Tina’s eyes went wide in disbelief. He admitted to it. Is he really courting Sonia?

Other than Tina, Melody and Cynthia were also stupefied. In fact, Melody was staring at Zane like she was staring at an idiot. Both of them hailed from prestigious families, so Melody looked down on him for falling for a woman who had once divorced. He’s bringing shame upon all of the upper class society!

 

“Mr. Coleman, are you sure you should be doing this? Miss Reed is…” Tina bit her lip as if there was something about Sonia that she should refrain from commenting about.

Sonia let out a snort of incredulity. “Go on, Miss Gray. What is it that you want to say about me? Are you trying to convey to Zane that I have committed certain atrocities by trailing off mid-sentence as if you’re trying to hide something?”

Tina panicked, as she never thought Sonia would expose her intentions directly, which caught her off guard. Therefore, she shook her head while explaining herself, “No, that’s not what I mean. It’s just that Miss Reed is Toby’s ex-wife, and you’re Toby’s friend, so isn’t it a bad idea to go after Miss Reed?”

“Nope. I think it’s a nice idea,” Zane refuted with a smile. “Although Sonia is Toby’s ex-wife, they’re already divorced, so it’s just normal that I would pursue her.”

 

“But—” Tina seemed to have something else to say.

However, Sonia cut her off. “Is my popularity that much of an eyesore?”

 

“No, I wasn’t—”
