Leaving Is Also a Good Thing
Lance was one of Charles’ good friends and Charles thought he knew his friend well enough. To be
able to make a slow poke act so quickly meant that he had a very important place in Lance’s heart.
Otherwise, he would not have put in so much effort to help a friend. Therefore, how could he not be
excited and happy?
As for Sonia, she did not know Lance that well and was unsure of what kind of person he was. It was
not until she heard what Charles said that she finally knew. As such, she was grateful that such a slow
person would be able to finish the job so quickly.
“Maybe because you’re the one who found him. That’s why he’s so quick. Of course, it might be
because he had been the leader for many years and changed his gentle attitude into a fiery one.” Sonia
laughed while making a guess.
Touching his chin, Charles nodded. “What you said makes sense, but no matter what, it’s good that
Lance finished the job swiftly.”
“Yes. That’s why I called you. I wanna ask you to bring him a thank-you gift,” Sonia said.
“Thank-you gift?”
“Yes.”
“For Lance?”
“Who else could it be?” She shrugged. “He gave me a hand in teaching Connor a lesson, so of course,
I have to give him something to thank him. I can’t just sit here and do nothing, can I? Wouldn’t that be
taking things for granted? I can’t do that, so I must prepare a gift. Besides, other than thanking him, I
don’t want to owe him anything either.”
While knocking his fingers on the steering wheel, Charles agreed, “You’re right. You and Lance aren’t
familiar with each other, so it’s best not to owe each other anything.”
“That’s why I came to you. I need to know what he likes. Then, I can prepare the gift and have you
send it over. Also, you would get a thank-you gift too,” she added.
Surprise filled his face again. “What? Me too?”
“Of course! You’re the middleman who helped me get in contact with Lance. I can’t let you do all that
work for nothing, right?”
“Hehe. Then, I’ll thank you in advance.” With excitement, he rubbed his hands together and continued,
“Actually, you don’t have to give me anything and I’d still be willing to help you.”
“I know, but I can’t really do nothing, knowing that you did those things willingly, can I? If I did, what
kind of person would I have become? Forget about that. Tell me what Lance likes. As for you, you don’t
have to say it because I know.” While rubbing her sore shoulders, Sonia urged Charles to speak.
“Alright, so I won’t tell you what I like. You can just prepare anything you see fit. As for Lance, although
he’s the leader of a gang, he can be a child at heart, probably because of his background. He grew up
in an orphanage, and being able to have food to eat and clothes to wear were already considered a
very happy thing for him, so he never had a toy. After he grew up, he liked to buy adult Lego toys, so
you can prepare a limited edition Lego set for him. He will love it,” Charles confirmed.
Nodding slowly, she replied, “Sure. I’ll buy that for him. Thank you, Charles.”
“No worries.” He waved his hand. “Is there anything else?”
“Nope, but even if there is, I don’t think you’d want to hear it.” She then leaned against her chair and
propped up her head while speaking.
That aroused Charles’ interest. “Really? What’s the thing you’re so certain I won’t like to hear?”
“Daphne is leaving abroad to further her career. Do you think you’d want to hear about matters
involving her?” Sonia asked tentatively.
No matter what, Daphne is going to leave the country.
I hope that Charles can put down his hatred for her.
After all, it’s not just her fault that something like that occurred.
Charles also did something wrong.
So, he can’t put all the blame on her and ignore his wrongdoings.
That is something Daphne can’t do alone.
On the other side of the phone, Charles froze when he suddenly heard Sonia mention Daphne.
He had no idea that this was actually about that woman.
It is something I don’t want to hear!
After noting that Charles kept quiet and did not speak, Sonia knew he was upset that she had
mentioned Daphne, so she sighed. “Charles, did you know she’s going to leave the country?”
Although she asked that, she felt that he might not know about it.
Unexpectedly, his answer shocked her for a moment.
“I did.”
“You did?” She was shocked.
He replied with a hum. “She told me.”
Sonia opened her mouth, but it took her a while before she found her voice. “Daphne personally told
you?”
“Yes.” He lied when he added, “She called to tell me.”
Yet, Sonia believed him. “So, that’s how you knew. I thought you still didn’t know about this.”
As she thought about it, it made sense; despite their complicated relationship and Charles’ terrifyingly
cold attitude, he was the person she liked after all.
So, she would want to tell him that she was leaving before she actually left, right?
Perhaps, there had been an element of probing in this matter. She was probing to see if the person she
liked would ask her to stay when hearing that she was leaving.
However, Sonia thought Daphne might have been disappointed in the end.
Judging from Charles’ attitude, it did not seem like he would try to hold on to her.
“I know, but so what? She can leave if she wants to. Does she think I’ll stop her?” While leaning against
the seat again, Charles turned to look at the villa. There was a sullen and complicated expression on
his face that went even unnoticed by himself.
Meanwhile, Sonia rubbed her temples. “Although that’s the truth, you both still had a relationship. Do
you really feel nothing after knowing that she is going to leave?”
“What feeling should I have? I don’t know her that well, so how would I have any feelings for her?” he
stubbornly replied.
Feeling resigned, Sonia shook her head. “Oh, Charles. You’ve known each other for almost a decade.
Now that she’s leaving the country, shouldn’t you at least send her off?”
She wanted to help Daphne fight for a chance.
She believed that Daphne would be happy if the person she liked went to see her off.
Perhaps the reason she told Charles about her departure was not only to see if he would ask her to
stay, but she might also have wished he could send her off.
No matter what the outcome was, Sonia wanted to help Daphne. Yet, she soon realized that she had
underestimated Charles’ coldheartedness.
As soon as he heard Sonia’s words, his eyes darkened. “No. I don’t even want to see her, let alone
send her off. Alright then, Sonia. If you called to tell me these things and ask that I treat her better, then
there’s no need to say anything else. I still have something to do, so I’ll hang up now.”
After saying that, he immediately ended the call without showing any mercy.
Looking at the screen on her phone, which had returned to her homepage, Sonia resignedly shrugged.
Great. My plan to help Daphne has failed.
Charles’ hatred for her is not as simple as I thought.
It seems like it’s almost impossible for those two to make up.
Maybe this is a good thing. Daphne has aborted the child and severed her last connection with
Charles. It’s not a bad thing if they don’t meet each other. At least Daphne can leave without anything
pulling her back.
It’s good that she’s leaving; after she goes abroad, she won’t be missing him.
Who knows? Perhaps she’ll be able to forget him sometime later and find a man she loves there?
Thinking of that, Sonia lightly sighed and put down her phone to continue with work. She busied herself
until the afternoon when Toby appeared in her office. At that, she stood up smiling. “Why did you come
all the way here?”
