It could be her last day on earth, who knows?Since last night she heard Matthew’s voice, he hadn't shown up again till now. It seems Matthew was always yielding to anything Kayla said, perhaps, Kayla has a strong influence on himIn the room where Sophia lay was an attached room. Must be the bathroom, she guessed.

Cluster Desires Chapter 175: Matthew’s Revenge
“ Joana, I think Matthew is wrong, remember he is a druggie. He can easily react to things negatively” Nanny explained after pondering deeply about the issue. This caused Joana to halt suddenly. Nanny is right. Matthew can be paranoid and react indifferently to things like this. Now she realizes the truth. Matthew is nothing but a beast after all.“ You are right Nanny. But how can Sophia be so daft to ruin her life by signing a contract marriage with Matthew and fooling us? Isn't this grave? How will my uncle feel if he finds out that his precious daughter deceived him all along?” “ I think Sophia regrets this too. But this is not the most important thing now, Joana. Let us find a way of saving her first before any other thing” Nanny persuaded.Exhaling, Joana slumped back into the bed but suddenly jerked, when Simon burst the door open.“ Good morning, Mr Simon, do you need anything?” Nanny cuts in.“ Uncle Simon, I told you to always knock on my door first” Joana replied brokenl
