Madam Escaped Again Sir

Chapter 1430 Only One Final Enemy Left

While she ate from a fruit platter, Sonia heard Toby mumbling in a corner and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Toby, what were you muttering about earlier?"

He placed his phone down and turned around to send her a gentle smile. "Nothing, just something about work."

He decided not to tell her about Titus turning himself in, thinking that it was best to let Titus tell her himself. If he told her, it wouldn't be as sincere as compared to Titus telling her personally.

Upon hearing that it was about work, Sonia nodded and did not question him any further.

Just then, Tom knocked on the door before entering with a large pile of documents that required Toby's signature. Seeing that, Toby pointed at a small office table where he worked, indicating for Tom to leave the documents there.

While he was there, Tom placed the documents down before turning back toward them and sending a nod toward Toby in greeting. "President Fuller."

"What is it?" Toby asked indifferently as he looked at Sonia's health report.

Meanwhile, Sonia was still holding a platter of slightly sour strawberries and ate from them while looking at Tom.

Tom replied, "Lynette's second trial just ended this morning."

Hearing that, Toby stopped his hand that was flipping through the report.

Sonia placed the fork in her hand down and asked, "Oh, right, looking at the date, today is the day of her trial, but why didn't the court notify us?"Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I instructed them not to some time back so that they wouldn't interrupt your rest." Toby placed the documents aside as he replied, "But I ended up forgetting about it myself."

Sonia was amused at his words. "You keep circling around me these days; I'm sure there's a lot you've forgotten."

She then looked at Tom. "This is the final trial, right?"

"Yes, Mrs. Fuller." Tom nodded. "This is the final trial, and Lynette's verdict is still the same as the first trial, which is the death penalty. She disagreed and made a fuss, and she even tried to appeal again, but her request was denied."

"The court was already being generous by giving her a chance to appeal the hard evidence, so why would they waste their resources to give her a third chance?" Toby asked with an apathetic expression, his voice filled with disdain toward Lynette.

Tom nudged his glasses. "You're right, President Fuller. That's why things have been nailed down this time, and the court has already issued an official announcement. After all, many netizens are paying close attention to the outcome of this matter, and after the trial ends, they definitely have to give the public an explanation."

"Let me see." Upon saying that, Sonia fished out Toby's phone from his pocket.

Her phone had run out of battery, and Toby refused to help her charge it as she might start playing mobile games out of boredom. As a matter of fact, Toby did not completely forbid her from using her phone, but it was because she would easily lose her restraint from having nothing else to do. That was the real reason why Toby did not charge her phone for her.

However, this time, he only watched as she took his phone without stopping her. Either way, she was just reading the news, so he could take it back from her once she was done.

Sonia excitedly leaned against Toby and turned on his phone to look this incident up on the internet. As expected, the moment she opened the web page, Lynette's case instantly appeared without her searching it up.

Upon seeing the comments filled with the netizens' exhilarated cheers, Sonia smiled, not thinking that they were going overboard in the slightest. What Lynette had done was terrible, and it was impossible for one not to be furious. After all, she had cost many people their lives.

Although the Wallace Family were not good people either, they did not have any grudges against her, and her actions were indiscriminate murder. To the netizens, her character would only get worse. The fact that she indiscriminately murdered people meant that Lynette was a sociopath in nature, and there was no telling if she would unleash a rampage on the streets one day. Hence, the death penalty was the best outcome for someone like Lynette.

Sonia voluntarily returned Toby's phone to him before looking at Tom and asking him, "When is the execution?"

"A month later," Tom replied.

"That's fast."

"The death penalty is carried out immediately." Tom explained, "If not because there are other convicts queueing up before her, she would've been executed even sooner and not a month later."

Sonia nodded, indicating that she understood. "Her parents are probably devastated."

Grayson and Amelia must have taken the hardest blow from this news.

Tom nodded. "Actually, they attended the trial this time. Mrs. Lore couldn't withstand the shock and had a stroke on the spot. She's still being resuscitated in the hospital at the moment. As for Mr. Lore, he didn't seem to be in his right mind either, and it looked like he's gone a little off the rails."

"This is the punishment they deserved." Toby said indifferently, "Although they haven't done anything, they raised such a monster, which, in a way, makes their sins even worse. Now, they're naturally paying the price for the monster they had created."

"You're right, President Fuller," Tom agreed, thinking that Toby was making a lot of sense.

Sonia rubbed her stomach and mused, "We have to teach our child well in the future."

"Of course." Toby lifted his chin. "We will naturally guide our child well, and I believe that our child will not disappoint us."

"Why are you so certain?" Sonia looked at him in amusement.

Toby rubbed her stomach. "Because he's our child."

Hearing that, Sonia didn't know if she should laugh or sigh at his words.

As he watched the two lovebirds being lovey-dovey in front of him, Tom gritted his teeth in envy. President Fuller is the worst. He knows that I just got my heart broken, but he's still acting lovey- dovey with Mrs. Fuller in front of me.

Suddenly, Sonia recalled something and asked, "Right, what about Harry?"

Tom replied, "He's still in the detainment center, and it'll take some time before they begin investigating his case."

"Then, does he know about Lynette?"

"He doesn't. President Fuller instructed the police not to inform him," Tom replied with a shake of his head.

"He's not young anymore. If we tell him now, he might die of shock on the spot. Then, the police would have no way of investigating his case. That would've been an easy out for him," Toby explained.

Sonia thought he had a point, so she stopped asking questions.

In any case, the Lore Family's downfall was set, and both Lynette and Harry would certainly meet their doom this time. As for Grayson and Amelia, it depended on whether they had the courage to carry on living.

However, this was not enough to garner anyone's pity. Even if their family seemed pitiful, didn't they bring all of this onto themselves? If they'd been a little kinder, they wouldn't have met their current end.

In any case, they could forget about the Lore Family from now on, and their real target was now Connor and Tina. Only after dealing with these two could she and Toby finally live a peaceful life.

As for Titus… Sonia's eyelids drooped. Her eyes looked conflicted.

Time passed quickly, and Sonia was woken up by Toby the next morning.

Toby looked at her and asked if she remembered what they had to do today. Although Sonia did not respond, it was impossible for her not to know what was about to come.

She had agreed to meet Titus and Julia, and she had insomnia last night because of this. After Toby fell asleep, she remained awake and stared at the dark ceiling for a long time until she eventually drifted off to sleep. However, even after she slept, she was plagued with all kinds of complicated dreams.
