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

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

Inside the locked room, Florence paced anxiously, her mind racing faster in these past thirty minutes than it had in the last three years.Panic gnawed at her chest as she frantically searched for a way out—for herself and her precious son.Suddenly, the lock clicked, and the door swung open.Florence turned sharply as Ricardo, their family lawyer, stepped inside.“Ricardo! Thank God!” Florence rushed toward him. “You have to understand—I didn’t plan any of this. James didn’t kill anyone! You must help us!”Ricardo set his briefcase down on the table and sat across from them, his expression grim.“I’m doing everything I can.”Florence grabbed the table, her knuckles white.“Ricardo, this is a huge mistake! We shouldn’t even be here!”“Listen carefully, Mrs. Lancaster,” Ricardo said calmly.“This isn’t about guilt or innocence anymore. If the authorities say James killed that girl, then in their eyes, he’s guilty.”Florence stared at him in disbelief. “What are you saying? Where is the

Sophia stared across the road at Alex and Lyra, her heart sinking.One was her closest friend, and the other was the man who once gave her everything.But back then, none of that mattered.Now, when she was finally ready to give him her heart, all that awaited her was pain.“Well,” Gilbert whispered suddenly from behind her, his voice dripping with mockery, “don’t you think they make a lovely couple, Sophia?”She sighed, exhaustion filling her voice. “Gilbert, do you really think we’d make a good couple?”“What?” Gilbert sneered. “Are you having second thoughts after everything Laura did for you?”Sophia bit her lip, anger and regret twisting inside her. “Maybe Alex was right. Maybe neither you nor Laura ever truly helped him. Which means I don’t owe either of you anything.”“You owe me, Sophia,” Gilbert growled, his voice dropping dangerously low “Laura helped free him. Now it’s your turn to repay me—or trust me, you’ll regret crossing me!”Sophia steadied her breath, meeting his co
