Second Chance At Love

Chapter 117

Chapter 117

Sophia had been so engrossed just now, so much so that she did not even notice Jason pushing the door open.

After closing the notebook subtly, she leaned forward slightly, preparing to put it in her suitcase

Jason saw this and strode over. As he walked, he asked, “What are you writing? You seem to be hiding something

Sophia’s heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively tightened her grip on the notebook in her hand.

She thought, ‘I can’t let him know the contents yet. Before he’s completely fallen, even if he knows everything, at most it’ll just be regret and pity, unable to deal him a fatal blow. The dagger must be plunged into the heart at the most opportune moment for the best effect.”

“I’ve recorded everything I bought for our daughter,” she said. “Why? Do you want to see it?”

Jason’s outstretched arm froze in midair, Pain flashed across his deep eyes, and his tall body trembled faintly.

The child who died on the operating table two years ago had always been a wound in his heart that could not be healed.

When he did not care about Sophia in the past, he could still suppress the pain of losing his daughter.

Now that he cared about her, this pain erupted a hundredfold and a thousandfold.

“Why are you torturing yourself like this?” he said. “The child is already gone. Can you stop looking at things related to her and missing her?”

Seeing the pain on his face and noticing he didn’t even have the courage to reach for the notebook, Sophia felt extremely pleased.

She thought, This is exactly what I want. Every word and every action slowly seep into his being, completely crushing his will.”

“Our daughter didn’t cout of your body,” Sophia said. “You haven’t experienced that kind of heart–wrenching pain, so naturally, you won’t miss her

With that said, she suddenly reached out and handed the notebook to him, coldly asking. “Do you want to see it or not? If you don’t, I’ll put it

away.”

Jason did not want to torment himself. He instinctively moved two steps backward and hoarsely said, “Lock it up. Don’t look at it anymore. I’m worried that you’ll suffer from depression.”

Sophia laughed mockingly, but inwardly, she breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought, “This man isn’t easily fooled. Fortunately, he cares about that poor child and doesn’t dare to think about that painful incident from the past. Otherwise, this diary would have been exposed today.”

After retracting her arm, she squatted down, opened the suitcase, and pressed the diary to the bottom.

She thought, “When Treturn to Lust, I’ll make tto record all the pain I have endured during this period in the diary. One day, when he flips through the notebook, he’ll know what I’ve been through,

and what he’s done to me!

“My luggage is all packed,” she said. fill make a move first. From today onward, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. If you want to keepas a mistress, let’s talk money.”

With that said, she dragged her luggage and walked out.

Jason instinctively reached out and grabbed her wrist. His stiff brows were filled with conflict and reluctance

“Don’t you have anything to say to me?” he asked.

He thought, ‘She was clearly once madly in love with me. Why did she fall out of love in just over half a month? I can’t figure it out!”

Sophia slowly cto a stop, turned around, stared into his eyes, and enunciated each word as she said, “I only have one question. When will you givethe divorce certificate?”

Right after she said that, she successfully caught the look of pain in his eyes.

She thought, ‘Looks like I’ve guessed correctly. This man has no intention to handle the rest of the procedures. He’s scared! Once the divorce certificate is issued, there will be no ties between us.”

Jason suddenly tightened his grip on her wrist. He gritted his teeth and asked, “Other than the divorce certificate, do you have anything else to say to me?”

His stubbornness was simply an attempt to find a trace of her love for him in her words.

Sophia smiled faintly. The words that cout of her mouth completely shattered his hopes. “I left everything that is related to you,” she said. “Jason, let’s part on good terms.”

He suppressed the sense of madness in his eyes. Suddenly, he pulled her into his arms forcefully.

“Sophia, we can only be together, and we can’t part,”

“he said. “Even if our marital ties are dissolved, you still won’t be able to escape from

1. me.

Sophia thought, is his possessiveness overthis strong now?”

Sophia lifted her head to look at him and slowly reached out to stroke his tightly furrowed brows, her movements somewhat gentle.

“Jason, you have fallen in love with me, right?” she asked.

Jason pursed his lips. He was not used to her blunt and direct questioning. He turned his head slightly and said hoarsely, “My things can only belong toforever. This has nothing to do with love.”

As soon as he said this, he felt a trace of regret. He instinctively opened his mouth, wanting to remedy the situation, but Sophia did not give him a chance. She suddenly broke free from his embrace.

“Since you don’t love me, let’s only talk about money in the future, not feelings,” Sophia said.

Jason’s heart suddenly ached. Looking at her cold eyes, he had the illusion that he had lost everything.

He desperately wanted to grab her, because he vaguely felt that once he let go this time, there would be no possibility of being together in

the future.

“Stay in this villa,” he said. “I’ll send Ada

Before he finished talking, Eve reported anxiously from the doorway all of a sudden, saying, “Mr. Jason, Miss Ada coughed up blood.”
