Sophia looked at him without any hint of anger and said calmly, "I told you, if you lied to me again, I'd kill you. Do you remember?"Chuck anxiously explained, "I didn't lie to you. Everything I said was true. This is just an ordinary bet."Sophia said, "Amber said you all teamed up to fool me again. She even said that I never learn from my mistakes. So what if I 'stole' you? She claims that she can make you come back with just a snap of her fingers. Chuck, I know you could be so disgusting."Chuck anxiously explained, "No, don't listen to her nonsense. I don't like her at all. This time, she called me first. And the last time we played a prank on you, it was also her idea..."Amber was furious. "Chuck!"Chuck fiercely looked at her, "Shut up! I shouldn't have let you come. Now get out!""What did you say?" Amber looked at him in disbelief. "You want me to leave? Are you insane?"Chuck grabbed her collar and pulled her toward the door. "Yes, I want you to leave!""What are you
Chuck pursed his lips, remaining silent.Sophia continued. "I heard she has the most difficult-to-treat type, a long and recurring illness. It's likely that you'll have to carry it for the rest of your life. Oh, and having this disease significantly reduces the chances of you having children. Your family lineage might end with you. Amber is ruthless by seducing you when she knows about her condition.”Chuck was consumed by an overwhelming anger. "She deserves to die."Sophia added, "I'm really fortunate. Amber helped me see through you. A scumbag like you deserves to be tied to a vile woman like Amber for a lifetime."She released her grip with disdain. "I hope I won't be infected by your touch."After letting go, Chuck slumped to the ground like a pile of mud.Sophia smiled. "Considering you're also a victim, I'll leave you some strength to deal with Amber."With that, she cast him a disgusted look and walked away.Chuck remained motionless on the ground. Sophia's words echoed
Everyone gathered and began discussing the matter."Oh my, someone actually wrote this answer?" "Yeah, who wrote it?" "It must be Denver." "It wasn't me. I wrote, 'You look handsome.'" "Then who wrote it?" People searched around, even Amber, who was in pain, and Chuck, who was still regretful, curiously turned their heads in this direction.Just as everyone was searching, suddenly a female voice spoke up. "It was me." At these words, everyone turned to look at her and saw Sophia sitting in a chair with her legs crossed, a faint smile and a look of arrogance on her face.Chuck was completely bewildered. What was going on? Wasn't this a bet they made privately? Amber was equally as confused. Did Sophia participate in this bet they made? Then why did she act like she was wrongly accused?Everyone looked at Sophia. She smiled and extended her hand toward them. "You lost the bet, so pay up." Everyone looked at each other. No one wanted to take out money, so they
Sophia looked at him and smiled. "Can’t you see? It's a class reunion. I'll go home when I want to!"Elliot frowned but still negotiated, "Let's go home together!""I still have unresolved matters. Either wait for me outside, or you can go home first."Elliot's brows furrowed even tighter. "Any issues can be solved tomorrow. Come home with me now." He approached her and tried to hold her hand.Sophia felt irritated and abruptly pulled her hand away. "I said I have things to deal with. Can't you understand simple English?"As her words fell, the temperature in the entire room seemed to drop several degrees. Elliot stared at her. "Are you picking a fight with me?""You started it."Elliot's expression darkened. He stared at her for a while, then took a big step forward, bent down, and lifted her off the ground, turning to leave.Sophia struggled forcefully. "Jerk, let me go!"Elliot warned in a deep voice, "Don't move, or I won't mind trying something else in front of your cla
Elliot was instantly stunned. She already knew? He had hastily dealt with the post the moment he discovered it, fearing that she would misunderstand, but she still found out.Sophia looked at him sharply. "Whether it's true or false, didn't I refrain from questioning you?" She went on. "I forbade you from meeting Wylie, but you still secretly met her. Unable to endure your years of longing, you had to seek physical comfort in a hotel, right? When things escalated online, you didn't explain it to me. You deleted the post instead, as though that would hide the truth. "I'll step aside if you want to continue your unfinished romance with your ex-girlfriend. Like what was mentioned online, do you think I'm so petty I wouldn't divorce you if you asked me to?"She shouted, releasing the accumulated grievances she had suppressed for hours.Elliot felt his head spinning. Why did she think of him like this?"No, I didn't go to a hotel with her. We only met with a designer. The post w
Sophia was surprised to find Phoebe comforting her by revealing her own wounds. A bitter feeling surged in her heart. She shouldn't have come to Phoebe. Despite being truly infuriated, her grievances seemed blown out of proporting compared to Phoebe's experiences.She hugged Phoebe. "You don't need to comfort me. I'll gradually come to terms with it. Although I was really angry at the time and said things in the heat of the moment, most of it was based on a misunderstanding.""Well, Elliot is a very pragmatic person. Chester once said he admires Elliot the most because he keeps his emotions hidden and no one can influence him. Now he's completely drawn into the mortal world because of you. He's completely devoted to you, experiencing joy, anger, and jealousy for you.”She continued, “Sophia, this is your blessing. If you divorce, are you willing to see him go to another woman? Do you want to see him embrace another woman and say he loves her?"Sophia frowned and thought for a mom
Elliot comforted her. "Alright, it's my fault. I should reject all women. Tomorrow, I'll change all the women employees in the company to men. Happy now?"Sophia snorted. "This is moral blackmail. Did I ask you to dismiss all women? Wylie has been malicious ever since I've known her. She pushed me into a mud pit the first time we met, and then falsely accused me of starting the fight. "It's not like I'm interfering with your friendships. I just don't like her. Do you think I get jealous like you?"Elliot laughed at her quirky and temperamental behavior.But..."You already knew her?"Sophia said, "Yes. Wylie is the daughter of my alcoholic father and his ex-wife."Elliot suddenly understood. No wonder.He had always found her a bit peculiar since she was usually straightforward with what she liked and disliked.The first time she met Wylie, she directly forbade him from seeing her. He thought it was because of Wylie's coquettish way of addressing him, but there was more to th
Sophia quickly understood that they probably found out about Jackson secretly helping her. She sighed. Jackson wouldn't have gotten beaten up if she had resolved it last night.She walked over and helped him up, asking, "Are you okay?"He clenched his teeth and said, "I'm fine."Amber stared intensely at Sophia as if she wished she could cut her in half. How could she appear unharmed? Elliot had aggressively carried her away.And yet, here she was, seemingly untouched. How was that possible?Sophia had helped Jackson walk toward the couch. The classmates gathered around the couch were also staring at Sophia. Although they knew that Sophia wasn't one to mess with in a one-on-one fight, shouldn't they take a stand with so many of them?No one wanted to appear weak, especially in front of Jackson who had given up his seat for Sophia. So, they hesitated, silently protesting.However, Sophia approached the couch and kicked a male classmate, saying, "Move!"The male classmate gla
