Memories Of The Night

At that moment, Sophie"s heart is filled with malevolence.

Not only does she want to slap Katrina to vent her anger out, but she also wants to scratch her pretty face and see how she could seduce Marcellus afterward.

This time, Katrina is on guard.

Seeing Sophie waving her nails directly towards her, Katrina is filled with fierce spite. She was already annoyed for being slapped for no reason. Now, Sophie"s continuing aggression makes her rage.

Just because Carl adopted and raised her, doesn"t mean that she"s a servant in the Anderson house who can be bullied at will.

Katrina has endured tolerating Sophie for all these years. Before, no matter how much she suffered, she always bore the pain herself. This time, she won"t put up with it any longer.

She grabs hold of Sophie"s wrist like a trapped rabbit, keeping her hand out of reach. Her originally pure and innocuous face now looks unspeakably serious.

Clutching Sophie"s wrist, Katrina fixes the other woman with a severe stare. "Sophie, if you pick a fight with me, I won"t lose to you. I will disregard that slap just now for Uncle Anderson"s sake. But if you dare attack me again, I will not relent, so don"t challenge me!"

To repay her uncle"s kindness, Katrina never fought back. But it doesn"t mean that she"s afraid of Sophie or can be bullied into giving in to her wishes.

If Sophie lays another finger on her, she will retaliate at once.

Besides, Katrina is a police officer who was trained in various combat. She may not be able to subdue a tall and strong man on her own, but she is absolutely confident in winning against a delicate, young lady like Sophie.

Sophie wants to scratch Katrina"s face, but she can"t reach it because of Katrina"s tight grasp on her wrist. She tries to draw her hand back, but she can"t pull away either.

Katrina has always been a yes man and has never fought back in the face of all her sarcastic comments.

For the first time today, Sophie witnesses a powerful Katrina.

Is this the same Katrina she knows?

Katrina"s defiance makes Sophie feel strange.

This ungrateful woman!

Is she fighting back now that she"s working and earning her own money? Is she attacking her because she no longer needs her family"s support?

But in terms of force, Sophie is powerless against her. She could do nothing but flash her long fake eyelashes indignantly at her. "Katrina, take your filthy hands off me!" she exclaims.

Although Katrina does it roughly, she releases her wrist as Sophie hoped.

All Katrina wants is to protect herself, not hurt Sophie. If Sophie stops attacking her, she doesn"t need to keep grabbing her arm.

Now that Sophie has crossed her path, Katrina wants to be clear with her.

Katrina looks at Sophie and says calmly, "Sophie, from today on, and I will no longer avoid Marcellus. I hope you will stop meddling in my affairs."

After returning from Hadley, Katrina"s way of thinking has changed dramatically.

Marcellus is an excellent man. She recognizes all the good things that he has done for her over the years. Although she evaded him for four years, he never strayed from his original goal.

Perhaps after losing her freedom not long ago, Katrina realizes that life is short. No one knows what will happen in the next second.

Katrina doesn"t want to miss her chance with an excellent and devoted man like Marcellus.

Her body feels tainted, and the knowledge of knowing she doesn"t deserve Marcellus is like a thorn in her heart. But she"s not going to avoid him again as Sophie wants her to.

If they really move on from friends.h.i.+p to love, and their relations.h.i.+p reaches a stable stage, she will open her heart to him. If Marcellus is willing to accept her painful and dark past, they can be together.

If he doesn"t, then even if they part ways amicably, Katrina won"t have a single regret in her life.

After all, she did her best.

While Sophie likes Marcellus, Marcellus isn"t her boyfriend. There is no need for Katrina to apologize to Sophie for wanting to be with Marcellus. Sophie has no right to confront her like a jealous girlfriend and hurl abuse at her.

Katrina is undoubtedly declaring war on Sophie to compete for Marcellus"s affections fairly.

At that moment, Sophie"s elaborately made-up face becomes more ferocious.

Katrina has been avoiding Marcellus for four years, but she has yet to turn him off.

Sophie knows all too well that if Katrina stops avoiding Marcellus, she doesn"t even need to do anything. Just flas.h.i.+ng him a smile will be enough to capture his heart.

She doesn"t know what makes Katrina so better than her, but for some reason, Marcellus is utterly dedicated to her.

Sophie is unable to reconcile the fact that the man she has loved for so many years is stolen away by a woman of such humble background.

Why do all the men in her life favor Katrina over her?

Since Katrina came to the house, her father has always stood by Katrina. Later, the man she loves also gets drawn by Katrina.

Katrina has stolen the two most important men in her life. How can Sophie accept that?

Her hatred for Katrina grows fiercer with each pa.s.sing day.

Sophie looks at Katrina with fire in her eyes. She brushes her teeth and says, "Katrina, aren"t you afraid that I will tell Marcellus that you slept with an old man four years ago?"

Four years ago, Katrina was the one who begged her to keep her mouth shut. She was kind enough to hide it for her. If Marcellus finds out that she"s a loose woman who lost her innocence four years ago, will he still like her?

Katrina is unimpressed by Sophie"s threat.

She has a faint smile on her face as she speaks, "Sophie, what proof do you have that I slept with a man? Do you think Marcellus will believe you?"

Calm determination fills Katrina as she stares Sophie down without a hint of fear.

"He knows that you"ve been badgering him all these years and that you don"t like me. If you tell him that, he will think that you are deliberately slandering me and that you"re a wayward and obstinate woman who does ugly things in secret. He will only hate you more."
