    Juson pressed his thin lips together, his handsome face gradually contorting. ire had indeed


    contacted him, begging him to save Lucas. At first, be refused, but ire promised to reconcile


    him with Sophia within three days. Desperate to make amends with his wife, Jason agreed to the


    deal, promising to save Lucas if ire seeded.


    However, Jason had no idea ire would go as far as to kidnap her own daughter and send


    Sophia to his bed. If he had known ire’s n involved such a method, he would never have


    agreed in the first ce. “What a joke. If I truly want to sleep with Sophia, I don’t need that old


    hag’s help he thought


    “Sophia, let me exin… Before jason could finish, Sophia cut him off sharply. “Just give me the


    answer. Did iree to you? Did you agree to save Lucas if you got me?”


    Jason’s lips moved, wanting to argue. But faced with Sophia’s piercing gaze, he could only rasp out


    one word. “Yes.”


    A sharp p echoed through the room as Sophia struck Jason hard across the face. Jason, you


    disgust me,” she spat, wrenching her hand free from his grip and storming towards the door. Tll


    take what happened this afternoon as a dog bite.”


    Jason let out a bitterugh. He knew that the passionate  was nothing but a fleeting dream. Now


    that the dream was over, he was still stuck in his hell. He pondered, 11 doesn’t matter. I won’t give


    up on you just because of a temporary setback. I’ve already imnted aser tracker in your skin


    and I can track you every move. If one year of penance isn’t enough, I will continue for two years. If


    two years fails, I will keep going for five or even ten years, until you find a man who can truly make


    you happy


    Sophia walked out of the suite, shooting a cold nce at Aaron standing guard outside before


    heading towards the elevator. Her steps were shaky. each one amplifying the difort in her


    body. Once inside the elevator, she leaned against the wall to support her weight. Her abdomen


    throbbed with a dull ache, and she gently pressed a hand against it, rubbing softly as she thought,


    Hopefully, it will work this time so I won’t have to endure being with Jason again.


    Sophia pulled out her phone and began typing a message to Amanda. (I’ve seeded here. If the


    fertilized egg imnts sessfully within the next week, 111 prepare to leave. Please take good


    care of Sweety and do your best to extend her life.]


    A few seconds after sending the message, Amanda replied: [Don’t worry about Sweety; she’s in


    good hands with me. Sophia, it’s okay, just think of it as a dog bite. Don’t let it get to you.]


    Sophia read the message and smiled silently. The elevator dinged and the door opened. She


    walked out, head down, and ran straight into a solid


    chest.


    “Sorry, I.” Sophia stopped mid–sentence, staring dazedly at the handsome man in front of her.


    The man looked at Sophia too, his deep eyes locking onto hers, his face showing unmistakable


    excitement. “Sophia, you’re alive. With that, he grabbed her and pulled her into a tight embrace. “If


    you were alive, why didn’t you tell me? Do you know I’ve felt guilty for five years?”

    Five years ago, when he rushed to the small town in Leezeway, he found only ruins and a charred


    corpse. Im sorry I didn’t protect you better. You shouldn’t have had to suffer like that.”


    The man’s warm breath on Sophia’s cheek brought her wandering thoughts back. She slowly raised


    her hand, gently patting his back, and saidfortingly, I’m here, alive and well. Don’t me


    yourself. If it weren’t for you. I would’ve died by Jason’s hand long ago. I wouldn’t be here now,”
