Dark Lord Seduction System: Taming Wives, Daughters, Aunts, and CEOs

Chapter 337: Parachute

Madison’s face went white with fury. "What do you mean? Why did you not tell your dad or report Jack"

"When I tried to pull away, when I said I didn’t want to be with him anymore or threatened to report him for what he did if he does not leave me alone, Jack would remind me what it would mean for my father’s business. How disappointed my family would be. How I’d be ruining everything they’d worked for. I had to convince Cecilia to seal her lips" Sofia was hyperventilating now, the words coming out in gasps between sobs.

Lincoln Heights was broken.

I couldn’t sit still anymore. I moved around the table and pulled Sofia into my arms, letting her cry against my chest while I stroked her hair. The rage building inside me was carefully controlled, but it was there - a cold, calculating anger at every adult who had failed this girl.

"When the whole thing with Lea happened," Sofia said, her voice muffled against my shirt, "when word got back to both families that I’d defended you publicly, that I’d slapped her... they were furious."

"Who was furious?" I asked quietly, though I already knew.

"My father. Jack’s parents. Everyone." Sofia pulled back to look at me, her face streaked with tears and mascara. "My father called me into his office that night. He was so angry, Peter. I’ve never seen him like that."

She started crying harder, and I held her tighter, feeling Madison’s hand on my shoulder in support.

"He said..." Sofia’s voice broke completely. "He said I was ungrateful. That after everything he’d done for me, everything he’d provided, everything he’d built for our family, I couldn’t even do this one simple thing for him."

The restaurant around us had gone quiet, other diners probably sensing the intensity of our conversation, but I didn’t give a fuck about any of them.
