Zane buckled up with a smile as he replied, “It’s nothing. I simply told her a horror story.”

“Do I look like someone that gullible?” Sonia stared at Zane, rendered speechless by his reply.

After starting the car, Zane wore a defeated expression as he said, “But I’m telling the truth! I can’t do anything about it if you don’t believe in me.”

“This is such a pointless conversation.” Sonia rolled her eyes before averting her gaze.

Abruptly, Zane turned to look at her. “President Reed, I just noticed that you bear some semblance to Julia.”

“Huh?” Sonia was slightly dumbfounded. “I look like her?”

“Yeah.”

“How could that be possible?” Sonia shook her head. “Stop joking!”

“I’m not joking. This is serious. The outline of your face and eyes look exactly like her.” Zane nodded solemnly before adding, “Yeah, they look almost identical. People might believe it even if you claim that you’re her daughter.”

It wasn’t until then that Sonia was certain that Zane wasn’t kidding, which startled her. However, she soon regained her composure enough to wave her hand. “Our likeness with each other doesn’t mean much. There’re a lot of people who look alike, so this isn’t that strange.”

“I guess you’re right,” Zane answered. Neither of them took the discovery to heart, so it was soon forgotten.

After that, Sonia lowered the window to allow some cold air to blow on her face. “By the way, I have a question for you.”

“Speak.” Zane was listening to music as he drove, his body swaying to the rhythm of the music.

Rolling her eyes at the irresponsible driver, Sonia asked, “Do you have a friend whose Messenger’s username is Z-H?”

Due to the loud music, Zane didn’t catch the question
