Chapter 8 - Love Or Lust?
Chapter 8 – Love Or Lust?
"You two are very compatible, then I'll say goodbye". Sophia said while giving the two of them a mocking smile. After that, Sophia turned towards the exit.
"Shopia, wait!". George tried to stop Sophia who had arrived at the door. "You misunderstood! It's not what you see". George said while holding Sophia's right hand.
Sophia turned to George with a wry smile and then said. "I really misunderstood and didn't believe your conversation, but seeing what you did made me believe it."
"It's all your fault!" shouted George, who was starting to lose his temper.
"My fault?". Sophia was surprised by George's baseless accusation.
"Yeah, it's all your fault. Because you never want to be touched, I waited patiently until today but you're still selfish, I'm also a normal man, Sophia". George replied as if he was the victim.
"So which one is right? You want to marry me out of lust or love?". asked Sophia while squinting her eyes.
"Of course because I love you that's why I want to have you completely". George answered firmly.
"Love you say? Even waiting a little longer you can't afford it? Even though we will immediately say the promise of allegiance yesterday, after that you can have me. But, you can't wait for that day until you scapegoat love for your lust and take it out on other women . And that girl is my best friend? Is it appropriate for both of you?". Sophia's voice started to rise as she emphasized the word good friend, she was disappointed and devastated by that fact.
Feeling disapproving of Sophia's words, Vio interrupted their conversation by saying. "Shopia, you Don't feel holy! We've been doing it for a year, but alas you are too stupid to realize it".
George immediately glanced at Vio with annoyance because her words could not be filtered.
"Shut up Vio…!". George snapped.
Sophia's expression remained calm even though her heart felt furious and wanted to scream hearing how happy Vio was with her affair.
"I'm really stupid because all this time I can't tell the difference between snakes and not". Sophia said while smiling bitterly at Vio.
Hearing Sophia's words, Vio became even more angry.
"You widow! Do you think you are better than me? I will tell you that the widow must be naughty and likes to seduce men. You can reject George in front of him but who knows which man behind you will play?". Vio shouted.
Vio's words that emphasized the word widow made Sophia's heart torn as if opening an old wound that she had buried for a very long time.
Meanwhile, George was shocked. He walked over to Sophia with a complicated expression.
"Are you really a widow?". asked George with an intimidating look.
Sophia clenched her fists trembling, she had not heard the title of widow for a long time since she settled in city B.
"Why are you silent? Does that mean it's true? So, all this time you've been lying to me?" George said in a slightly higher voice.
Sophia turned to look at Vio with a sneer and ignored George's question.
"How did Vio know that I was married?". Inner Sophia.
After a few moments of silence, George looked impatient. He understood that Vio was not lying because Sophia was silent without giving him an explanation.
"Hahahahaha…. So, all this time my future wife was a widow? It's disgusting. Which old man did you marry? Then, how did you get divorced without giving you property? Are you a mistress? After you were caught by his first wife, you were immediately divorced, is that so? Luckily I didn't marry you". Said George, smiling both slyly and annoyed.
Sophia was still silent and stared cynically at the two shameless couples in front of her.
She couldn't believe that George would have the heart to say such hurtful words. The George she knew was a warm man and always treated her well, and never hurt her. However, what she saw now was quite different.
"She was just silent, that means what you said was true dear. It's disgusting. No wonder her stepsister and grandmother hate her so much. Unfortunately her stepfather still defends her because of her mother". Vio said while smiling mockingly at Sophia.
Sophia was still silent and didn't say anything, only a few emotionless tears that answered all the questions and baseless accusations from the two of them.
A moment later.
Without saying anything, Sophia immediately ran away from George's room after wiping her tears.
George looks frustrated, he is no longer interested in continuing his scene with Vio because he loves Sophia, but he also feels cheated so he feels disappointed.
