Chapter152.
A cool voice came from behind.
“…Ah? Oh.” Zane didn’t understand, but he obeyed.
He answered the call, “Sophia.”
My voice was gentle and cheerful on the other end. “Zane, what time will you be at the company?”
Zane:“Around nine. What’s up?”
“Well, I’m going to work today, but I haven’t gotten my access card from HR yet, and I don’t know which floor my office is on, so I was wondering if you could pick me up.”
I knew this was presumptuous, but I took advantage of my good relationship with Zane and shamelessly asked him.
Zane laughed. “You haven’t left yet? I’m upstairs. Come up, and you can just go to the company with Mr. Shaw later.”
There was silence on the other end for a few seconds.
I said, “I’ll still meet you at the company.”
There’s no employee who would go to their boss’s house uninvited and then carpool to work with him.
The dining room was quiet; Xander heard everything I said.
He put his juice down on the table. A bit forcefully.
“Are you her elder brother? Tell her to find HR herself!”
His cold tone reached my ears through the phone. I groaned inwardly, Zane was actually taking the call in front of Mr. Shaw. He was so casual!
Zane was embarrassed. He wanted to say answering a call was no big deal.
I quickly said on the phone, “Yes, yes, Zane, give me the HR manager’s contact information, and I’ll contact them myself.”
Zane helplessly replied, “Okay, I’ll send you the HR manager’s contact info.”
I said, “Thank you. See you at the company later.”
I hung up, breathing a sigh of relief at my makeup table. I really shouldn’t have tried for convenience. Now, on my first day at the company, the boss caught me getting a favor from a colleague. My wolf added, “AND ZANE GETS SCOLDED, TOO! HE’S
INNOCENT!”
Two vibrations. Messages from Zane.

I opened Whatsapp. I hadn’t opened Whatsapp since waking up – busy with breakfast, busy with makeup. Now that I opened it, I saw Zane’s messages.
Just as I was about to open them, I saw the message below Zane’s. Everyone had whimsical Whatsapp names, except for him who used his real name. His profile picture was a forest, and his Moments was empty, looking like a zombie account.
Three big characters: Xander Shaw.
Below it, a small line of text: Okay, Baby.
My mind went blank, the shock causing a momentary neurological meltdown.
Baby? Whose baby? My baby? I don’t have a baby for that!!
Wait… this is my Whatsapp, right… MY Whatsapp! MY Whatsapp! MY!!
The baby I called!! I called Xander Shaw baby!!
