Chapter 32 Jasonâs eyes widened, and his heart involuntarily clenched as he instinctively reached for the ring.
He didnât know why he was acting like this. Normally, he wouldnât fish something out of the toilet. But right now, an inexplicable panic took hold of him, and his limbs reacted before his brain could process what was happening.
A thought flashed through his mind for a split second. âLosing the wedding ring means giving up on the marriage.â He would not allow Sophia to give up on their marriage, and the ring could never be lost.
However, the flush of the toilet roared, abruptly stopping Jasonâs action. After a momentâs shock, he straightened up furiously and grasped Sophiaâs neck, and his eyes blazed with intense rage. âWho told you to flush! Sophia, how dare you?â
Sophia looked up into his eyes, a mocking smile forming on her pale lips, desperate and terrifying. Right now, she felt nothing but hate for him. âItâs just an unsuitable ring for an unsuitable marriage. Whatâs the use of keeping it anyway? If itâs flushed away, then let it be. Itâs not worth holding on to.
Jasonâs grasp around her neck tightened, veins evident on his forehead. His furious eyes locked down on her. âIâm not suitable for you, huh? Fine, tell me who is suitable then. Oliver?â
Sophia sneered inwardly, bowed her head, and refused to answer him.
Jasonâs eyes flashed with hatred as he suddenly grabbed her hair, pulling her head back and forcing her to look him in the eye.
âThinking youâll just find a new guy and start fresh? Keep dreaming. Even if I broke up with you. Oliver wouldnât be your next option. Remember, you were the one who chased after me shamelessly. And even if you find someone better, you wonât get away from me.
Sophia, looking at his handsome face twisted with anger, couldnât help but sneer. âYouâre so concerned about me, huh? Jason, you couldnât have fallen in love with me, could you!â
âFall in love with her? Ridiculous. How could I ever love such a scheming woman like her? Jason thought. He tossed Sophia onto the ground and said, eager to deny her, âYouâre nothing but a cheap outlet for release. To think that I could fall in love with you? Thatâs wishful thinking.
With that, he strode out of the washroom.
Sophia fell hard to the floor, hitting the old injury in her chest. A cutting pain spread out, racing through her limbs. She gasped for breath, trying to cope with the heartâwrenching waves of pain. Her fingers dug into the floor, the sharp tips piercing her skin, but the physical pain was nothing compared to the agony in her heart Another severe wave of pain rose, and a metallic taste filled her throat. She violently turned to spit out the blood, but Jason returned carrying the glass of milk she had barely touched. It seems he still wants to force the birth control on me. Thatâs right. Iâm just his tool for satisfaction. Why would a mere plaything like me have any right to carry his child?â
she thought Jason grabbed her hair and poured the milk from the cup into her mouth.
Sophia thought about resisting, but then she realized she needed to swallow the blood in her mouth back down. After a few struggles, she gradually gave in, swallowing the milk along with the blood stuck in her throat. It was a taste she never wanted to experience again. It was too painful. She didnât have the courage to endure it a second time.
âCough, coughâ After a bout of violent cou ghing, she looked at Jason ashenâfaced. âIt seems like youâve gone to a lot of trouble dosing me with birth control for two years.
A flicker of surprise crossed Jasonâs eyes, and a wave of panic set in. âHow did she find out? he wondered.
