"Let go of me! Didn''t you see what Sophia did to Emma?" Sky struggled furiously, his eyes turning red. He badly wanted to rush to the scene.
"Do you know what Emma did to Soph in the past? Did you see those things in Shane''s room, Sky?"
Lincoln''s tone became indifferent. "You''re a disappointment. Though you''re the eldest son of our family and the CEO of Walker Group, you allowed Emma and Shane to mistreat Soph.
"Everyone else is supporting Soph, so you should calm down instead.
"Drag him into the washroom; he needs to get a grip on himself."
Snatching Sky''s phone away, Lincoln spoke to Sophia on the phone. "Please wait,
Soph. Don''t worry. All of us are on your side.
"We''re very sorry that you suffered so much in our family."
Meanwhile, Sophia looked at Lincoln and burst intoughter. However, her
"I will only seek justice on those who have wronged me, so I won''t me all of you. Instead, I''ll get my revenge on those who hurt me.
"Lincoln, though you''re older than me, you''ve respected me all these years. I know that you treat me well.
"I''ll remember everyone who treated me well."
Wiping away her tears, Sophia continued, "Once Skyes out of the washroom, let him talk to me!"
"Alright, Soph. You''re the victim, so please remember not to upset yourself again." While Lincoln looked at her, heforted her gently but firmly.
He added, "My parents don''t know what happened yet. I''ll tell them everything the next morning. Then, they''llpensate you."
"Should I ept their money?" Sophia asked.
"Why not?" Lincoln looked at her. "I know my parents well-they''ll give you marypensation not because they want you to forgive Sky, Emma, or Shane. They''ll just feel guilty and sad for you. They would hope that you''ll live a better life in the future.
"It''s important to have some money on hand since you''re a girl. With more money, you''ll have more backing."
After hearing that, Sophia cried again. Nodding, she replied, "I got it."
"My parents and I are too ashamed to ask for your forgiveness after what Sky did. So, don''t worry, Soph. Our family won''t pressure you to do anything.
"Instead, my father will beat Sky up and apologize to you with gifts."
Sophia nodded. "Alright. Thank you, Lincoln. I''m less worried after hearing your words."
"Hang in there, Soph!"
"I will."
Sophia''s face was streaked with tears. She thought, "Why was I so timid in the past? Why did I think Lincoln was a bad person and that the other people from the Walker family wouldn''t help me?"
If she had spoken up earlier, things might have been different. However, she couldn''t turn back time.
Thankfully, she met Natalie, who encouraged her to change.
At the same time, Timothy was pushing Sky''s head into the sink in the washroom.
When he opened the tap, cold water sshed onto thetter''s head.
Though Sky tried his best to break free, he wasn''t strong enough to fight Hector and Timothy.
Lincoln took the phone to the washroom and showed the scene to Sophia.
On the other hand, Sophia watched the sight in silence.
Sky''s head was dragged upward, then plunged into cold water repeatedly.
After doing that a couple of times, Lincoln asked coldly, "Have you calmed down, Sky?"
"Just you wait, Lincoln! Wait and see, Timothy and Hector!"
Sky panted heavily. "What did Sophia offer all of you? Why are you helping her?" "Soph didn''t give us anything—we couldn''t stand seeing you behave so terribly." Then, Timothy passed the phone to Sky. "It''s time to have a conversation with Soph now.
"Sky, not everyone is as shameless and disgusting as you. Besides, we aren''t despicable and filthy like you.
"It''s our loss for having a brother like you."
Lincoln''s tone was aloof. "Watch it, Sky! I''ll talk to Father and try my best to manage thepany in the future.
"You don''t have to take a long vacation now; just retire!"
After that, he looked at Timothy and Hector. The other two immediately let go of
Sky and followed the former out of the study.
Sky remained standing. His hair was dripping wet, and water rolled down his
body. A whileter, he slowly turned to look at the screen.
Sophia didn''t hang up the call because she was waiting for him.
"Let go of Emma, Sophia." Sky forced himself to remain calm.
"Do you want me to let go of Emma?" Sophiaughed. "When I begged Shane to
let me go back then, why didn''t you get him to let me go?"
Sitting on the bed, she opened a box and grabbed a stack of pictures inside it. She tossed them into the air.
"Even if we aren''t lovers, we''re still friends, right? How could you treat me like that? Do you think I didn''t know about this?"
Chuckling, Sophia showed the pictures to Sky. "Shane and Emma have a copy of these pictures.
"Oh, yes. Shane recorded a video when I was being raped by him. Emma has a copy of that too. Did you see it? I bet you didn''t see it, right?
"I almost died. Wouldn''t Emma and you be contented if that happened? But why should I have to die? I didn''t do anything wrong.
"Just because Marcus and I are
close and because he protected me, Emma wanted to ruin my life. As a brother, not only did you remain a bystander after knowing everything, but you also helped to clean the mess Emma created."
She had no tears left to cry. As Sophia continued talking, she smiled faintly.
"You have two choices, Sky. You can
either kill Shane, or watch while Emma is raped by a man with an
STDO''ll treat Emma the way she treated me."
Qu
Sky''s eyes were reddened. Gritting his teeth, he yelled at the camera, "You''ve gone mad, Sophia!"
"Yes! I have gone mad because of you and Emma!" Sophia screamed back loudly.
She added, "Both of you are disgusting creatures. Instead of being together, why did you two hurt me?
"I just did what Emma did to me in the past, but you couldn''t stand it. You should kill Shane now!"
"Alright, I''ll do as you please!" Since
Sophia seemed very agitated, Sky hurriedly gave in. "I''ll go now. Don''t hangup on me! I''ll head overo immediately!"
