Chapter 89
“Call the police? Sure. I happen to have the contact information of a police officer. Do you want me to call him over for you? I can also ask him to investigate the truth behind my car accident back then.”
“Oh, that’s right. I should ask him to investigate your father’s illegal income over the years. I reckon that all of that should be enough to let him spend the rest of his life in prison.”
Marina took out her phone generously with a smile on her face.
“You… What nonsense are you talking about? All of my businesses have always been legal and proper. I have never earned any illegal income!” When Alan heard Marina’s words, a hint of guilt flashed across his face.
“Is that so? Since you’re so certain, there’s nothing for you to worry about. It shouldn’t be a problem for the police to investigate,” Marina said as she started dialing a number to make a call.
“Wait a minute!” Alan could not pretend anymore and quickly raised his hand to stop her.
Then, he took a deep breath and looked at Marina as if he had made up his mind. “I’ve already done what you asked me to do. I’ve already called her over. You can take her away now and do whatever you want with her, but can you let me go?”
“Dad, what are you talking about?” When Sophia heard Alan’s words, her face turned pale.
“Don’t you get it? This good father of yours chose himself over you. In order to survive, he’s giving you to me. He even said that I can do whatever I want with you,” Marina said slowly.
“Dad, is what she said true?” Sophia looked at Alan in disbelief.
“Sophia, I’ve raised you for so many years. No matter what your request is, I’ve never rejected you. Now, it’s time for you to repay me,” Alan said.
“You…” Sophia did not expect Alan to sacrifice her..
“Dad, are you crazy? This woman got to where she is by selling her body. I’m about to marry Gordon and become a member of the Campbell family. At that time, I can do whatever I want in Solemwood. How can you be so stupid to be fooled by her words?”
Sophia was exasperated.
Alan was about to speak when Marina interrupted him.
“He’s not stupid. You’re the stupid one!”
“Shut up! When I become Gordon’s wife, I will deal with you first! You better beware!” Sophia turned around and glared at Marina with bloodshot eyes.
“Heh, Gordon’s wife? Even if he is standing right here, I won’t even look at him. Didn’t you ask him for help previously? So what? Isn’t your family still bankrupt? Gordon is just famous in the tiny Solemwood. Outside of Solemwood, he’s nothing!”
“He can’t even protect himself now, and you’re still expecting him to protect you? What a joke!”
Marina looked at Sophia as if she was looking at a pitiful worm.
“Why you…” Sophia was rendered speechless by Marina’s words.
Gordon had indeed promised her that he would help the Rodriguez family.
However, in just a few hours, the Rodriguez family had completely collapsed.
Sophia was certain that Gordon would not lie to her. The only possibility was that even Gordon could not save her family.
Chapter 89
“Who the hell are you?” For the first time, Sophia looked Marina in the eye.
“It doesn’t matter who I am. What’s important is that you’ve already been abandoned by the Rodriguez family!”
“You’re no longer the noble and mighty Sophia Rodriguez. All this while, you’ve looked down upon everyone around
“But look at you now. So what if you were favored before? When danger comes, you will still be abandoned!”
“So in a sense, you are no different from Jessica. You are also an abandoned child!” Marina said.
Sophia’s face turned pale. Her hands that were hanging by her sides clenched into fists and she gritted her teeth
Her curly eyelashes fluttered uncontrollably and her eyes were filled with embarrassment.
Marina could have quietly captured Sophia.
However, she did not do that. Instead, she asked Alan to call her over.
It was
all for this!
She wanted to let Sophia know that she had never been a special existence.
Marina wanted Sophia to know that when one’s interest was at stake, she would also be mercilessly abandoned.
Just like how they had treated Jessica all this while.
As for Sophia who had always been arrogant, this was a fatal blow.
“Marina Bailey!” Sophia gritted her teeth.
She wished she could pounce on this woman and bite her to death!
“Call Gordon and ask him to come over now.” Looking at Sophia’s ferocious face, Marina still felt a little dissatisfied.
“What are you going to do? What else do you want?” Sophia’s expression changed when she heard this.
“Just do as I say. There’s a limit to my patience,” said Marina.
Lee walked over and grabbed Sophia’s arm.
Sophia’s face instantly turned pale from the pain. She could not help but want to shout.
you.”
“I… I’ll call him! Hurry up and tell him… let go of me!” Sophia felt that her shoulder was about to be crushed by this person.
Marina gave Lee a look and he immediately let go of her.
Sophia quickly retreated to the side. Her shoulders were still trembling uncontrollably.
“I’ll give you ten minutes. If Gordon doesn’t show up after ten minutes, I’ll repay you tenfold for what you did to Jessica.” Marina said with a serious expression. She was not joking at
Sophia quickly took out her phone with trembling hands and dialed Gordon’s number.
