This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr novel Chapter 556

Sonia watched the person leave before she cocked her head to one side in confusion. This person is damn peculiar. They not only act weird, but they also have this weird hatred toward me.

If that person hated her simply because she had accidentally knocked into them, it only meant that the stranger was not a sporting person.

However, if that wasn’t the case, where did the hatred stem from?

As Sonia frowned and wondered about this question, her phone suddenly vibrated.

She momentarily forgot about her thoughts and took out her phone to check what it was—it was a message from Daphne about the matters on the workshop’s renovation.

Sonia typed out her reply, ‘Let’s discuss when I’m back’. Then, she kept her phone away and hailed a cab to return to the villa.

As the main door of the villa was open, she came to the entrance.

She was about to change her shoes when she gasped. “This is...”

The moment she arrived, she noticed a pair of men’s flip-flops below the steps that led to the entrance. She remembered that the pair of flip-flops weren’t there before.

The front of the said footwear now faced Sonia’s direction, which means that the man whom her friend arranged to stay here had already arrived. It was just that he had gone out for the time being.

With that in mind, Sonia frowned as she felt her heart coil from disgust and discomfort.

After all, she had never stayed with an unknown man under the same roof before. So, she didn’t know what sort of man this stranger was, whether he had good or bad intentions, or if they were able to get along well.

Sonia rubbed the spot between her eyebrows, feeling a headache coming on. Forget it, why would I think so much about it? No matter who this man is, whether he’s good or bad, I’ll just keep a distance from him. We won’t meet in the future anyway.

At that thought, she slowly exhaled before she changed her shoes and entered the living room.

An hour later, she had already changed into her evening dress and completed her makeup. She went out the door once again, but with an exquisite purse in hand.

Her friend’s wedding banquet was held at a resort.

By the time Sonia arrived, it was already 9:00PM.

Fortunately, the engagement ceremony would only start at 10:00PM, so Sonia hadn’t arrived too late.

After Sonia entered the resort, she fished out a pill for hangover from her purse to swallow it. Then, she went to the long table and took a glass of wine before spotting a quiet corner to observe the guests at the banquet from.

She was searching for the bigshot in the machinery industry that she had her eyes on—this was her real reason why she agreed to attend the engagement ceremony.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t even have accepted the invitation.

Even though it was a classmate, their friendship had long since faded because they hadn’t been in touch for years.

So, it would be reasonable for her to have declined the invitation.

Sonia sipped some wine as she focused on the main door of the banquet hall.

As she couldn’t locate that bigshot, it probably meant that they hadn’t arrived yet.

So, if she continued to stare at the main door, she probably would be able to spot them.

However, as Sonia continued to wait, she didn’t see the bigshot. Instead, she caught sight of a familiar tall figure. Toby!

Her hand trembled, which almost caused the wine to spill from the glass that she held. Not to mention, her red lips parted as she gaped at him in surprise. Why is he here?

Sonia hastily set the glass down and walked toward Toby.

Soon, she arrived behind Toby and shouted, “President Fuller!”

The moment he heard her voice, his lips curved into a smile. Then, he turned to see her shock as delight danced in his eyes.

Even though he already knew beforehand that she would react like this when she saw him, he still felt elated when he witnessed her surprise with his own eyes.

“We have met again.” As Toby looked at Sonia, he slightly parted his thin lips to speak.

Sonia pursed her lips. “Yes, indeed. Didn’t you say that you were in Kosovo for a business trip? Why are you here?”

He chuckled. “Attending a friend’s engagement ceremony is considered business as well.”

Her expression fell. “So, the business you meant is actually this ceremony?”

Sonia frowned. Why is he talking to me in that affectionate tone? This is exactly why I... I can’t stay mad at him.
