Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 47

“Did you tell Rebecca that you needed to work three jobs a day because you are from a poor family?” Sonia chuckled while she looked at Zane with disdain. “It’s such a shame that you are not an actor; otherwise, you will always win the Best Actor Award.”

As he shrugged his shoulders, he explained, “I went to 4S Automation to have my car repaired, but she thought I was an employee there. I tried to tease her, but I never expected her to believe me. Then, she rang me to give you a lift. I really didn’t know that she works for you.”

Sonia rolled her eyes at him. “Are you now setting your sights on her because she is so gullible?”

“Please don’t blame me for this. She’s always the first one to approach me,” he defended himself as if it was a curse to be popular with women. “She’s actually the one hitting on me.”

As she listened to him, Sonia was speechless. However, when she thought about it, it really seemed that Rebecca was actually the one flirting with him.

“President Reed, where do you want to go?” Zane turned around to fasten his seatbelt. “This is my first time driving someone, but I never expected to be driving in such a beat-up car. You really are lucky.” When the car started, he couldn’t help but ridicule Toby again. “The wheel feels so bad. This really is a sh*t car. What a d*ck move from Toby! How can he himself drive a Maybach without leaving you a sports car after the divorce?”

“Why didn’t you call me back after I asked for your help?” Sonia calmly changed the topic of conversation.

Zane gave her a strange look. “I couldn’t find anything wrong with the waiters and water, so there was no point in me returning your call. I’ve seen the surveillance video that night when you stumbled out of the washroom. It’s obvious that you are drunk. You’re thinking too much.” Then, he let out a chuckle and teased, “Miss Reed, you were quite brave last night. Is that the first time Toby has seen you like that?”

There was a moment of silence since she was embarrassed by his words. She was afraid that he would talk nonsense, but in the end, he had used his position as the co-owner of the club to watch the surveillance video!

“Since there’s nothing wrong with the water, we’ll leave it as such. I want to head to Seafield High School. I’m a bit tired, so I’ll take a nap first. Wake me up when we arrive there.” After that, Sonia pretended to sleep and ignored Zane.

Concurrently, over at the Gray Group, Titus had just received the news that Sonia’s Paradigm Co. was interested in acquiring Continental Co. On top of that, she was now trying to get in touch with the owner through her connections. I didn’t expect her to be so capable in such a short period of time.

“However, no matter how capable she is, Paradigm Co. will still fall with just a push!” He gave a cold smile while spreading the news to others. This time, I must destroy Paradigm Co. once and for all!

Titus couldn’t wait to end Paradigm Co. once and for all in memory of his late eldest daughter.

As soon as he gave out his orders, the computer on his desk suddenly flickered as a disk was stuck inside. Just as he was about to press on the keyboard, the desktop screen returned to normal, but there was a video being screened

instead.

The background of the video had good lighting, so he could clearly see the dying person on the floor. The said person was wearing a bloodstained uniform of the Luna Club.

While looking at the man, Titus’ pupils suddenly dilated. He is the person who I was trying to get in touch with. Why is he in the video?

In the meantime, the waiter lying on the floor groaned with his last breath as he was obviously in pain. Soon after, a tall man in a fox mask appeared in the video.

Then, the masked man looked straight at Titus through the camera with his cold eyes. “Hello, President Gray.”

“Who are you? How did you hack into my computer?” While furrowing his brows, Titus tried to shut down the computer, but no matter how hard he pressed the power button, it was to no avail.

The man in the fox mask chuckled in a low yet sexy voice. “Not only can I hack into your company’s server, the phones belonging to you and your wife aren’t safe either because I can easily hack into anything. The reason why I came to you today is to warn you.”
