Chapter 25: The Painful Truth

(Sophia’s POV)

Marcus left without staying long. I watched his retreating figure with clenched fists, almost grinding my teeth in anger.

He had clearly said he would stay to accompany Oliver. But now he was leaving.

Was it because of that b***h Elena? I consoled myself that it couldn’t be true.

After our ten years of relationship, with me only being away for six years, how could he possibly change his heart?

I understood Marcus’s character too well. He was an Alpha who would rather have nothing than settle.

He wasn’t someone who would casually fall in love. His continued protection of Oliver and me reinforced my belief that I still held a place in his heart.

Elena was merely a plaything unworthy of my concern.

Meanwhile, in my office, I rolled up my pants to examine my knees. They were covered in bruises and floor marks from my earlier fall.

David suddenly pushed open the door carrying a lunch box. He caught sight of my injuries immediately.

“Sister, what happened to your knee!” he exclaimed, setting the lunch box on my desk.

He noticed the wound on my forehead as well. His anger flared immediately.

“Who dared to bully you?” he demanded, ready to storm out and confront someone.

I quickly grabbed him. “I fell by myself.”

David’s face showed disbelief. “You couldn’t fall so badly on your own.”

“The hospital stairs are disinfected and mopped daily,” I explained. “I slipped without paying attention.”

I smiled slightly. “Do you plan to fight the stairs?”

David brought old hen soup that our mother Patricia had made. “There was extra and Mom wanted you to try some.”

As I looked at the warm soup, I fell into silence. I remembered how I could only eat my mother’s hot, home–cooked meals when David was home.

Even then, I could only have what he didn’t want. The leftover meat, snacks, and fresh fruits.
