Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 803 Apologizing to Father

If she had pushed him away that day, Charles wouldn’t have hated her even if he refused to accept her feelings.

However, it was too late for regrets since the incident had happened so long ago.

Moreover, she was also pregnant!

Daphne clenched her fists, barely able to control her emotions.

Logically speaking, she should have removed the child as soon as she confirmed that she was pregnant. Simply put,

Daphne had to remove any repercussions from the incident that day.

After all, Charles would never allow her to give birth to the child, much less accept them.

But since she was still in love with Charles, she couldn’t bear to remove the child.

Her sense of reason told her that she should have the child aborted, or the child would be born fatherless. After all,

it wouldn’t be fair for them. It would also be a very selfish decision to make, for she would be giving Charles an

illegitimate child before he even got married.

However, she couldn’t bring herself to do it since her feelings and emotions were in the way.

It had been two months since then, but she still hadn’t made a decision.

As things dragged on, she no longer knew what to do.

“Daphne?” Sonia waved a hand in front of Daphne’s eyes.

Daphne blinked and came to her senses, her lips quivering as she asked, “What’s the matter, Chairman?”

“I should be the one asking you that. You’re in a daze, and you also look very pale. Is it because of me—”

“No, that’s not it.” Daphne hastily waved her hands to deny. “Chairman, it’s not because of you. There’s just

something on my mind right now, so I was a little disheartened. Um… Chairman, may I have a few days off?”

Sonia looked at her. “A few days off?”

“Yes.” Daphne lowered her gaze. “I have to make a decision about something important, so I want to rest and calm

down before I do that.”

“May I know what it is?” Sonia asked.

Daphne pursed her lips and did not answer.

Upon seeing that, Sonia sighed helplessly. “Alright, I won’t force you if you don’t want to talk. Sure, you can have a

few days off. Rest well, and it’s okay to come back to work after everything is settled.”

“Thank you, Chairman.” Daphne sighed in relief. Then, she bowed toward Sonia and bid her goodbye.

Sonia gazed at her figure and said, “Daphne, about just now…”

Daphne paused in her tracks and turned around while smiling at Sonia. “Chairman, I don’t mind what happened just

now, so you should let it go as well. I’m really okay.”

“No matter what, I should still apologize to you.” Sonia pursed her lips.

Even though she had done it out of kindness, she still did the wrong thing and hurt Daphne.

She couldn’t blame anyone else for that, so she should apologize for her actions.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to sleep in peace.

Daphne also understood the guilt Sonia was feeling, so she smiled and nodded. “Fine, apology accepted. Don’t be

too hard on yourself, Chairman.”

“Okay,” Sonia responded.

Daphne waved and continued walking toward the entrance. She soon left the office, disappearing out of sight.

At that moment, Sonia leaned against her chair and gently rubbed her temples as she sighed inwardly.

I should really stop trying to matchmake people so carelessly.

If she failed and upset one of the parties like what happened this time, she would also be found guilty.

She stopped thinking too much about it as she put down her hands and sat upright before burying herself in her

work.

In the afternoon, Sonia received a message from Grace right before the work day ended.

Grace had invited Sonia and Toby to have dinner at the Lane Residence three days later. What was more, the

woman even emphasized that Sonia had to bring Toby along with her.

It seems like Charles was right; Grace really wants to have a word with Toby.

“Chairman.” Suddenly, a knock sounded on the door.

Sonia looked up at the entrance to see that it was Daphne’s assistant.

Daphne had already taken the day off and gone home, so her work was being handled by her assistant for the time

being.

Sonia put down her phone and asked, “What’s the matter?”

“Chairman, there was a call from the police station just now. They said that the court hearing for Vice President

Reed is tomorrow, so please remember to attend.” The assistant let go of the door handle.

Sonia was stunned at first, but she remembered that Jessica had been locked up for so long that it indeed was

about time for a court hearing to take place.

As the plaintiff, she naturally had to attend.

Sonia nodded and smiled at the assistant. “Got it.”

“I’ll take my leave now, Chairman.” The assistant nodded slightly at her.

Sonia hummed in response and said, “Go ahead.”

The assistant closed the door and left, whereas Sonia didn’t think much about this interlude.

After all, Jessica’s court hearing was already set in stone. Sonia would have to attend it no matter if it were

tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.

As such, she just needed to sit in and listen. There was no need to get so worked up since Jessica would definitely be

jailed.

Save for the bad rep her father got from the Grays, Jessica and Sandra had tarnished his reputation as well.

At the thought of Sandra…

Sonia narrowed her eyes, her finger lightly tapping twice on the desk. The taps sounded unusually clear in the

large, quiet office.

Sandra was serving a sentence overseas, so she wouldn’t be coming back anytime soon. Hence, Sonia couldn’t do

anything despite her desire to teach that woman a lesson.

Sonia could only ask Toby to find ways to ship that woman back after she had served her sentence.

While rubbing her temples, Sonia suppressed the hatred in her heart and got up to go to the bathroom.

After washing her face with cold water, the woman finally managed to hush the fire of hatred she held toward

Sandra and Jessica.

Then, she returned to her desk and looked at her phone. Noticing that it was about time, she gathered her things as

she prepared to get off work.

However, after leaving Paradigm Co., Sonia didn’t head straight back to Bayside Residence. Instead, she drove in a

direction away from the place.

She wanted to go to the cemetery to visit her father and tell him about Jessica’s court hearing tomorrow.

No matter what, Jessica was still her father’s biological daughter—that was a fact no one could dispute or deny.

Hence, her father had the right to know about this, and she wanted to apologize to her father as well.

Even though Jessica had stirred things up and provoked her, it was still true that she was the one who sent Jessica

to jail.

Jessica was her father’s biological daughter, but she herself was adopted. She knew her father loved her, but she

also knew he loved Jessica as well.

Naturally, she should apologize to her father for sending his biological daughter to jail.

Sonia managed to arrive at the cemetery by nightfall, and she bought some flowers before going in.

Once she went in, she only came out two hours later.

It was almost 9.00PM by then, and Sonia’s eyes were a little red.

She went to her car and tilted her head to look at the sky. Then, she reached up and wiped a tear away before

opening the door of the car and getting in, ready to go home.

It was already 10.00PM when she went back to the city.

Sonia still hadn’t had dinner, so she was starving. Worse yet, there was a traffic jam, so she didn’t know when she

would be able to make it back to Bayside Residence given the situation.

Toby might even be home by the time I get back.

When she thought about this, Sonia let go of the steering wheel and picked up her phone that was lying on the

passenger seat.

She hadn’t received any missed calls or unread messages, so it seemed like Toby was still working as well.

It was already so late, but Toby hadn’t finished work. Sonia was even more worried now.
