Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 419

Sonia had been recently busy and there was also the matter with Rina, so she totally forgot about it.

If Toby hadn’t reminded her, she probably would’ve completely forgotten about Rose’s birthday.

“Got it. I’ll attend the party.” Sonia nodded to confirm her attendance.

Seeing that she agreed to his invitation, he couldn’t help but feel happy. “Alright, I’ll ask someone to send an invitation over later.”

“Okay, I’m hanging up now.” With that, Sonia returned the phone to Wanda, meaning for Wanda to end the call.

She took the phone and asked, “Don’t you want to talk more with Mr. Fuller?”

“There’s nothing to talk about.” Sonia rubbed her temples.

Wanda looked at the phone screen in pity, acting as if she could express her compassion to him through that interface.

“I’ll end the call now then.” Her words were meant not only for Sonia, but also for Toby on the other end of the line.

Upon noticing Sonia ending the call after just a few verbal exchanges, Toby felt nothing but helplessness.

Still, he didn’t have any choice, for he had nothing else to talk about.

Plus, she didn’t seem willing to chat.

Toby let out the smallest of sighs as he replied to Wanda, “Go ahead.”

Upon hearing that, she hung up.

It was that night itself when Sonia received the invitation he mentioned.

She couldn’t see the invitation, so Wanda read it aloud for her. The main points of the invitation were the time and venue

for Old Mrs. Fuller’s birthday celebration.

After committing these details to memory, Sonia asked Wanda to keep the invitation.

Old Mrs. Fuller’s 80th birthday celebration would be held after 2 weeks and Sonia was sure that her eyesight would be recovered by then.

Once she regained her eyesight, she would still have time to prepare her attire to the party and her gift for Old Mrs.

Fuller.

The next day, with Wanda’s help, Sonia finished washing up and sat at the dining table for breakfast.

The doorbell rang at this moment.

Wanda was pouring some milk for Sonia, so when she heard the bell, she placed the milk bottle aside and said, “Miss Reed, I’ll get the door.”

“Okay.” Sonia held a sandwich and took a bite, nodding as she replied.

After wiping her hands on her apron, Wanda walked toward the door.

When the door opened, her face was the first thing Carl saw and he soon narrowed his eyes. “Who are you?”

“I’m Miss Reed’s caregiver,” she replied before asking in return, “And who are you, sir?”

“I’m Carl Lee,” he introduced himself.

Wanda instantly made the connection. “Oh, so you’re Mr. Lee.”

“You know me?” He was a little surprised.

She smiled. “I heard Miss Reed mentioning you before. Come in, Mr. Lee.”

“I see.” Upon hearing that Sonia had mentioned him to Wanda before, Carl seemed to be in a good mood as he smiled. Then, he entered the house as an invited guest.

“Sonia.” Upon arriving at the living room, he caught sight of Sonia, who was having breakfast, so he called her name.

When she heard his voice, Sonia perked up. “What brings you here, Carl?”

“I secured a role in a movie as a supporting character who is also a model, so I’m on the way to the shoot. We were passing by your place, so I dropped by to say hi,” a smiling Carl replied.

With a nod, she responded, “I see. That’s great! You’re surpassing your modeling career and entering the filming industry. Do you intend to go further in the field?”

“Not really. I just thought it’d be fun to try filming, you know. It’s just a phase.” He shook his head.
