Sulking, John stood to step on the man’s ribs. “Who sent you here?”

 

Standing beside him, Sophia turned to look at John in shock. “Did somebody send him?”

As if not hearing John’s question, the man was still huffing in pain while lying on the ground, clutching onto his elbow

with a tortured look on his face. John’s kick came in unanticipated, so the man must’ve tried to brace the impact

out of reflex by using his elbow. When his elbow hit the ground, it produced a tiny, crisp noise, which was followed

by excruciating pain.

However, it was none of John’s concern as he continued to apply pressure onto the man’s ribs. “Who’s behind

you?”

A crowd was starting to gather around them, with the people whispering among themselves in confusion. John ran

his tongue over his teeth while he sniggered. “I have other ways to extract information from you, so your silence

isn’t going to help.”

Holding onto the man’s phone, John made a call from his own phone. The crowd dispersed upon seeing that the

incident was nothing out of the ordinary, as they assumed John was calling either the police or an ambulance. On

the other hand, the man’s elbow was hurting so much that he couldn’t even retaliate.

Meanwhile, Sophia stood aside while leaning against a lamp post, her heart racing. Even though she was panicking,

her mind was still clear. If she wasn’t pregnant, the fall would only serve to topple and bruise her, so it didn’t make

sense that someone would hire the man to hurt her, which meant that the mastermind had something else in mind

while doing that.

A miscarriage might be what the mastermind was aiming for since she was pregnant, which meant someone

probably knew she was pregnant but didn’t wish for the child to be born. The first person that came to mind was

Matilda, as she knew Sophia was pregnant, and seemingly had a motive to want to harm her.

 

However, upon recalling her reaction earlier, Sophia didn’t think Matilda would wish her harm, as Matilda wished for

the child to be born. What upset her was that the child would be a Gwendolyn, as she seemed to want a grandchild

for the Constances. Before she left, Matilda even muttered to herself about becoming a grandmother.

From what she could see, Sophia didn’t think Matilda would actually hire someone to hurt her. However, neither did

she have another suspect in mind. She didn’t even tell Robin about her pregnancy, whereas Fabian, who knew

about it, would never wish her harm. The situation left her mind addled, as she didn’t know anybody else who might

be a suspect, nor did she ever offend any strangers. Glancing at the man on the ground who seemed to be in much

pain, Sophia surmised that they wouldn’t be getting any answers soon.

Taking a deep breath, she realized her stomach wasn’t feeling good after all the tension. It didn’t take long for a car

to pull over, from which sprung out a few men. She assumed back then that John gave Zack a call, but that didn’t

seem to be the case, as she knew none of the men.

 

As soon as the men arrived on the scene, John retracted his leg before waving dismissively. “Take him away.”

Without even putting up a fight, the man was carried away into the car. Meanwhile, John held Sophia in his arms.

“You must be frightened.”

Sophia clutched onto the hem of his shirt while humming in response. “I want to go home.”
