Chapter 806

Chapter 806 Was There Really Nothing Else?

Is she begging me? Is Mrs. Gray begging me now? In that instant, Sonia was overwhelmed with

complicated emotions as she asked herself whether she was happy about it. Soon, she quickly had an

answer to her own question—no. While she reckoned she should feel unhappy to see her enemy

begging her, she somehow didn’t feel happy at all. Right now, she could only feel a myriad of emotions.

At that moment, Titus was too overwhelmed by surprise to even be bothered by Sonia’s emotions as he

glared at Julia agitatedly. “What are you doing?! Why are you begging her?” You’re embarrassing me in

front of Sonia, Julia.

Meanwhile, Julia obviously knew that her action of begging Sonia had reflected badly on the Gray Family

by making it seem submissive to the Reed Family. However, she couldn’t be bothered by that as she was

too desperate and curious to know the story behind Sonia’s scar. “Look, Titus. There is a scar on her

wrist.” Julia quickly flashed Sonia’s wrist in front of Titus as she spoke to him in an agitated manner.

“What scar?” Titus frowned. He felt a surge of anger coursing through him, but in the end, he reluctantly

did as Julia said and set his eyes on Sonia’s wrist. However, when his eyes fell upon it, he froze and

wondered about the spot where the scar was on her skin. The scar… It’s where Rina’s red mole used to

be.

Titus finally realized why his wife was so agitated because he knew she must have discovered what he

had previously assumed and thought that Sonia was Rina, but deep down, he didn’t think that was true.

Therefore, he tried to remind Julia of the reality by telling her that it was Sonia they were talking to, not

Rina. We found Rina a long time ago, and she’s staying at home right now. Do not get influenced by the

press conference that day. Wake up!

However, Julia stared at Sonia tearfully as complicated emotions filled her eyes. “W-What’s the story

behind your scar?”

In response to Julia’s unusual agitation, Sonia frowned her eyebrows and asked, “Why are you asking

me about my scar?” I have your daughter, Rina, to thank for this scar. How else do you think I got this

scar otherwise?

“Please just answer me first. How did you get the scar?” Julia seized Sonia’s wrist and wrapped her

fingers tightly around it as she sounded more and more desperate. “Was there anything else here before

you got the scar? Please answer me!” She desperately asked Sonia for an answer, wanting to know the

truth behind her scar.

In the meantime, Sonia only pursed her lips in silence, her eyes fixed on Julia whose anxiety and

impatience had gotten better of her. While she had a red mole in the same spot before she got the scar,

there was somehow a voice in her head that told her not to tell Julia anything about her wrist because it

would invite chaos in the future. As a believer of her own intuition, Sonia decided to follow her hunch, not

to mention her personal vendetta with Julia. Without any idea why Julia was so concerned about her

scar, she believed that Julia must be harboring an ulterior motive for doing that. Thus, Sonia didn’t think

she should tell her enemy anything, fearing it could be a trap that was meant for her to fall into. At the

thought of that, she looked down and hid her expression. “Nope, there used to be nothing on my wrist at

all. Nothing! I got the scar from a burn not long ago,” she replied.

As Sonia retracted her arm from Julia, the latter was suddenly sent falling backward due to the sudden

jerk. Seeing that, she quickly stretched out her hand to reach for Julia because she didn’t want her to fall,

but before she could do so, Titus was already one step ahead of her as he wrapped his arm around his

wife’s shoulders and saved her from the fall.

Meanwhile, Sonia heaved a sigh of relief and quietly took her arm back, trying to make it seem like she

hadn’t done anything at all. Nonetheless, that didn’t change the concern and worry within her as she

couldn’t help but wonder why she would be worried for Julia who nearly fell. I must be out of my mind! In

fact, ever since she met Julia in the hospital the last time, her impression toward her had somehow

improved even though she couldn’t explain why. Therefore, she was panicky about the unusual feelings

that were overwhelming her.

“Are you alright?” Titus looked at Julia with a panicked look on his face.

“I’m fine.” Julia nodded her head, feeling a little upset.

After glimpsing Julia for a while, Titus looked up and turned his attention to Sonia with a darkened

expression as he spoke unpleasantly. “Is this how Henry taught his daughter to become an uncivilized

person? How could you just shove someone away like that?”

Upon hearing that, Sonia lost her temper and stared back at Titus without flinching. “That’s funny, Mr.

Gray. Did you just say I shoved her away? When did I do that? Wasn’t she the one who grabbed my wrist

first? She nearly fell because she lost her footing when I tried to retract my arm from her, so how does

that make me the one who shoved her away? If you really want to do this, I could also say that it was

Mrs. Gray who tried to take advantage of me because she grabbed me by the wrist in the first place.

How does that sound?”

Upon hearing Sonia’s reply, the expression on Titus’ face took an uglier turn. Just as the two of them

were about to engage in a heated argument, Julia immediately seized Titus’ arm in desperation and told

him to calm down. “Alright, Titus. Don’t stoop to her level. We’re out in the open where there are people

around us, so let’s not embarrass ourselves here.” Deep down, Julia couldn’t stand watching the two of

them argue because that was what broke her heart.

While Tina and Rina had both argued with Titus before, she never felt such a strong urge to stop Sonia

and Titus from quarreling with each other because she simply couldn’t bear to watch it. Although she had

never experienced something like this in the past, it felt confusing yet new to her. Strangely enough, she

even wished that Sonia and Titus would get along well with each other. What’s wrong with me? Julia

fiddled with her palms and set her eyes on Sonia’s wrist. “Sonia, was there really nothing on your wrist?

Like a…”

“No! Nothing!” Sonia pursed her lips and cut her short rudely. “I’ve already said no, so what makes you

think asking me a few more times is going to change anything?”

Julia’s eyes darkened as disappointment was written all over her pale face. She then blinked and

responded with a hoarse voice. “Are you sure…”

Upon seeing Julia’s sympathetic look, Sonia began to feel a pang of guilt on the inside as her heart

started to pound faster and faster. The next second, Sonia’s face turned as pale as a white sheet when

she noticed that. Damn! Something must be really wrong with me! My heart is pounding, and I’m feeling

both panicky and guilty. Why would I feel guilty toward Mrs. Gray, though? She clenched her fists, and

her breathing intensified while she struggled to accept the truth.

Soon, Sonia quickly realized how much Julia was affecting her rationality, and she recalled the last time

when the woman had shown her concern in the elevator. It was then that she started to care more about

Julia’s feelings, making her think she was not in the right mind. Thus, Sonia closed her eyes and tried to

force herself to calm down.

I must leave! I have to get out of here now! If I stay here any longer, I’m going to get brainwashed by

Mrs. Gray. This woman is like a toxin that spreads. At the thought of that, Sonia grabbed her blueberry

cake and took a deep breath. She suppressed her anxiety while trying to make herself sound as calm as

possible. “Mrs. Gray, I don’t know why you’re so interested in my scar. I don’t care what you’re up to

either, but you’d better not try any monkey business on me. Otherwise…”
