“I have announced it in front of the press, so it’s definitely true!” Charles raised his eyebrow. “I’ll bring some candy over tomorrow to celebrate the good news while sharing it with you too, Daphne.”

“Umm, sure…”

As Charles had always been behaving like he was joking, Sonia was used to it. She pushed his hands away in response and impassively strode into her office.

“Get us a pot of tea and a cup of coffee with no sugar, please.” He followed her into her office after instructing Daphne. “Babe, once you’re done with your work, can we talk about the takeover of Continental Co.? I have just conducted an investigation on the company this morning…”

Meanwhile, Daphne kept her eyes on Charles as he walked into the office and she saw the door shut behind him shortly after he entered. His voice was no longer audible due to the closed door. At that moment, she tightened her grip on the documents in her hands while she had a forlorn expression on her face.

Sonia’s mind was still in a state of mess from last night’s fling. She just couldn’t focus on her work while his words went above her head. In the end, she was so annoyed by his chatter that she kicked him out of her office.

It was only at noon that she was able to finally calm down. I’m divorced from Toby, which means I’m currently single. Even if I have a casual fling with a random stranger, it’s not a big deal! The only thing that stumped her was that her tolerance to alcohol was quite good but oddly enough, that wasn’t the case last night. I threw up in the bathroom last night while being fully conscious, so how did I end up in a drunken state?! Furthermore, she couldn’t even recall how she met that man and subsequently made her way into his room.

Sonia suddenly realized that she had torn off that piece of paper on the notepad with his phone number earlier this morning. She subsequently took it out of the pocket of her jacket and searched for his phone number on Messenger.

The other party soon approved her friend request. She immediately flicked a message to him without even waiting for him to initiate the conversation.
