Madam Escaped Again Sir novel 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 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. WO 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 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 I 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 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, Tm 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 Seafield for the New Year, so you must remember to take care of yourself.’

Sonia: ‘Okay, you should also look after yourself while you are abroad.’
