    Chapter 59


    A cruel smile yed on Jason’s lips. “I want to teach that woman a lesson, make her understand


    who’s boss. Thinking divorce? Thinking the can just walk away? Not on my watch.” He added aloud,


    “Break thew, face the consequences. Once we get the proof, I’m bringing thew down on Corey.


    He’ll rot in jail.”


    Corey, Sophia’s father, had taken a major hit three years back. Bankruptcy triggered a heart


    condition that meds barely kept at bay. Jail could


    be a death sentence.


    Eric pursed his lips. “Corey’s in rough shape,” he said carefully. “Jail time might not be survivable.


    If he dies, you and Sophia? Forget patching things up ever again.”


    Jason scoffed. “Patching things up? You think if I let this slide, she’lle running back? A woman


    like her needs a firm hand,”


    Eric tried to intervene, but Jason cut him off. “Enough. My decision’s made. Do as I say”


    Wilson Mansion, Guest Room


    Ada leaned against the window, phone pressed to her ear. “Julia, thanks a bunch for this, I owe you


    big time. Need


    you big time. Need anything, you call me.”


    Days ago, she learned Jason was digging into Sophia’s past with that George guy in Eindlo.


    Worried he might soften up. Ada called her old friend Julia, Julia, never one to disappoint, spun a


    web of lies. ording to the “new” story, Sophia actively pursued George then dumped him when


    he got locked up. Quite the gold–digger, huh?


    Ada wouldn’t let Jason get all mushy over Sophia. She’d done her part. Mrs. Wilson was rightfully


    hers.


    Julia chuckled, “Don’t sweat it, Ada. You hadn’t mentioned George messing around with Sophia


    before, or I’d have been clueless. Besides, friends help friends, right? Sophia’s a total piece of work.


    ying George five years ago, then stealing your man four years back? Shameless. You gotta get


    your guy back. You need anything, just say the word.”


    Ada’s smile turned malicious. “Alright, will do.”


    They chatted a bit longer, then a knock interrupted them. “Come in,” Ada called.


    The door opened, revealing Eve. “News from the medical room,” she said, lowering her voice.


    “Alison’s showing signs of waking up.”


    Ada’s head snapped up, a tremor running through her. “Waking up soon?” she asked urgently.


    “Signs of recovery, yeah. You gotta figure out this mess fast, or we’re all sunk,” Eve warned.


    Ada clenched her fists, a dark glint in her eyes. ‘That old bat,‘ she thought. ‘A problem that needs


    solving, Framing Sophia for it would be ideal.” A sinister n formed in her mind. Her smile


    softened. “Find me a reliable perfumer, would you?”


    Eve, oblivious to the brewing storm, simply nodded. “Okay”


    A few days passed, and Sophia’s wounds were mostly healed. Jason hadn’t called, hadn’t


    mentioned divorce either. She nned a quiet trip to the courthouse to file herself. Her


    lawyer/confirmed her strong case Jason’s infidelity and the bastard child vited marriagew.

    Ten in the morning, she was heading out when her phone rang. It was ire. Dread washed over


    her. Calls from Mom were usually pressure tactics to “work things out” with Jason. Sensing a trap,


    Sophia gritted her teeth and ignored the call. Bending to Jason’s will wasn’t an option anymore.


    Given that man’s pent–up anger over the past few days, she was in for a world of pain


    When she was on the porch, her phone buzzed again. This time, it was a text: [You ungrateful bitch,


    your father has been taken to jail, and you’re still indiferent. How did I raise such an ingrate like


    you?]


    “Dad’s in jail?” Sophia stumbled, her phone almost slipping from her grasp.
