Chapter 486 Got Over It

She was only five when her mother passed away. Back then, she had no idea what cancer was, nor did

she have any concept of death. All she knew was her mother was terribly ill and had to stay in the

hospital for a long time. She had wanted to go to the hospital, but her grandfather suddenly came and

took her away. He told her that Lina wanted her to spend the summer vacation with him. “Your mother

will get discharged after summer ends,” he said.

However, after a month, her mother didn’t come back. All she saw was a little urn that contained her

mother.

When she grew up and knew what death was, Sonia burst into tears. She regretted following her

grandfather back then instead of staying with her mother at the hospital. If she did, she could have said

goodbye to her mother.

That wish was finally fulfilled with this video, and she even got to say goodbye to her father. Six years

ago, she also couldn’t say goodbye to her father since he had committed suicide. Fortunately, they

managed to say goodbye to each other in the video.

Sonia ejected the disc and carefully held it, as if it was a priceless treasure. She could no longer hold her

sorrow back, so she let it out in the form of tears. After a long, long time of crying, she finally got

exhausted and drifted to sleep on the table.

Sonia was woken up by the sound of someone ringing the doorbell the next day. When she opened her

eyes and sat up, she realized her whole back was sore and her neck was stiff. Oh, I don’t think I can

move my neck. Dang it. After keeping the CD carefully, she got up and massaged her neck while leaving

her study and heading to the door.

She opened the door only to be greeted by Charles holding a plush toy. “Morning, babe.” He grinned

toothily.

Sonia was amused by his stupid grin, so she smiled. “Morning. Come in.”

However, Charles just stood there, as if he was petrified.

Sonia frowned. “What is it? Why are you just standing there?”

Charles finally snapped out of it and looked at her in surprise. “You’re back to your old self, babe.”

Sonia smiled. “Yes,” she answered curtly.

That piqued Charles’ curiosity. “How did you do that, babe? Did you accept your true identity already?”

Sonia grunted. “Yes, I did.”

“That was fast.” He held her hand and took her to the couch and sat her down. “Tell me, babe. How did

you do it?”

He knew she’d accept the truth sooner or later, since the past couldn’t be changed. It’s not like she can

break ties with the Reeds. However, he never thought she would get over it in a single night. He thought

it would take her a long while to do so.

Sonia pulled a wet tissue out from the tissue box and wiped her eyes. Since she cried a few times the

night before and didn’t remove her makeup before she slept, her eyes felt uncomfortably dry. As she

wiped her eyes, she answered, “There’s a CD in the box Grace gave me. It’s a video my parents

recorded before they died. They knew I’d find out about the truth sooner or later, so they made the video

in case I overthought the matter. They told me they love me as a daughter even though they aren’t my

real parents.” Then, her lips curled into a smile.

Charles looked at her and nodded in realization. “I see.”

“And I got over it.” She locked eyes with Charles. “They took me as one of their own. If I deny them just

because they aren’t my biological parents, then I’m just a piece of trash.”

Charles sat up. “That’s right. Just keep thinking that way. I was worried sick about you last night, and

Mom couldn’t even sleep. After all, she told you the truth, and she felt guilty about you feeling so down.

She kept thinking she did the wrong thing.”

Sonia poured a glass of water for herself. “Sorry, Charles. Sorry for worrying you guys. I’ll call Grace

later,” she said sheepishly.

“Sure.” Charles nodded. Just then, he remembered something, and he stuffed the plush toy into her

hand. “This is for you.”

“Why are you giving me this?” Sonia looked at the cute teddy bear, but she was perplexed.

Charles scratched his head. “I was worried you might still feel sad about the whole thing, so I thought I

should get you something to cheer you up. I wasn’t sure what would be appropriate, but I picked this little

guy in the end. I hope you don’t hate it.”

Sonia chuckled. “Of course not. I love it. Thank you, Charles.” She didn’t really like plush toys, but she’d

never trample on someone’s act of kindness.

The fact that she liked it made Charles smile. “Did you have breakfast already, babe?”

Sonia shook her head. “Not yet.”

“I’ll get some for you. Give me a minute.” Charles stood up.

Sonia nodded. “Sure. I’m going to take a shower and heal my eyes.”

She didn’t need a mirror to know her eyes were red and puffy, since Charles was shocked to see her

when she opened the door. He just didn’t say it out loud.

After Charles was gone, Sonia went to the bathroom to shower. When she was done, Charles was back

with breakfast. They had a quick breakfast before going out and went their own ways. Charles went back

to his place, while Sonia went to Paradigm Co.

After the cars were gone, someone came out from the shadows. The silhouette was holding a phone and

talking to someone.

Back at Fuller Group, Tom nodded. “I see. Come back then.” He hung up and knocked on Toby’s office’s

door.

“Come in,” Toby said solemnly.

When Tom went in, he noticed Toby was leaning against his chair with his eyes closed, and he was

clutching his chest. He was frowning, looking like he was in pain. Tom tensed up when he saw that, and

he went over to him quickly. “What’s wrong, sir?”

Toby opened his eyes and put his hand down. “I’m fine.” He waved Tom off.

“Are you sure? You don’t look so good. Is it your heart—”

“Enough,” Toby interrupted him impatiently. “What is it?”

You’re obviously sick, but you don’t want to talk about it or let anyone ask. Tom sighed, feeling helpless.

“It’s about Miss Reed. When she came out today, she looked like her usual self again. She probably got

over the truth already.”

Toby arched his eyebrow. “That was fast.” Miraculously, he shared Charles’ sentiment in this aspect.

They knew Sonia would get through it, but they never thought it’d be that fast.

Tom nodded. “Yes.”

Toby squinted. “Looks like someone must have told her something, or she couldn’t have got through it

that quickly. Someone like her would doubt herself and ask a lot of questions first before coming to terms

with the truth.”

“Should I look into it then?”

Toby raised his hand. “No, let it be. It’s great that she got through it. Just ignore everything else.”

“Yes,” Tom answered.
