A Complicated Romance Chapter 585
A flurry of emotion stormed across Third Brother’s face in quick succession. He almost rushed forward to give Benedict a good bashing. The latter was in shock. Although Third Brother was thin and frail, it would not be surprising if the man would fight with his life in regards to this extraordinary shame of being cheated on. It surely took Benedict by surprise that Third Brother gave in to his weak self once again. Despite the rage that was written all over his face, he suppressed himself from lashing out in the end.Once home, he initiated divorce with his wife and even offered his wife to Benedict in hopes that the latter would continue looking after him in the future.The spirit of loyalty was a huge deal among the hooligans. Benedict was in the wrong in this matter, hence he continued looking after Third Brother after the incident. Their relationship did not become sore because of the woman. Everyone else distanced themselves from Benedict because of his misfortune. However,

Benedict went to his mother and told her what he learned from Third Brother. “Mom, you said that Sophia wouldn’t trick us but look, she got her money back and left us to suffer this poor fate alone!”Judy was furious to learn about this but was aware of Sophia’s power and influence in the city. For fear that her son would go challenge the woman, she tried convincing him. “Sophia did me a favor in the past and I’ve been helping her out all these years. She wouldn’t do this to me. You shouldn’t believe those rumors.”“Mom, this has got to be the truth. Third Brother said many people already know about this. Sophia is heartless. She should’ve shared half of the six million dollars she acquired. Yet she kept everything for herself!”“Stop talking nonsense!” Judy glanced around to ensure no one was watching before reminding her son. “We can’t make wild guesses without proof. Let’s take a step back. We can’t demand money from her even if she really got it back. Her keeping quiet about it

Yvonne joined in opposition to the same adversary. “Exactly! Sophia is pushing it. No matter what, she has to share part of the money instead of keeping everything for herself!”Due to her new relationship with Benedict, it would probably benefit her too if he was given part of the money.“But too bad as I’m just a nobody. I can’t fight her.” He let out a sigh.She smirked. “If we can’t reason with her openly, then we can plot against her secretly in the dark. We might have a chance at winning this.”Yvonne learned recently that the infamous Mayoress Sophia was Nightingale from Hoover Alley. She grew up in the same place, hence the name was not unfamiliar to her.When she was younger, every man in Hoover Alley liked the woman named Nightingale. Crudely put, all of them wanted to sleep with her.Yvonne was envious of Nightingale back then. It did not matter what you did as long as you had the men’s attention. This was how one could live an easy life in those kinds of dodgy places.

“Of course, I do,” Serena replied matter-of-factly. “She has only left for America for a few months. How did you get to know her?”Rachel made up a lie instead of revealing Suzy’s memory loss. “I accidentally bumped into her in the library last time. After a brief chat, I came to know that her name’s Suzy and she’s also from Perth.”Serena did not suspect anything. It was not impossible for Rachel to bump into Suzy. It was a small world after all.“So why did you send me a photo of her?” Serena questioned.“This… Um…” At a loss of what to say, Rachel cracked her head for an excuse. “It suddenly occurred to me that she looks a lot like Christina, so I sent the photo over to you.”“Ah, I see.” Serena believed her words. “Suzy does resemble Christina a lot. If I didn’t know them both to begin with, I would’ve suspected that they’re sisters.”Rachel played along. “That was my first thought too. I didn’t expect two non-related people would look so much like each other.”“It’s exactly

“What if Suzy decides to pursue Michael relentlessly? That’ll certainly affect my relationship with him. Besides, he has already fallen out with Christina, so there’s no need to create more issues.”Rachel tried hard to stop herself from shouting at the treacherous Serena. She spent all day trying to convince the latter but it was to no avail. Feeling impatient, she spoke more rudely.“Miss Garcia, I want to use Suzy to destroy Christina and Michael, not steal him away from you. What are you worried about? His love for Christina is unusually deep, hence it’s highly likely for the ashes of their passion to burn once more. Besides, what if Heather comes out of the coma? You’re too naive.”Serena was shocked upon hearing that. Indeed, she was also worried that Heather might regain consciousness. When that happened, Michael would learn that the devil was not Christina but Winona and Sophia.When that happened, he would not blame Christina anymore and instead be incensed at Serena. This

Back then, Winona told Sophia the reason she sent Suzy abroad was to prevent the latter from exposing their evil plan of setting up Michael and Serena.Sophia would not have figured out that Winona thought Serena was her birth daughter and Suzy Sophia’s. Winona only had the motive to murder Suzy for fear of the fact that she exchanged the babies at birth all those years ago would be discovered. Serena replied, “I didn’t expect that too but it’s not necessarily a bad thing. Rachel’s also planning to bring down Christina. It would save us some troubles with her over there influencing Suzy to continue helping us.”A frown formed between Sophia’s brows. “Can we trust Rachel? I can’t help but be worried as she’s Sean’s sister after all. What if she tells him about this and he passes it on to Christina?”“Mom, don’t worry about that. Rachel’s Matthew fiancée, you wouldn’t know how much she hates Christina.”Sophia agreed after a brief consideration. “You’ve got a point. Indeed, we need

The driver led Sophia into the villa, and only upon seeing Miss Laura standing in the living room was she relieved.The latter greeted her. “Madam, Mayor is in the study room.”Sophia nodded before heading upstairs to the study. John was sitting by the desk, staring right in the direction of the door with a stern expression.She tried to calm down before stepping forward. “Johnny, you should have a lie down if you’re not feeling well. Let me help you to the bedroom.”“No, I can’t rest well either way.”“Is something troubling you? Has something gone wrong at work?” She came over to rub his shoulders.He suddenly turned around to look at her face. “Sophia, how long have we known each other?”She did not know what he was getting at. “Probably over twenty years.”He nodded, looking as if he was deep in thoughts. “Yes, it’s been over twenty years since I impulsively got into your bed. I’ve always been a disciplined man but why would I lose control on that particular night?”The wo
