    Chapter 1653


    Sophia gritted her teeth as Bertha led Lea away without looking back.


    Thaddeus jumped up from his chair as soon as he realized that Bertha had genuinely left, not just


    trying to scare him. He was about to chase after her!


    Sophia rose and blocked Thaddeus’s path. “Dad, why are you chasing her? Can’t you see through her


    yet? She was always saying she loves you and that nothing else matters! But now that you’re giving


    me all your property, and she’s showing her true self! She ims it’s not about the money! Dad, don’t


    go after her! I bet she won’t win in the divorce court. She’s never contributed to your wealth, so she has


    no right to take half of it. She’s dreaming!”


    Thaddeus, dyed by Sophia, missed the best opportunity to catch up with Bertha. He watched


    helplessly as Bertha led Lea out of the restaurant…

    “Enough! Let me through! I need to bring them back! Bertha rarely returns here, and she doesn’t know


    anyone here. Where could she take Lea!”


    Sophia frowned, looking sympathetic. “Dad, she’s the one who wants a divorce, not you! If she’s lost


    here, it’s her own choice, not your fault! Dad, you can’t let them control you anymore. You’re the great


    Thaddeus!”


    “Who I am doesn’t matter. I still have to take care of my wife and children!” Thaddeus was anxious.


    Unable to get past Sophia, he quickly instructed his employees to chase after Bertha!


    Sophia didn’t want Thaddeus to chase after Bertha and Lea. She believed Bertha was manipting the


    situation, deliberately making Thaddeus beg for her. She didn’t want to y into Bertha’s hands!


    To her surprise, her defiance earned her a stinging p from Thaddeus!


    SMACK!


    Sophia stared at her father in disbelief. “Dad, you hit me? You hit me for them?”


    Thaddeus was furious. “Have you had enough? I’ve always told you to let Lea be. She’s younger than


    you. But you’ve been constantly picking fights, upsetting Bertha! I’ve always favored you; aren’t you


    satisfied? Do you want me to be single for the rest of my life?”


    Sophia covered her cheek, looking at her father with teary eyes. “Dad, you say you favor me, but you


    hit me for them! You’ve never hit me before…”


    Seeing Sophia crying again, Thaddeus hesitated, but then sidestepped Sophia and hurried after Bertha


    and Lea!


    Watching her father leave her behind to find Bertha and Lea, Sophia clenched her fists in anger,


    jealousy, and defiance!


    She wanted to follow and see if Bertha would let Thaddeus beg for forgiveness. But with Marcus still


    here, she couldn’t leave.”


    Sophia turned to look at him. He was calmly drinking water, apparently full from his meal.


    Tristan, was also calm, lookingpletely indifferent!


    Sophia was a little upset. She sat back down, covering her face. “Marcus, why didn’t you say anything


    just now? Didn’t you see that my dad hit me for Bertha and Lea. You didn’t even care!” Marcus looked


    at her and asked, “Are you okay?”


    His nonchnt concern only upset Sophia more.
