Chapter 335 - She Felt Betrayed
"Stay away from Sophia!!! How dare you take advantage of her? How dare you drug her?! I will make you pay for this!" The man shouted through his gritted teeth.
"Matthew…" Sophia's eyes widened in surprise and disbelief when she recognized the person who interrupted them.
She immediately covered her exposed body. She felt very embarrassed after seeing Matthew. He saw them making out inside that room.
She wished that the ground would open up right now and swallow her. She wanted to hide from too much embarrassment she was feeling right now.
'Wait, what is Matt doing here? And what is he talking about that Marcus drugged me?' Sophia asked herself in confusion.
Marcus, on the other hand, was boiling with rage because of Matthew's sudden intrusion. He ruined and interrupted his intimate moment with Sophia.
Aside from that, he received a hard punch from him. His jaw was still hurting from the impact. Marcus looked daggers at Matthew who was now removing his coat, putting it on to Sophia.
Sophia was still dazed. She had no idea what was happening here. She could see that Matthew was freaking mad right now.
"Are you okay? What do you feel?" Matthew held Sophia's shoulders and asked her softly with his worried look.
Sophia didn't know what to answer. She couldn't face Matthew. She felt really embarrassed right now. She wondered how much he saw. She started scolding herself inwardly.
Marcus clenched his fists. He wanted to get even with Matthew.
'What the hell is he doing here? Where's John and Lester? I thought they would take care of this. How come this person was able to come here?' Marcus wondered at that thought.
"Let's get out of here," Matthew said to Sophia, guiding her to stand up.
Marcus immediately grabbed Sophia's elbow, stopping her from leaving.
"Sophia, stay." He said with a pleading look then he turned to Matthew. "Dude, this is none of your business! Just leave us alone! Sophia is my date tonight. She's my girl!"
Matthew narrowed his eyes at him. "Get that fucking hand off her!"
"I'm not yet done with you, Marcus. I won't forgive you for doing this to Sophia. You take advantage of her!"
Sophia didn't know what to do. Their voices were making her head hurt more. She felt the discomfort once more.
Marcus let out a sarcastic laugh while giving Matthew a ridiculing look.
"I am not taking advantage of her. She's doing this willingly." Marcus spat back at him.
"Because you drugged her. You spiked her drinks." Matthew said firmly.
Both Sophia and Marcus were taken aback after hearing that.
"What are you talking about? Me drugging her?! Why the hell I should do that? Never. You are just making a story. Sophia, don't listen to him."
Matthew smirked at him mockingly. He pulled Sophia closer to him, not letting Marcus get near her.
"Still denying it? I heard everything your sister and her friends were talking about. That's why I am here. Do you want proof? I can bring this champagne in the laboratory right now," Matthew said, grabbing the bottle of champagne from the table.
Sophia's eyes widened in realization. She looked at Marcus with a questioning gaze.
"Is it true, Marcus?" She asked him.
"Of course, not! I won't do it, Sophia!" Marcus said with so much certainty in his voice.
"But… I felt strange… after drinking the wine. I felt some discomfort. I feel so hot and thirsty. I feel like I'm having a fever right now. And I…"
'I am craving to be touched by you.' Sophia added to her thoughts but didn't dare to voice it out.
Marcus fell silent after hearing that. Then John and Lester crossed his mind. They warned him not to drink the wine and just let Sophia drink it.
'Did they spike the champagne? Are they the ones who did this?' Marcus was suspecting John and Lester.
Thinking about that possibility, Marcus couldn't help but feel mad. They did it behind his back. He had no idea that they planned this out. They even hid this thing from him.
"Let's go, Sophie. I'll bring you to the hospital now so that you will feel better. We will get that drug out of your system." Matthew reassured her, grabbing her hand.
Sophia couldn't still believe that Marcus would do this to her. She didn't expect that he had a bad intention for inviting her here alone.
She felt hurt. She was betrayed by Marcus. He took advantage of her. She trusted him. In the end, he did something he was not supposed to do.
'What is his reason for doing this to me? I thought he was my friend.' Sophia slammed her eyes shut. Her tears just continued to flow down her cheeks.
"Yes, please Matt. Can you get me out of here?" Sophia mumbled with her trembling voice. She didn't want to cry in front of them but failed.
"Sophia, I didn't do this. Please believe me!" Marcus felt alarmed after seeing Sophia's expression.
Sophia ignored Marcus. Her heart was still being squeezed right now. She couldn't look at him. She just couldn't do it.
"Matt, please… I'm weak… I don't think I can walk… but I want to get out of here as soon as possible," Sophia begged him. There was a hint of desperation and helplessness in her voice.
Matthew nodded his head as he understood her. Without further ado, Matthew scooped her in his arms in a bridal style carry.
Marcus wanted to stop them but he couldn't bring himself to do it, not after seeing the hurt expression of Sophia.
He sat on the sofa, feeling weak. He buried his face using both hands.
"Argh?! What have I done?!" Marcus started to regret it.
Then a cold glint flashed through his eyes as John and Lester popped up in his mind. He needed to confront them.
Marcus picked up his clothes and put them on quickly. He came out of the room in a rush. He just got out of the room when he bumped into John and Lester outside.
Marcus frowned upon seeing their faces. It looked like they were beaten up badly. The corner of their mouths was bleeding.
"What happened to the two of you?"
