Sorry, My Darling Chapter 18 I'm Not Alone
Sophia's POV"The funeral will now begin," I announced, looking over the somber faces gathered before me.My head was spinning, but I knew I couldn't collapse. Molly had only me now.This feeling was awful. It was so ironic. I was conducting Molly's funeral alone while Jared was still comforting Charlotte."This is all your fault! You killed Molly!" Jared's mother rushed up, and before I knew it, her hands were clenched around my collar. She shook me as if she wanted to wring the life out of me. "Why don't you die?""Take it easy!" Some people stepped forward to help, trying to pull her away, but she was like a beast out of control.I tried to push her away, but I was too weak."Go to hell!" She raised her hand high.I squeezed my eyes shut, bracing for the sting of her slap. The seconds stretched, but nothing happened. When I opened my eyes, Alexander was there, gripping her wrist firmly."Who are you? Let go of me!" she screamed. "I'll call the police!""It doesn't matter w
Last Updated : 2024-12-27Sorry, My Darling Chapter 19 She Doesn't Need Me
Jared's POVI followed Sophia to the children's hospital, keeping a safe distance.She looked so fragile, as if she might collapse at any moment. I should have gone to help her. Besides, I wanted to know how badly Molly was injured.But before I could reach her, Charlotte approached. From where I stood, I could only see them arguing heatedly. I was too far away to hear what they were arguing about. All I knew was that both women were upset. They should be resting, not fighting like this.Just as I started forward, Alexander appeared, slipping his arm around Sophia as if he had every right. Anger flared inside me. She didn't need me anymore. She had Alexander now.I walked away without a second thought, not caring what happened next.An hour later, Charlotte sent me a message asking me to accompany her to the police station as her family member. I didn't hesitate and rushed over. When I got there, I saw Alexander standing in front of Sophia, shielding her.Sophia was my wife, and

Jared's POV"It was Sophia, right?" Charlotte murmured, leaning against me.I gently moved her off and sat down on the couch, putting a bit of distance between us.She leaned in close again and stared at me, a small smile playing on her lips.I didn't know what was up with her that night. She'd been acting so strangely ever since I got there."Charlotte?" I asked, puzzled by her behavior."Jared, there's something I need to ask you," she sighed, her gaze shifting from her hands back to my face. "Do you still have feelings for me? I mean, you've been so attentive lately, and it's making me wonder..."Her words freaked me out. It was unthinkable for me, a married man.It was true that I hadn't been thrilled with the way things were going with Sophia, but Charlotte's thought was absurd."Don't get it wrong, Charlotte. I don't love you anymore," I said, shaking my head. "I just felt bad seeing you struggle with Mia."I stood up, heading for the door. "I only see you as family. I
Last Updated : 2024-12-27Sorry, My Darling Chapter 21 Molly's Dead
Sophia's POV Jared stumbled forward toward the casket.The moment his eyes landed on Molly's face, he froze."No!" he screamed, staggering backward, his legs giving out beneath him.I walked over and looked down at him with a calm detachment."This can't be true!" he shouted, clutching his head. "How? Molly was fine."He crawled forward, reaching out to grab Molly's arm. "Sweetheart, get up and tell me this is all just a prank."I watched without saying anything.Molly lay in the coffin, her eyes closed. Her expression was peaceful, as though she were merely asleep.But the truth was far harsher. Her body bore numerous injuries, meticulously hidden by the mortician's careful work."Calm down, Jared. Your daughter is gone." Alexander and my brother flanked him, holding him back as he struggled to get closer to her.Jared's body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground. His hands covered his face as tears streamed down. "What happened? Molly, open your eyes, please!""You'
Last Updated : 2024-12-27Sorry, My Darling Chapter 22 Help Me
Sophia's POV "Molly was such a sweet little girl. I remember her saying she wanted to grow up to be a hero, just like her father.""Molly adored animals. I still remember when she helped me rescue a little bird that had fallen into a stream.""And in art class, she drew a family portrait. She said, 'I have a hero for a dad!'" I stood frozen, listening to everyone at the funeral recall their cherished moments with Molly, tears glistening in their eyes.Molly truly was a kind and wonderful child. I couldn't have been prouder to have her as my daughter.But I failed to protect her.Jared was on his knees, sobbing uncontrollably. Eventually, his cries dwindled into silence.There was too much to handle during the funeral for me to focus on him. It wasn't until Molly's casket was carried away that I approached him again.He was still kneeling there. If not for the faint rise and fall of his chest, I might've thought he'd turned to stone."The funeral's over," I said flatly, lo
Last Updated : 2024-12-27Sorry, My Darling Chapter 23 Fate
Sophia's POVI couldn't die there like this.I struggled to move toward my phone. If I could just dial 911, maybe I could survive this.But just as I was ready to press the buttons, Jared's name lit up my screen.My fingers were numb, barely responsive, but I managed to jab the Answer button with what little strength I had left."Jared?" My voice quivered, weak and broken."Sophia! Was this your plan all along?" His voice thundered on the other end. "Why didn't you tell me? Do you even consider me Molly's father anymore? Or is this your way of getting back at me? Embarrassing me in front of everyone? You know how they're looking at me now, don't you?"My ears were buzzing, and I couldn't hear him.I only knew I was vomiting blood, and my chest was searing."Help me, Jared. Please," I whispered, wiping the blood dripping from my lips. "I'm coughing up blood. So much blood..." "Blood?" he scoffed. "Why don't you just die already? You can go join Molly for all I care!"The li
