by Young Master Toby's mother. But
Young Master Fuller refused everything, saying he didn't want to see a doctor."
"So, did he eventually see one?" Sonia asked. When people encountered setbacks and unexpected turns in life,
their personalities could indeed undergo significant changes. It was the same for herself. The six years of hardship
she had endured made her shudder to think about it now. How could that be her? Fortunately, she had changed
and was no longer the same as before.
"No." Mary shook her head. "Young Master Fuller may seem mild and easy-going, but when he's stubborn, no one
can handle him. Old Mrs. Fuller was extremely worried, thinking that Young Master Fuller would be like this for the
rest of his life. But one day, he brought Jean back and said he had fallen in love with her and wanted to marry her.
Old Mrs. Fuller was shocked and couldn't believe that Young Master Fuller's taste could be so bad by falling in love
with such a woman."
Sonia stroked her chin and said, "Mary, you just said that his personality completely changed because of Toby's
mother, and his habits were completely opposite. Wasn't it because of this that he fell in love with Jean?"
After all, she had never seen her real mother-in-law, but she knew that her mother-in-law came from a wealthy
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfamily, had a gentle personality, and was knowledgeable and elegant. Jean, on the other hand, was the complete
opposite.
Mary nodded. "Young Mistress Sonia, you're right. Young Master Fuller did fall in love with Jean because of this.
Otherwise, how could he fall in love with Jean? At first, Old Mrs. Fuller was extremely worried about this, but Young
Master Toby's mother was very happy because Young Master Fuller had found the person he loved, and she could
finally divorce him. So, she stopped Old Mrs. Fuller from continuing to look for a psychologist for Young Master
Fuller, not wanting him to change back to his old self. She thought that if he did, her hope of leaving would be
gone."
Sonia furrowed her brow. "She's really…"
She didn't know what to say. After all, as a daughter-in-law, she couldn't speak ill of her elders, especially those who
had already passed away.
"Young Master Toby's mother was indeed rather too much in her actions, and Old Mrs. Fuller also regretted insisting
that Young Master Fuller marry her. Nevertheless, it was too late then as it had been over 10 years. Old Mrs. Fuller
wanted to force Young Master Fuller to see a psychologist, but in the end, Young Master Fuller told her that he knew
the woman he fell in love with was not good enough, but at least they loved each other now. He didn't want to live a
painful life like Young Master Toby's mother. So, his change of taste and preference was actually a good thing. He
hoped Old Mrs. Fuller would approve of it, and that convinced Old Mrs. Fuller."
"So, she eventually agreed to let him and Jean be together?"
Mary smiled. "It's not that easy. She only gave up on finding a psychologist for Young Master Fuller, but she didn't
agree to let Jean into the family so quickly. In the end, Young Master Fuller brought up the family law, saying that if
he accepted punishment according to family law, there was no reason for Old Mrs. Fuller to oppose Jean. After Old
Mrs. Fuller punished Young Master Fuller according to the family law, Jean was finally able to enter the family."
"I see." Sonia nodded in realization. "I was wondering how he could fall in love with Jean. It's not that I look down on
Jean, but the chances of someone like her being accepted by someone from such a wealthy family as his are very
slim. I never thought the real reason was that his preferences suddenly changed. Otherwise, Jean wouldn't have
been able to enter the family at all."
"That's right." Mary took the empty plate she was handed. "You're right, it's not that we look down on Jean's status,
but her character is not good. Even ordinary families wouldn't like her. Although she's not a good person, she's not
inherently bad either. She knows she's guilty and thought it was her presence that made Young Master Toby's
mother unable to accept it and commit suicide. She even proposed breaking up with Young Master Fuller, but he
persuaded her to stay. Even though Young Master Fuller explained that Young Master Toby's mother's death had
nothing to do with her, she still couldn't believe it and carried the guilt in her heart. That's why she treats Young
Master Toby well."
"I know," Sonia said, picking up the conversation. "Toby told me that Jean treats him like her own son. Because of
that, Toby also approves of her as a stepmother."
"In fact, there's one more thing that even Young Master Toby doesn't know," Mary continued. "That's when Jean, for
Young Master Toby's sake, once wanted to abort Young Master Tyler because she was afraid Young Master Toby
would think too much about it. She was scared that she would become biased toward her own son and become a
malicious stepmother who only cared for her own son's well-being and stopped liking Young Master Toby. She went
to the hospital without telling us, and if we hadn't found out in the end, Young Master Tyler might not be here
today."
Sonia was surprised. "I didn't expect her to go this far," she said.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Yeah, none of us did. Even Old Mrs. Fuller finally let go of her grievances against Jean because of this. Before that,
she always disliked and didn't approve of Jean as a daughter-in-law. It was this incident that completely changed Old
Mrs. Fuller's view of Jean. Although she still looks down on and dislikes Jean on the surface, she knows in her heart
that Jean is a good wife," Mary said.
Sonia took another sip of her milk and said, "Thank you for telling me this, Mary."
"No problem. There are many stories in the Fuller Family. If you want to know more, you can ask me. It's just a way
to pass the time," Mary said with a smile.
Sonia agreed happily. After that, Mary went to the kitchen to prepare food ingredients for tomorrow.
Toby had also sent Tyler home and came back. Seeing Sonia reading, he walked over with tenderness in his eyes
and said, "Darling, I'm back."
"Welcome back," Sonia said, moving over to make room for him to sit down.
Toby sat down and took her into his arms. "I'm going on a business trip tomorrow," he said.
Hearing this, Sonia immediately closed her book. "Business trip?"
"Yeah. I'm going to Erendale. There's an issue with a subsidiary over there, so I need to go take a look. I'll be leaving
tomorrow and returning no later than five days from now."
"Oh, okay. Be safe on your trip," Sonia said, looking at him.
Toby kissed her forehead and said, "I will. For the next few days while I'm away, remember to think of me. Also, I'll
increase security measures here."
After all, her safety became his biggest concern when he wasn't around.
"Okay, you take care of it. I trust your arrangements," Sonia said with a smile.
It was no wonder he suggested Tyler come to the hospital and keep her company. He was worried that she would
be lonely while he was away on a business trip. He was really thoughtful and considerate toward her. This feeling of
being constantly cared for by someone was really great.
