S31 44. Punishment
Finnic took a deep breath. His eye bags thickened. “I know I was wrong, but I
really regret it. Can't you give me a second chance? We can build everything
from scratch.”
“Building a safety net for your nearly destroyed company, you mean?” Sophia
laughed lightly. Her head shook. “Sorry, Finnic. I don't like it. when someone
takes advantage of me. You intend to cancel our divorce for the sake of your
company, right? You want to take advantage of my family’s wealth and power?”
Finnic was taken aback for a moment. “No, I just want to make amends. All this
time, I didn’t treat you properly.”
“If you really love me, then swallow that bitter pill. I no longer have feelings for
you. Everything has turned into hatred. The hopes and future that I once wanted
to live with you have also been destroyed. The rubble is shattered and nothing
remains. There is nothing that
can be saved.”
“You can, Sophia. As long as you are willing to lower your ego a open the door to
forgiveness for me, we can save our marriage. can cancel the final trial then start
from the beginning. I'm sure
can.”
Finnic’s voice was pitiful and helpless, but Sophia was disgusted to
hear that.
“Didn't you say it yourself? I'm much better than Kara, and Frank is much better
than you. Do you think you're still worthy of being with me?”
Finnic’s expression froze. After a blink, he whispered, “You think Frank will accept
you?”

Sophia was lost for words. She shifted her jaw slightly then let out a quick sigh. “I
don't care whether he has opened his heart to me or not. What is clear is that we
are a more suitable match.”
Suddenly, Melanie laughed. She had been listening to the couple's debate from
the start. She was sure they wouldn't find the end of it if
she didn't take an action.
“You're such a mess, Sophia. You married Finnic, wanted my son, and slept with
Jeremy. But why do you still hold yourself up so high?”
Getting that information, Finnic's eyes trembled. His mouth was agape, his face
slightly pale.
“You slept with another man?”
Sophia's breath hitched. Her eyes flickered. “No. I have nothing to do with that
man. It's impossible for me to sleep with him.”
“But Mrs. Harris couldn't have made that up.” Finnic glanced at Jeremy, asking
for an explanation. Jeremy let out a faint sigh.
“It wasn't intentional. She tried to seduce Frank with drugs, but I fell into her trap.”
Finnic sighed in disbelief. The corners of his lips twitched faintly. You've slept with
my wife, but you can still relax?”
Frank hurriedly raised his hand, as if to set a boundary. “Sophia admitted that
you two were divorced. So, she’s a widow in Jeremy
mind.”
“Even though she’s a virgin, I wouldn't want to touch her,” Jeremy said,
disagreeing with his brother's defense. “It happened because I was under the
influence of drugs. My brain was working out of control. You've experienced it, of
course you know how it feels.”
“Yeah, just yesterday, I immediately ran to look for Kara. Maybe our
2/5
genes are weak against that type of drug,” Frank grumbled, not solving the
problem.
Looking up, Finnic exhaled with his hands on his waist. However, the pressure in
his chest did not decrease.
“So now, you want another man and have slept with another man.” When he
straightened his neck, Finnic’s gaze immediately locked on Sophia. “Don’t you
have any feelings for me? You don’t value our
marriage and don't consider me your husband?”
Sophia pursed her mouth tightly. Her chin wrinkled. She knew her actions were
wrong. However, she was too embarrassed to admit it.
“Answer me, Sophia. Do you hate me that much? You don’t even want to sleep
with me, but you give up your body to another man?”
Sophia swallowed hard. “Yes, I want our marriage to end immediately. I don’t
want to be tied to you anymore, Fin. You don’t deserve to be
with me.”
Finnic’s lips curved downwards. The mist in his eyes thickened. “Why didn’t you
say so from the start? If knew we would end up like this, we shouldn't have
gotten married.”
“Don’t blame me. Blame your ex-lover. She was the one who op my eyes that
marriage with you was just false happiness.”
Finnic started to nod. “Okay. If that's what you want, we'll settle everything at the
final hearing. And after that, don’t ever apologize say sorry, because I will never
accept you again.”
“Fine.” Sophia shrugged one shoulder. Her face was as stiff as possible. “That's
what I want. We're not on the same level, Fin. I should have listened to my
parents’ advice from the start.”
Finnic smiled sadly. “You're the one who's at a loss, Sophia. No man other than
me will accept a criminal like you, especially after you're in
3/5
prison later.”
Hearing those words, Sophia's arrogance faded. “What do you mean?”
Suddenly, several men in uniform came in. The one at the front showed his
badge.
“Good evening, Miss Moore. We received a report that you have committed
unpleasant and defamatory acts. Here is the arrest warrant.”
While the policeman held out a piece of paper, Sophia gaped at it. No, that's not
true.”
However, two officers had already grabbed her hands. “You're under
arrest.”
Sophia widened her eyes. His eyes trembled, waiting for an
explanation from the other.
“Frank? Finnic? What the hell? You guys called the police to arrest me?
Not getting an answer, Sophia's voice rose. “Frank? Fin?"
However, until she was dragged out, no one defended her. Even the servants
looked down with their mouths shut.
“You're not angry that I reported your wife to the police, are you?” Frank inquired
as Sophia's voice sounded further away.
Finnic snorted sadly. “Well, she deserves to be punished and she
needs to learn the lessons.”
Frank nodded. After a moment of silence, he held out his hand. “So,
we're at peace now?”

Finnic shrugged. “I'm getting my punishment. There's nothing I can do to fight it.”
“Sorry to interrupt, Sir.” Ava stepped forward. Her hands were
clenched in front of her stomach. “May I know how my mother is?”
Finnic turned to face the nurse. “Your mother’s condition is stable.
She is on her way to Garcia Hospital.”
“One of my trusted people is looking after her. He's reliable. So, you don’t need
to worry,” Frank added.
Ava'’s face suddenly turned bright. Her breath sounded light. “Thank you, Sir.
Thank you.”
“I'm sorry if my wife took advantage of your trouble,” Finnic said.
