"I''ll tell you when I get back," Luna said. “I''m heading over now. This is going to be good."
"Alright, go on then," Natalie chuckled. "Enjoy the show, but your safety is more important. Be careful and drive slowly."
"Okay, I''ll be safe,” Luna promised, focusing on the road.
"Mm. Bye."
Luna hung up and drove carefully. Snow, fog, and traffic jams weremon in this weather.
But today, the roads were surprisingly clear, and she reached Sophia''s vi in forty minutes.
Once the car was inside the gates, Nathan mmed them shut and dragged Sophia out.
They didn''t even make it to the front door before the argument exploded in the yard. Sophia cringed at Nathan''s dark expression, shrinking back as he yelled, “Nathan, what are you doing? You''re hurting me! Let go!"
Smack! Nathan''s hand cracked across her face. He looked at Sophia''s full figure and found himself disgusted,paring it unfavorably to Wendy''s slender elegance.
His eyes were bloodshot as he red at her, a hint of revulsion in his gaze.
Sophia was stunned. Tears welled in her eyes as she stared at him in disbelief. "Nathan, you hit me? You hit me because of Wendy''s fake videos?"
Her voice trembled, and her cheek stung with a fiery pain.
Nathan''s eyes were ice-cold as he sneered, "Sophia, I''ve spoiled you for a lifetime. I know exactly what kind of person you are. Don''t y dumb with me."
"I gave up everything for you, just so I wouldn''t fail you after all your waiting. And this is how you repay me?"
Heughed bitterly. "Sophia, oh, Sophia. Do you really think I don''t know you? Just tell me, how far have you two gone? How many years has it been? Ten? Twenty?"
"When did you meet?"
Sophia looked at him, her expression wounded, but she remained silent.
Outside the gate, Wendy sent Nathan a text.
[Nathan, Sophia and Mr. Wilson
were high school ssmates.
They''ve
been in touch this whole
time Congrattions, you wear the
horns well
Nathan''s face contorted with rage as he read the message. They knew each other
in high school?
How could he not have known they were ssmates?
Sophia watched him staring at his phone growing more and more anxious as his expression darkened What had he seen now?
>
Nathan strode over to her and, raising his hand, pped her again, hard.
"Ah!"
Before Sophia could even react, Nathan grabbed a handful of her hair and began to beat her mercilessly.
He was absolutely livid.
He had given up his five children and Wendy, and for what? For this woman to cheat on him.
"I''ll teach you to cheat on me!
Sophia, how dare you? All the money
to you
you
I earned these past years, I gave it all son! Over twenty years! Do the math Everything nned, everything I schemed, it was all for you and our children!"
“I became a pariah for you, and I was still ready to marry you. So why would you cheat on me?"
"How much did he give you? Huh?"
Nathan yelled as he hit her, consumed by fury. For years, he had been secretly plotting against Wendy.
And every penny he got, he gave to her and her son.
He provided for her, and she repaid him with betrayal.
All the money he had earned over the years went to them. How could she cheat on
him?
