Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 727

Toby felt delighted after gaining another win. Since he was happy now, he was willing to let Charles go. He cleared his throat and said victoriously, “Alright then. Since you...”

Charles didn’t want to hear his voice, so he interrupted Toby, “Give Sonia the phone.”

Toby frowned. “Why? Wanna snitch? Then you’ve failed. She heard everything we said.”

“You think too highly of yourself. I’m not that much of a sore loser.” Charles snorted. Snitch? Man, I want to, but it’s useless. She wouldn’t stand on my side and scold him. She heard everything we said, but she didn’t even make a sound. It’s obvious she’s not stepping in, so snitching is just a waste of time.

“Knowing where your place is a good trait.” Toby snickered.

Charles closed his eyes and took a deep breath. “Toby, I’m not going to argue with you. Hand her the phone. I have something I need to ask.”

“You can ask me. We’re one and the same. Whatever she knows, I know,” Toby answered. He just didn’t want to give the phone back to Sonia.

Charles rolled his eyes. “As if. I want to ask about my ex-secretary. Do you even know anything about her?”

Toby shut up. Um, no. I know nothing about that.

Sonia shook her head in amusement. “Give it to me. I’ll talk to him.” She extended her hand, and Toby gave her the phone back reluctantly. Sonia put it against her ear. “What do you want to know about Daphne, Charles?”

God, that annoying guy is finally gone. He heaved a sigh, and he cooled down a lot. He stared at the ground and asked, “It’s nothing. I just want to know if she’s acting weird lately.” “Weird?” Sonia tilted her head to the side. “Which part?”

“Um...” Charles sat down and looked around, but he just couldn’t form a coherent sentence.

Sonia thought it was weird. “What’s wrong, Charles?”

“I’m fine.” Charles raised his arm and covered his eyes. “I just want to know if something’s off about her recently. Like her behavior or something.”

“Behavior?” Sonia arched her eyebrow and shook her head. “Everything’s fine with her lately. Why do you want to know about that, Charles? Wait, are you suspecting her?” Did someone buy her off? If that’s the case...

Just when Sonia was starting to take it the wrong way, Charles said again, “No, she’s fine. It’s just that something happened between us and I wanted to know how is she doing.”

“I see.” Sonia nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. I was being paranoid. She was worried someone close to her might have been bought off. After all, getting betrayed by someone she trusted the most would be devastating. Good thing nothing’s wrong with her.

“Okay. Since she’s fine, then I’ll hang up now.” Charles resumed his usual self and hung up. It had been almost two months after that event with Daphne. He was worried she might disobey him and refuse to take the morning after pills so she could get pregnant with his child. After all, Daphne did love him, so he knew it was possible she might do that. That was why he wanted to know if something was off with her, and the best way to find out was to ask Sonia. Once he knew nothing was wrong with her, he heaved a sigh of relief for now.

Yes, for now. He did ask for some doctors’ opinions, and they said some women would only show the symptoms of pregnancy later in the first trimester. That was why he would ask again after a couple of months.

Once the call was over, Toby pulled Sonia out of her chair.
