Chapter 96
Although Sophia had guessed it, when she heard the words “beast” and “forcibly taken advantage of“, her heart still ached.
She thought, ‘What did she go through these past few days?”
“Don’t be afraid,” she said. “I’m here, I’ve always been here.”
As she comforted Luna softly, she reached out to grasp her wrist, trying to pull her up.
But as soon as her fingers touched Luna’s wrist, Luna began to tremble vigorously, revealing a painful expression.
Sophia quickly let go of her and rolled up the sleeve on her arm bit by bit with trembling hands.
When she saw the bloody mess on it, her heart twitched painfully for a moment. The pain was then replaced by intense anger.
These marks were obviously caused by being bound with a rope. Luna was relatively thin, and the bones in her wrist were clearly defined. After this torture, the bones were faintly visible, and it was a shocking sight
Sophia thought, ‘Which beast could be so cruel, torturing a woman into this state?
She had many questions in her mind, but when she saw Luna’s agonizing and desperate expression, she held back from saying the words she was about to utter.
“Let’s go,” she said. “Let me help you to the bed. Let’s be down and take our time chatting”
With that said, she avoided her wrist and lifted her partially by supporting her elbow.
After lying side by side on the bed, Sophia reached out and held Luna’s fingers, smiling as she said, “Luna, do you still remember our original intention when we used all our savings to buy this villa? We initially promised never to marry, to be best friends holding hands and accompanying each other until old age. But in the end, I broke my promise, I fell into unrequited love and married a man who didn’t love me Perhaps the heavens wanted to punish me for not keeping my word. For these four years, I’ve been swallowing the arsenic Jason gave me as if it were honey. In the end, I suffered intense pain and got severely injured. Luna, I have good news to tell you. I signed the divorce agreement today. From now on, I am free, and you shouldn’t lag behind either. Let’s continue to live freely like we used to, okay?”
Luna slowly y turned her body and curled up in Sophia’s arms. Even though she rubbed against the wounds on her body, she still clung tightly to Sophia.
“Sophia,” Luna tried to speak, her voice dry and hoarse. “Congratulations on breaking free from the devil’s claws. I’ve always felt that Jason is not worthy of you, but you were so fond of him, so I didn’t say anything. Now that hear you’ve divorced and distanced yourself from that heartless man, I’m happier than anyone. Don’t worry, I’ll do everything in my power to help you find a suitable donor.”
Sophia forced a smile.
Changing to a suitable heart was easier said than done. Her blood type was special, and the chances of success were probably one in a trillion. She didn’t dare to look forward to it. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
However, she did not want to refuse Luna’s good intentions. At the moment, she was in a desperate situation and urgently needed something to support herself.
“Alright,” she said. “I’ll wait for you to recover your spirits and find me a suitable donor Luna, can you tell me what exactly happened?” Luna’s body stiffened slightly, instinctively rejecting this topic.
Sophia did not dare to force her. She quickly changed the subject, saying, “Rest first, We’ll talk after you recover. I’ll go get you some

ointment and pajamas.”
She had just propped herself up when Luna suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm, pulling her back forcefully.
“Don’t go,” Luna said. “Chat with me.”
Sophia smiled and nodded. She leaned over and pressed her face against hers.
“Luna, you’re my only family,” she said. “Don’t leave me behind.”
The sadness on Luna’s face dissipated a little. She replied hoarsely, “You’re my only family too, so you’re not allowed to leave me too.”
At this point, she slowly stopped talking, After falling silent for a moment, she continued, “Sophia, there’s something I haven’t dared to tell you. Have you heard of the Baker family in Vayberry?”
Sophia frowned, quickly retrieving information about the Baker family in Vayberry from her memory.
If the Wilson family was the number one family in Cester City, then the Baker family was the number one family in Vayberry.
The current leader of Baker Group was the eldest son of the Baker family, West Baker. This name was well–known to her because Jason had brought up this person’s name numerous times.
The Baker family was different from the Wilson family, which ran a business. A majority of West’s power came from activities related to the underworld.
Sometimes, when Jason encountered tricky problems, he usually relied on the influence of the Baker family to solve them.
Sophia thought, ‘Luna’s surname is also Baker. Could it be that she has some connection to the Baker family in Vayberry? Word has it that West also has a younger sister. Could it be…”
“You’re the heiress of the Baker family?” she asked.
Luna forced a smile and said, “I’m not considered the heiress of the Baker family. I’m just an abandoned child that West picked up from an orphanage. In the end, I became his plaything and his tool to vent desire.”
Sophia widened her eyes, her expression filled with the lack of courage to express doubt.
She said, “You, you mean…”
