Chapter 4
Sophia chuckled awkwardly, “I didn’t mean to eavesdrop, just happened to walk by. I’m really sorry for causing such a hassle for you and your folks This whole marriage was a comedy of errors, anyway. We’re from different worlds You’ve got your own true love, and I’ve got my pride. Your parents can’t stand me, and I’m not about to twist myself into a pretzel to fit in. So, let’s just call it quits, shall we?”
Brandon’s eyes were locked onto her, his lips pressed into a thin line, silent.-
Sophia held his gaze quietly too.
I know my family background and personal circumstances might not be up to par with yours, but there’s someone out there who’ll think I’m the bee’s knees. I won’t force a square peg into a round hole, Sophia said with a smile, “I wish you and Yolanda all the best May you lovebirds find your happily ever after.”
Brandon remained silent
Sophia didn’t push the conversation further. She offered a polite smile and turned to head back to her room.
“Yolanda is Mr. Frost’s youngest daughter. She went missing when she was five. I was the one who lost sight of her, Brandon suddenly spoke up
Sophia turned around in surprise
“If she’s still alive, she’d be about your age, he continued, locking eyes with her.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t know about her.” Sophia instinctively apologized.
“It’s fine,” Brandon cut her off. “There’s no issue of one of us not being good enough for the other. I’m sorry I didn’t take better care of you”
“It’s my fault, Sophia said.
“It’s not on you,” Brandon exhaled softly, regaining his usual composure, “I’ll have the lawyers handle the divorce, and make sure the assets are divided fairly
“No need,” Sophia declined with a smile, “It really wasn’t anything to do with me anyway.”
Brandon didn’t respond, just watched her quietly from a short distance, his gaze as deep and still as a dark, bottomless pool
Sophia’s smile faltered, her hand gesturing towards the back, “Well. I’ll be off then”
