Her Divorce, His Downfall (Sophia and Damian) novel Chapter 47

Chapter 47

Her heart had been shattered into a thousand pieces by him long ago, but hearing these words, Sophia’s chest still throbbed with unstoppable pain.

“You think just because you’re shameless, everyone else is too?”

Sophia’s fury erupted as she raised her hand and slapped

him hard across the face.

Damian’s head snapped to the side from the blow, his cheek burning with stinging pain. He said nothing.

Her voice turned cold.

“I don’t even know if I count as Mrs. Hall anymore. Most of the time, you two look like the real couple.

“After all, you choose her again and again, abandoning me again and again. The only reason I didn’t die this time wasn’t because of your mercy-it was because Dorothy * saved me.

“Damian, I’m truly exhausted. Please, I’m beggi Noy8-59

“No. You’ll be my wife for the rest of your life. The position of Mrs. Hall will always be yours.

“I’d rather kill myself-or kill him-than watch you and Connor together.”

Sophia couldn’t stand him targeting Connor anymore and raised her voice in exasperation. “He and I are long over! Can you stop bringing him up?”

This sudden, fierce rebuttal caught Damian off guard.

.

So when she said she still loved him last time, it was just to spite him.

Realizing this, wild joy surged through him like a tidal

wave.

All the torment and agony of recent days melted away in his eyes, transforming into blazing heat.

Unable to suppress the restlessness within him any longer, he gripped her neck and crushed his lips against hers.

“Mmph…”

But Damian seemed impervious to pain, as if he wanted to devour her completely, his grip never loosening.

This kiss held no tenderness-only fierce, relentless possession.

Sophia was nearly suffocating under his assault when he still wouldn’t release her.

Not until the metallic taste of blood spread between their lips.

Damian jerked back as if scalded, his hands dropping

away.

Sophia immediately shoved him hard, stumbling backward until she hit the wall.

She wiped her mouth roughly with the back of her hand, fury blazing in her eyes.

Damian stared at her, watching her wipe away all trace of him. That look of disgust cut through whatever

. satisfaction he’d felt.

The room fell silent except for their heavy breathing. 377

them pay.”

Damian’s voice was hoarse as he broke the crushing silence.

He stepped closer, his shadow enveloping her. “I never ordered them to abuse you. I was waiting for you to apologize to Isabelle. You didn’t call me, so I thought…”

“Thought what?” Sophia looked up, her earlier anger now buried under deep exhaustion. “Damian, even now you still don’t believe me. I’m telling you-I did nothing wrong. She insulted my mother. She deserved that slap!

“Every time you instinctively choose Isabelle, you push me further away. I stopped loving Connor long ago, but I don’t love you anymore either. Now I love no one.”

The words hit him like a sledgehammer.

Damian felt as if invisible hands were tearing at his heart, a dull ache spreading through his chest.

. After a long moment, his burning gaze fixed on her as he

found his voice. “Fine. Don’t love me then. As long as you remain Mrs. Hall, everything else is up to you.”

away, avoiding his searing stare. “It’s terrifying. I can’t accept it.”

“Terrifying?” A cold glint flashed in Damian’s eyes as he repeated the word softly.

He reached out, his fingertips gently touching her swollen lips. “Then let it be terrifying. Even if you hate me, I want you by my side.”

He pressed his forehead against hers, his breath hot on her face. “Dorothy saved your life for a reason. You’re meant to stay. So stop talking about divorce.”

Sophia closed her eyes wearily, her long lashes trembling as silent tears slipped down her cheeks.

It was like throwing punches at a brick wall. Nothing got through to him.

This sense of powerlessness made the despair in her heart explode.

She opened her eyes and glared up at him, threatening directly. “I’ll make you regret this.”
