In sweet expectation

Before she could finish her words, Freddy interrupted her with a loud bang on the table. "Enough! It's enough that Sofia used that trick. If I hear a rumour like that again, you know what I'm capable of!
Hearing that threat, Diana froze and was completely silent. After a few minutes, Freddy left and finally everyone sighed in relief.
"What happened? Isn't Mr. Spark your boyfriend? How can he talk to you like that?"
At that moment Diana was f*****g embarrassed and afraid. Freddy had taken her to several parties over the past year, and she had never been able to stop the rumors about their relationship, so Diana had confirmed that she was Freddy's woman.
It was with that in mind that Diana decided to go to Spark Manor to instigate a divorce with a false pregnancy test result.
But, with Freddy's words, she understood that... it was a lie. That night Diana found out a little about Freddy and Sofia's marriage.
In fact, Sofia's father was in debt to a loan shark, so he decided to sell his own daughter to the club. Maui stream club.
But, one night, when she ran away, she happened to bump into Freddy and she begged him to help her. Unexpectedly, 3 months later, Sofia went to the Spark family with a pregnancy test in her hands.
The Spark's were famous and paid a lot of attention to their reputation. Clearly such a scandal would ruin their reputation. Besides, Sofia was pregnant, and the only solution was for her and Freddy to get married.
However, two months after their marriage, Sofia had suffered a miscarriage... Or so everyone thought.
The reality was that it had all been planned by Sofia. That she was subjected to club drugs, meeting Freddy after she ran away and the fake pregnancy to force a marriage...,
All of which she had done to get into the Spark family.
Unfortunately, the Spark family absolutely hated Sophia, especially after learning that she was never pregnant. Thinking about it, the Spark family had always treated her with indifference.
It was no surprise that Freddy was so angry with her. She should never have been a greedy one!

After a couple of days, Sofia waited calmly, but never received an answer from Freddy.
That meeting at the maui club made her suspect that Freddy really didn't want to divorce her just to get upset and let the world know that he was being unfaithful with a f*****g beautiful woman.
Maybe that's how he intended to get even for what she had done to him.
It was obvious that Freddy had great patience to keep delaying the divorce, but she couldn't wait another day. She had plans! Plans that would only work if she was totally divorced.
But the clock was ticking and she didn't want to wait for her doom.
At Sofia's thoughtful attitude, Melanie put down her cutlery and frowned, "Friend, you should come with me to the company. We're planning to sign a new designer and start our own clothing brand.
"Really? Although, I've been out of work for 4 years..." Sofia said with a hint of sadness.
"Don't limit yourself, you can do it! You don't lose anything by trying" Melanie said in high spirits.
Hearing that, Sofia thought for a couple of seconds and agreed. Maybe a job will keep her busy while the divorce goes through.
The next day, Melanie woke up as early as usual and grabbed Sofia's old designs to take to the publisher's office.
When Brian Murphy saw the designs, he was delighted. "She's your friend? she's very talented! It would bring us quite a lot of benefits if we signed her..." Brian said excitedly.
In fact, Brian knew Sofia's reputation. After all, she was known as the flash in the pan in clothing and jewellery design. But, from one day to the next, the woman simply disappeared from the design world.
Many thought that she had just lost her inspiration after being internationally recognised as the best designer.
However, others said that she had just married a wealthy man and had to cope with married life.
But, no one thought that Sofia would finally come back after 4 years, just when everything had forgotten her existence....
"Do you think Miss Marwell will be free tonight? I'd like to go to dinner" said Brian.
At that, Melanie felt happy. That invitation only meant that he had agreed to sign with Sofia!
That night, during dinner, Sofia and Brian were talking for a couple of minutes. Although she had said she hadn't done any sketches for a couple of years, Brian didn't think anything of it.
He just wanted her to draw up a couple of sketches for fashion week. If the designs were approved, she could sign with the company directly.
When the clock struck 10 p.m., Brian sighed and paid the bill. "Do you want me to drive you home? It's late and they shouldn't be out on the street alone.
"It would be great! Let me go to the ladies' room first... Will you come with me Sofia?" Melanie said suddenly.
Nodding, Sofia and Melanie went to the bathroom... "This is fantastic! I was practically hired already!" Melanie expressed without being able to hide her excitement.
In fact, Sofia was surprised, she didn't expect things to go so smoothly and quickly.
"Let's not sing victory... we still don't know if your boss liked the sketches yet... If not, I will be very sad for you and Mr. Brian" Sofia said awkwardly.
"Don't worry. The last word is always Brian's... This is just a procedure, and you will get the job!" Melanie expressed with a tone full of pride for her friend.
Melanie's words were like a soothing melody to Sofia. All her fear could diminish from one second to the next. What did she do to deserve such a good friend?
After Melanie's words, there was the sudden sound of high heels coming from the bathroom door.
Unfortunately, the heels belonged to Diana... When she looked up and saw Sofia, a hint of surprise came over her.
"You're sick, you follow me everywhere..."
At those words Sofia washed her hands and dried them with a piece of paper. "You must really hate your face. Do you want me to accommodate you?"
When Diana heard that, she took a step back. She was no match for Sofia, besides, she was not only Sofia but her friend. It was obvious that she had no chance of winning.
"Do you want us to shout to the whole world how a slutty mistress looks?" Melanie suddenly said.
"What an immoral thing to say.... Don't you know how your little friend married Freddy? If I am a mistress Sofia is much worse than that..." said Diana mockingly.
As soon as Melanie heard that, her skin crawled with anger and she wanted to pounce on Diana to smash her face, but, Sofia's sudden grip stopped her.
"Is that what Freddy told you?" Sofia's voice was calm.
Diana was a stupid woman. She'd never spread that rumour, which meant she'd only found out about it a few days ago.
"Yes, he said he was tired of you and that the worst thing he could have done was to meet you in that club. You did something very dirty to him!"
As she said that, Diana looked at Sofia's expressionless face and felt a wave of fear suddenly sweep over her. Realising Sofia's discomfort, she took a step back and tried to stop Sofia from hitting her again.
However, Sofia remained silent. In fact she didn't even intend to hit her. She simply gave her a sidelong glance and threw the piece of paper into the trash can before turning away.
"Sofia, don't worry. That woman and Freddy are immoral assholes. Don't mind them" Melanie said as she and Sofia walked out of the bathroom.
Unfortunately, as Melanie spoke, Sofia saw Freddy, standing next to a couple of people. That very second, Sofia lowered her face and walked hurriedly while pretending not to see him.
Unfortunately, Danilo Pilman, sensing a slight danger approaching behind Freddy, said in surprise, feigning insanity.
"Isn't that your wife? What is she doing here?"
Hearing that, Freddy immediately turned his gaze back. Sofia was sick! She had followed him there!
With rage in his body, Freddy was about to do something crazy in front of everyone, he was going to publicly tear her apart until she cried like the b***h she was.
