I Walked Away Seven Years Too Late But Right on Time novel Chapter 246

Once Gillian and Rosemary went to the utility room to wash some dishes, Gavin smiled at Sophie. "Did you see that? When she was holding the baby, Ethan's grandma actually smiled at Ethan's grandpa. Her tone was a lot softer, too."

Sophie smiled and nodded. She had noticed.

"I showed my mom the divorce certificate he sent me last time. She didn't say anything, but she spaced out for a really long time. I don't think she ever actually expected Harold to go through with divorcing Victoria."

Both Sophie and Sarah knew that getting a divorce hadn't been easy for Harold. Victoria had refused to let go, which meant Harold undoubtedly had to surrender a lot in the settlement.

The month Harold officially filed for divorce, Victoria had shown up at Sarah's house to cause a scene.

She had pounded on the door while screaming obscenities.

Gavin had been out of town on business, and Sophie happened to be visiting her mother.

Furious, Sophie had grabbed a kitchen knife, intending to scare Victoria off, but Sarah had held her back, terrified that in the heat of the moment, Sophie might do something reckless.

Yes, she was no longer a rebellious teenager. She was a daughter and a wife. Going to prison over someone like Victoria simply wasn't worth it.

Seething with helpless rage, Sophie had called building security, and then called Harold, unleashing all her anger on him.

"Keep a leash on your psycho wife. If she ever dares harass my mother again, I won't hold back."

Even though security eventually dragged Victoria away kicking and screaming, Sophie remained furious for days.

That kind of slap on the wrist was never going to be enough to teach Victoria a lesson. What if she came back to harass her mother again?

Sure enough, when Sophie was four months pregnant, Victoria returned.

After visiting Eileen Harper at the detention center, Victoria was an emotional wreck and far more unhinged than the first time. She kicked the door violently, her curses even more vile.

This time, Sophie and Gavin were at their new house, leaving Sarah home alone.

A neighbor called to alert them, and Sophie immediately panicked.

Gavin, terrified the stress would harm the baby, insisted she stay home while he went to handle it.

Before leaving, Gavin called security and asked the neighbor to record a video of Victoria kicking the door and screaming.

Then, he directly called the police, pressing charges against Victoria for disturbing the peace.

Sophie heard about what happened next from their female neighbor.
