Chapter 1000 Where Is Daphne?

 

“No way!” A look of disapproval crossed Sonia’s face as she hastily kept refusing.

 

Daphne was visibly shaken as she stood anxiously behind the lounge door and firmly grasped the door handle with both hands. It was obvious that she was resisting. So, she had to quickly stop Charles from entering the room by blocking the door while thinking that Sonia should give it her all and prevent Charles from entering.

Sonia’s rejection had only fueled Charles’ suspicions as he eventually asked, “Sonny, are you keeping a lover inside, which is why you won’t let me look?”

“What?” Sonia’s lips quivered into a questioning twitch as she answered, “A lover? Am I the kind of person that does that?”

“Explain why you’re blocking my entry if that’s the case.” He rolled his eyes.

“It makes no difference why. I said no.” Sonia’s arm was still outstretched to block his way.

“Could you be anxious because Toby is in the room? That’s not right. If he’s your man, there’s no need to keep him from me. To top it all off, he is a jealous man. If I’m here now, he’ll be out in an instant. So, Sonny, who are you hiding behind closed doors? Are you doing something that might upset Toby?”

 

“Do you believe it is possible?” She rolled her eyes and let out a long sigh.

“It’s impossible,” he replied as he shook his head.

“That’s it,” Sonia stated flatly.

“Why won’t you let me in if you aren’t trying to keep a lover hidden inside and haven’t done anything that would cause Toby any harm? Who is it that you have hidden inside? Why are you acting so suspiciously?” Charles asked while pointing to the lounge that was located behind her.
