Chapter 556 Encounter

Sonia watched the person leave before she cocked her head to one side in confusion. This person is damn peculiar. They not only act weird, but they also have this weird hatred toward me.

If that person hated her simply because she had accidentally knocked into them, it only meant that the stranger was not a sporting person.

However, if that wasn’t the case, where did the hatred stem from?

As Sonia frowned and wondered about this question, her phone suddenly vibrated.

She momentarily forgot about her thoughts and took out her phone to check what it was—it was a message from Daphne about the matters on the workshop’s renovation.

Sonia typed out her reply, ‘Let’s discuss when I’m back’. Then, she kept her phone away and hailed a cab to return to the villa.

As the main door of the villa was open, she came to the entrance.

She was about to change her shoes when she gasped. “This is…”

The moment she arrived, she noticed a pair of men’s flip-flops below the steps that led to the entrance. She remembered that the pair of flip-flops weren’t there before.

The front of the said footwear now faced Sonia’s direction, which means that the man whom her friend arranged to stay here had already arrived. It was just that he had gone out for the time being.

With that in mind, Sonia frowned as she felt her heart coil from disgust and discomfort.

After all, she had never stayed with an unknown man under the same roof before. So, she didn’t know what sort of man this stranger was, whether he had good or bad intentions, or if they were able to get along well.

Sonia rubbed the spot between her eyebrows, feeling a headache coming on. Forget it, why would I think so much about it? No matter who this man is, whether he’s good or bad, I’ll just keep a distance from him. We won’t meet in the future anyway.

At that thought, she slowly exhaled before she changed her shoes and entered the living room.

An hour later, she had already changed into her evening dress and completed her makeup. She went out the door once again, but with an exquisite purse in hand.

Her friend’s wedding banquet was held at a resort.

By the time Sonia arrived, it was already 9:00PM.

Fortunately, the engagement ceremony would only start at 10:00PM, so Sonia hadn’t arrived too late.
