Boss, Your Wife’s Asking for A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 401

Chapter 401 Charity Funds

“You’re right. I’m not the caregiver you hired, Mr. Lane. The caregiver you hired is Miss McKenzie,” Wanda explained.

“That’s right. Miss McKenzie is the one I hired.” Charles nodded a few times before he eyed Wanda puzzledly. “But how did you find out about that?”

Wanda beamed at him. “Miss McKenzie and I are from the same home care services company. She had some urgent matters to deal with at home, so she got me to cover her in taking care of Miss Reed.”

“Is that so?” Charles narrowed his eyes. He clearly still held some suspicion toward the woman in front of him. After all, he hadn’t received any call from the home care services company regarding a change in caregivers.

Wanda nodded. “Of course. You may give the company a call if you don’t believe me, Mr. Lane.”

 

“Do you think I’d be scared to do that?” Charles scoffed before he pulled his phone out to make a call. Two minutes later, he ended the call with a sour look on his face

Sonia felt for the table in front of her before she placed her glass of milk down. “What did they say? Was Wanda telling the truth?”

 

Charles nodded. “Yeah. That brat, Eric, forgot to tell me about it. I’m so mad! How could he forget something so important?!”

Sonia chuckled. “Well, since Wanda was telling the truth, we can just drop the matter. Wanda has been doing an excellent job so far.”

“Thank you for the compliment, Miss Reed. I’m glad to hear that you’re satisfied with our services.” Wanda gave Sonia a kind gaze. Wanda was fully aware of Sonia’s identity as Toby’s ex-wife. However, Wanda used to work in the wet kitchen when she was at the Fullers’ old manor, so she rarely showed up in the living hall. Furthermore, Sonia rarely went to the old manor, so Wanda never got the chance to meet Sonia back then. She had only heard about Sonia through Rose and Mary.

All along, Rose and Mary insisted that Miss Reed was a perfect match for Toby. Now that I’ve met her personally, I agree that she’s a great match. More importantly, Young Master Toby is in love with Miss Reed. I don’t understand why he divorced her if he’s so in love with her. Now, he has to work extra hard to get her to come back to him. Isn’t he just causing more trouble for himself?

“By the way, what brings you here, Charles?” Sonia asked once they had dealt with the matter of the caregiver. Charles placed the mangoes on the table. “I brought you some mangoes, and I wanted to pass a message from my mom. She told you to meet her when you’re free.”

“She wants to see me?” Sonia tilted her head sideways to show her confusion. “Is there anything that she’d like to talk to me about?”

“I’m not sure either. However, judging by the look I saw on my mom’s face, she probably has something to say to you.” Charles nodded.

Sonia was more confused at this point. “If she has something to tell me, why didn’t she just drop me a call?”

“Who knows? Perhaps it’s something that has to be said face-to-face. I guess you’ll find out once you meet up with her.” Charles shrugged

Sonia smiled in return. “I guess that’s the only thing I can do, but I definitely can’t go now. Your mom might get worried and cry if she finds out that I lost my vision. I don’t want to make her worried, so I’ll go once my eyes are healed.”

“I had a feeling you’d say that, so I already told my mom that we would only visit her after some time. My mom was okay with it,” Charles replied with a playful smile on his face.

Sonia smiled in return. “That’s great.” Right then, her phone began to ring. She pulled it out of her pocket and held it up to Charles. “Who’s calling, Charles?”

“Tim,” Charles replied after glancing at the screen.

“I got it.” Sonia took the phone and swiped her finger across the screen, using her muscle memory to pick the call up. “Dr. Lancaster,” she greeted.

“I’ve already sent an application to the charity fund to get money for Alice to pay for treatment. I’ve put in a word and the application will be approved. We’ll get the funds soon,” Tim uttered.
