Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 816

Zane had fallen in love with Sonia because of her kindness, and more importantly, he could see hope when he looked at her.

Sonia had been so deeply in love with Toby, only to end up getting divorced by the very man she gave her heart to.

It was quite common for women to get their hearts broken by men in their circle. There were even a whole bunch who had it worse than Sonia.

Those women often give up on themselves, and eventually on life However, Sonia, on the other hand, was able to bounce back quickly. She even managed to make herself fall out of love soon after.

She always had that hopeful glint in her eyes. Not only did she not fall into a spiral, she put all her focus into saving the barely-salvageable Paradigm Co., and making it into what it was today.

Sonia was not someone who would stay trapped in a person or in a situation.

She might have battle scars all over her body, but she would always get out as soon as she could. Always one to have the right mentality, she never allowed herself to be drifted by the flow.

She knew that neither heartbreak nor Toby were her life's priority, and so she wasn't going to lose herself for the things and people that didn't matter the most to her.

Instead, she got them out of her head fairly quickly, and with that, she started to create a better, more productive life for herself.

As simple as it might sound, this wasn't something that just anyone could do.

Zane could even go as far as to believe that if Sonia had been forced to act as a puppet of her family, she would have never conformed. Instead, she would break free from them and create a path of her own.

He believed so because she was always someone with a clear head. She knew what she wanted, and she had the courage to go after her dreams.

She was unlike him and the rest of the bunch, who not only weren't gutsy enough, but would always end up being brainwashed by their family values, and eventually live the life they never wanted.

It was Sonia's hopeful gaze that never stopped looking forward that had first caught Zane's interest. At some point, that interest began to turn into romantic feelings.

Now that he listened to her share her plans for the future, he was suddenly hit by the realization that it was impossible for him to let her go.

Sonia soon realized the fiery gaze on her after she had shared her dreams with Zane. "What is wrong?" she asked, a frown on her face.

Fearing that she would see the raw emotions running in his eyes, Zane quickly dropped his gaze and shook his head. "It is nothing. I suddenly remembered something, that's all."

"Oh." Sonia nodded and didn't say anything more.

However, Zane was slightly disappointed by her lukewarm reaction, so he asked, "Are you not going to ask me what came to my mind?"

Sonia gently shook her head again. "What is there for me to ask?

Everyone has a secret or two. 1 don't have to pry into everything."

More importantly, she wasn't at all interested to know what was in his head.

Also, they were only normal friends. She could never be thick-skinned enough to ask him something so private.

Zane shrugged when he saw that Sonia wasn't interested. "Okay, then," he huffed, even though he wouldn't have told her even if she had asked.

I'll probably scare her off if I told her, he mused.

He needed time to calm himself down too.

It had taken him a lot of strength to decide to give up on her, but now that she had rekindled the flame, he was reluctant to give up again.

He knew that it wasn't right of him to act that way, which was why he needed to calm down and adjust his mentality before he did something that he would end up regretting.

The two of them soon fell into silence as they waited for the court session to begin.
