Chapter 1307

Sonia bit her lip hesitantly for a couple of seconds. “Actually, there really is one thing. Mrs. Robinson, are you sure Daphne really is furthering her studies abroad?”

The instant the woman on the other end heard this, the smile on her face froze. “Miss Reed, what do you mean by that?”

Sonia forced a smile. “Well, the thing is, a secretary at my company saw someone who looked very much like Daphne when she was out this morning. Daphne’s phone was unreachable the entire time as well, so this secretary of mine wondered if the one she saw was indeed Daphne and whether she wasn’t furthering her studies abroad at all. Mrs. Robinson, as you know, Daphne and I were close, so it’s only natural that I have to find out where she actually is to put my mind at rest, no?”

“Oh, I see.” The woman nodded in relief before smiling again. “Don’t worry, Miss Reed, Daphne is indeed abroad. I think the one your current secretary saw was probably someone who looked like her. Many people look alike nowadays, and besides, Daphne has taken photos of herself with the company while she’s abroad.”

“Is that so? Alright then, I got it, Mrs. Robinson. I’m relieved to hear that she’s still abroad. I shan’t keep you any longer, then. Goodbye, Mrs. Robinson.”

“Goodbye! Feel free to visit my place when you’re free, Miss Reed,” the woman replied cordially.

“Okay,” Sonia responded politely.
