Chapter 343
Sophia took a bite of noodles. “What is there to rify? You want me to say that I pretended to be still
married to John for the sake of helping him out with the crisis over Infinity Group, but he was then
caught red-handed with Isabelle, so we had to make our divorce public?”
Matilda was rendered speechless. “Sophia, are you feigning ignorance with me?”
Finishing the noodles in a few bites, Sophia then stood up with the bowl in her hands and looked at her.
“Yup, I’m feigning ignorance. However, it seems that you’re truly ignorant. How are you so thick-
skinned toe and seek me out? The previous time, you swore right here that you wouldn’t implore
me for help. Why, you’re going back against your word so soon?”
Sneering, she turned around and walked toward the kitchen. “Also, you should act like it if you’re here
to beg me for help. What kind of attitude is this now? I’m already showing great charity by not talking
smack about John. I’ve warned you not to provoke me. Otherwise, I won’t be able to control my
tongue.”
Matilda closed her eyes for a moment, her fists cracking by her sides. All of a sudden, she recalled the
scene back when she was forced toe and apologize to Sophia. This was the exact spot I stood in
back then. My humiliation is just greater every single time!
When Sophia came out after washing the bowl, she noticed that Matilda was still standing there. She
didn’t pay her any attention earlier, so she thought that she’d left. Going over to the coffee table, she
took a piece of tissue and wiped her hands. “If there’s nothing else, I’m going upstairs to rest.”
Matilda’s face was devoid of emotion. She merely stared at her without saying a single word nor
twitching a single muscle. Her brows creasing, Sophia looked at her for a while before she pivoted and

headed for the staircase.
However, just after she’d turned around, Matilda suddenly rushed at her and grabbed her hair hard,
yanking her backward. “Why are you being cocky with me? Who do you think you are?”
Sophia was startled. Her scalp hurting, she promptly arched her body backward. While she’dzed
around for almost a year after marrying into a wealthy family, she still used to be a farmer in the past.
Thus, she was quite strong despite her petite and slim stature. Half bending, she spun around, putting
herself face-to-face with Matilda. As her hair was being pulled, she could only keep her head lowered.
Swinging a hand out to break Matilda’s hold on her hair, Sophia pinched a nerve on her arm that would
render the entire arm numb with her other hand. She pinched hard, upon which Matilda eximed in
pain before her hold loosened.
Straightening, Sophia smoothed her hair and chuckled. “Looks like the incident back then failed to
teach you a lesson after all.” After saying that, she walked toward Matilda.
At this time, Matilda was cradling her numb arm, staring at her. Subsequently, she grabbed a
decorative item from the table beside her and threw it at Sophia while snarling, “You’re trulycking in
manners, you insolent brat!”
Sophia easily dodged. Then, she stepped forward and swung her hand at Matilda without hesitation.
“You’re the uncouth one.” After the p, she added a kick.
There was a hanging chair behind Matilda, so when she stumbled at the kick and hit the hanging chair,
she tripped and fell to the ground.
Her expression frosty, Sophia walked over. All at once, she was reminded of the scene back when she
raised her hand against Matilda. I regretted not kicking her a few times back then, but look, my
opportunity is now here!
Propping herself up, Matilda stared at her. “What? You still want to hit me? Let me tell you, I’m going to
lodge a police report and sue you when I leave. I’ll have you return everything you took from John!”
Sophia burst outughing. “Sure, I’ll give you the opportunity. You’re a coward if you don’t lodge a
police reportter!” After she’d said that, she gave Matilda a kick right away, taking her by surprise
since she’d never thought that Sophia would dare kick her.
