Chapter 836 Is This Karma?

Daphne grabbed Sonia’s hand worriedly. When Sonia saw her assistant’s pale face and bony hands, she let out a sigh before using her other hand to hold Daphne’s. “Calm down. I’m not firing you. I just figured that it’d be bad for you to continue working when you’re pregnant and when your body’s weak. That’s why I wanted you to take a break and rest a little more before coming back to work.”

The child’s father doesn’t know about my pregnancy, so I should abort it as soon as possible so that everything will go back to normal.

I was worried that he might do something rash, but I couldn’t chase after him since I had just rejected his confession. Wouldn’t I be confusing him if I chased after him and showed him my care? That’s why I told Daphne to help me watch over him to make sure he didn’t do anything stupid. I figured that Daphne is his ex-secretary, and they were classmates, after all. I thought it’d
