This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 1055

Chapter 1055 Mood Swings

Zane could imagine Sonia’s gesture on the other end of the phone even though he could not see it. “I accept your congratulations,” he said cheerfully and added, “and don’t worry, if I get promoted, I’ll be your supporter when I return.”

He thumped his chest with a thud. Sonia could hear it clearly over the phone and her heart trembled. Don’t break your sternum, man. “Thank you!” she replied quickly, interrupting Zane’s thumping.

He actually stopped hitting his chest. He then turned and walked toward his assistant, who was not far away. “Why are you thanking me? We’re friends. Okay, I need to hang up first because I don’t have any signal here. We’ll talk when I return. How about we get together for a meal?”

“Sure!” Sonia nodded in agreement. The call was then disconnected. She hung up the phone and looked at the screen before laughing while shaking her head.

“Is that Mr. Coleman, Miss Reed?” Daphne, who was sitting across from Sonia, asked. “Yeah. He knew about the rumors on the Internet, so he called to check on me,” Sonia explained while nodding.

“Mr. Coleman is a wonderful man,” Daphne stated as she rubbed her chin.

“Yes, he is a good man.” Sonia agreed with a smile before asking, “Oh, right! What are you talking about earlier?”

Daphne’s lips moved and she was about to say something. However, the office door was pushed open the next second.

Her words were cut off and strangled in her throat once more. Ugh… I’m speechless. It seems that even the universe is stopping me from telling her.

Even Sonia was stunned as she laughed at the situation.

The two of them could not stop laughing the next second when Charles’ familiar voice came from outside the office door. “Hey, Sonny.”

When Daphne heard his voice, she became pale. Her pupils shrank and she asked Sonia for help. “Miss Reed…”

Sonia was also nervous at the time.

After all, none of them had expected Charles’ unexpected appearance.

Even if Sonia wanted to help Daphne, she could not even hide her in her lounge.

This was because Charles had already stepped inside.

As she heard footsteps behind her, Daphne’s face turned pale while her body trembled before she lowered her head to the point where it was about to touch her chest.

She was obviously terrified of Charles.

Of course, there was more to it than fear; there was also a guilty conscience.

Charles had no idea she was pregnant and she was afraid to tell him. That was why she was always afraid of meeting him; her main fear was that he would find out she was pregnant.

Looking at Daphne’s cautious demeanor and Charles’ approaching figure, Sonia knew there was no way they could avoid each other and she sighed. That’s it; since they can’t flee, they should just meet calmly. As long as I keep Daphne’s pregnancy a secret…

Sonia coughed lightly as she thought about it. When Daphne looked at her, she gave Daphne a quick look. Keep your cool, Daphne, and don’t put on such a guilty and nervous expression! Otherwise, it will be obvious to Charles.

Daphne realized that it was pointless to be fearful. After receiving Sonia’s reminder, she quickly returned a grateful look, then closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and adjusted her mentality.

At the very least, Daphne should conceal her guilty conscience, nervousness, and panic in front of the man.

Facing Sonia, Daphne squeezed her palm, finally adjusted her emotions and mentality before reverting to the secretary who was calm and composed.

In any case, she was a professionally trained secretary. Of course, she was best at self-regulation.

With that, Sonia was relieved to see that Daphne’s mood had improved. Therefore, she became less anxious.

As such, she did not pay Daphne much attention; she quickly averted her gaze and asked, “Charles, why are you here?”

“I came to see you and discuss the rumors on the Internet.” Charles came to a halt beside Daphne.

The tense Daphne’s body could not help but contract, but she soon relaxed.
