Chapter 420 Sophia leaned over Henry , pressing both hands on the edge of the bed as she stared at his face .
Her fingers gently tilted his lowered her head , taking a deliberate sniff near him ..
schin up , and then she Henry , she purred , her voice dripping with arrogance , youre so eager to come to me , yet you still smell of Edies perfume .
Looks like that old woman means nothing to you after all , Her fingers slid slowly down Henrys neck , trailing over his chest .
Suddenly , her eyes narrowed , and with a sharp , deliberate motion , she pressed down hard Henry flinched at the sharp pain , struggling for a moment before snapping his eyes open .
His gaze collided with Sophias , and his lips parted in hoarse gasp You Henry groaned in disbelief .
His mind was a whirlpool of confusion … The last thing he remembered was hearing high heels clicking behind him , and then Edie had appeared , enveloping him in her scent before hed Jost consciousness .
Now , to his shock , he found himself on Sophias bed .
The thought of what she and Windsor had done made his stomach churn with disgust .
Sophia , he spat through gritted teeth , what are you trying to do ! You used to seduce me , now youre sleeping with my father , and now you want to turn your attention to me ? He never imagined Sophia would actually lay her hands on him .
Couldnt she do anything but seduce ment If hed known back then what kind of woman she really was , he wouldve used her to tie down some of their clients .
The Bennett Group would never have ended up in the mess it was in now .
Sophia laughed dismissively Who wants to seduce you .
Henry ! You think too highly of yourself .
Edies old and dirty , why would I want someone like you ! But I have to admit , youre in good shape … How about giving me some of your hearts blood ? She smiled seductively , her charm radiating off her .
Henry looked at her , stunned by the transformation .
The innocent girl hed once known seemed a world apart from this woman who now smirked at him with such dangerous allure .
He couldnt believe his ears .
She wanted his blood ! The weight of her words sank into his gut gut like lead .
What are you talking about ? Henry shot back , his voice laced with disbelief .
I swear , if you try anything .
Fll make sure you never step foot in the Bennet family again.
Sophia didnt flinch at his threat .
Instead , she leaned forward , her hands pushing into his shoulders as she drew herself close .
Her lips hovered near his ear , and she whispered with mocking softness .
Oh .
Henry , Im so scared … Lets see if you have the power to throw me out of the Bennett family Her laughter was cold , almost deranged .
At that moment , she had nothing to lose .
Her reputation was already in tatters , the Bennett family was on the verge of collapse .
What could they possibly threaten her with now ! The family had lost its value to her .
Henrys blood boiled .
He couldnt believe what was happening .
He stared at her , furious , but before he could react , she snatched a small fruit knife from the table and lunged at him .
With a sharp clang .
Henry kicked out instinctively , sending her crashing to the floor .
The knife clattered across the room .
Searing the opportunity , Henry jumped to his feet and pounced on her , pinning her to the ground .
One hand gripped her neck , while the other pressed down on her chest , his fury almost overwhelming You like blood so much ? Lets see if your hearts blood is any better , Henry growled , his voice a dangerous rasp , His eyes burned with anger as he reached for the knife , but before he could grab it , the door to the room was suddenly kicked open .
Several figures stormed into the room , and the sight before them froze them in place .
Henry was straddling Sophia on the floor , his left hand gripping her throat , while his right was pressed against her chest .
11:45 PM c Chapter 420 Henry , what are you doing ? Atlass voice trembled with shock In his eyes , Henry had always been the steady , composed one someone who kept his distance from women and worked tirelessly for the Bennett Group .
Even though Henry had just married Edie in a rush , Atlas had always seen him as a pillar of integrity .
But now , he could hardly believe what he was witnessing Why do you have to want Sophial Caspian demanded , clutching his chest as if the pain of what he was seeing might crush him .
Do you remember how Mom and Dad divorced ? Are you really going to do this ? The events of the previous night had been a nightmare for him hed been questioned by the police , and now this ? Seeing his brother like this shattered him .
Sophia , you dirty whore ! Hannah screamed , her eyes bulging v with rage .
She saw the state Sophia was in disheveled and on the floor while Henry was barely dressed .
Their clothing lay scattered all over the room , and it was clear to Hannah that things had gone far beyond what anyone could have imagined She could barely contain her fury as she glared at Henry , her voice rising in disgust .
You seduced Windsor and ruined our family , and now youre going after Henry ! Havent you done enough damage ! Whats wrong with you ? Are there no decent men left in the world , just the Bennett family for you to ruin ? Atlas and Caspian exchanged a glance , their faces turning pale .
For the first time , they were being called weaklings by their own mother in front of others .
They could only stand there , too shocked to respond .
Edies heels clicked as she stood at the doorway , her lips freshly painted as she took in the scene .
She watched the spectacle with a strange smile that didnt quite reach her eyes .
Henry , really ! Edie said with a chilling laugh .
You couldve had someone like Sophia , a piece of trash like her .
Youre not even picky anymore .
She casually tucked her lipstick away and smiled , but it was a cold , bitter smile .
Though she and Henry had no real feelings for each other , their marriage was still something of a contract .
Yet Henry , married to her just the day before , had already ended up in bed with Sophia .
She had once been revered by the Stewart family , treated like royalty , but now , she was being trampled underfoot by this insignificant Bennett family Edic , how dare you talk to me like that ? Sophias voice rose in fury as she struggled against Henry , pushing him with all her strength .
But their bodies collided with force , and for a moment , she froze in disbelief , looking down at Henrys growing reaction She gasped , eyes wide in realization .
Henry w was … reacting ! Henry , let me go ! Sophias voice broke with anger as she kicked him , trying to break free .
But no matter how hard she struggled , the more their bodies pressed together .
They were nearly entangled now , and she could hear the rapid pounding of both their hearts .
Let go of me ! Sophias panic intensified .
She couldnt afford to be expelled from the Bennett family .
But with the family members all watching coldly from the sidelines , there was nothing she could do .
Tears welled in her eyes as she looked at her mother , her voice faltering .
Mom , please help me .
Her words came out in a breathy , almost desperate tone , but to those around her , it sounded entirely different Henrys trying to force me … Hes hurting me Mom , help ! Sophia cried , her voice full of false inpocence .
The words , laced with sensuality .
carried a completely different meaning in the tense silence of the room .
