They remained in that position for a while before John slowly let go of Sophia. He then turned to sit at the side and bowed his head. “Get out.”

Sophia didn’t even bother to wear her clothes. After getting up and grabbing her skirt from the side, she fled from the room, leaving John sitting on the bed. It was then he recalled the scene of their marriage. It was the conventional kind, where the chief witness recited the wedding vows and at last asked if Sophia was willing to make the pledge. In her clear mesmerizing voice, she said, “I do.”

However, the very same woman told him in tears just now, “I don’t.” She wasn’t willing to and it was actually reasonable. After all, he wasn’t kind to her and she saw him as inferior to Ian. Indeed, Ian had outshined him in every way.

After sitting there for quite some time, a call came from Logan. Naturally, Logan had no idea what had happened so he asked John if he had settled his issues at home and if he would like to go out for a drink. Only then did John recall what he said to Logan.

Logan even asked if Sophia was next to him because he couldn’t get to her. John thought about it and replied, “She’s not feeling well so she won’t be going out tonight. Let’s go out and have a drink.”


Slightly disappointed, Logan said, “Since Ian and Sophia aren’t coming along, it’s just both of us.”

John closed his eyes. “Right then.”

Logan sighed. “Alright; let’s go. But is it okay to leave Sophia alone at home? ”

Standing up, John replied, “It’s okay. She’s asleep. It’ll be fine as long as I come home earlier.” With that, he got dressed and went out.

Meanwhile, Sophia sat on the bed in her room and stared blankly at the wall. She was truly terrified by John just now. Although the man wasn’t usually mild-tempered, neither would he lose control that way. Even now, her chin still hurt. Only when Sophia heard John’s car driving off did she slowly bury her face into her palm.

The moment John drove away, Sophia’s phone rang. She looked at her phone and saw that it was Ian. He had sent a message. ‘Sophia, I’m at your door.’

Staring at the message for quite some time, Sophia finally recalled something. Did these two bump into each other when John left? During her earlier quarrel with John, although she initially meant to urge him to announce their divorce, she more or less involved Ian in it toward the end.
