Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1324

After Tom left, Sonia began eating with the nurse and Rita's help.

The brunch the nurse bought for her was bland to the degree that it was only a little salty and lacked other interesting tastes. After all, she had to compromise with limited food options since her current condition forbade her to eat nothing but bland food.

She did not have any complaints about the tasteless food. She was well aware of the importance of following the doctor's advice and taking care of her body for the time being.

She could go to Toby's side and take care of him as soon as possible, but only if she recovered sooner.

Sonia needed him. Indeed, she would not deny the fact that she needed him instead of the other way around.

Toby could have avoided the pain and misfortune if it had not been for Sonia implicating him.

She had to see for herself that he was recovering. Or else, she could never forgive herself. That was the reason why she needed him.

"Yikes! I can't believe I forgot to ask Tom how Asher got arrested in the first place." In the middle of brunch, she slapped her thigh hard suddenly as realization belatedly dawned on her.

However, Tom had left a while ago.

Rita found Sonia's behavior amusing. "President Reed, don't fret. He'll be visiting later and you can ask him then. Besides, Asher was only arrested not long ago. The police are still interrogating him on his methods and motives. By that time, he could brief you on the results in one go, and you could avoid wasting your time."

"You're right." Sonia nodded, agreeing with Rita's words. Thus, she put the thought aside and continued having her food.

Asher was apprehended and he couldn't get out of jail for the time being, anyway. She could always ask about his situation sometime later.

It turned out she had the right guess.

Just when she finished brunch, the representative of the police approached her. It was the civilian police officer from last night.

Learning from Tom that Sonia was awake, the officer visited her to record her statement. After all, she was the victim. According to their procedure, the police were bound to ask her a few questions.

"Good afternoon, Miss Reed," the officer greeted her before taking a seat next to her bed.

She cast a slight nod in his direction. "Good afternoon to you too."

"How are you doing, Miss Reed?" he expressed his concerns about her health.

She smiled. "My lungs still hurt, and I'm suffering from a vision problem. Apart from that, I'm doing just fine."

"Get well soon, Miss Reed," the officer said.

Sonia hummed a response. "Thank you. Are you here for Asher?"

"Yes." He flipped open the notebook that he always carried and twisted open his fountain pen to record her statement. "First of all, Miss Reed, is there any animosity between you and Asher Dafoe?"
