This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 1192

Chapter 1192 Can’t Get a Hold of Her

Rita nodded secretly and decided not to tell Sonia that Charles also knew about this matter. She thought there was no need to mention it.

No matter what, President Lane would never hurt Daphne.

Thinking of that, she felt more at ease and looked at Sonia. “Chairman Reed, do you think my guess about why Daphne’s resigning is right?”

“I don’t know, but there is a possibility that you’re right.” With her lips pursed, Sonia’s eyes were filled with worry for Daphne.

Sonia did not have many female friends and the only two she had were Daphne and Rebecca. However, Rebecca had gone to Westsanshire with Carl and they had not contacted each other for months.

Though Sonia did try to contact her a few times, Rebecca never picked up. Perhaps, she was caught up in her job as a bodyguard, or Carl might have transferred her away from his side and given her another assignment for which she could not freely contact other people.

After all, the last time Sonia contacted Rebecca, she mentioned that Carl still did not trust her and forbade her from being near him.

Ultimately, not being able to contact Rebecca meant Sonia had no idea of Carl’s current situation or Rebecca’s circumstances, which worried her. Still, there was no use worrying if she could not get a hold of Rebecca.

As of now, the only woman by her side with whom she could share women’s secrets was Daphne. Therefore, if something happened to her, Sonia would not be able to be at peace.

“Did you try to call Daphne when you found out she wanted to resign?” She looked at Rita and asked.

Nodding, Rita replied, “Of course, I did, but I can’t get a hold of her.”

“Was the call disconnected?”

“It’s not that.” Rita shook her head while explaining, “The call went through, but she hung up. It seems like she knows that someone will call her to ask about this, so she has no intention of picking up any calls.”

Has no intentions of picking up…

Pulling her lips into a thin line, Sonia became even more worried and certain that Daphne’s resignation was not as simple as she thought.

If she merely wanted to quit working here, why would she try to hide it and not tell anyone? Hence, Rita’s guess was correct. There was something wrong with Daphne’s decision to resign.

Now, the biggest question lay in what had happened to her.

“I understand. I’ll try to contact her later. Thank you for being so considerate, and thank you for telling me this. You did good.” Sonia decided to put aside her worries and squeezed out a smile to thank Rita.

Embarrassed, Rita waved. “Chairman Reed, you’re exaggerating. Daphne and I are like sisters, and this is what I should do. So, I’d have to trouble you for contacting Daphne. If there’s any news, I hope you can tell us because we’re also worried about her.”

“I will,” Sonia agreed.

“Alright, then. Chairman Reed, I’ll be heading out.” With a slight bow, Rita turned around and exited the office.

After Rita left, Sonia did not wait any longer and picked up her phone to call Daphne.

Fortunately, the call went through, but she was worried that what came next would be the same as what Rita had described—declining the call.

If that happened, she would not be able to reach Daphne.

So, please, God, Let Daphne pick up the call.

While tightly clutching her phone, Sonia felt uncertain.

Meanwhile, on the other end of the call…

A ghastly-looking Daphne weakly leaned against the head of the bed while holding a delicate porcelain bowl in her hand. Inside the bowl was a jet-black, unknown liquid.

She lowered her head to drink a mouthful of the liquid. The liquid was so bitter that she scrunched up her face as soon as she drank it.

It was clear that the liquid did not taste good.
