Chapter 130 Kneel In Repentance
Mason was gripped with envy after seeing how Tristan wrapped Sophie in his arms.
“Soph, don’t make a hasty decision just because you hate me.”
Sophie let Tristan’s arms circle her waist and sneer at Mason.
“Mason, you’re so full of yourself.” Refusing to continue the conversation further, Sophie turned on her heel and tugged Tristan with her to leave.
This is the first time she’s holding my hand.
Tristan stared at the hands clasped together for a while before he covered her small hand with his.
Mason was furious at their departure. I finally worked up the courage to owe up to my mistake from five years ago. Why wouldn’t she forgive me?
“Sophie, what can I do to get you to forgive me?”
All he wanted was a chance.
Sophie’s steps didn’t falter. She didn’t like anyone or anything clinging to her. Since the situation was already like that, words were meaningless at that point.
Cheat on me once, and I’m never taking you back. That’s my principle, and nothing can change that. Hence, Mason’s words mean nothing to me.
Seeing her leaving with another man without the slightest hesitation, Mason fell to his knees with a loud thud.
Willow stared at Mason with disbelief. How can he do this? Is he still the proud Mason? Why is he acting like this whenever Sophie is around?
“Get up, Mason! What are you doing? Are you still a man? How could you kneel at her?”
Tristan looked over his shoulder and saw his rival kneeling on the floor.
He really likes Sophie. Well, due to his past betrayal, he doesn’t deserve any sympathy no matter what he does now or how much he likes her.
Sophie turned her head and saw Mason kneeling on the ground. The expression on her face looked colder at the unseemly sight.
“Is this necessary, Mason?” Well, I’m not going to stop him since he wants to do it. Honestly, I don’t care what he does.
“Soph, I was wrong. I should’ve trusted you. I shouldn’t have left you. I regret it now. Do you know I would dream of you every night for the past five years? You have always been on my mind. I can’t forget you. Can you please give me another chance? We can leave this city and start a new life somewhere else. Would you like that? I don’t mind doing anything as long as I’m with you.”
“Sorry, you might want that but not me. Why would I leave this city? The one in the wrong was never me in the first place.” Sophie turned to Tristan. “I don’t want to go back to the room anymore. Let’s get out of here.”
Tristan removed his coat and slid it over her shoulder as he led her to the exit.
He said I could go wherever I wanted. However, no one can force me to do anything I don’t want to.
Mason was still on his knee even after Tristan and Sophie had left.
Willow went over to help him up, but no matter how hard she pulled, he refused to stand.
“Mason, let me send you back.” Willow pleaded, “Please don’t do this. Sophie doesn’t want you, but you still have me. I always have my eyes on you. Can’t we just be together?”
“I’ve wronged her. I refused to listen to her explanation and just took off when she needed me the most. What do you even see in someone like me?”
Mason got up to his feet and left the karaoke bar looking absent-minded.
He wasn’t paying attention when he crossed the road, and a car crashed into him.
Willow had been right behind him all the while. When she saw the car hit him, she raced over to his side.
Her hands were covered with blood when she touched him.
“Don’t scare me, Mason! Mason, what’s wrong? Are you okay?” Willow almost cried her eyes out.
However, Mason merely mumbled, “I’m sorry, Sophie.”
Tristan drove to Breakwater Port. The place was deserted, except for the two of them.
Silence hung heavy in the car.
I have no idea what Mason means to her, but does he really mean nothing to her?
If I had met her earlier, then she wouldn’t have had to face everything alone. She was probably only thirteen to fourteen years old at that time.
“No. I agree with every decision you make no matter what you do.” None of those who have hurt her can ask for her forgiveness.
“Let’s head back.” It’s getting late, and she still has things to do tomorrow.
“You can go back.” It’s already so late. He should go back and rest.
