This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1004 The Infuriating Tom Brown

Outside the door, Tom kept staring at his watch, estimating in his mind how much time had passed since Xander

left.

Leaning against the wall beside him, Toby suddenly opened his eyes, asking, “How long has it been?”

Tom lowered his wrist and replied, “Three minutes.”

Toby’s eyes narrowed. “Kick the door open!” How could it take that assistant three full minutes just to notify his

boss? Obviously, they didn’t give a damn about him. Since that was the case, he didn’t have to play nice with them

anymore. He would just force his way in.

Tom had been waiting for Toby to say this, so he immediately replied with a smile, “Alright, President Fuller. I’ll get it

done right away.” As soon as he finished his sentence, he stepped back and lifted his foot to kick the door.

However, the instant he kicked out his leg, the door suddenly opened with Xander emerging behind it. As he didn’t

manage to pull back his leg in time, Xander was immediately sent flying by the kick before landing on the steps

leading to the hallway at the back.

Consequently, Xander curled himself into a ball while letting out cries of pain.

No one expected this to happen.

At this moment, Tom still had his foot raised in midair in a kicking posture. He looked at the open door, then Xander,

who was clutching his stomach in pain and rolling on the floor across from him with sweat all over his face. “Uh…

Will you believe me if I say I didn’t mean it?” He slowly lowered his leg as his lips twitched.

When Xander heard this, he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood. Struggling to open his eyes, he stared at Tom with

bloodshot eyes as if to say something. However, thanks to the acute pain in his stomach, he could hardly even

breathe, let alone speak. As a result, he could only curl up on the floor while clutching his stomach with both hands.

Enduring the sharp pain, he glared hard at Tom, as if wanting to skin the latter alive.

Feeling somewhat guilty under his stare, Tom touched the tip of his nose. “Um, sorry, Mr. Little, but I really didn’t

mean it. I’d like to apologize to you, and I’m sorry for what happened. Please don’t take it to heart. I’ll be more

careful to not hurt you again by mistake next time, really,” he apologized with an earnest look, but he didn’t sound

apologetic at all.

Even his face showed no guilt or remorse for having injured Xander by mistake. Instead, all it showed was clear,

unconcealed joy.

That was right: not only did Tom not feel sorry for what he had done, he even felt smug about it. He also didn’t

expect to end up sending Connor’s lackey flying with a kick when all he wanted was to kick the door open. What

does this mean? This means that even God can’t stand the sight of Connor and his lackey, so He purposefully

created the opportunity for me to hit the latter. Otherwise, why would he come to the door just when I was about to

kick it open? That’s the work of fate!

At the thought of this, he almost grinned from ear to ear.

How could Xander not know what Tom was thinking when he saw the latter like this? “Pffft!” He spat out a mouthful

of blood for real. “Y-You…” He pulled his hand away from his stomach, then raised it tremblingly to point at Tom as

if to accuse the latter.

However, he was in so much pain that he didn’t have the strength to say a complete sentence. The hard kick he

had sustained just now made him feel almost like being hit by a truck. In short, now he felt like his insides had been

crushed from the impact, and he nearly passed out from the resulting pain. He felt wretched enough to begin with,

but little did he realize that this b*stard would lie through his teeth. His insides twinged with anger. This *sshole says

he’s sorry, but he doesn’t sound sorry to me at all. The most ridiculous thing is that he says he’ll be careful next

time. Damn it! He’s thinking of doing that again next time!

Seeing how Xander spat out blood and appeared to be dying, Tom opened his mouth and was stunned. “President

Fuller… Could I have hurt him badly?”

Toby had been silently watching the scene all this while. At this moment, he finally raised his eyes and said, “Who

cares? Just deal with it.” With that, he directly strode in through the door before walking toward Xander.

Xander was still lying on the floor when he sensed a shadow looming over him. He looked up to see the man

walking toward him. Tall and expressionless, the man had a powerful and domineering presence that was

impossible to ignore.

Xander stared at Toby in a daze. It wasn’t like he didn’t know what Toby looked like, but he had never seen this guy

with his own eyes. He had only seen Toby in photos and documents. He knew that those in power usually had a

commanding presence. Even so, he never expected that the presence projected by the man before him was so

oppressive that he felt like being grabbed by the throat when all the man did was lower his eyes and dart a look at

him. He dared not even breathe, nor did he have the courage to meet the man’s eyes.

Flustered, he hastily lowered his head to avoid making eye contact with Toby. Only by doing so was he able to

breathe and feel that he was still alive. It was unlike just now, when he felt his blood freeze as though he was going

to die.

This guy really isn’t easy to deal with! he thought to himself, his heart pounding heavily as his body trembled even

more violently. He used to think that his boss was the most intimidating and formidable person on earth who struck

terror into the hearts of whoever that met him. However, he was wrong. The man before him was the most

intimidating and terrifying person he had met so far. He was at least able to look Connor in the eye sometimes, but

he didn’t even have the courage to meet the eyes of the man before him. It was laughable that he had thought that

if he were to meet this man formally, he would take a good look at the latter to see if he was really as intimidating

as he was rumored to be.

It was true that there were rumors circulating in the outside world about how Toby was a demon king and how

scary he was, but he had never believed them. Not only that; he even scoffed at these rumors, thinking that they

were false exaggerations. However, he now finally realized that these rumors were no exaggerations. They were

true, and he was the one with tunnel vision.

On the other hand, Toby didn’t know what Xander was thinking. He merely lowered his eyes and darted a look at

the latter, whom he viewed as nothing but a piece of trash, before withdrawing his gaze and lifting his foot to step

over the man.

Imitating his boss, Tom stepped over Xander as well.

Xander felt humiliated when Toby stepped over him, but the difference between them was so huge that he was still

able to tell himself to calm down and pretend to know nothing. However, when Tom stepped over him, he gnashed

his teeth in hatred and wished he could tear Tom to pieces right away.

Naturally, Tom sensed the murderous gaze behind him, so he looked back and happened to see Xander’s eyes

bulging with anger. Instead of being frightened, he raised his chin with a provoking smile and gave the latter a

taunting thumbs down.

At the sight of this, Xander could no longer restrain himself. Everything went black before his eyes, and he fainted.

Tom raised his eyebrows in surprise upon seeing this. The next instant, he quickly curled his lips and turned his head

back indifferently, with no intention of calling a doctor for the unconscious Xander. To him, Xander was just a lackey

of Connor, so it didn’t matter to him that he fainted. Moreover, he passed out from anger just like that, so he

definitely wasn’t capable of anything. He can’t even endure this little bit of hardship? What an unpresentable good-

for-nothing! To think that he’d pass out just like that.
