Sofia beamed as she read the news. Her hands trembled as tears slowly fell onto her cheeks. She did not need to check the

articles, as she already knew what was in there. After all, she was the one who exposed the affair to the media.

Last night, she immediately took a picture of her engagement ring and asked Miss Amores to make a post about her

engagement. This was something that Daniel did not expect, but Sofia just made it look like she was so happy and excited to

announce to the world that she already belonged to him. In the end, Daniel was not able to stop her.

Sofia turned the tablet off. She and Karina were the ones who sent those images and other proof. Sofia took a shaky breath.

trying to steady herself. She had thought exposing the affair would be empowering, a way to reclaim control, but the reality

was far from that.

It was as if the world around her had crumbled, leaving her standing in the wreckage of her own emotions. Relief, sadness,

anger, and fury mingled inside her like flowing lava ready to devour her at any given moment.

She already knew that this would be the outcome of her actions, so she easily calmed herself down. This is just the beginning,

she thought as her eyes landed on her phone not too far away.

However, just as she was about to pick it up and open it a hand grabbed her wrist. She looked up and found Alexander not too

far away from her

Out of nowhere, he pulled her into his arms.

Sohas tears blurred the room as she looked up at Mexander. His hand on her wrist felt like an anchor, grounding her amid

emotional chaos She didn’t want him to see her like this, vulnerable and shattered, but there was a strange comfort in the

warmth of his touch.

She could feel his steady heartbeat as he pulled her into his arms, the warmth enveloping her like a protective shield. It was a

safe haven in the middle of the storm inside her, a place where she could let go of the facade she had carefully built. Sofia’s

trembling breaths gradually found solace in the steadiness of Alexander’s presence.

“Didn't | tell you not to cry from another man, again?” His warm and mellowed voice echoed in her ears, breaking through the

silence. Despite the scolding, there was an understanding tone, a softness that eased the sharp edges of her pain.

Sofia pursed her lips, wanting to respond but finding herself speechless. Words seemed inadequate at that moment.

ht of Alexander, sensing her struggle, didn’t press further. Instead, he held her close, allowing her to lean on him as the weight of

her emotions crumbled.

In his arms. Sotia felt a strange mixture of gratitude and vulnerability. She hated that he had witnessed her tears, yet there was

an undeniable comfort in the way he offered silent support.

Sofia did not know how long she cried as she just let all of her emotions out. Finally, she thought inwardly.

Sofia had been waiting. She had been hiding her pain for the perfect time. She thought about seeing the two tangled in bed. and

the only thing that she could think of was letting them suffer in the worst possible way. She had the means to do everything in

one go, but she wanted to scorch the earth.

She wanted to make it big and bold. She wanted to take away something that they liked the most and watch them suffer. Slowly,

she gathered the evidence that she had against them. She worked with paparazzi, Karina, and Alexander just for this finale.

She waited for Daniel to make this proposal. Then she accepted it and immediately let the world know about it..

On the very next day, she released all the evidence that she had against them.

And just as she expected, the media immediately turned to attack Charlotte. Sofia already timed the release of some paid

“keyboard’ warrior that will analyze what happened in the past.

They will soon realize that it was Charlotte who wanted to drag Sofia down. They would soon realize that it was Charlotte who

would create some misunderstanding, making her fans bully Sofia and then immediately apologize, making herself look like the

victim.

By now, the news already reached the ears of Daniel’s father-the very same father who never praised Daniel for his hard

work.

“Don’t answer it,” Alexander’s voice echoed as her phone started vibrating once again.

“That's-” Sofia looked at the caller ID. It was Lawrence.

“Let me-”

“What?” Before Sofia could say another word, Alexander already answered the phone. Luckily, he pressed the loudspeaker

button, giving Sofia access to what Lawrence was saying.

“Sofia, where are you? Have you seen the news? | will send Min to get you. You need to come to the mansion. There is no need

to believe what was on the news. | know that you knew Charlotte enough to understand that she will never betray you
