Boss, Your Wife's Asking For A Divorce, Again novel Chapter 23

Ever since Sonia returned home last night, she was in a bad mood, so she drank until midnight. In a daze, she didn’t sleep long before she was awakened by a phone ringing.

Slowly coming to her senses, she reached for her phone that was on the

bedside table and answered, “Hello?”

“President Reed, it’s me-Daphne.”

Upon hearing the other party’s

spontaneous introduction, Sonia

sobered up a bit and quickly

remembered who she was.

The person on the other end was

Charles’ secretary. Charles was afraid

that after she entered Paradigm Co.,

she would have none of her own

people around her, so he gave his secretary to her

“What’s the matter?” Sonia asked while

walking toward the bathroom.

Daphne informed, “There are a few

urgent documents that you need to

settle at the company. When will you

be coming to the office?”

Sonia figured the matter was very

urgent, so she glanced at the time on

her phone. “Around 8.30AM.”

“All right.”

After hanging up the phone, Sonia washed her face with cold water and lelt much better. But, she drank a lot of wine last night, so her head still hurt. She looked in the mirror, and her

expression was a little unpleasant.

After washing up, Sonia tightly pursed her lips when she left the bedroom and

saw the state of the living room.

I must‘ve been out of my mind last night

to have drunk so much.

When Sonia arrived at the office, it was

8.30AM sharp. She had just set one

foot down in the office when Daphne

appeared behind her.

“President Reed, this is the urgent document that needs to be signed.”

“Okay.” While opening the file, she asked the secretary, “Has the contract with Dwells been signed?”

“Originally, it was supposed to be signed at 9.00AM today, but Dwells

regretted it,” Daphne reported helplessly.

“They’re not signing it anymore?” Sonia

frowned and took out her phone. Til

call Charles and ask him to talk to

them.”

Daphne hurriedly said, “President Reed, don’t call him. He was going to go to

Dwells to talk business with them thi

moming, but after answering a call, he

told me that there’s something at his

company that he needs to deal with, so he’ll deal with Dwells’ contract when he

comes back.”

Upon hearing this, Sonia stopped calling him.

She was so focused on getting Charles

to help that she almost forgot he had

his own company to run and that he

had a lot to deal with too.

Seeing that Sonia was silent, Daphne

asked, “Then, President Reed, may

leave?”

“Help me check Dwells” boss” Itinerary for today.” After taking a deep breath, Sonia ordered her secretary. “Report to me as soon as you find out. I’ll settle

these few documents first.”

Daphne was taken aback. “Didn’t

Charles say to wait for him to come

back to deal with it?”

“He’s very busy as well, so I can’t wait

for him to handle everything.” Sonia

pursed her lips. “Besides, now that I’m

in this position, I have to learn

whatever it is I don’t know yet.

Otherwise, I’ll be criticized before I

secure my position.”

“Okay. You do your work, President Reed. I’ll go find out.” Daphne quickly

left the office, leaving Sonia alone to busy herself with work.

Because Sonia had only recently come

into contact with these matters, added

with the fact that there were many

jargons in the documents, the speed at

which she read the documents was

extremely slow, so by noon, only one third of them had been processed.

After hastily eating the lunch sent by

her secretary, she continued to look

through the rest.

It was only at 2.30PM that she finished

processing all the documents.

Sonia rubbed her sore neck and when

she saw the phone on the table light up

to indicate that there was a new

message, she opened it to check.

Carl: ‘Sonia, the company has arranged

a job for me. I need to go to Palmont for a business trip for two months. Because of the time difference, I can’t

reply to your messages in time. If you

encounter an emergency, you can call the number I left for you.”

Sonia: ‘All right. Take care of yourself

there.”

As soon as Sonia replied to his
