Chapter 448 Sophia hadnt expected Finnian to come after the Love & Spell his hands on it , he could reclaim the luck he had lost, and that would mean her protection was gone .
Even worse , he had come out with If he Windsor before .
Was this his idea , or was Windsor pulling the strings from behind the scenes ? Had Windsor abandoned me too ? Sophia thought .
After all , he had once been so fond of her .
Three years ago , he had taken her innocence , telling her that as long as she behaved , he would make her a top star Not talking , huh ? Looks like you dont want your eyes anymore , Finnian sneered , losing his patience .
With a malicious grin , he took the toothpick and aimed it at her eye , but at the last second , he missed , stabbing it into her cheek with a sickening Thunk Sophia screamed in pain , her face burning as she felt the sharp jab .
Ah ! My face ! Sophia gasped , her hands instinctively covering the wound , but the toothpick was still lodged deep in her flesh .
She dared not touch it further , her eyes wide with shock .
Finnian had really gone this far .
Sorry , missed .
Finnian mocked with a twisted smile , watching her squirm in pain .
His satisfaction seemed almost pathological as he admired her suffering .
With that sadistic grin still plastered on his face , Finnian slowly pulled the toothpick out of her cheek .
Where should I stab next ? Finnian said .
Fresh blood poured down her face , and Sophias body jolted in pain as she let out a muffled groan She collapsed onto the ground , her head spinning as she watched Finnian hold the bloody toothpick and lift her chin with it .
His gleaming with a disturbing hunger as the toothpick traced her neck , then wandered lower , sliding dangerously close to her exposed skin .
eyes Were Sophia trembled , a sickening dread pooling in her stomach .
She instinctively inched backward , but he grabbed the strap of her top , yanking it as though he was going to tear her apart .
One sharp tug , and shed be left exposed .
Finnian , dont touch me ? Sophia cried , her voice breaking , desperation filling her chest .
Before she could finish speaking , Finnian kicked her viciously in the ribs , silencing her pleas .
Touch you ? Do you think I want to touch you ? Finnian sneered , his voice cold , Look at yourself ! You really think you deserve anything from me ? If you hadnt ruined my life , I wouldve been married to Odalys by now He leaned in closer , his breath hot and sharp in her ear .
If you dont give me the Love Spell right now , Ill tear you apart .
Believe me .
He no longer had any shred of kindness left in him .
To him , life and death had become indistinguishable .
These days , he didnt dare go out in the rain or touch water .
If he did , within a month , he would rot from the inside and die .
He didnt doubt Odalyss words , he knew she wasnt the type to lic , and there was no reason for her to deceive him especially when lying to him wouldnt benefit her at all .
His life now hung by a thread .
Let me go , and Ill give you Love Spell , Sophia but her lip and whispered , the words laced with desperation .
As soon as she finished speaking , Finnian withdrew his hand .
He stood there , a mocking smile on his face , and said .
Shouldve said that earlier , huh ? No need to drag it out with all this nonsense Sophia pushed herself up from the ground , glaring at him with venom in her eyes , wishing she could kill him right then and there .
But the truth was , her strength was no match for his .
And Love Spell was her last trump card .
She couldnt afford to give it up easily .
But for now , she had to play along , bide her time , and wait for the right moment to escape .
12:05 PM d Chapter 415 .
I dont have it on on me .
But ify you 1 take me to the Bennett family family .
Ill get it for you , Sophia lied , her voice steady , but her heart pounded with fear , Finnian narrowed his eyes , skeptical but intrigued .
He wasnt about to trust her , not after everything that had happened .
You think Im stupid ? If it was at the Bennett family , do you really think Windsor would still be after you ? You think Im an idiot ? I Finnian roared , grabbing her by the hair and yanking her up roughly .
Sophia gasped , her scalp stinging as he dragged her to her feet .
She couldnt fight him , he was too strong , and she was too weak .
His anger boiled over , and he threw a punch at her .
Sophia had no time to react , and the next moment , she was sent flying to the ground , her vision going black as her body crashed against the dirt .
Finnian stood over her , breathing heavily , as if trying to regain control of himself .
Damn women , always a hassle .
With a grunt of frustration , he grabbed her arm and threw her over his shoulder like a ragdoll , carrying her away into the shadows .
Meanwhile , in the darkness , someone had been watching .
A figure stepped out from the shadows , hurriedly pulling out a phone .
Mr.
Lark .
Ive been tracking Finnian .
Ive got a video should I continue following him ? It was one of Orsons bodyguards , When Orson received the call , he opened the video immediately .
He had been following Finnian ever since Odalys had forced him to leave the hospital , determined to learn everything about Sophias connection to the Love Spell .
Finnian was desperate to recover his lost luck , and the bodyguard knew that if they kept following him , it would be easy to uncover the truth .
Continue following him .
Dont let him out of your sight , Orson said coldly , his mind already plotting his next move .
Back at the Bennett Villa , the house was eerily quiet , Hannah sat on the couch , her body shaking from pain .
Atlas was at her side , administering a painkiller that slowly began to ease her discomfort .
Mom , if this keeps up , you wont last much longer .
The painkillers we have are from illegal sources , and were running out , Atlas said , concern etched across his face .
Since offending Odalys , the Bennett family had been ostracized from all medical facilities .
Any hospital or clinic affiliated with the Lark Group refused to treat them , cutting them off from essential medicine, Hannah groaned in frustration , the pain taking a toll on her Windsor still hasnt come back ? she asked , her voice weak , her gaze unfocused as she stared at the empty villa .
No.
After Dad left last night , we havent heard from him .
His phones off , and when I asked his friends , they said he hasnt been in contact with anyone since returning to the country .
Its like hes disappeared .
Atlas reported , scratching his head nervously .
Hannahs face tightened .
Seems like hes really made up his mind to leave the Bennett family .
All because of Sophia ⦠Did he really think he could everything just because she was carrying his child ? Now look at the mess shes made of everything .
Her words were laced with bitterness and regret .
If she had known Sophi But now , it was too late .
Sophia would lead to all this chaos , she would never have adopted her .
