Chapter 1559 The Beautiful Sonia
Lorraine’s expression shifted slightly, and she no longer appeared as calm as before.
Leaning heavily against the backseat, she was so still that the only giveaway to her wakefulness was the persistent massaging of her temples.
Lorraine mumbled, ‘‘She’d better not be lying to me, or she’ll be in hot water.’‘
As she spoke, the woman exuded a cold, ominous aura, causing the chauffeur and her subordinate to stiffen in fear. Instantly, the car plunged into silence.
The chauffeur no longer dared to peek at the temperamental woman in the backseat and turned his full attention to the road.
On the other hand, Lorraine’s subordinate in the front passenger seat composed himself quickly after a brief change in his expression.
He piped up, ‘‘That was just an offhanded comment. She might be telling the truth. There’s no need to become so tense.’‘
However, his words did not raise Lorraine out of her funk. Instead, she looked out the window and murmured, ‘‘What do you all think of Sonia?’‘
‘‘She’s beautiful!’‘ answered the chauffeur unthinkingly.
His answer drew a laugh out of Lorraine. She chortled and said, ‘‘You’re right! She’s beautiful!’‘
Her reaction befuddled the chauffeur, who settled for a few awkward laughs in response. Lorraine did not say anything more and fell back into contemplative silence.
Her hotel was not that far from Sonia’s house, and they arrived in no time, especially since the chauffeur deliberately drove faster.
Immediately, Lorraine spotted the police from afar.
‘‘Ms. Lorraine, this appears rather troublesome. Why are there policemen in front of her house?’‘ The chauffeur shot Lorraine a cautious look.
