Chapter 161

They wouldn’t dare be the first to act, but if everyone moved together, there was nothing to fear.

Ever since Sophie walked that runway at the Spring Collection, the men had been eyeing her figure with greedy desire.

Before, they only dared to imagine. But now that they had the chance, none of them were willing to hold back

Watching the crowd follow Brandon Lawson out, Nina’s smile widened.

Sophie, you’re done for.

Sophie knew clearly she had already walked into a trap. She tried to steady her nerves, searching desperately for a way out.

Just one Brandon Lawson alone was already impossible to escape. And now, with these men stirred up by alcohol and swarming in, there was nowhere left to hide.

If she couldn’t find a way to break free, then even if it meant going down with them, she’d fight to carve out a path for herself!

“Let her go!”

A steady voice cut through the night, and hope flared in Sophie’s chest.

Brandon lowered Sophie from his back and turned to face the man in front of him.

“Liam, don’t act all righteous. When she was your fiancée, you never cherished her–you were too busy fooling around with your own sister. Now you’ve broken off the engagement, and you suddenly want to play the hero?” Brandon’s tone dripped with disdain.

“And you–sitting in a wheelchair, thinking you can stop me and steal her away? You must be joking.”

“I’m not joking. Let her go,” Liam’s voice was icy.

He tapped the armrest of his wheelchair, and a dozen men in black strode out from a nearby alley.

“You plan to take her by force?” Brandon scoffed.

Liam’s lips curled into a cold smile.

“And if I do?”

The men lined up neatly behind him, each one wearing the Morgan family’s special guard insignia.

Everyone knew the Morgan bodyguards were almost all ex mercenaries. They might not take on a hundred alone, but ten against one was no problem.

And the Morgans‘ guards could only be commanded by the family head–or the future beir

Yet here was Liam, a mere side branch nobody, casually summoning over a dozen guards. That alone was enough to send chills down anyone’s spine,

Brandon backed up a few steps, his tone softening.

“Since you’ve put it that way, I’ll let it slide this time.”

He turned to his men.

“Scatter. Go back inside and keep drinking. Nightfall Bar’s packed with women–pick whoever you like. Tonight’s bill is on me!”

With Brandon backing down, the others didn’t dare push it further. They quickly followed him back into Nightfall Bar.

“Sophie, are you all right? He didn’t hurt you, did he?”

Liam rolled up to her, his voice gentle.

“I was wondering why Nina just happened to be here.”

Sophie gave a cold laugh. “So it was all your little setup. Well? Have you enjoyed your big hero act?”

A flicker of surprise crossed Liam’s eyes. He hadn’t expected her to see through him so quickly.

But in the next instant, his expression was calm again.

“Sophie, you have to believe me. Whatever I did, it was only because I want you”

“That’s a pretty childish trick for winning me back,” Sophie snapped. “First slap me, then hand me a candy–you think I’m an idiot?”

“Sophie, I know I hurt you before. But I’ve realized my mistakes. I swear I’ll never let you down again. Just give me another chance, please?”

“Impossible.”

Her face

was

motionless. “Tomorrow, go to the notary and return Liora to me. I don’t want any ties with you anymore.”

“AS–Lena is already carrying your child. Yey were YER W

“Sophie, even

if Lena’s having my child, there’s nothing between us emotionally!” Liam lowered his voice, eyes filled with desperate affection.

“Sophie, the only one I’ve ever loved is you…”

“Shut up!”

She glared at him in disgust. “Liam, you make me sick.”

She threw the words down and walked away.

Liam watched her retreating back, his gaze darkening.

His hand clenched tight on the wheelchair armrest, veins bulging across his knuckles.

Return Liora to Sophie? Cut off the last thread tying them together?

No.

Never.

He wheeled himself into Nightfall Bar, uncapped a bottle of liquor, and drank hard–like only that burn could make him forget the looming end of everything with Sophie,
