Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 522

Sonia said nothing and turned away to look at something else. She knew Titus wasn’t acting, since that was an excuse she made up herself. She had to convince herself that she didn’t help him because she was worried, but because she didn’t want him to scam her by faking his injury and demanding compensation. At this point, she wouldn’t put anything past the Grays.

Since Sonia wasn’t saying anything, and he was in agony, Titus didn’t argue with her. He told Julia to take him to a doctor right away to get some painkillers.

Julia wanted to teach Sonia a lesson and vent her fury, but she had more pressing matters at hand. Hence, she only shot Sonia a glare before taking Titus away. Titus was the family’s pillar, so if he were to fall, a weak woman like her would lose all the family’s fortune to the company’s sly shareholders.

And so, they left, but since Julia went away in a hurry, she didn’t notice Rina staying behind.

Rina was standing face to face with Sonia. “I never thought Tina would kill herself, Miss Reed.”

“It is surprising.” Sonia nodded. She looked at Rina’s face, trying to see through Rina. “You seem happy.”

Rina covered her lips and smiled, exactly like how all the rich ladies in the upper society did. Apparently, she must have gotten around during the time she was here, so she had picked up the art of elegance. Now, Rina had lost all the bumpkin attitude she had back when she first came to Seafield and turned into a confident, well-mannered, and elegant young lady. Anyone would believe it if she said she had never lived in the countryside before.

“Of course,” she crossed her arms and admitted to it. “You saw what my mother was like. Tina might have cut all ties with us, but that doesn’t mean they have forgotten about her. As long as she still lives, Dad and Mom will still always love her. They might have even taken her back after she was released. Now that she’s dead, I don’t have to worry about that anymore, so of course I’m happy.”

Sonia squinted at her and smiled mysteriously. “Is that so? Then I’m sorry to disappoint you.” Tina is still alive, you know.

Rina’s heart skipped a beat. “What do you mean?” Sonia’s smile was unsettling to her.

Sonia pushed her hair back. “It’s nothing. You’ll know in due time.”

“What are you...” Rina wanted to ask her what she was hiding, but when she saw the people coming from behind Sonia, she frowned and swallowed her words.

After Toby was done talking on the phone, he and Tom came back.

Tom was the one who noticed Rina first, and his face turned grim. He then said to Toby who was still looking at his phone,

“Sir. It’s Taylor.”

The mention of that name made Toby put his phone down and looked in Sonia’s direction. Sonia and Rina were standing together and talking about something, but Rina did not look so good. He felt his chest tighten. “Sonia!” he called out to Sonia and quickened his pace.
