Daphne, who had been said to be busy with work, was actually not as she remained standing outside
the office, listening to every move in the room.
As she listened to what Charles had just said, her heart felt as if it was slashed by a knife.
Uncontrollably, her eyes turned bright red and she could feel her anger surging from within.
It turns out that President Lane is overjoyed when he doesn't see me.
Ha. It appears that I'm a person who greatly irritates him.
Lifting her head, she took a deep breath and covered half of her face before leaving Sonia's office to
return to the main secretary assistants' office.
Daphne trotted in with her head bowed and her eyes red when Lexi, who had just delivered the coffee,
noticed her agitation. "Miss Daphne, what's the matter with you?" she asked concernedly.
"I'm alright." Daphne sat back down and shook her head at Lexi before wiping her eyes to force out a
smile.
"You've already cried. How is this all right?" Lexi frowned.
Removing her glasses, Daphne explained as she rubbed her eyes. "Thank you for your concern, Lexi.
Don't worry. I'm fine! I just had some sad thoughts and I couldn't hold back all of a sudden."
After she said that, she put on her glasses again and smiled at Lexi.
When Lexi noticed that Daphne was not as depressed as she had been when she first arrived, she
nodded and said, "That's good, then. I'll head back to work first. If there's anything you need help with,
you must let us know and we'll definitely help."
Daphne nodded, her heart feeling warm. "Sure. I will!"
Next door in the president's office…
Sonia and Charles were unaware that Daphne had just overheard their conversation, which had
caused her to leave in distress.
At that moment, Sonia cast a silent glance at Charles.
Having delivered his words, he continued to drink coffee with his head down. Despite the coffee being
so hot and bitter, it seemed that he was gulping it down.
"Alright, alright," Sonia said as she noticed Charles' coffee was about to run out. She quickly stopped
him from drinking it all at once, "Stop drinking, Charles. It's bad for your throat to dunk it down like this."
As such, Charles took a breather. He had no choice because Sonia had grabbed his wrist and it would
be weird for him to resist.
After seeing that Charles had given up on his act and placed down his cup of coffee, she heaved a sigh
of relief. "Your entire personality has changed ever since you came here and saw Daphne."
"Did I?" He frowned, refusing to acknowledge it.
"Alright, alright; you didn't, how 'bout that? Let's not discuss this and move on to the real deal. You just
said you're here to inquire about the rumors on the Internet?" Sonia shifted the topic after helplessly
shaking her head.
In contrast, Charles became solemn when it came to serious matters. It was as if his previous attitude
was just an illusion.
"Yes, I am. But damn, I didn't expect you to be photographed by paparazzis when I went out to meet
with you. Now, there are so many unfounded rumors on the Internet. Ugh, I'm so done with them,"
Charles complained with a darkened expression.
"Yeah, it's quite annoying." Sonia casually nodded in agreement.
"What are the Squirrel Media thinking? Are they not afraid of Toby's retaliation?" Charles smacked his
fist against the table.
Charles had no idea that someone had been planning this for a long time. He simply believed that the
Squirrel Media was just one of the mindless outlets that would do anything for popularity.
"They're completely fearless. They wouldn't risk it if they were afraid," Sonia spoke with a sarcastic
smile plastered on her cheeks.
Charles paused for a few seconds before saying, "I know, right? At this point, I'm not sure if it's
appropriate to admire the squirrels' bravery. They aren't even giving a heck about their future for the
sake of fame. It's absolutely insane." He was still completely unaware of the conspiracy.
Sonia wanted to explain the motive and goals of their rumors. However, she had an epiphany, so she
swallowed her words once again.
Forget it. Let's move on.
If the truth was revealed, Charles' rage may lead him straight to the Lores.
"Oh right, Sonny. Did Toby do you wrong? Does he not believe you?" he asked, clutching his palms
and looking concernedly at her.
In any case, Charles and Sonia were the central figures in the scandal.
Though he was yet to be publicly identified as the mystery man in the photographs, he was still
involved in a controversy with Sonia after all. As a result, he was worried that he would irritate Toby.
On the other hand, women are frequently the ones getting the short end of the stick. It was always
Sonia's fault when she and Toby got into trouble, so Charles did not want to witness any further
suffering from her.
His concern warmed Sonia's heart as she shook her head slightly. "Don't worry, he didn't."
"Really?" Charles remained worried.
She nodded and confirmed, "Yes."
Although Sonia had yet to contact Toby, Tom realized right away that everything on the Internet was
made up and that someone was manipulating her behind her back. Therefore, it would be illogical for
Toby to believe otherwise; if he did, he must have been blind at this point.
It did not matter if Toby did not realize the rumor was false. The most important thing was his strategy
for dealing with this situation.
"That's great news." Charles exhaled a sigh of relief as he patted his chest, adding, "Do you know that I
almost destroyed my accelerator from speeding all the way here? I rushed all the way here because I
was worried that Toby would misunderstand you and dismiss you. It's a huge relief that Toby didn't let
me down."
"He's not a moron. He knows what we did at the hotel that day. Besides, there's no point in me being
with him if he doesn't even believe me," Sonia explained, smiling.
"That's correct, but why does he know what we're doing at the hotel? Did you also tell him what Brian
and I told you last night?" he asked.
"Yeah. Both of you are right. I am yet strong enough to be on my own and I will inevitably ask him for
assistance in the future. It is preferable to simply communicate in this case," she said, tucking her hair
behind her ear.
"You're doing fantastic. He won't have any doubts about us at the hotel now that you've addressed it,
but why haven't you clarified the rumors?"
"As long as we show the hotel surveillance footage and we each clarify on the Internet, this matter can
be solved very easily," Charles said, "but now things have been fermenting for so long, and the
netizens are getting more and more chaotic, but you and Toby seem to have nothing to say. Do you
have any other plans?"
Initially, Charles wanted to stand up and clarify when he saw the scandal on the Internet.
His mother, however, stepped in. Rather than clarifying, his mother instructed him to head to Paradigm
Co. and inquire Sonia's opinion first.
On his way to meet her, Charles had a thousand thoughts. He was familiar with her personality and she
did not appear to be a procrastinator.
She did not seem to be the type to put off her explanations for such a scandal, which would damage
her reputation and jeopardize her relationship with Toby.
The longer they wait to address and clarify the rumors, the harsher the criticism will be.
Even worse, if they did not show up for an extended period of time, everyone would believe the rumors
because not showing up indicated a bad conscience.
Delay, on the other hand, was detrimental to everyone in this case.
