Her Divorce, His Downfall (Sophia and Damian) novel Chapter 117

Chapter 117

A crushing weight slammed into her chest, the agony exploding through her

heart.

The world spun and darkened around her.

Isabelle’s vision swam, the searing pain radiating from her core outward.

A coppery taste flooded her mouth before she coughed up a violent gush of blood.

In the fading moments before unconsciousness claimed her, her gaze drifted through the shattered car window.

The sight that met her eyes made them widen in disbelief.

A low, ragged whisper escaped her bloody lips. HHow is he not dead?

She had poured everything into

destroying him, only to find herself broken while he walked away.

The sheer, twisted injustice of it all was maddening.

A violent impulse surgedto slam her foot on the gas and finish the job right here, right now.

But her hand, trembling and weak, barely grazed the steering wheel before falling limply to her side.

Darkness swallowed her whole.

Stumbling out, he was just in time to see Isabelle’s supercar, like a metal suicide note, hurtle straight for the cliff edge.

What the hell is wrong with that girl?he

muttered under his breath.

Her logicif it could be called thatwas beyond him today.

But her ruthlessness was crystal clear. She was just as unhinged as Damian, both of them hellbent on killing him with a complete disregard for their own lives.

Ridiculous.

He took a moment, lungs burning, to curse their entire family trees under his 2:37

Just as he thought he could finally catch his breath and wait for help, a sharp,

acrid scent cut through the air.

Gasoline. Her car was leaking.

His heart stuttered, then hammered against his ribs.

In an instant, he was sprinting toward the wrecked vehicle, its nose hanging precariously over the shattered guardrail.

Ignoring the protest in his injured arm, he wrenched the crumpled door open with all his strength and hauled Isabelle’s unconscious form from the driver’s seat.

He had just dragged her clear and collapsed with her onto the gravel 12:37

shoulder when the precarious balance

failed.

With a groan of tearing metal, the supercar tipped, then plummeted over the edge.

Sebastian didn’t even have time to inhale. A deafening BOOM tore through the canyon air.

A fireball erupted from below, painting the sky in violent oranges and reds. The concussive heatwave from the explosion roared up the cliff face, nearly lifting them off the ground.

Ahead, Damian heard nothing but the roar of his own engine and the pounding of his own heart. His sole focus was the 2:37

As his Bugatti’s tires screamed across it, a distant, muffled thunder echoed from behind. Then, shouts pierced the celebratory noise of the finish area.

Hey! Something’s wrong back there! That crazy girlshe rammed Sebastian’s

car!

Holy shit, was that an explosion?

Sebastian’s car?

What happened? We need to get back

there!

The words filtered through Damian’s haze of victory and pain.

Crazy girl. Isabelle.

They said she’d crashed into Sebastian.

And that sound was an explosion?

His heart seemed to freeze midbeat

before launching into a frantic, panicked rhythm. A cold dread washed over him.

Shoving aside the medic trying to bandage his bleeding arm, he ignored the sharp sting.

His eyes snapped to Weston and Lucas, finding only matching confusion and alarm on their faces.

Without a word, he snatched a set of keys from a stunned Gale Force member, leaped into the nearest sports car.

Weston and Lucas exchanged a single, worried glance before barking orders.

Within seconds, a convoy of their own vehiclesfollowed closely by the Gale Force medical teamsped after Damian.

They arrived at a scene of chaos.

Damian slammed the car into park, his eyes immediately locking onto the two figures on the ground. Sebastian sat propped against a rock, breathing heavily, his arm clearly injured.

And beside him, pale as death with a trail of blood from her lips lay Isabelle, utterly

Isabelle!

Rage, hot and immediate, overrode

Damian’s fear.

He stormed over, grabbing a fistful of Sebastian’s collar and hauling him up.

The anger in his eyes was a tangible force.

What did you do to her? We had a deal. My fight was with you. Why drag her into this?

Sebastian, wincing at the pressure on his injured arm, met Damian’s furious gaze with one of cold contempt.

Get your facts straight, Mr. Hall. She

came after me. Like a rabid dog trying to:37

run me off the cliff. She wanted us both dead. All I did was get out of her way.

After a deliberate pause, Sebastian let out a low, mocking laugh, his tone dripping with provocation.

And honestly? I wasn’t about to play hero. If she was hellbent on killing herself, who was I to stop her?
