This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

……

Sonia was in a great mood after witnessing the drama. When she took the elevator to the basement

parking lot, she saw a familiar face.

“President Reed.”

She quickly recognized the tall and slender woman in front of her. “Rebecca Harper?”

Rebecca was Charles’ ex-classmate. She was initially about to work for his company, but when he

learned that Sonia did not have any support in Paradigm Co,, he asked Rebecca to help Sonia out.

Even though Sonia had been recently busy, she knew that Rebecca worked at the finance department as

an accountant and she was rather careful at the job.

“There are many employees in the company, so I’m quite surprised that you remember me.” Rebecca

smiled as she held a cake in her hand. “There’s a dessert store here that serves tasty desserts. I’m on

my off day today, so I’m here to buy some desserts. What about you, President Reed? Are you here to

buy some clothes?”

“It’s Charles’ birthday today, so I’m here to buy some presents for him.” Sonia shook the bag in her hand.

“Do you have any plans tonight?”

“No. I just plan to head home and watch a few movies on the couch.”

“Why don’t you join our celebration? The more the merrier. Since you are his ex-classmate, we are all

familiar with each other,” Sonia responded.

“Since you have invited me, I’ll gladly join you, President Reed!” Rebecca did not reject Sonia and

pressed the button on the elevator to head down. “Let’s go to the second floor then. I’m going to buy a

lighter for him. After all, I can’t attend his birthday celebration empty handed.”

Rebecca had the looks of an innocent girl. She was fair, slender and exceptionally beautiful, but she was

a chatterbox at the same time. Once she started speaking, it was difficult for her to stop, so she became

loquacious.

This was the first time that Sonia had met someone even more talkative than Charles, so she felt quite

exasperated about it.

Just as she was about to bring Rebecca to Luna Club, Charles gave her a ring. “My grandmother has

insisted on spending the night with me and wants me to return home to have dinner together. Argh! I

guess I’ll only arrive at Luna Club by around 10:00PM.”

“Sure. We’ll have dinner first before we’ll wait for you in the private room there.” After she hung up the

call, she brought Rebecca for dinner.

Once they found a spot, Rebecca looked around before asking Sonia, “President Reed, I heard that you

need to inform Luna Club your salary range before you could enter. Is that true?”

“Yeah, so I booked the place under Charles’ name.”

“Why didn’t you use President Fuller’s name? Aren’t you guys married? It is probably more convenient to

just use his card,” Rebecca asked curiously.

Sonia’s expression did not change much, but she asked indifferently, “How did you know that we are

married to each other?”

“Everyone knows that. It’s not a secret after all.” Rebecca shrugged. “However, I’m curious—you are his

wife and Paradigm Co. has not been doing well lately. Why didn’t President Fuller help you out?”

After many years of marriage, he didn’t even look at me, let alone help me. “He has way too many things

on his hands, so he’s rather busy.” Sonia lowered her head to look at the cup of tea in her hands. “I’ve

already divorced him a few weeks ago, so I’m no longer his wife.”

Upon hearing that, a shocked Rebecca exclaimed, “Oh! I see.”

She quickly saw that talking about this topic had rendered Sonia in a terrible mood, so she lifted her cup

of tea and toasted Sonia. “Congratulations for becoming single again, President Reed! It’s great to be

single—we don’t have so much to worry about. It’s an amazing thing! If you want to remarry, you can

consider Charles! Since you guys grew up together and he takes good care of you, you guys are beyond

compatible!”

Sonia smiled after she heard Rebecca’s jokes as it helped to lift her mood quite a bit.

When dinner was over, she chatted with Rebecca while they walked around the place. She planned to

head to the private room to start the karaoke while waiting for Charles to arrive.

Just as Sonia and Rebecca walked out of the restaurant, they met a few women.

Sonia was about to make way for those women, but she did not expect that Tina and her friend, whom

she saw at the watch store in the afternoon, were among them.

Upon seeing this, she was stunned.

As Tina did not expect to see Sonia twice in a day, she almost failed to maintain her composure.

“Miss Reed.” This time around, she forcefully spoke through gritted teeth. “I heard that Paradigm Co. isn’t

doing quite well recently. You’d need to reveal your salary here.”

Sonia merely gave a slight smile. “Yeah, I know. I’m using my boyfriend’s card. Do you have anything

else to say about that, Miss Gray?”

Tina’s pink lips were pressed together in a firm line, but she soon recalled something and answered

gently, “I’m about to play some card games with my friends and we are one person short. It’s good that

we met here. Since we are all acquainted with each other, let’s play a few rounds together.”

With that, she introduced Sonia to her friends. “Meet Sonia Reed, the vice-president of Paradigm Co.”

As Tina spoke respectfully to the woman next to her and even lowered her stance in a slightly ingratiating

way, it made Sonia take a second look at the woman, who wore a beautiful black dress. It made the

woman stand out and overpower her peers with just her looks.

“Who is this Miss Gray? Why is she so defensive toward you?” Rebecca inched closer to Sonia and

asked quietly.

“My ex-husband’s lover.”
