Chapter 89: The video...
Sophia hesitated as the phone was handed to her, her fingers trembling slightly before she finally took it.
Her gaze flickered between the screen and the person who had given it to her, uncertainty clouding her expression.
As soon as her eyes landed on the paused video displaying Arthur’s face, a storm of emotions surged within her. With a deep breath, she pressed play, bracing herself for whatever revelation awaited her.
Seconds stretched into eternity as she watched, her heart pounding with every passing frame.
The more she saw, the heavier the weight in her chest became, sinking deeper and deeper like an anchor dragging her down.
Regret washed over her in waves—regret for ever crossing paths with a man like him, regret for the choices she had made, regret for the irreversible consequences that had now come full circle.
If only she could turn back time, rewrite history, undo every mistake she had ever made.
But she couldn’t. The past was set in stone, and all she could do now was try to fix the wreckage left in its wake.
Determined, she tightened her grip on the phone, a plan forming in her mind.
If there was even the slightest chance to set things right, she had to take it.
Just as she was about to scroll through the call log, searching for the one number that could change everything, a sharp gasp escaped her lips.