Last Updated : 2024-12-27Sorry, My Darling Chapter 24 Live On
Sophia's POV "What are you planning to do next? I mean, for treatment." Alexander's concerned gaze locked onto mine."I don't have a plan," I muttered, wiping tears from my face. "I don't want to go through treatment. There's nothing in this world worth staying for."For a fleeting moment, I felt a strange sense of relief as it meant I could see Molly again."Don't talk like that, Sophia. Pull yourself together," Alexander sighed heavily and sat down beside me. "Think about Molly. She was such a bright, cheerful girl. She wouldn't want to see you like this. She'd be heartbroken."He was right.If Molly were here now, she'd look at me with those big, worried eyes and say, "Mom, why are you letting yourself fall apart like this?"I shouldn't make her worry. She didn't deserve another disappointing parent."You're right," I said, taking a deep breath to steady myself."Good." He nodded, relief softening his expression. "Then it's settled. Tomorrow, we'll go back to the hospital
Last Updated : 2024-12-27Sorry, My Darling Chapter 25 We're Home
Sophia's POVI coughed up a mouthful of blood. Wiping it away, I stared at my phone screen.Charlotte's message made me furious.She knew Molly died because of her and Mia. And yet she had the audacity to provoke me.I hammered out a message on my phone. But the second I finished, I erased every word.It was pointless. Winning an argument with her wouldn't change anything."This is meaningless," I whispered to myself, closing my eyes and sinking back onto the bed.I needed to survive. I had more important things to do.An hour later, a knock at the door jolted me awake. I opened the door to find Alexander standing there, smiling gently."Don't forget, you've got your hospital check-up today," he reminded me."Of course," I replied quickly.I hoped that I could hold on a little longer.By the time we left the hospital, the taste of blood still lingered in my throat.The doctor had given me a new treatment plan. With surgery, I could live a few more years. But... Lost in t

Sorry, My Darling Chapter 36 I'm Dying, Jared
Sophia's POVJared's grip on my arm was like a vice, his face stormy with fury."Jared, don't be mad, please. It's all my fault." Charlotte clung to his arm, simultaneously grinding her heel into my foot.The sharp sting made me cry out, and I shoved her away."How dare you hit Charlotte right in front of me?" Jared roared. "She is still recovering from her injuries. Fine, you will explain yourself to the police."It was absurd. I'd ended up at the police station both times because of him.There was nothing left in this sham of our marriage.As I sat in the back of the police car, a decision crystallized in my mind. I could die, but not as Jared's wife.I had to divorce him as soon as possible.I sat in a chair in the interrogation room and stared blankly at the ceiling.Not long after, a female officer entered, her expression tinged with sympathy."I'm sorry, ma'am. They're refusing to settle," she said. "The prosecutor wants you to pay for what you've done.""I figured as
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 35 I Hate You
Sophia's POV"What?" My eyes widened in disbelief.Jared must be out of his mind. He had an affair, and now he wanted me to serve him. The audacity was staggering."I can pay you right now," he said, tapping his fingers on the wall. "Do me this favor. You know this place better than anyone.""Alright," I sighed.I was low on cash, and I couldn't turn down an offer like that, no matter how much it grated on me."If I pay you a little more..." he continued."Don't even think about asking me to babysit her," I quickly interrupted him. "I've got a lot on my plate. I don't have time to take care of your mistress.""We're not in that kind of relationship." Jared frowned, his voice laced with irritation. "Why are you so stubborn? It's annoying.""Funny, I find you annoying too," I shot back.My phone suddenly rang, cutting through the tension. I walked to the door and opened it.A middle-aged man in a moving company uniform smiled politely at me. "Hello, are you the lady of the hou
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 34 Murderers
Sophia's POV"You're selling the house? Then you might as well sell it to me," Jared said through gritted teeth. "I'll pay you market value, and you can save the strength of cleaning up."His anger was plain to see. In the past, I would've considered his feelings.Now I didn't care."Fine, of course," I replied. "I'll send you the contract. Hope you keep your word."Even though I hated him, I knew he wouldn't lie about something like this.That was sort of a relief. It was better than trying to find a buyer on my own.As long as Alexander handled the contract, I wouldn't have to worry about a thing.But Jared wasn't pacified. On the contrary, he looked angrier."What did you throw away?" he asked.I guessed he was worried about his things. How he thought of me was funny."Don't worry. I'll keep your things," I said, folding my clothes.I had planned to pack up his luggage and send it to Charlotte's place. That trouble was saved."I'm only taking what belongs to me and Moll
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 33 Useless Things
