Chapter 308

Carl smiled. “It’s nothing much. I just called to congratulate you. You’re finally free of all the nasty rumors!”

“Thank you.” A smile formed on Sonia’s face as well. Yeah, my name is finally cleared. I feel so much more relaxed now. “It’s all thanks to Tim,” Sonia continued. “This issue wouldn’t have been resolved so quickly if Tim hadn’t left those two videos behind.”

Upon hearing her words, Carl lowered his gaze a little to conceal the disappointment in his eyes. Why did she say that it‘s all thanks to Tim? I was the one who uploaded those two videos.

“Who is it?” Carl asked.

Sonia headed toward the door. “I’m not sure. I’ll go take a look.”

Sonia didn’t take the bouquet immediately. Instead, she eyed the deliveryman suspiciously. “I’m sorry, but is this a mistake here? I didn’t order any flowers.”

“Someone else gifted it to you,” the deliveryman replied.
