Chapter 341

Chapter 341 Toby’s Finally Awake

Upon hearing that Sonia was looking for Carl, Charles lowered his gaze in despair, but he kept up a jaunty tone as he said, “I thought you were going to ask about something important when you called me, baby. I didn’t think you’d be asking after Carl. I’m hurt.”

“Stop it.” Sonia pinched the space between her brows. “Do you think you could get ahold of Carl’s agent, Charles? Maybe he’ll know where Carl is and if he is at work or someplace else.”

“Fine, I’ll call them up and ask.” Charles raked his fingers through his slightly-mussed hair.

 

Sonia hummed briefly in response. “Thanks for doing this, Charles.”

“It’s no problem at all.” He shook his head, then asked, “By the way, are you going back to Paradigm Co. or will you be recuperating at home today?”

“Probably the former. I’m not doing too poorly anyway, so there’s no point staying home when I can go back to the office.” As she said this, she tried to soothe the dull ache that seemed to thrum beneath the skin of her lower abdomen.

Charles was hoping to persuade her to stay home, but knowing how stubborn she was, he decided against it and sighed as he said, “Fine. I’ll go over and help out with some paperwork. I can only imagine the mountain of documents you’d have to go through after you skipped out on work yesterday.”

Sonia knew that he was only trying to lighten her burden, and her heart warmed at his kind offer. She nodded with a grateful smile. “Okay.”

When the call ended, she put her phone down and stretched lazily, then headed into the bathroom to wash up.
