Rise Above The Betrayal (Sophia and Tristan) novel Chapter 126

Chapter 126 

Gloria, who had fallen silent, was in complete shock, narrowing her eyes as she stared at Sophia. 

In contrast to Felicity, whose mind was clouded with hatred the moment she saw Sophia, Gloria appeared far more composed. 

Sophia wasn’t wearing any jewelry, and even her shoes were just a simple pair of white sneakers. 

But since Chloe could immediately recognize that Sophia was wearing the latest custom design from Luminous, which had just been released last month, Felicity, of course, could spot it as well. 

From what Felicity knew, Chloe had traded for this outfit from a poor district. 

So, if Sophia had now returned to her original family, that meant she had gone back to the impoverished area. 

How could someone who returned to a poor district still afford to wear a brand–new, custom–made Luminous piece? Felicity thought, disbelief filling her mind. 

Luminous had become an internationally adored brand in recent years, a symbol of aspiration for high society. 

Even when the Baker Family still held their former position, Felicity knew that securing the latest designs from Luminous would have been nearly impossible. 

And yet, the way the manager of Raffle Hotel treated Sophia was utterly strange. Just because Sophia said a few words, he was willing to risk offending both the Baker Family and the Stewart Family, 

How could Sophia be living better now than before? Gloria couldn’t help but feel uneasy as these thoughts swirled in her mind. 

To Gloria, Sophia’s rise back to the Stewart Family had only been possible because she had shamelessly played the part of Ethan’s obedient lapdog, all thanks to his influence. 

Now that Sophia was no longer with Ethan, Gloria thought she should have fallen into destitution, struggling in the impoverished district, just like she deserved. 

Before Gloria could dwell on it further, the security guards, along with those holding Felicity, began to drag them both out 

of the restaurant. 

“Wait! What’s going on? Howard, Griffin, and Ethan, who had been informed, rushed over in a hurry. 

When Howard and Griffin saw their wives being dragged by security, looking disheveled as though they had just been through a fierce battle, both men couldn’t help but furrow their brows in confusion. 

When the staff had notified them, they hadn’t explained what had happened, only mentioning that their wives had caused a scene, and the regional manager was escorting them out of Raffle Hotel. 

Their message had already been a polite understatement. Without wasting a moment, Howard and Grittin rushed over. 

“Darling” Gloria and Felicity cried out, their faces filled with grievance. 

Their eyes welled up with tears, and they struggled to break free from the guards, desperately reaching out to their 

husbands 

“Mr. Baker, Mr. Stewart, you came just in time, Finn said with a warm, polite smile, raising his hand slightly. 

A few more security guards moved in, holding Howard, Griffin, and Ethan as well.

Howard’s expression darkened. “Finn, what is the meaning of this? 

“Mr. Baker, I’d suggest you ask Mrs. Baker when you return, Finn replied with a soft smile. 

Howard shot a hard look at Gloria, who immediately shook her head, eager to explain, “No, it’s not my fault. Felicity lost her temper and insulted Sophia, and that’s why she was kicked out. I was just dragged into this? 

“Sophia?” Hearing the name, both Howard and Griffin turned to notice the stunning woman standing beurde Finn. 

“That’s Sophia?‘ they both thought in disbelief. Because of Sophia, Finn is humiliating them like this and kicking them out of Raffle Hotel. How could this be? 

“Hey… you’re lying… you…” Felicity, her mouth covered, glared at Finn with an expression full of fury, trying to argue 

As Felicity struggled more, the security guards pressed her down even harder, not giving her any chance to speak 

Griffin furrowed his brows deeply, his gaze fixed on Sophia’s cold and exquisite face. 

Sophia had been sent to her hometown and raised by her mother. Griffin didn’t have much of an impression of her 

He only remembered that she was indeed beautiful, but always lifeless, like a dull piece of wood. 

Sophia’s only purpose, in Griffin’s mind, had been to be married off to the Baker Family 

But Ethan had always shown no interest in her. Griffin had never gained anything from her that could be Family, so over time, he had stopped paying attention to this daughter. 

But now, just by standing there, Sophia exuded a pressure that made it impossible to even look directly at her. 

This kind of aura shouldn’t be coming from a 20–year–old girl who had been raised in a humble hometown. 

“Sophia, is what Mrs. Baker said true? Did you kick them out of Raffle Hotel?” Griffin asked, his tone probing, his eyes studying her carefully. 

But Sophia didn’t even glance at him. Her clear, cold eyes flicked up briefly, showing a hint of mockery and impatience 

Without needing Sophia to speak, Finn gestured with his finger, directly instructing the security guards to throw them out 

“Please leave. 

Before Howard or Griffin could say anything more, several security guards had already firmly grabbed them and began dragging them out. As they struggled, Griffin turned to look at Sophia. 

Finn, who had been serious moments before, was now smiling, speaking to Sophia in a way that seemed overly flattering and eager to please. 

Meanwhile, Sophia remained indifferent, her posture proud. After a few more words, she turned away from Finn and headed into the restaurant 

Finn immediately followed her, still wearing that obsequious, eager–to–please smile.
