Chapter 814 Can’t Wait to Kill Her Off

Zane couldn’t help but feel that Sonia was hoping to have turned him into a cripple from that stomp she gave him.

“Seriously?” The corners of his mouth made a small twitch. “Were you trying to immobilize me?! No wonder you

went so heavy with your attack! I thought you had underestimated your strength by accident, but it turns out you

did it on purpose!” he exclaimed as he bewilderedly pointed at her.

 

Sonia pouted and let out a huff. “It was your fault for trying to come between Toby and me. That was disrespectful,

okay?”

Despite not looking like it, Sonia was, in fact, a little angry when she had heard Zane say those words.

He was trying to make Toby seem like the bad guy by accusing him of being an emotionally volatile and violent man.

 

As Toby’s girlfriend, Sonia would naturally get defensive when Zane, someone whom Toby considered his friend,

started slandering Toby.

Also, what kind of woman did Zane think she was, for him to suggest that she break up with Toby to get together

with him?

Did he think of her as the kind of wanton woman who would get together with anyone whenever she wanted?

 

Who wouldn’t be mad after listening to such insulting words?! she thought.

 

Her stomp on his foot was a result of her accidentally losing her temper. It was his little punishment for saying

anything he wanted without a care.

As Zane looked at the icy expression on Sonia’s face, he quickly realized that he had said things that he shouldn’t

have. “I… I was just kidding,” he muttered while rubbing his nose in guilt.

“You can’t joke about things like this.” Sonia glared at him.

Feeling remorseful, Zane lowered his head and took a seat beside Sonia. “I got it. I won’t do it again. I really don’t

want to end up becoming a cripple,” he said as he pointed at his leg.

Even though the surface of his leather shoe was shining brightly, Sonia could see the dusty shape of a shoe print on

it. There was also a wrinkled spot in the otherwise smooth surface as the left and right shoes didn’t even look like

they were a pair then.

Sonia finally burst out laughing when she couldn’t hold it in after seeing how comical the shoes looked. “It is good

that you know. Not everything can be made into a joke.”

 

“Alright, alright. I won’t do it anymore,” Zane sighed as he waved her off. He then quickly cast his eyes down to hide

the dejected look on his face. Even though he was only fooling around with her earlier, he did put his true feelings

into the words that he seemed to have mindlessly sputtered.

He really did intend to gauge how deep Sonia’s feelings for Toby were, which was why he mentioned to her about

Toby’s bad temper and how Toby might even hurt women when he became violent. Zane wanted to see whether

she would start having doubts about the man she had chosen after hearing his words.

If she had shown the slightest bit of hesitation, or if she started to wonder whether Toby really would get physical

with a woman, that would mean that her love for Toby hadn’t returned to what it was during those 6 years. In that

case, their relationship this time around would probably break off before long.

And that, of course, would be his cue to take his chance.

Zane knew how despicable it was for him to tarnish Toby’s name in order to raise himself, but humans were selfish

beings after all. It wasn’t as though he had done anything other than smear some dirt over Toby’s name. Zane was

only doing what he could when he had the opportunity to. He didn’t think that there was anything wrong with him

fighting for the woman he liked.

Furthermore, if her love for Toby didn’t run as deep as Zabe thought and he still stood a chance to win her heart, he

might just have to get involved and do something to make them split up quickly. At least that way, they wouldn’t

have to drag on a fruitless relationship that would eventually end with both parties being deeply wounded.

On the contrary, Zane would completely back off on his own accord if they were already head over heels for one

another.

Despite his hopes, he had proved that Sonia had deep feelings for Toby. Not only did she trust him with all her heart,

she also defended him when Zane had talked about him behind his back. She was the kind of lover and protector

Zane was envious of Toby for having.

Maybe it really is time to let her go, he thought as a bitter smile appeared on his face.

Even though he had told Toby that he was going to give up on Sonia, a small part of him couldn’t do it. His

unwillingness only worsened when he saw her again today, which was why he momentarily set aside what he had

promised Toby before, and went ahead to take a shot at Sonia again.