Sophia's POVThe apartment I rented was tiny. Even so, I couldn't bring myself to throw away any of Molly's things.I would never abandon her. I thought for a moment before packing some of her photos and toys into a box."Don't worry, baby. No matter where I go, I'll never forget you," I whispered, clutching her teddy bear and wiping away my tears.I didn't understand why it had to be this way. Molly and I had done nothing wrong. Yet we ended up suffering the most.With a sigh, I finished packing the toys and moved on to the bedroom Jared and I had shared.On the wall hung a large wedding photo. I could still remember how happy Jared looked when that photo was taken."I'll take care of you for the rest of our lives. With me, you won't have to worry about anything," he'd promised me that day."How did I ever believe you?" I muttered bitterly, tossing the photo into a garbage bag.He had changed so much, or he hadn't gotten over Charlotte at all."It must've been so hard for yo
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 32 Carry On
Sophia's POV"Yeah, the divorce papers," Jared said impatiently. "I've seen them. But you haven't even given me a chance to explain. Why do you want to divorce me? Have I been that terrible to you?""Haven't you? Think about what you've done these past few days. Look at me and tell me you believe your own words," I challenged.He had been ignoring me. Our love had died long ago. I didn't understand why he was still holding on.He stared at me for a moment and sighed. "I know you're unhappy. That's why I want to talk.""You pursued me," he reminded me. "You were the one who begged to marry me. And now you just want to walk away without an explanation?"He sounded like I had failed him, but he was the one cheating on me. The irony was suffocating.I sneered, "An explanation? I liked you, but not anymore."If he hadn't turned his back on Molly and me, things wouldn't have come to this.There was one thing I couldn't deny, though. Back then, I had indeed pursued him.He'd been my
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 31 What Are You Doing Here
Sophia's POV"I've sent the email to Jared," Alexander said, looking up at me with a pained expression. "I'll let you know when he replies.""Thank you, Alexander." I closed my eyes and heaved a deep sigh.Finally, I was going to be free from him.For the first time in weeks, the pain in my stomach didn't feel as unbearable."At first, I thought you were wrong to hide your illness from Jared," Alexander said, his brows furrowed as if still weighing the morality of it all. "But the more I think about it, the more I understand your perspective. If he cared about you, he'd move heaven and earth to figure out what is wrong.""Exactly," I muttered, lowering my gaze to the IV drip hooked into my arm. "He doesn't know because he is all over Charlotte.""Take care of yourself," Alexander said softly, reaching out to touch my hand. "I've got work to do and will see you around.""I will." I forced a smile. "I'm not going to die so easily."Three days later, my condition finally stabiliz
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 30 Nothing to Do with Him
Sophia's POVBlood kept pouring from my throat.I wiped my mouth again and again, but it was useless.I should've called an ambulance, but the thought of it made me laugh bitterly.I had no money left, not after pouring every cent I had into Molly's treatment.Jared hadn't sent a cent since the day she was admitted to the hospital.Through the haze of pain and nausea, I couldn't help but wonder how my marriage had reached this point.Once, our story had felt like something out of a romance drama.I was trapped in a burning building, and he saved me like a hero."It's okay, Miss. You're safe now," he said, his voice hoarse yet soothing.He carried me out of the flames and set me in a safe spot.From that moment, I knew that if I were ever to marry, it would be to a man like him.And I did marry him.Back then, everyone told me how lucky I was. I thought so too.But now? Our marriage was coming to an end.There was no point in clinging to it anymore.I clenched my fists,
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 29 Never
Sophia's POVI didn't know what brought Charlotte there.Jared and I looked over at the same time.She seemed oblivious to the tension in the air.She was even smiling at us."Why are you here?" Jared asked, his tone softening."Jared," Charlotte replied gently, "I thought about it, and I realized I needed to come see Sophia. I have to explain myself."The sight of her face made my stomach churn. I knew exactly who she was and what she'd done."Were you two arguing?" Charlotte asked, blinking innocently. "What's going on here?""Just stay out of it," Jared said. "Go home. Mia needs you.""No," she insisted, her tone earnest. "I can't avoid this anymore. I came here today to make things right with Sophia. I don't want to see you two fighting because of me. I know I've caused so much trouble for your family. I hope you can fix your relationship. Once Mia gets better, we'll leave this city."She stepped closer, her every move deliberate."Look how considerate she is," Jared mu
Sorry, My Darling Chapter 28 Lies
Sophia's POV"What did you just say? I am blaming you?" I screamed at him.I had been by Molly's side every single day.Jared sneered, pulled out a thick stack of photos, and flung them into my face.They scattered everywhere, and I had to bend down to pick them up.But when I saw the picture on top, I was struck dumb."Go ahead. How are you going to explain these?" Jared leaned over and snatched pictures from my hands. "Gonna spin another story now?"Every angle in the photos was calculated, making it look like Alexander and I were closer than we actually were.They were real, but they didn't tell the full story.I lifted my head and looked at him, trying to explain. But the moment our eyes met, I knew there was no point.He didn't believe me, so no amount of explanation would change his mind."If I hadn't seen these with my own eyes, I might've kept thinking you were a good mother." Jared's voice boomed through the room. "But you've let me down. If you want to divorce me
