Sorry for Your Loss, It's Me, I'm the Loss novel Chapter 469

Mrs. Thompson Sr. was a stepmother and had never been close with Tobias and his wife.

Back then, the entire Thompson family had been sent down to Megna Hamlet, where Mrs. Thompson Sr. lived. Her father was the village chief then—an honest, kind man who took good care of the displaced Thompsons.

It was under the Monroe family's protection that the Thompsons survived without being torn apart.

Later, Mr. Thompson Sr.'s wife—Tobias's biological mother—passed away from illness. After the family's name was cleared, Mr. Thompson Sr., out of gratitude, married the village chief's daughter, Mrs. Thompson Sr.

Before the marriage, Mrs. Thompson Sr. had seemed just like her father: hardworking, simple, and kind. But after they were married and he got to know her, he discovered she was not only uneducated but also cruel and malicious.

In the beginning, she at least kept up appearances.

But after giving birth to Frank, she felt her position in the family was secure and began to act without restraint.

At the time, Mr. Thompson Sr. was busy with work, leaving both Tobias and Frank in her care. When he wasn't home, she became the archetypal wicked stepmother, abusing Tobias. He was beaten, scolded, and starved. One winter, she even locked him out of the house, intending to let him freeze to death.

A neighbor found Tobias unconscious in the snow and rushed him to the hospital, saving his life.

When Mr. Thompson Sr. learned of this, he was enraged and insisted on a divorce.

Having clawed her way up from a village girl to an officer's wife, Mrs. Thompson Sr. naturally refused.

She threw tantrums, made scenes, threatened suicide, and even held Frank, threatening to die with him.

Fearing for his son's safety, Mr. Thompson Sr. had no choice but to back down.
