Her Divorce, His Downfall (Sophia and Damian) novel Chapter 94

Chapter 94

It felt like someone had ripped a piece straight out of his chest.

The pain hit so hard Julian almost lost his balance.

He’d missed his chance again.

When she was eighteen, there was Connor.

When she was twenty-two, there was Damian.

And once again, all he could do was walk away.

Why was fate so cruel to him?

He had protected her since she was little.

Yet before he could even confess his feelings, he had to watch her fall for someone else… again and again.

All he could do was leave quietly.

No one knew that when Julian saw Damian and Sophia’s wedding photos, jealousy nearly drove him insane. He was heartbroken.

Walking away from her felt like every bone in his body was breaking.

So he fled to Northern Europe alone, nursing wounds no one could see.

Still… he survived it.

Now she was twenty-five, and he was back.

This time, no matter what happened, he would never let her go.

“I don’t love Damian.”

Sophia’s voice snapped Julian out of his memories.

“I used to think he married me because he loved me. That’s why I agreed to marry him.”

She paused, her tone calm but tired.

“After everything we’ve been through… all the life-and-death stuff… I finally understand. He doesn’t love me at all. The person he loves is Isabelle.”

A soft sigh escaped her lips.

“So… it’s better if we separate.”

Julian stayed silent, listening.

Then Sophia added slowly, almost casually, “You kept the news that I’m here tightly under wraps, didn’t you?”

She let out another faint sigh.

“Then everyone in New York probably thinks I’m dead by now, right?”

Sophia knew one thing for sure.

Without Julian, she probably wouldn’t have survived this long. She might have died when she was eight… or twelve.

Losing her mother had shattered her world.

The grief had nearly swallowed her whole. She had hovered on the edge of depression for years.

But what hurt even more was that Michael ignored her completely.

All his love and attention went to Isabelle.

Little by little, Sophia felt herself go from the pampered Ms.

Anderson to nothing at all.

Only Julian never changed.

Alghose years, he had stood by her side, shielding her from 4:36

every storm.

He had cared for her like a fragile seedling trembling in the rain… until she finally grew into a flower strong enough to face the wind on her own.

And yet… she had let him down.

Again and again, Isabelle framed her, and somehow Sophia had turned into the most miserable joke in New York.

For the first three years of her marriage, everything had gone smoothly. She hadn’t even bothered with bodyguards.

But ever since Damian failed to show up on her mother’s death anniversary, everything had fallen apart.

First, she was grounded and injured. Michael even called to excuse her from work. Then came the hospitalization.

Damian and Isabelle leaked the video of her hitting someone, setting off a public witch hunt. Then she was attacked in her hospital room.

Then Isabelle got “kidnapped.” Damian came for her and dragged her to that warehouse. The stabbing. The fire. The explosion.

hospital bed.

Then Sophia thought about how she’d had Bella expose the Anderson family’s scandals. Michael had been humiliated

because of it.

Knowing him, he would definitely call a board meeting and try

to force her out as CEO.

Losing the title didn’t matter.

But she would never let them assume she was dead and quietly

take her shares.

Those shares were her real leverage.

When Elaine married Michael, she invested a hundred million dollars in exchange for Zenith Corporation’s original shares under Sophia’s name.

Add Sophia’s inheritance, along with the dividends she earned during her three years managing Zenith Corporation…

She held thirty percent.

And then there was the ten percent Damian had transferred to her after saving Isabelle that time.

59gly percent in total.

There was no way she was letting them take that for free.

And now she was worried about the people who truly cared about her-Stella, Gloria, Bella.

If they believed she had died in that fire… they must have been devastated.

Especially Gloria. The shock might worsen her already fragile health.

As for Michael, Damian, Isabelle, and Rhea?

Please. They were probably already celebrating her death, eager to divide up her assets.

Julian’s gaze darkened, his brows drawing together as he spoke.

“Sophia, until you’ve fully recovered, I’m not letting Damian get anywhere near you again.”

He hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he decided to tell her

anyway.

“He’s tearing New York apart looking for you.”

Julian exhaled slowly.
