Chapter 92
Damian just thought Blake was insane-he never believed the man would actually dare lay a hand on him.
But when Isabelle caught wind of it, she hired a private investigator to dig into Blake.
She sat in the back of her luxury car, flipping through the report.
Blake’s current situation:
-Broke, drowning in debt, his family in ruins.
-His wife had left him. His mother was gone.
-To get by, he drove a beat-up van, delivering food for a living.
The only thing that hadn’t changed was the way he cursed Damian’s name every single day.
She had been wondering how to get rid of Sophia.
And just like that, the perfect pawn fell right into her hands.
Even if something went wrong, any investigation would lead back to Blake—not her.
Isabelle didn’t act directly.

Instead, she used a burner number to send Blake a message:
[Want to destroy Damian?]
[The one he can’t live without shows up at Mercy Grace Hospital every night at 7.]
[Here’s her photo. Don’t get the wrong person.]
Attached was a photo.
A clear, front-facing shot of Isabelle herself, dressed in a hospital gown, walking outside Mercy Grace Hospital.
Everything had been planned from the very beginning.
She had lured Blake into kidnapping her, then deliberately left just enough clues for Liam to find.
No wonder that night at the hospital, just before she disappeared, she had said-
“Sophia… you’ve gotten smarter. Fine. This time, I’ll let you see for yourself… who Damian will choose.”
She had already set the stage. Chosen the scapegoat.
All that was left was for Damian to walk straight into the trap—

and for Sophia to be finished off for good.
Sophia’s fingers tightened.
Hatred surged through her like a tidal wave.
That night, before Isabelle was found, Damian had already assumed it was her.
Isabelle had “disappeared” right after showing up to apologize.
Of course he thought she was jealous-petty, vindictive.
After all… when it came to Isabelle, he had always been like this.
She was his priority. How could he ever let her get hurt?
As for Sophia, she had never been more than an afterthought.
The memory hit her like a blow.
She thought of that night-when he had dangled her in midair, threatening her, demanding answers.
Her vision swam. Her whole body trembled.
“Sophia-what’s wrong?”
guljan noticed immediately. He stepped forward and pulled her

into his arms, gently patting her back.
“It’s okay. I’m here. No one’s going to hurt you.”
“That night… when Isabelle was kidnapped… Damian thought it
was me…”
Under his steady voice, Sophia slowly calmed down, but her eyes were still red.
“He hung me up and kept questioning me… No matter how many times I said it wasn’t me, he wouldn’t believe me.”
Her voice trembled.
“I really thought I was going to die that night… It was so high, so cold… I almost blacked out…”
She broke down again.
“And even after Liam confirmed it was Blake, he still didn’t let me go. He… traded me for Isabelle.”
At that moment, her heart shattered completely.
“I thought he married me because he loved me. But I was wrong. He married me… for her.”
Julian said nothing. He just waited and let her finish.■

But the fury in his chest surged like a storm barely contained.
After a while, Sophia forced out a bitter smile.
“You probably don’t know…”
“Three years ago, at Connor’s birthday party, he confessed to Isabelle. That’s when I realized… he had always loved her.”
“Damian married me just to keep me away from Connor. He wanted to tie me down so I’d never go back to him.”
She let out a soft, hollow laugh.
“Some marriage, huh?”
Then her voice broke.
“But why is it… everyone chooses Isabelle? No one ever chooses me. No one ever asks if I’m okay.”
“As a daughter… as a wife… I’ve failed at both. No one cares about me.”
The smile on her lips was more painful than tears.
“I do.”
