Chapter 971
Although Sonia thought that, she didn't speak it out loud. Instead, she squeezed out some hand wash and replied in
a cold voice, "Not really. We are in the main city of Seafield, and it's not the biggest city in the world. It's normal to
see each other occasionally."
Rina didn't expect Sonia to answer so coldly, and the former's expression froze. "T-That's right."
Sonia raised her eyebrows and paused her hand-washing. She then turned around to look at Rina. "You seem...
nervous since we met. Are you afraid of me?"
Rina's eyes widened and she shouted, "Of course not! I'm not afraid of you. Don't be ridiculous!"
After that, she lowered her head and quickly rubbed her hands.
Her movement was so rough that one would think she would scrap off her skin, and it looked painful.
Sonia squinted and sneered inexplicably. "Ridiculous? I don't think I am. Your expression and behavior are telling me
that you're panicking and uneasy. Before you noticed me, you were calm even after you vomited. After you see me,
you're suddenly panicking, nervous, and scared. I'm now starting to wonder if you did something to offend me."
"No!" Rina sharply raised her head and hurriedly replied, "Miss Reed, I have never done anything to offend you. If I
did, Toby won't ever forgive me."
Rina's expression was sincere as she spoke.
Sonia could tell that Rina was not lying, which was why the former frowned. "Since that's the case, why are you still
nervous when you see me? What are you nervous about?"
Even though Rina didn't do anything to Sonia, Rina's actions were suspicious. They made Sonia think that she was
planning something terrible.
Facing the penetrating gaze, Rina felt guilty and her eyes kept wavering. She did not dare to look Sonia in the eye
as she mumbled, "I'm not nervous—"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Lies!" Sonia couldn't bear to listen anymore and she frowned, saying sternly, "I clearly said you are nervous when
looking at me. However, you are still lying. Taylor Carey, you're a liar. You could rival Titus Gray, you know? As
father as daughter."
These words hit Rina's nerves. She suddenly smiled sarcastically and looked into Sonia's eyes. With an inexplicable
expression, Rina stated, "Thanks for your compliment. However, you are wrong."
I am not Titus' birth daughter.
Indeed, why am I not the Gray Family's birth daughter?
Why did God not let me be the Gray Family's birth daughter?
Looking at Rina's sudden burst of anger and jealousy toward her, Sonia was stunned.
She's jealous?
Why is Rina jealous of me?
Do I have something that she lacks?
The Gray Family is more wealthy and influential than me. I should be the one who is jealous of her.
However, Rina is jealous of me now.
She can't be jealous of my wealth. After all, her family is wealthier than me.
Is it about my looks?
Not to blow my own trumpet, but I am prettier than Rina. However, Rina is not ugly either. With her makeup, she is
now a beauty. I don't think she is jealous of my looks either.
Since it's not about money or looks, it should be men.
Many care about wealth and looks. What comes after those two is love.
Toby has a broad chest and a narrow waist. He is handsome and a billionaire, so he is the best among men.
Therefore, many women want him as their husband.
I can shamelessly attest that most of the rich daughters in Seafield definitely have a crush on Toby, so it isn't
strange that Rina loves Toby too.
Thinking of Rina falling in love with Toby, Sonia's heart sank.
Sonia was convinced that Rina was flustered because she fell in love with Toby and tried to court him. So, she was
guilty when Rina saw Sonia.
It's not impossible, and she will likely do that.
Otherwise, I can't explain her actions.
Thinking of that, Sonia didn't think much about what Rina had said. After staring at Rina and giving an icy chuckle,
Sonia washed away the foam from her hand and left the washroom.
Just wait for me, Toby Fuller.
I'm okay with you attracting every woman in Seafield. However, you drew Rina too.
What in the world?!
Rina didn't know what Sonia was thinking about. However, Rina's heart tightened when she saw Sonia angrily
walking out of the washroom. Rina was afraid Sonia would meet Titus and Julia along the way, so she quickly
stopped Sonia in the heat of the moment. "Please wait a moment, Miss Reed."
Sonia stopped and coldly looked at Rina. "What's the matter?"
Rina squeezed her palm but did not speak immediately as she hesitated.
Seeing this, Sonia frowned with impatience on her face. "I'll leave if you have nothing to say."
Sonia turned her head after speaking.
Rina hurriedly reached out. "Wait. I'll talk now."
Sonia stopped. Although she didn't speak, she still coldly gazed at Rina and waited for her to speak.
Rina bit her lip, took a deep breath, and met Sonia's eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlthough it gave Rina a lot of pressure, she could handle it for her needs.
"Miss Reed, can you leave this restaurant and dine elsewhere? Of course, I will handle your expenses for your
meal."
"Pardon me?" Sonia was stunned by Rina and questions appeared in her mind.
Rina thought she didn't hear it clearly, so she repeated it.
Sonia smiled angrily at that. "Taylor, are you crazy?"
"What?" Rina's face twisted for a moment.
How dare she say I'm crazy?!
"You must be crazy to say those words. Why are you ordering me to leave this restaurant? You're really shameless!"
Sonia crossed her arms and stared at the other woman coldly. She did not hold back.
I don't have to be polite.
Anyone sane won't make people leave the restaurant.
This isn't Rina's restaurant.
What else did she expect when her words angered me?!
Rina never thought that Sonia would insult her. The former's face turned pale with anger as she growled, "You little
—"
"Stop it." Sonia rolled her eyes as she was getting impatient. "I don't understand and am not interested to know why
you are making me leave this restaurant. However, I'm not wrong. You can't make me leave this restaurant. If you
don't want to meet me in this restaurant, then that's your problem and you should leave instead. Either you leave
or hold back reluctantly."
Saying that, Sonia ignored the crazy Rina and left the washroom.
On the other hand, Rina stomped her foot angrily.
However, she stopped quickly and caught up to Sonia. She wanted to know if Sonia would meet her parents.
It'd be best if they don't meet. If they do, I must divert my parents' attention and not let them overthink things.
