Chapter 48
Sonia pretended to be asleep to avoid talking to Zane.
When they were about to arrive at Seafield
High School, she took out her phone to ask
Tyler where he was, but she saw the
business-related news from her news app
instead.
As it turned out, two executives from the
Gray Group’s Norfolk and Fredburg branches had siphoned off 500 million of
the company’s money, causing Titus to pass out in anger.
There was also a photo included below the article of him being sent to the hospital. Someone has stolen Titus‘ money? Great!
As she read the news, Sonia couldn’t help but clap her hands and she even wanted to thank the two executives who fled with Titus’ money.
Ever since she discovered that her family’s bankruptcy had something to do with Titus, she had been trying to gather evidence to help clear her father’s name, but she couldn’t locate anything in the end.
Therefore, she was delighted to see Titus being admitted to the hospital.
When the car arrived at the school gates, Zane parked the car and unfastened his seatbelt while asking Sonia, “What are you
here for? If I remember correctly, you stopped contacting your relatives when your family went bankrupt.”
She glanced at him before she answered,
“I can’t believe that you care about me so
much that you even investigated my background.”
“The two of us are business partners, so it’s normal for me to look into you to
protect my own interest. What’s the problem, President Reed? Do you really think I fancy you that much?” He chuckled and smirked, but she ignored him. “It’s fine if that’s what you’re thinking. I quite like the idea of dating my best friend’s ex-wife just to see how different it feels from dating other women.” While listening to Zane, Sonia found herself speechless. Compared to him, I would much rather be with Charles.
She ignored his words and went to report
Tvler’s name to the school’s security guard
She ignored his words and went to report Tyler’s name to the school’s security guard before writing ‘family member’ in the
visitor column on the logbook.
Then, her phone vibrated and she received a new message informing that a sum of money had been credited into her bank
account.
The moment Sonia saw the amount of
money transferred to her, she was
instantly dumbfounded. 100 million? Could
it be that some company has accidentally transferred their project fund to me?
While she was in a state of shock, she
received another message from Carl on
Messenger.
Carl: ‘Sonia, I’ve recently taken a few jobs
Carl: ‘Sonia, I’ve recently taken a few jobs and made a lot of money. I can’t find anywhere else to spend it, so you can take it in case your company needs the fund!
Sonia: ‘You have just arrived at Palmont. What kind of job did you get that pays you
this much?’
Then, scenes of him subduing the difficult shareholders with his gentle tone when he accompanied her to Paradigm Co. and the store manager’s respectful attitude toward him when they went to the mall started to flash through her mind.
As she reflected on what Charles had
previously said to her, she began to
suspect Carl. Is he really just a model?
Before Carl even had the chance to reply to
Sonia, she sent him another message: ‘Two executives from the Norfolk and
Fredburg branches of Gray Group have stolen 500 million. Carl, does this have anything to do with you?’
After a few seconds, he replied: ‘You mean
to say that someone has stolen Titus’
money? Well, that’s too bad for him. Sonia,
I’m just a model and I don’t even
understand how the corporate world works. Besides, I don’t know any executives from Gray Group, so how could | possibly be able to ask them to steal
Titus’ money?‘
He quickly followed up on his text with a
picture of his contract.
Carl: ‘Sonia, this is my contract with the
Carl: ‘Sonia, this is my contract with the
company. Can you see that the money
stated there is of the same amount that I
have transferred to you?”
Sonia read his contract in detail before she
let out a sigh of relief. However, at the
same time, she felt that she had gone overboard. Then, she texted, I’m sorry,
Carl. I shouldn’t have suspected you of
doing something illegal. After all, you’re only worried about me and the company’
Carl: ‘It’s fine. Sonia, I can’t return to
how much does your shares cost? Why don’t I toss my hat in the ring too?”
court without saying a word. He had been trying to call Sonia since this morning, but she kept rejecting his call. She still isn‘t here. Looks like she won‘t come to help me.
reveal your little secret?” The boy smiled as he continued to tease Tyler. “Sigh! What’s the point of being the Young Master of the Fuller Family if you must obey your family’s orders and can’t even play basketball? Such a pity.” With that, he shook his head and the boys next to him started to laugh.
