Chapter 572
It was late at night when Sofia finally found Dan at a nightclub. As soon as she stepped into the private room, she saw everyone indulging in drinks and fun. Dan was flanked by two women. Sofia thought they had short legs. One of the girls, who only had a face worth looking at, offered Dan a drink. He downed it immediately, his eyes hazy with intoxication.
Sofia narrowed her eyes, remembering Richard’s fierce expression as he’d wanted to hit her. She thought, ‘And now this jerk, who framed me, was having the time of his life here?’ Fury rose in Sofia’s chest. She marched forward and flipped the low table in front of Dan. The table was loaded with drinks, fruits, and snacks.
Everything happened so quickly. With a loud crash, the people on the couch barely had time to avoid being splashed with drinks and food. The room, once filled with noise, suddenly became silent, with only the music playing. Everyone’s gaze turned to Sofia.
After a moment, someone realized what was happening and shouted, “Hey, who’s this mad person causing trouble?” The man yelled, but Sofia didn’t even look at him. Filled with fierce anger, she lifted her foot and aimed a kick at Dan.
The man who yelled at Sofia made another exclamation as he saw the scene unfold, and everyone’s eyes in the room were intently focused. Dan was quite skilled, but with a woman on each side, he couldn’t dodge in time. Sofia’s kick landed squarely on his stomach.
Dan groaned. The two women with him realized what was happening and hurriedly ran away. But in a blink, Sofia jumped over the table and charged directly at Dan. At that moment, Sofia was certain that Dan had approached her with a purpose back then. She thought, ‘If he was going to deceive, he should’ve just aimed for money. But playing with my emotions… Damn!’
The more Sofia thought about it, the angrier she became, and she landed several punches on Dan before he could react. Everyone around was too shocked to respond. By the time they thought to step in, Dan had already caught Sofia’s next punch.
In the next moment, Sofia swung her other fist even harder. It struck the other side of Dan’s face. Sofia was livid, practically going all out against Dan. Dan’s face was knocked to the side, and when he turned back to look at Sofia, there was anger in his eyes too.
“Damn it, get that woman for me,” a man’s voice erupted from the crowd. This wasn’t just causing trouble; it was like stirring up a hornet’s nest. Dan attended the event tonight at someone’s invitation; it was a social obligation. Seeing the chaos, the host almost had a stroke on the spot.
Sofia acted like she didn’t hear anything, hitting Dan while shouting, “Do you dare to steal anything? If you’re going to steal, do it openly. Why frame me? You jerk, can’t even admit it, can you?”
Being honest was Sofia’s principle, and Dan crossing that line was unforgivable to her. Whether he was once her beloved or not, if love’s gone, beat them senseless.
“Tell me, where’s the file? Are you going to talk or not?” Sofia asked. The people nearby were speechless upon hearing her words and seeing what she was doing. Sofia wasn’t giving Dan a chance to speak. Dan wouldn’t have an opportunity to answer her.
Sofia was steaming. Thinking about how frantic Richard was today, it was like he wanted to give her a lesson. That just showed how important that document was. “Where’s the document? Not gonna talk? Then I’ll just hit you until you do,” Sofia said.
Everyone was at a loss for words. There was no way to speak with all the beating happening. A dozen bodyguards surged toward her, the leader already reaching out towards Sofia. But in the next moment, Dan grabbed her hands and flipped her over, pinning her on the sofa. “That’s enough.”
