Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

Chapter 802

The air in Sophia’s room hung heavy with tension.

Sophia was once pampered by Javier. He might even be more attentive to her than to Newton when Newton was sick. When she fell ill, Javier would worry and visit her daily.

Yet, after three days, he hadn’t shown up, which was a first.

She leaned weakly against the headboard, her lips trembling. Through her tears, she stared longingly at him.

Sophia started, “Javier, have you been busy? I know it’s hard to get away from the work at Beckett Group. I understand. I’m fine, though. Just a ruptured eardrum and I’ve had surgery-”

Javier interrupted with a low, stern voice, “Sophie, I’m here to ask you something. Was Alyssa telling the truth?”

Sophia was caught off guard, and her eyes wavered.

“Javier, do you still doubt me? But I’m your wife. You know how I treated you over the years. I’ve given you two daughters and risked my life giving birth to Lauren. After all I’ve sacrificed, how could I possibly cheat on you with a murder suspect?”

She wailed, “Javier, don’t you love me anymore? This is what happens when you don’t love a person- you’ll distrust her! Everything she does will look suspicious to you.”

her rage, unease, and nervousness lurked. Her confrontation masked her inner panic.
