Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret




Chapter 932:

But her palm never made contact.

Eyes flashing with a quiet fury of her own, Sadie moved at lightning speed. She caught Ophelia's wrist mid-swing, gripping it so hard that Ophelia let out a gasp of pain.

Sadie used the momentum to fling Ophelia's hand back, then she shoved Ophelia altogether.

Ophelia had the misfortune of wearing high heels at the moment, and she stumbled backward, completely losing her balance.

"Ah!" she yelped as she fell on the ground in a sorry heap, her palms scraping against the rough surface of the asphalt.

Ophelia blinked in disbelief. Had Sadie actually pushed her?

Ophelia jerked her head up to glare at Sadie. "How dare you lay a hand on me!”

Sadie stepped closer, closing the distance between them. She grabbed Ophelia by the jaw and forced her to meet her eyes.

Ophelia saw the unmistakable warning in her face. There was a ruthless glint in Sadie's eyes that was absolutely terrifying.

And then Sadie spoke, her words slow and deliberate. "Clearly, you don't really know who you're dealing with, Ophelia. Perhaps you should ask around, find out what kind of person I really am."

Her fingers tightened ever so slightly. Ophelia winced in pain, but didn't dare to protest in any way.

"If you ever try something like this again—" Sadie leaned in, her voice barely a whisper when she continued, "Next time, it wouldn't be just a fall. Who knows? Maybe... a broken leg?"

Ophelia froze, feeling her body go cold.

Ophelia was shaking now, her face deathly pale, her eyes wide with fear.

Satisfied, Sadie gave her a faint smirk. Her goal had been achieved.

People like Ophelia would not respond to reason. They only recognized power, so one had to use fear to communicate with them.