However, what Zane had received in return for his perseverance was, yet again, another rejection. It seemed like

fate was not going to give him what he wanted. Toby you lucky dog, he sighed.

For the same woman whom Toby hurt before to somehow end up falling for him again, Toby must have had some

kind of otherworldly good luck that normal people did not possess.

Sonia didn’t know what Zane was thinking about, after seeing how sincere he was when he apologized, her anger

began to subside.

It didn’t take long after she had calmed down that she was overtaken by feelings of guilt.

It was her fault for hurting him even after he had put his all into compiling the list of compatible donors she needed.

She hadn’t even repaid him yet!

As she thought about that, she gave Zane an embarrassed look and apologized, “I’m sorry about earlier.”

“Hmm?” Zane took a second to catch what she was apologizing for, and he quickly waved her off with a smile.

“Don’t worry about it! It was my fault for saying something I shouldn’t have. It is understandable why you reacted

the way you did. You don’t have to apologize.”

Sonia tucked her hair behind her ear as she listened to Zane’s words. “Regardless of that, I did step on your foot.

Are you hurt? If you are—”

“Nope,” he interrupted with the shake of his head before she could continue saying the words he knew she was

about to say. “It will probably bruise a little, but it won’t affect my gait. I’ll be okay in a few days, so stop feeling

guilty over nothing!”

“But—” Sonia, with a frown on her face, was about to say something again when Zane pointed at the crowd that

was gradually spilling into the courtroom. “We’ll talk later. It is about to begin,” he said in a hushed voice.

Sonia turned to look at the entrance and she immediately swallowed her words down her throat when she saw the

related personnel entering the room. Her own expression soon became stern.

It didn’t take long after the court hearing began for Jessica to be escorted by a bailiff into the room.

She was dressed in a yellow prison uniform from neck to toe. Sonia also noticed how both Jessica’s hands and legs

had been bound by cuffs.

Her hair that had been cut short partially covered her downcast head, and even though her expression didn’t show

much of how she was feeling, anyone could see how disheartened she was from her body language.

Her wrists that peeked from her sleeves were so scrawny that it was obvious how much weight she had lost during

her stay in the detention cell—something she had not been coping well with. The uniform she had on looked

extremely baggy on her torso.

For their father’s sake, Sonia would probably have felt compassion for the pitiful Jessica in front of her if she was

her biological sister, or if she had never poisoned their father.

However, despite how pathetic Jessica looked, she was not worthy of Sonia’s pity. She was undoubtedly the sinner

who had caused their father’s death.

And so, Sonia only took a short glance at her before turning away.

Unbeknownst to Sonia, the moment she had looked away, Jessica suddenly lifted her head and stared directly at

Sonia. The hatred in her eyes was so raw that even her face seemed twisted as she glared at her sister.

She probably would have charged at Sonia and ripped her throat out with her bare hands, if not for the bailiff

beside her and the locked cuffs on her limbs.

The female bailiff escorting Jessica didn’t miss her gaze at Sonia. Her eyebrows crinkled and she coldly barked a

command. “Stop looking around and keep walking!”

The bailiff’s blaring voice seemed to have reminded Jessica that they were in court, as she quickly shrank in fear

and lowered her head. She was back to being the cowering, timid Jessica who entered the courtroom a moment

ago.

“Jessica was glaring at you,” Zane suddenly whispered to Sonia as his gaze rested on Jessica, who was standing

behind the defendant’s table.

“I know,” Sonia replied in an equally hushed voice, but her eyes were looking ahead. “I can feel it. I bet she can’t

wait to kill me off.”

Zane let out a soft ‘tsk’ at that. “What an interesting woman. She was the one who came for your neck, but how is

she the one looking daggers at you like you owed her something after she lost? Did she think you would just take it

lying down?”

The corner of Sonia’s red lips curled into a snarl. “That is the kind of person she is. Nothing weird about that.”

“To be honest, there is something that I really don’t understand,” Zane suddenly exclaimed, in which Sonia turned

to look at him and ask, “What don’t you understand?”
