“Charles, I didn’t hurt Leah on purpose. Why don’t you believe me? I’ve been in a living h*ll for the past two years. Two years later, you destroyed my hope once again. Leah Jone’s life is valuable and Sophia White’s life is not?”
This was the first time she cried since she got out of prison. She did not bawl. Tears only rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably. Charles looked at her with his brows furrowed. Two years ago, Sophia explained everything to him while crying and he was indifferent. However, he was extremely frustrated when he’s watching her cry two years later.
He pressed his lips together as he watched her breakdown. He looked at her eyes that were red from crying and asked with a frown, “Sophia, don’t just think about killing yourself. Even if you die, you’ll go to h*ll. You’ll never go to heaven.”
“If h*ll doesn’t have you and Leah, it would be heaven to me. The human world is only h*ll because you’re in it!”
At this moment, the door of the lift opened with a ‘ding’.
“Good. Very good.” Charles started to laugh with anger. He grabbed her arm and dragged her out of the lift. When the person in charge of the cleaning department saw Charles, he smiled immediately. However, when he saw who he was dragging, his face turned white instantly. He went over immediately. “Mr. Harris, what happened? Did she offend you somehow?”
“F*ck off!”
The person in charge of the cleaning department flinched from his eyes. He did not dare to approach them.
Sophia’s leg was in excruciating pain. Her stomach was hurting as well. He was walking very fast to the point she was almost being dragged by him. Then, she was dragged into a room.
After that, she was thrown to the floor.
In the next second, he was choking her just like two years ago. Charles’ beautiful face was merely an inch away from hers. Their breaths were intertwined.
“Sophia.” His icy voice sounded. Sophia could not help but shiver. “I’m your h*ll? Hm?”
Sophia’s face grew red because she could not breathe properly. There were still tears on her face. She looked extremely pitiful. She did not struggle. She even hoped that Charles would choke her to death.
He sobered up immediately and let her go. His eyes were on her naked shoulder. There were two disturbing old scars on her porcelain skin. His eyes went cold and he threw a jacket on her. He said coldly, “Get out.”
Sophia took the jacket and bit her lip. She sat up slowly.
At the same time…
Someone was knocking at the door. Then, a familiar yet foreign voice said outside. “Charles? Are you in your room?”
Sophia was able to recognize this voice even if the person had turned into ashes. She lifted her head to look at Charles. His expression was cool as usual. He was about to open the door. She started and tugged him by his pants. “I don’t want to see her…”
Charles frowned. When he saw that her face was pale, he thought she was just being timid. When he was about to say something though, the door opened.
