Chapter 0034 Carolines POV : I was in disbelief at the cruelty of Sophias words . I was always willing to give Sophia the benefit of the doubt , but I now knew that she was nothing but a nasty , hurtful woman . I didnt understand how William or anyone for that matter could fall in love with a woman like that . You ruined my family , and now you own William , I whispered , trapped in a toxic mix between despair and anger . Did you really need to destroy my garden ? Are you really that spiteful ? Sophia turned her head with a disgusted scoff . It smelled disgusting , she replied , rocking her baby back and forth in stilted jerks . It smelled like a dead animal . She shot me a devious look . But Im sure you know what I mean , right ? My jaw dropped in disbelief and I could only sputter out a tragic response . What ? You knew my puppy was there … Oh my god , you defiled his grave on purpose ! You defiled its grave just to spite me ! Sophia simply rolled her eyes in annoyance . Of course I did , idiot , she scowled , her lip raised in a sneer . How dare you let a dead mutt bother my family ? What else was I supposed to do other than get rid of him ? You- oh . She was interrupted when little George began to stir from all the commotion . He opened his beautiful blue eyes , letting out a noise of discomfort at the noisy fight between Sophia and I. His mother gave me a scathing look . Look what youve done , she scolded . You frightened George , and now hes awake . She softly crooned to George , giving him a pacifier in hopes of getting him to calm down . I felt my heart drop at the sight of taking care of her bothered infant . Despite her callous nature , she seemed to be a good mother . Pain flickered in my soul , knowing that I would never be able to comfort my own baby . My poor baby would never grow up to know his mother or feel his mothers love . Tears were brimming in my eyes , but I messily wiped them away . I couldnt let myself be seen like I was weak in front of Sophia ; a woman with cruel intentions . It was best that I leave and find comfort elsewhere . I couldnt deal with Sophias harassment anymore . Im going to leave , I said , swiftly heading towards the door . Ill talk to William tomorrow . Sophia laughed bitterly at me from the sofa . Are you returning to your deadbeat father ? I stopped dead in my tracks at her pointed taunt , turning on my heel to glare at her . What did you just say about my father ? You heard me , she snapped , ignoring George as he grew more discontent . Hes an incompetent , spineless , pathetic man . I cant believe youre actually trying to prove him 1/2 +25 BONUS 2 ག་ ང་ ཤི་ Chapter 0034 innocent . How dare you ? Take that back , I snarled , my nails digging into my palms . He is none of those things . Its true, she jeered with a laugh . Youre an idiot if you actually think hes a respectable man . Hes a monster ! I felt my blood start to boil . Dont you dare talk about my father that way ! And you know what ? Sophia said , a smirk crossing her face . Youre just as pathetic as he is ! She suddenly stood up from her chair , creeping closer and closer as she relentlessly insulted me . Her eyes held only malice and devious intent . She was obviously planning something , but I couldnt figure out her scheme . The sudden distant noise of tires on pavement signaled a car rolling into the driveway . Williams back ! I felt a light elation in my soul at the fact that I could finally get Sophia to stop tormenting me . When I chanced a look back at Sophia , I realized she was still getting closer , a hateful look in her eye . Unease filled me just seeing her get ever closer , and so I steadily backed away , putting my hand between us . Get away from me ! I ordered , hoping she would leave me alone . Dont come any closer ! The sound of keys jingling rang out just outside the door , Sophia cried out and fell backwards , landing on her side with George still tucked in her arms . She let out a terrified scream , shocking me to my core . Little George was alarmingly jostled as he landed with Sophia . Although he remained unharmed , the movement and Sophias scream was enough to get him to start wailing . He rustled and kicked in his swaddle , crying out for comfort , but his mother kept yelping as though she were in pain . I was dumbfounded at the display , but just as it clicked in my head what was happening , the door opened and William walked in . Sophia looked up at William with crocodile tears , reaching out for him helplessly . William , help me ! she cried . William dropped his suitcase in shock , his enraged glare falling on me . Caroline ! he shouted , furious . What did you do ? What are you doing in my house ?
