Marry My Ex's Sworn Enemy

Chapter 84: That's My Sister-in-Law, Right?

The man in sunglasses emerged, witnessed the scene, and folded his arms, clearly unwilling to intervene. Mr.

Sterling, startled, pulled harder on Sophia.

Through the open door, Sophia saw a smoky, trashed room. A short, stout man knelt on the floor, his clothes

dirty, torn, and stained with blood he was clearly being beaten.

Sophia looked at the men seated around the table, their faces obscured by smoke, slaughing, stalking,

sdrinking. A semblance of harmony, yet an underlying menace permeated the

air.

The man directly opposite the entrance leaned back, tapping his cigarette butt with his index finger. Someone

leaned in to speak to him; he smirked slightly, shaking his head. "Honey..." Sophia whispered, stunned.

At the sound of her voice, the man looked up. His brow furrowed when he saw her. He stood and walked out.

Sean reached the doorway to see Sophia being dragged by Mr. Sterling. In two strides, he was beside her, pulling

her into his arms and simultaneously kicking Mr. Sterling to the ground. Mr. Sterling rolled twice, his anger

flaring. He pointed at Sean, about to yell, when the man int sunglasses grabbed his outstretched finger and

snapped it.

"Aaah!" Mr. Sterling screamed in agony.

The others froze, then scrambled back in fear.

"Did he touch you?" Sean whispered to Sophia, his voice low and dangerous Sophia was still reeling from the

shock, so she simply nodded.

Sean pulled her closer, then glanced at the man in sunglasses. The man immediately understood and proceeded

to beat Mr. Sterling mercilessly. Sophia flinched. Sean turned her away from the scene.

"I... I'm okay. Stop hitting him, stop it!" she pleaded."Don't kill him!"

Sean kissed Sophia's forehead, trying to reassure her, and gestured for the man in sunglasses to

stop.

Once the man stopped, he uttered a single word, "Scram!" and the men scattered, fleeing the scene. in a

panicked retreat.

Leaning against Sean, Sophia breathed a sigh of relief, then noticed the strong smell of cigarettes. and alcohol

A man with graying hair approached, addressing Sophia Sean held the back of Sophia's head, preventing her

from turning to face them. Yeah, let's just leave it at that." "Why not invite your sister-in-law in for a drink?"

"She doesn't like this kind of place. Let's just go."

"Right, we're a bunch of smelly old guys. We don't want to offend your sister-in-law."

"Let's arrange it then."

"Excellent, excellent."

Sean's voice was cold and commanding as he spoke to the man. Once in the car, he pulled her into his arms and

kissed her - a passionate, tender kiss. "Never go

Sophia hugged Sean's neck and nodded.

"Oh."

Sean glanced at the cut on her forehead and chuckled softly."Lettaste what it was like." Sophia blushed and

leaned in, instantly pulled close by his deep kiss.

To clear the alcohol from his system, Sean pulled Sophia out of the car a short distance from their villa complex.

They walked hhand in hand, the quiet street nearly deserted. "Honey." "Yes?"

"I hope we stay like this forever, never change."

Sean squeezed her hand. "We will change."

"Why?" Sophia was disappointed.

Sean smiled. I'll only love you more and more."

Sophia smiled, leaning against his arm, occasionally glancing up at him. The moon shone bright above, but Sean

was even more captivating beneath it.

Sean nodded. "I know. | look in the mirror every day. But I'm still happy to hear you say it. It means | have good

Sophia laughed until she had no strength left, refusing to walk, demanding a piggyback ride. Sean lifted her onto

his back and walked slowly, steadily.

Sophia smiled. "I gave saway. Not many left.

She looked at the basket of oranges; there must have been twenty or more pounds. "Honey, let's buy them," she

asked Sean.

Sean raised an eyebrow. "You wantto carry them home?"

‘Sophia nodded. "It's not heavy."

Sophia nodded to the elderly woman, then urged Sean forward.

Sean looked back at the elderly woman. I've never seen them before."

"Yeah, it seems like they've only recently started selling fruit here."

Across the street, Sophia looked back to see the elderly woman pushing her wheelchair-bound son away, their

finally unleash his passion.

In the middle of the night, Sophia's phone rang. Sean got up, picked it up from the table, and

handed it to her.

Sophia squinted at the screen. It was Tree.

She sensed something was wrong and sat up immediately.
