Diana staggered back, a flash of rage crossing her face, as she grabbed a wine bottle to strike at Sophia again.
Even as Jason was dealing with Robin, he kept an eye on Sophia's situation. Seeing Diana getting vicious, he dashed over, kicking the wine bottle out of her hand with precision.
Diana stumbled from the kick, but Sophia, far from satisfied, chased after her with a large bouquet in hand.
Struggling to her feet, Diana tried to fight back.
Sophia, wielding the hefty bouquet, held the upper hand, keeping Diana at bay with ease.
In no time, Diana's pale face was marred with bloody streaks as she retreated, screaming in agony!
Sophia pressed on, smacking Diana's face with the bouquet. When the flowers fell off, she switched to whipping her with the stems.
"I always knew you were trouble, thinking you're clever, seducing someone else's boyfriend? Does that make you feel accomplished?"
"No need to scheme anymore, here, he's all yours!"
"And don't you dare show your face around me ever again, or it's a beating each time I see you!"
Fuming, Sophia's pretty face turned bright red. With all her might, she hurled the bouquet at Diana, finding some satisfaction in watching her adversary's pitiful state, suddenly feeling a lot more relieved.
Meanwhile, Jason had Robin down on the ground, unable to get up. Dusting off his hands, he stepped back, ignoring the sorry pair inside, grabbed Sophia's suitcase with one hand, and led her away with the other, saying in a deep voice,
"Let's go home."
Without looking back, Sophia followed Jason out.
Once they were out of the neighborhood, recalling the recent altercation, Sophia found herself both angry and amused.
Jason asked, "Feeling a bit better now?"
Sophia turned to him, "So, it wasn't about fetching the suitcase. You were taking me to vent out!"
"If someone messes with you, you hit back right away. Why should you be the one to cry in a corner!" Jason patted her head, "Don't let others' mistakes make you suffer."
Sophia playfully shook his wrist, "I just had a breakup, don't be too harsh!"
Jason glanced at her, "This morning you were all about your breakup, and in a blink, you're back in J City!"
Sophia, flustered, said, "I've apologized, stop bringing it up!"
Jason snorted, "When did you apologize? Said sorry to me? I must've missed it!"
Sophia muttered under her breath, "Why should I say sorry to you?"
"Why indeed?" Jason smirked, "At this moment, I could've been comfortably sitting at home celebrating New Year's Eve, but instead, I'm out here in the cold with you!"
Knowing she was at fault, Sophia tightened her grip on his hand, "I'm sorry, I was wrong, oh Great Gilder, my bad!"
The last words came out choked.
She had indeed made a mistake, a big one.
