Chapter 996
Sonia had just taken the folder and was about to review it when someone knocked the door. "Come in," she replied while flicking through the schedule.
"President Reed." When the door was opened, an assistant stood at the door frame with one hand holding a blue file and the other hand rested on the doorknob as he announced, "President Lane has arrived to meet with you."
"Charles is here?" Sonia was taken aback.
What brings him here at this time?
"President Reed." Standing in front of her desk, Dapline started to get nervous.
She glanced at Daphne and knew why Daphne was anxious, after which she gestured at Daphne to calm down. "Don't worry or stress about it, Miss Daphne. I know what you're going to say, so rest in my private lounge first."
At that, Sonia indicated at the private lounge in the front. Then, Dapline wrung her hands as she gave a quick smile and sprinted to the said location. As she watched Daphne leaving, Sonia let out a soft sigh because Dapline and Charles had been the ideal working partners in the past. Yet, it was now a dream to watch them interact normally.
Sonia massaged her temples before turning to look at the assistant standing at the door. "Where is Charles right now?"
"President Lane is currently downstairs. He intended to come up, but President Dafoe stopped him as he passed by the area. They're currently having a conversation," the assistant replied.
Sonia frowned.
