Chapter 178
When Zane saw that she had accepted the flowers, he was slightly relieved, then he laughed arrogantly. “How can other girls compare to you? We’re partners now, so in order to maintain the friendly relationship between us, it’s only right for me to give you flowers.”
Sonia chuckled while shaking the white roses in her arms. “You’re quite a sweet talker. Thank you. The flowers are beautiful.”
Zane pulled out a chair and sat down. “I’m glad you like them.”
“What would you like to drink?” After setting the flowers aside, Sonia handed him a menu.
Zane took a look, then ordered a cup of Blue Mountain coffee.
Sonia, on the other hand, ordered a glass of milk.
In no time, the waiter brought over their coffee and milk.
Zane looked at the milk in Sonia’s hands, then thought about her pregnancy and hesitated for a couple of seconds before asking, “How have you been?”,
“Huh?” Sonia looked up at him. “What do you mean?”
“You’re pregnant. I heard that pregnant women suffer quite a bit during the first few months. Are you feeling any discomfort?” Zane asked.
Sonia heard the concern in his voice and smiled. “I’m fine, but smelling certain strong scents make me feel uncomfortable. Everything else is fine.”
“That’s good.” Nodding, Zane stirred the coffee in the cup. “What are you going to do with the baby? Did my friend tell you his thoughts?”
“Yes,“ Sonia replied after taking a sip of milk.
Zane looked at her. “Then, you—”
“I don’t plan to keep it,” Sonia lowered her gaze and admitted quietly.
Zane was taken aback. “You want to get rid of it?”

“Yeah. I won’t let my child be an illegitimate child, so the only thing I can do is get rid of it,” Sonia said while holding her glass of milk.
Zane opened his mouth. “That’s reasonable.”
She didn’t know that the child in her belly belonged to Toby; she thought it was fathered by a random stranger, so she didn’t think there was anything wrong with getting rid of it.
However, with her personality, even if she knew that the child belonged to Tony, she probably wouldn’t keep it anyway. If she did, the grudge between her, Toby, and Tina would worsen, and her child’s existence would be criticized by the public.
So, it was only right to abort it.
“Since you’ve made the decision, then I won’t advise you further. When’s the operation? I’ll accompany you,” Zane offered with a grin.
In fact, her aborting the baby was a good thing to him.
He loved her, but that didn’t mean that he would love another man’s child.

“It’ll be on a weekend. But you don’t need to accompany me; Charles will go with me,” Sonia replied while smiling.
Zane pursed his lips. “He will? Can he handle it?”
“Enough about that. I didn’t call you out to talk about this.” Sonia waved her hand, not wanting to continue this topic.
Zane shrugged. “Then, what did you want to talk about?”
Sonia took off the daughter’s necklace from around her neck and pushed it toward him.
Zane stared fixedly at the necklace. “Isn’t this the one Mrs. Gray is wearing?”

Previously, when he accompanied Sonia to the hospital to get her feet checked, he bumped into Julia in the parking lot.
At that time, he caught sight of the necklace on her neck.
Sonia’s smile widened. “Take a closer look. Is this really Mrs. Gray’s?”
Raising his eyebrows, Zane did as he was told. After taking a careful look at it, he finally noticed some problems. “These few places are a little different.”
“That’s right. This isn’t Mrs. Gray’s necklace, but it’s largely related to hers. They are mother daughter necklaces. Mrs. Gray’s one is for the mother, while mine is for the daughter. More than 20 years ago, Titus gave it to his eldest daughter, Rina Gray,” Sonia explained while leaning back.
Having understood the situation, Zane lifted his chin. “Isn’t Rina dead? Why is the necklace with you? You can’t possibly be Rina, right?”
Ever since the Coleman Family decided to destroy the Gray family, he had looked into the Gray Family’s background and naturally knew what happened between the Grays and the Reeds more than 20 years ago.
