Forced Into Marriage: My Husband’s Too Mean novel Chapter 327

Sophie's frank gaze fell on Liam first, then on Lindsey. She constantly glanced at the two of them.

Liam returned to his senses and took a few steps forward. He grabbed Sophie's hands to check her temperature. "Why did you come out wearing so little?"

Although his words were reproachful, he was gentle as he said it.

After saying that, Liam swept Sophie into his arms and said, "Did you wake up and couldn’t find me? Let's go back."

Unexpectedly, Sophie pushed him away in the next second.

Her lips were cold. She first looked at Lindsey, then her gaze landed on Liam as she said word by word, "This is your 'friend'?"

Liam's face was already glum, but he did not want to lash out at Sophie. He tried to hug her again and said, "Let's go back and talk."

Sophie once again pushed Liam away. "Tell me, what is this all about?"

The woman he hid here was actually Lindsey!

Sophie felt like her world was turned upside down. She had no idea what was going on, but there was one thing she was sure of, that Liam was hiding something very important from her.

She did not want to come over for fear of seeing something she could not accept, but in the end, reason won over the fear in her heart.

If that day really came, it did not matter if she found out a little later or earlier.

To her surprise, Sophie did not see any unseemly scene before her when she pushed open the door, nor was it a stranger she did not know. It was Lindsey Juhl.

When Liam heard her question, his eyes dimmed. "The friend I'm talking about is Ms. Juhl. Her family asked me to take care of her for a while."

"You're lying!" Sophie roared as her gaze fell back on Lindsey. "If that's really the case, why didn't you tell me in the first place? You also said that Ms. Juhl might not have good intentions and you didn't even want us to get along at the beginning. You even said that she’s mentally ill!"

The more Sophie spoke, the clearer her thoughts. All the abnormalities she ignored and the puzzled feeling seemed to float to the surface in an instant. They gradually converged in her mind into a conjecture that made Sophie despondent.

"I'll just send her away, okay? Sophie, look at me. Look at me!" Liam turned Sophie's face to him and he gradually lowered his voice. "Let's go back and talk about it."

Lindsey looked at the scene in front of her that looked like it came out of a soap opera. She suddenly felt sympathetic for Sophie. She saw Sophie looking at her with a desperate and sad gaze, which gave Lindsey a momentary feeling. ‘Sophie found out. She knew what Liam wanted to do.’

Sophie repeatedly shrugged off Liam's hand, but Liam repeatedly held her tightly in his arms. In the end, he picked her up and tried to appease her while he whispered, "I'll give you an explanation. Don't think nonsense. It's really not what you think, I promise."

As for what Sophie was thinking, since Lindsey could see it, Liam would only be more aware of it.

The door was slammed shut from the outside. Lindsey did not say a word throughout the whole ordeal and watched as Sophie hit the man that was carrying her. In the end, her tears streamed down her cheeks and Lindsey even felt sorry for her.

In the beginning, every girl would probably feel that the person they loved was the best.

Liam put Sophie on the bed and carefully wiped away her tears, but it was useless. Once he wiped it away, more tears rolled down almost immediately after.

His voice was very soft when he said this, but Sophie heard it clearly.

All of her words were choked up inside her throat, and eventually, an out-of-tune cry cracked from her lips.

How could she possibly blame him? What right did she have to be standing on moral high ground, accusing him of being reckless and disregarding others’ lives, accusing him of being so cold-blooded?

He only did this so that she could live!

Sophie hugged Liam back tightly and her tears made Liam’s shirt damp. Her warm tears soaked through his shirt through his skin and seeped into his flesh and bones.

"I’m already satisfied with what I have." Sophie sniffled and finally found her voice. "Liam, I'm really content. I love you and you love me. Whether I continue to live won’t change this fact.

"If you trade Lindsey and her unborn child’s lives for mine, even if the operation is successful, I’ll never be happy for the rest of my life. Liam, let's call it quits, okay?"

"How do I stop?" Liam's voice was gentle as he asked Sophie back. He pulled away from her slightly. His eyes were red-rimmed and the bottom of his eyes had a stubbornness.

"How can I stop? Tell me! Do I have to watch you die in front of me and do nothing? Why do you have to torture me like this, Sophie? You might as well just kill me!"

Sophie froze and looked at Liam's red eyes. Tears gradually welled up in them. A teardrop fell from his eyes and landed on the back of Sophie's hand.

It was like smelting iron that burned the softest spot in her heart.
