Chapter 347
That would only happen if Sophia chose the light over the darkness.But doubt haunted Sophia's every thought whenever she watched Alex.No matter how desperately she wanted to run into his arms, to escape into the promise of a new life—fear held her.What if Gilbert killed her brother?What if her mother died by Gilbert’s ruthless hand?What if Gilbert sent his men to hunt Alex down?Every nightmare clawed at her mind, keeping her chained in place.Sophia's feet felt glued to the floor as Alex turned toward the door.Her heart screamed for her to move, to shout, to do something. She was going to lose Alex forever—but fear gripped her harder, dragging her down like an anchor.Sophia raised a trembling hand, desperate to reach out, but her fear tightened its grip, heavier and more suffocating than ever.All she could do was stand frozen, watching helplessly as Alex walked away.She knew this was the end, but it felt like a painful mercy.Her brother would be safe, her mother would survi

“You lying bitch!” Gilbert roared, his face twisted with rage as his hand lashed out, striking Sophia so hard that she crashed onto the floor, her body crumpling painfully.“How dare you stand here and talk about loving another man! Are you trying to die?” he spat viciously, his eyes blazing with fury.Alex couldn't hold himself back any longer.Anger surged through his veins, propelling him forward until he stood inches from Gilbert's smug, sneering face.“What?” Gilbert taunted, his lips curling arrogantly. “I slapped my fiancée. What the hell can an outsider like you do about it?”“Plenty,” Alex snarled, delivering a brutal slap across Gilbert’s jaw.The crack echoed sharply in the room, and Gilbert tumbled onto the floor, spitting out three bloodied teeth.Sophia watched, horror flooding her heart. Gilbert would never forgive this.He’d kill Alex without hesitation.“Alex, stop it!” she screamed desperately, her voice trembling with fear.Alex shot her a fierce glare. “Stop? After
Chapter 345
Alex raced to the penthouse, his heart hammering wildly in his chest after tracking Sophia's phone.The fear that she might be in danger fueled his desperation.Without a second thought, he slammed his foot against the door, splintering it open with a thunderous crash.But what he saw inside nearly shattered him.Sophia was on her knees, kneeling before a smug, naked Gilbert, her face facing Gilbert’s manhood.“What the hell is going on here?” Alex’s eyes were filled with confusion, the sight shaking him to his core.Gilbert casually pulled up his underwear, wearing a twisted, arrogant smile. "Ah, it’s you again. Did you come to enjoy the view of me and my fiancée?""Fiancée?" Alex's voice trembled with disbelief. He turned his gaze toward Sophia, eyes begging for an explanation."Sophia, what the hell is this?"Sophia’s head jerked up, panic flooding her eyes. She shook her head frantically, her voice barely above a whisper.“Alex, please, it’s not what it looks like—”Gilbert chuckl
Chapter 343
Gilbert laughed cruelly, his eyes flashing dangerously, and without hesitation, he slapped Sophia across the face."You filthy little bitch, don't ever look at me like that again!"Unsatisfied with just a slap, Gilbert swiftly kicked Sophia in the stomach, driving the air from her lungs.Sophia doubled over, choking, nausea overwhelming her.But Gilbert wasn't done; he yanked her by her long, beautiful hair, forcing her to face him."Listen carefully," Gilbert hissed through clenched teeth, his face inches from hers."I enjoy a woman playing hard to get, but there’s a limit. Push me too far, and I'll destroy everyone you love."A twisted smile crossed his lips."Refuse me again, and your entire family will rot in jail, one by one. I'll start with your brother and won't stop until I've ruined anyone who's ever known you."Sophia stared back at him, eyes wide in horror, her head throbbing with pain and tears streaming down her face.The shocking truth of Gilbert's monstrous nature was l

Gilbert coughed, clearing his throat, his voice firm and dignified.“Mrs. Florence, I don’t want people spreading nasty rumors about me. You know I'm a gentleman—I’ve got a reputation and dignity to uphold.”“Taking advantage of situations like this just isn't my style.”Florence gave a slow, reassuring nod. “You’re right, of course. I trust you completely—that’s why I know you'll take good care of her.”Gilbert shifted slightly, his eyes darting to Sophia.“Then perhaps you could take Sophia to the penthouse first? I'll stop by later to check on her—if you think that’s appropriate.”“Of course, Mr. Guise,” Florence replied warmly.“You truly are a man of honor.” She gently helped Sophia to her feet, and together with the waitress, guided her toward the door.As they assisted Sophia out, Gilbert's eyes followed every graceful movement of her figure, desire burning like wildfire within him.A smirk played across his lips, dark anticipation stirring inside him as his arousal grew.“Let’

“Mother,” Sophia pleaded desperately. “Please don’t make me do this.”But Florence stayed on her knees, gripping Sophia’s hands tightly.“Sophia, for God’s sake, I’m your mother! I know what’s best for you, whether you see it now or not. One day, you’ll thank me for this.”Sophia's eyes filled with tears, blurring the world around her.The happiness she’d longed for was finally within reach—so close she could almost touch it—yet fate snatched it away like a cruel joke.Why did it have to be this hard? Why did love with Alex feel like a battle she was always destined to lose?Hadn’t she already paid the price in tears and silence? How much more did she have to bleed just to be happy?“Sophia, I will stay here on my knees until you agree,” Florence declared stubbornly.Jack also followed his mother and start kneeling.“Sister, are you really going to abandon your own family? Do you have no heart left to save us?”“We’re not asking you to die—we’re asking you to marry Gilbert Guise. He’s
