Chapter 249: The Truth

Lennox’s POV

We walked back into the room and realized Sofia was now conscious.

"How are you feeling now?" he asked tenderly, but Sofia frowned at him and slowly forced herself to sit properly on the bed. She met our eyes and flashed us a weak smile before turning back to Damien, who looked tense—and then, unexpectedly, she slapped him hard across the cheek.

Damien looked away.

Her voice cracked on the last word.

Sofia’s hands clenched into fists as she stared down Damien. "How could you marry her?" she spat. "Rebecca was my best friend!"
