Just when she was about to lose it, Wendy turned to her.

Sophia had reached her limit. "Both of you, get out!"
Wendy refused to back down."Say it! Tell him yourself!"
"| don't owe you that!"
"Aha! You still love him! You're stringing him along, trying to get him to divorce me! Sophia, you're bullying me!
I'll fight you!"
Wendy lunged at Sophia. Sophia stumbled back, just as Jake shoved himself between them, pushing Wendy hard.
Wendy fell backward, her foot slipping on spilled soup. She landed hard on the floor with a thud. "Ow! It hurts!"
Wendy screamed. Sophia looked over and saw blood.

Jake stayed behind, trying to comfort her.
"Get out!" Sophia yelled.
"Sonya, you saw my determination. Believe me, | love you,
you, right?"
"Sophia was furious. She grabbed a tray from the bedside table and hurled it at Jake. He dodged it, but seeing
her reach for another weapon, he fled the room. "Sonya, think about how good | was to you. We can start over!"
Sophia picked up a pitcher and threw it after him. It crashed against the doorframe. Silence descended. Sophia

Sean arrived shortly after getting the news.
Sophia ran into his arms, tears welling up.
"I want to go home."
Sean kissed her forehead. "I'll arrange for them to be transferred to another hospital. They won't bother you
anymore."
"| just want to go home."
"Sophia..."
"Honey, let's go home," she whispered, looking up at him with pleading eyes. Sean, looking at her vulnerable
state, felt a mix of helplessness and adoration."Okay, I'll talk to the doctor." While Sean spoke to the doctor,
Sophia went downstairs to see her friend, Chloe. Chloe was packing her bags.
"Chloe, you're checking out?" Sophia asked.
Chloe paused, then turned, forcing a bright smile. I'm fine. No need to stay here. Besides, thist place smells like a

Sophia hugged Chloe."I'll always be here for you. Lean onwhen you're tired." Chloe hugged back

Relieved to see Chloe's renewed spirit, Sophia relaxed a bit.
"Where's Tree?" (Chloe's boyfriend)
"He's taking care of the discharge papers." Chloe rolled her eyes. "He's acting like my mother hen, nagging me
non-stop, insisting I stay at his little bar. | refused, so he wouldn't letleave." "And you agreed?"
Chloe nodded. 'Does that make you feel better?"
Sophia let out a breath. "Much better."

Upstairs, Sean had finished the arrangements. The hospital would send a private nurse to their house daily to
check Sophia's wound and change the dressings.
"Let's go home!" Sophia exclaimed happily.
Sean kissed her. "Okay, let's

Two nurses in the elevator seemed to overhear and giggled.
"By the way, you know Wendy, right?" Sean asked.
"Oh, yeah."

"Oh my god, how did that happen?"
