This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1222 Sonia’s Mischief

At that moment, the duo exchanged gazes in silence as the atmosphere around them was filled with awkwardness. Meanwhile, Sonia couldn’t help but imagine a dramatic scene in which a flock of birds flew across their heads in a humorous manner.

“Ahem.” Sonia was the first among them to snap out of her trance as she faked a cough. “Well, I suppose that isn’t going to be a big deal either. At least, we both thought about the banquet a few hours before it’s too late. So, now that we’re aware of the occasion, we’re not going to miss it.

We’re going to be there and show the host our respect and support,” explained Sonia in an attempt to hide her embarrassment. After all, she saw the event as an opportunity for her to get to know the host, which was why she wanted to be there, otherwise she wouldn’t have spent so much time and money on a custom-made dress for herself.

Everything I’ve done so far is for me to gain the favor of the host’s wife even easier. The reason Sonia had that thought was because she wanted Paradigm Co. to have a counter in every company under the banquet’s host, which was why the occasion was so important to her.

Therefore, she found it ironic to nearly let such an important occasion slip her mind, thinking her forgetfulness could have mistakenly upset the host at the cost of Paradigm Co’s reputation. Fortunately, I remembered it at the last minute. At the thought of that, Sonia heaved a sigh of relief and said, “No way. I need to bring my dress along so that I can change in the office and set off from there later.”

“There’s no need for that.” Toby stopped her. “We’ll return to the company while you tell your secretary to fetch you your dress later. Once she arrives with your dress, she will wait for my make-up artist, who will give you a makeover downstairs at your company.”

Finding the man’s suggestion a good idea, Sonia nodded in agreement. “Yeah, that’s not a bad idea.” “Get in the car, then.” Toby jutted his chin at the lady.
