After the customary procedure, the married couple came down from the stage to mingle with the
guests. Sophia, Alexander, and the others were seated at the table in front, so Megan and Casper
arrived at their table with their wine very quickly.
Sophia couldn't tell if Megan loved Casper, but Megan seemed to be very satisfied with the Cooper
family because she had been beaming throughout the evening.
After toasting the guests, Megan said to Sophia, “Sophia, thank you for coming.”
“You're welcome, Ms. Queen.” Sophia smiled.
Megan nodded and followed Casper from behind with a smile on her face.
Sophia smiled alluringly upon taking a glance at Megan's retreating figure. Seemingly in a good mood,
Sophia proceeded to down half a glass of her wine. This is an auspicious occasion. Although Megan
isn't my friend, she's surely not my enemy.
Since it was a wedding reception between the Cooper family and the Queen family, the dinner was a
grand affair. The dishes were all prepared by the chefs from Mirage.
Halfway through the meal, Sophia had to use the restroom because she had just had two glasses of
juice before dinner.
She knew it had been a while since Alexander met up with Justin and the rest, so she merely took her
purse and left after informing Alexander about where she was going.
After Sophia left, Samuel asked without restraint, “Alex, have you not proposed to her yet?”
Alexander almost threw his glass at Samuel upon hearing that question. Does Samuel not know any
boundaries? He knows the Dawson family is opposing our relationship at the moment. How can I
propose if I can't even get the Dawson family's approval?
Seeing how solemn Alexander's expression was, Samuel was eager to take revenge, so he sighed and
asked the obvious, “Does Mr. Dawson not like you?”
“You could've just told me you wanted a good round of beating,” Alexander sneered in response.
Charles glanced at Samuel, and he didn't pity Samuel one bit. “I think he hasn't gotten a beating in a
long time.”
Justin then swirled his wine glass and uttered, “From what I hear, you seem to have fallen for a girl
recently. However, your feelings aren't reciprocated.”
Samuel's mood turned sour when he heard what Justin said. “Who told you that? I'm handsome, rich,
and generous. Is there any girl I can't get?”
“Oh? I wanted to offer you my help. Since you've already gotten your hands on her, forget about it.”
Justin scoffed.
Samuel failed to show off, so he said, “Well, there's nothing wrong with learning more. If you have
advice for me, I'm listening.”
Charles couldn't help chuckling when he heard that.
Alexander, on the other hand, wasn't in the mood to listen to that conversation. Samuel's mouth is good
for nothing except for talking crap. However, he asked a good question. When should I propose? Given
a choice, I would propose to her right now! Of course, I know I have to at least wait until Mr. Dawson
agrees to see me. If someone were to ask me if I have regrets in life, I would definitely say I regret
going through the divorce procedure with Sophia two years ago. That's not something I can change
now, so it'll remain a regret in my life.
Megan's awe-inspiring wedding reception was held in an enormous ballroom. Therefore, it took Sophia
a five-minute walk to exit the ballroom through the side entrance.
The restroom wasn't far from there onward, but there was a long line of people outside the restroom.
Sophia was familiar with the hotel, so she quickly headed to take the elevator to the fifth floor.
The fifth floor was mainly VIP rooms, and every VIP room had its own restroom. Therefore, the
common restrooms were all available.
Due to how long it took her to get there, Sophia was worried that Alexander could get concerned about
her. Hence, she wrote him a text on her phone after exiting the restroom.
Before she could hit send, someone suddenly grabbed her from behind by grabbing her waist with one
hand and covering her mouth with the other.
The assailant then dragged Sophia into a VIP room nearby and locked the door from the inside.
Upon locking the door, the assailant thought Sophia couldn't escape, so he immediately let go of her.
“Hi, Sophia,” the assailant said.
Sophia couldn't help but chuckle when she saw Tyler before her eyes. “Mr. Xenos? What are you
doing?”
Tyler frowned when she saw Sophia smiling. However, he didn't give it much thought.
As a matter of fact, kidnapping Sophia was a spur-of-the-moment decision. He saw Sophia on the third
floor when she was going to the restroom. He also saw her going to the elevator after taking a glance
at the line outside the restroom.
Since the wedding reception between the Cooper family and the Queen family was held on the third
floor that day, the restroom was bound to be crowded.
Tyler could tell that Sophia didn't want to wait in line. At that moment, he started planning his attack.
The fourth floor is filled with standard private rooms, so the restrooms there would most probably be
packed with people, and the cleaners would also be there. The fifth floor, on the other hand, has VIP
rooms. Since those VIP rooms have private restrooms, the common restrooms will be empty. Sophia
will eventually end up on the fifth floor, so I should wait for her there.
Sure enough, he saw Sophia walking into the restroom after he got prepared.
Upon seeing Sophia entering the female restroom, Tyler entered the male restroom and waited outside
for her before he caught her and dragged her into the VIP room.
Tyler had been into Sophia ever since she divorced Alexander, but he had to abandon his desire for
her. Although he wanted to pursue her back then, he was still working at Odyssey. Besides, Alexander
was still rather friendly with Sophia.
Things changed after Alexander forced Tyler and the others out. With nothing left to gain, Tyler also
knew he had nothing to lose. Hence, he proceeded to go after what he had always wanted.
“We're alone, aren't we? Don't you already know what I want to do?” Tyler smiled devilishly and poured
a glass of water. He then whipped out a white tablet from his pocket and dropped it into the glass of
water before Sophia's eyes.
That white tablet completely dissolved in the water within a couple of seconds.
“Here, Ms. Yarrow. Drink this. After this, you'll be in seventh heaven. I promise,” Tyler instructed.
Still wearing a smile on her face, Sophia asked Tyler, “What if I say no?”
Tyler scoffed coldly in response. “I've already locked the door. Even if Alexander is out there looking for
you now, it'll take him some time before he reaches here. You can't escape, and he won't come to your
rescue. If you don't want to suffer, I suggest you play along. After all, you're a pretty woman. I wouldn't
want to handle you roughly!”
With that, his expression turned grim, and he shoved that glass of water toward Sophia. “Drink!”
Sophia took a step back and shied away from Tyler when she reached out her hand. “I'll do it myself.”
Tyler cocked his brow in satisfaction when he saw Sophia complying. Hence, he gave her the glass.
Sophia took the glass and turned around to send Tyler crashing into the wall with a kick.
Before Tyler could react, Sophia grabbed a chair with the other hand and clamped it on his waist to
hold him down. Afterward, she squeezed his mouth open and poured the drink down his throat.
After he had gulped down the entire glass of water, Sophia let go of him and dropped the glass on the
ground. It shattered the moment it hit the ground.
“You're asking for trouble!” Tyler caught his breath and glared at Sophia. Did she force the entire glass
of water down my throat? Is she crazy?
Sophia gave him an amused look and kicked him once more. “Am I?”
Sophia was wearing heels that night, so Tyler felt as though he had been stabbed with a knife when
she kicked him.
As soon as Sophia finished her sentence, she grabbed the chair and smashed him with it.
Tyler wailed in pain and curled up into a ball on the ground.
The moment Sophia let go of the chair, she heard noises coming from the other side of the door. She
then stepped aside and saw Alexander walking into the room after the door was pushed open.
