Chapter 732 You Don’t Trust Me

When she realized that that was a possibility, she was overwhelmed by a great sense of fear, and it squeezed her heart. With how much Charles disliked her, she knew he would never allow her to be pregnant with his child, but when she went to the hospital to get a checkup, the doctor already confirmed that she was pregnant. If Mr. Lane finds out, he’ll force me to abort. But I don’t want to do that. I want to give birth to this baby.

Sonia was worried about Daphne, since she was looking pale. “Are you alright, Daphne? Why are you looking so pale all of a sudden?”

Daphne stared down. “I’m alright.”

“Really?” Sonia looked at her, obviously not believing Daphne. She looks so pale. That can’t be alright.

“I’m fine, really.” She shook her head adamantly and repeated her earlier question, “Chairman Reed, why did Mr. Lane want to know if I’m acting weird anyway? What does he mean by ‘acting weird?’”

“I’m sorry, Daphne, but I don’t know either. I asked him, but he said nothing. He said something happened between you two, so he wants to know if you’re acting weird lately. That’s all.” Sonia looked at her with an apologetic smile.

Daphne bit her lip, and she started feeling really nervous. “How did you answer him?” If she told him I retched, it’d be a disaster.

Sonia didn’t know why Daphne was so nervous, but she shrugged and answered honestly, “I told him you’re fine.”

Daphne looked at her. “You didn’t tell him I’m feeling unwell?”

Sonia shook her head. “No. You’re feeling unwell because you’re sick. That’s not acting weird. Why should I tell him that?”

Daphne secretly heaved a sigh of relief and looked at Sonia gratefully. “I see. Thank you, Chairman Reed.”

She bowed to Sonia. Good thing she didn’t notice what Mr. Lane was talking about. If not, she might have told him about my retching, and he would have figured out I’m pregnant. He might force me to get the abortion.

Sonia didn’t understand why Daphne was suddenly thanking her, nor did she understand why Daphne looked so relieved. Sonia waved her hands and said, “Don’t mention it. I was just telling the truth. What happened between you guys anyway?”
