Chapter 1081 Charles Likes Daphne

“Yes.” Sonia kept her phone in her bag before she casually leaned against the seat and stretched. Then, as if she were a furry cat, she curled up in the seat and responded softly, “But Charles and Daphne were university mates who later worked together for a few years.

Throughout that time, they remained purely subordinates. Daphne has never revealed her feelings for Charles, and all this while, he did not dislike her as well. It was after that incident that their relationship changed dramatically, and his attitude toward her deteriorated.”

“Perhaps Charles doesn’t truly dislike your secretary. He is simply refusing to face his feelings for Daphne. As a result, he subconsciously changed his attitude toward her, as if doing so would allow his feelings to remain hidden and undiscovered by others,” Toby said, his gaze fixed on the road ahead of him. Sonia was stunned by his words. “What do you mean?”

“Isn’t it obvious?” He came to a complete stop in front of a red light, giving him enough time to turn around and look at her. “Charles has nothing against your secretary. In fact, the opposite was true. He has feelings for her, but he is unaware of them.

He subconsciously wants to care for her without realizing that this is his love for a woman. Instead, he assumed there was something wrong with him that was caused by Daphne. That’s why his attitude toward her changed.”

Toby’s words hit Sonia like a bomb, leaving her stunned for a few moments before she regained her senses and her voice. “W-What?! Charles has feelings for Daphne, but he is unaware of it?”

Toby gave a nod. “That’s correct.” He then saw the green light was on and resumed his journey.

Sonia, on the other hand, was gripping her seatbelt tightly, her mouth wide open in shock. Her dazed expression indicated that she was still reeling from what Toby said. “How could this be possible?”
