Chapter 180 No Explaining This One

Menu

Henry's 'I heard' obviously came from Alice. Sonya was sure she must have misunderstood something after learning about the divorce that morning.

"Sonya, we had a peaceful divorce, didn't we?"

"Of course."

"Then why are you spreading rumors about me?"

Sonya didn't answer.

"First, I was trending for kidney deficiency, and I let that slide. But now, you've got people saying I'm infertile? What, just because we got divorced, I'm doomed to have no kids?"

"I swear; I'm just as confused as you are."

"You better clear this up today!"

Sonya racked her brain for an explanation, but before she could figure out how to fix this mess, a faint, breathy moan came through the phone.

The sound was unmistakably... suggestive.

Sonya's stomach churned. Was Henry seriously calling her while messing around with Lyla? Disgusted, Sonya hung up immediately.

Henry heard the call disconnect with a beep and frowned. Just then, he heard Lyla emerging from the bathroom. His expression darkened instantly.

He strode over to the doorway and found her standing in front of the mirror, struggling to remove an eyebrow piercing.

She had pierced it a while ago, but it got snagged on her clothes yesterday. She hadn't paid it much attention, but now it was inflamed and oozing pus, sticking to the metal. Removing it was going to hurt. "What the hell are you doing in my office?" Henry snapped.

Lyla flinched, nearly tearing the skin as her hand jerked in fear. Seeing the storm brewing on his face, she grew even more nervous.

"M-Mr. Sullivan, I-I'm sorry! I'll leave right away."

"Did I say you could go?"

Lyla immediately halted, lowering her head.

"Come with me to a banquet tonight. My assistant will take you shopping for a dress."

"But my eyebrow's swollen..."

"No one's looking at your face."

Lyla fell silent.
