Chapter 196 - Party at Hill villa (5) (2/2)

Just as Sophia thought that she is doomed, she didn't feel Mark's body restricting her anymore. She opened her eyes and saw Felix pummeling Mark's face. Mark was on the ground, and Felix on top of him, raining vicious punches. After few seconds, Mark's face was covered in blood.

...

Sarah rushed inside and observed her sister with red cheek, disheveled hair and skirt. Felix was on top of Mark, releasing his rage. Immediately, Sarah understood what happened and rushed to Sophia, pulling her aside. ”Come here...”

Sophia was trembling and could not speak.

Aiden and JoAnna got inside and looked at Sophia and Sarah. JoAnna rushed to Sophia. Sarah showed Aiden to get Felix, and he pulled him from the back. ”That's enough... anymore and you will end him.”

Everything was quiet for few seconds. ”Are you OK?” JoAnna asked Sophia. Sophia nodded then shook her head.

Felix walked to Sophia and embraced her with blood dripping from his hands. Sophia sobbed, hiding her face in his chest.

Sarah and JoAnna walked and stopped next to Mark, observing him. Aiden came next to Sarah and observed Mark with them. Mark was unconscious, his face bloody and distorted.

”What should we do?”, JoAnna asked, her cold gaze not leaving Mark.

”Mom?”, Sarah was also looking at Mark with an icy gaze.

JoAnna nodded, ”Mhm”.

One minute later Stella entered and observed six people. Felix was holding sobbing Sophia in his embrace. Aiden was standing next to Sarah while Sarah and JoAnna looked at the bloodied Mark who was not moving, on the floor. Looking at the scene, Stella had a good idea what happened.

Stella instructed JoAnna: ”Give Sophia something for nerves. You can find it in my bathroom medicine cabinet.” She turned to Felix: ”Take her to her room. Hot shower and let her rest. Stay with her.”

Stella looked at Aiden and Sarah, ”You two are doing OK?”

Two of them nodded.

Stella continued, ”Good. Go back to the party. Nothing happened.”

Stella made a call and less than a minute later two men showed up dragging Mark out from the side entrance, and one maid came to clean up the blood from the floor. After less than two minutes, the area looked like nothing happened, and Stella returned to the party.

Aiden and Sarah went back to the party and started slow dancing. He leaned and whispered in her ear, ”Your mom is scary.”

Sarah giggled. ”You wanted to say that she is capable, right?”

”She is not a simple person, is she?”

”I never said that she is.” Sarah shook her head slightly and leaned it on his shoulder.

He thought for some time before talking again. ”I will reconsider joining you for that training thing...”

”Don't you dare!” Sarah warned him. ”It will be at least two weeks. How can I be apart from you for so long?” She looked at him with a pitiful face.

He laughed seeing her like that and kissed her.

Aiden pulled her close and whispered in her ear, ”It's me who can't stand to be apart from you.”

Sarah felt that her heart is swelling. She goofily smiled and held him tightly while they moved slowly to their own beat.

Two of them enjoyed each other company ignoring piercing gazes from several people. Andrea and Clara from one side, and Ed from the bar area. They didn't remove their venomous gazes from the couple who looked like they are in the world of their own, and don't notice anyone around them.
