Sophia stood there with an unreadable expression, her arms crossed. She then laughed lightly, “You’re saying that I slapped Xyla? How? Where’s the mark? What proof do you have?”

Still sobbing, Xyla stepped out from behind Richard. Pointing at the slap mark on her face, she cried, “Just admit that you slapped me!”

That was merely a gentle slap. Sophia could easily do the same thing on her thigh and it would also take a while for it to fade.

With her tears running down her cheeks, Xyla rushed and grabbed at Sophia. “I deserve this. I was the one who came between the both of you. There’s nothing wrong with you hating me. If hitting me makes you feel better, do it! Just please stop going after the Harpers and Richard!”

The situation seemed familiar. Sophia remembered that when their affair was exposed, Xyla was also playing the victim card. Back then, Sophia was so mad that she couldn’t help herself from slapping Xyla. However, times had changed, and she was no longer the same old Sophia. Nothing was stopping her from hitting Xyla when she had asked her to do so willingly.

Raising her palm, Sophia struck her. This time, she wasn’t using the same force she’d used to kill the mosquito. Instead, it was an extremely hard and open-palmed blow. Sophia used everything she’d learned from Gwen, making sure to smack Xyla until she bled.

Whoosh! A loud, piercing noise came along with that one slap. Everyone stood still, shocked for a whole second. In that second itself, Sophia slapped Xyla again with the other palm. Only now were the slap marks well balanced.

Xyla was feeling dizzy after the two slaps, and she tasted blood in her mouth and nose. Covering both of her cheeks, she looked at Sophia unbelievably. Bewildered, she staggered backward, falling into Richard’s arms. This time, she wasn’t pretending. She genuinely felt weak, as if the slap had given her a concussion.

After a brief silence, Richard broke into a shout, “Sophia Edwards!”
