Chapter 48

Sonia pretended to be asleep to avoid talking to Zane.

When they were about to arrive at Seafield

High School, she took out her phone to ask

Tyler where he was, but she saw the

 

business-related news from her news app

instead.

 

As it turned out, two executives from the

Gray Group’s Norfolk and Fredburg branches had siphoned off 500 million of

the company’s money, causing Titus to pass out in anger.

There was also a photo included below the article of him being sent to the hospital. Someone has stolen Titus‘ money? Great!

As she read the news, Sonia couldn’t help but clap her hands and she even wanted to thank the two executives who fled with Titus’ money.

Ever since she discovered that her family’s bankruptcy had something to do with Titus, she had been trying to gather evidence to help clear her father’s name, but she couldn’t locate anything in the end.

Therefore, she was delighted to see Titus being admitted to the hospital.

When the car arrived at the school gates, Zane parked the car and unfastened his seatbelt while asking Sonia, “What are you

here for? If I remember correctly, you stopped contacting your relatives when your family went bankrupt.”

She glanced at him before she answered,

“I can’t believe that you care about me so

much that you even investigated my background.”

“The two of us are business partners, so it’s normal for me to look into you to

protect my own interest. What’s the problem, President Reed? Do you really think I fancy you that much?” He chuckled and smirked, but she ignored him. “It’s fine if that’s what you’re thinking. I quite like the idea of dating my best friend’s ex-wife just to see how different it feels from dating other women.” While listening to Zane, Sonia found herself speechless. Compared to himwould much rather be with Charles.

She ignored his words and went to report

Tvler’s name to the school’s security guard

She ignored his words and went to report Tyler’s name to the school’s security guard before writing ‘family member’ in the

visitor column on the logbook.

Then, her phone vibrated and she received a new message informing that a sum of money had been credited into her bank

account.

The moment Sonia saw the amount of

money transferred to her, she was

instantly dumbfounded. 100 millionCould
