Chapter 612 (+68%)

For Dan to call now, when Sofia was already upset with Richard, naturally put her in a bad mood. She chuckled coldly, “What do you want? Calling to congratulate me?”

But from his tone, it didn’t seem like he was congratulating her. She emphasized the word “congratulate,” and the atmosphere over the phone was thick with danger.

Dan gritted his teeth and asked, “Did you really marry Richard?”

It was just a test earlier, but his use of “really” showed he knew. Sofia replied, “So you knew it?”

“Did you guys really get the marriage certificate?” Dan pressed.

“Do we need to put on an act for this? With someone like me and Richard, with our status, do you think it’s necessary?” That sharp response shut him down immediately.

“Sofia!” He spat out her name coldly, with a harsh edge.

Sofia’s tone turned cold too: “Why should I tolerate your attitude? Who I marry is none of your business.”

Word by word, Sofia’s tone was filled with indifference. Once, she was full of passion for this man. Now, she was just as cold. It was as if the fiery feelings she had for Dan were just an illusion. She was too cold, like she wouldn’t fall for anyone.

On the other end of the call, Dan felt a sharp pain in his chest from anger and spoke through gritted teeth, “Divorce him.”

Sofia let out a cold laugh, filled with mockery.

Dan said, “How could you end up marrying him after fighting like that? Sofia, tell me, are you out of your mind? If you weren’t, how could you do something so thoughtless?”

The more he spoke, the louder his voice got, as if he wanted to tear Sofia apart.

Sofia smiled, “Yeah, I’m thoughtless, so what? Is that a crime?”

Dan began, “You…”

“Zip it. Yeah, I’m impulsive, but that’s none of your business now. Who do you think you’re lecturing?” she sneered.

There was just dead silence.

“Who are you to lecture me? Check your own status, do you even have the right to do that?”

Dan was speechless.

Sofia added, “And by the way, Richard is my husband now, so you better be polite to him in Fiorenza, or I’ll come after you.”

Dan took a deep breath and said, “What did you say? For Richard?” He didn’t finish his sentence because he couldn’t believe what he just heard.

Sofia would do that for Richard? No, it couldn’t be true. After everything she said before, it just didn’t make sense.

Sofia chuckled, “Give you a tough time for Richard? Of course, if you make trouble for him. Mr. Murry, let me remind you, I’m someone who clearly knows who’s close to me and who’s not. You better not test my limits.”

The phrase “Mr. Murry” and “clear distinctions” kept ringing in Dan’s head. So, had he become Mr. Murry in her mind? Not the Dan he used to be?

Sofia sneered, “What? Are you seriously pretending to have lost your memory?”

“What’s all that talk about amnesia earlier—just pretending, right? Otherwise, why would this guy be acting like this now?” Sofia suspected Dan was faking it. If so, it was really terrible, like those who trick people out of money or affection. He fooled her for five years.

Sofia tried to hold back, but couldn’t any longer. She snapped at Dan, who was equally angry on the other end of the call, “You bitch.”

Dan was confused, “What?” Was that an insult? Is that really something you say to a guy? Dan’s mind briefly went blank.

Sofia was beyond furious now. In Dan’s daze, she exploded and shouted, “You’re a total bitch, pretending to be innocent. Damn it, what bad karma did I have in my past life to run into someone like you, who’s just playing with my feelings?”

As far as Sofia was concerned, Dan claiming he had amnesia and couldn’t remember her was all a show. Only a jerk would pretend, and only a bitch would play with emotions.

Now, with him telling her to divorce Richard, Sofia was even more certain that her suspicions were correct. It was all an act. On the other end of the line, Dan’s face turned pale instantly from Sofia’s insults.
