Revenge On My First Love

Chapter 723 The Ending

Chapter 723 The Ending

"What could I say? Though I haven't remarried, I got back together with Baron. Things between us had

been in the past, Brandon."

Brandon smiled, "You think I'll revenge on you?"

"Won't you?"

"Yes, I indeed get my revenge. I asked Sophia to divorce your son and marry my daughter. Are you

satisfied?"

Emma looked at him in surprise, "You really did it?"

"Sure!"

Emma angrily said, "Brandon, you're so repulsive!"

Brandon moved his lips, "You could betray me. Why can't I find a good husband for my daughter?"

"Do you think I won't give your daughter a hard time if she marries my son?" Emma asked.

"You won't, Emma. I only wish my daughter could marry someone I know well. I could let go of the past

grudges and have my daughter marry your son. Why can't you accept my daughter?"

Emma was left speechless.

"Since Sophia agreed to my request, I don't think I do anything wrong?"

Emma said, "Do you think she will if you haven't threatened her?"

"But your son needs me, doesn't he?"

Emma was left speechless again.

Brandon glanced at her. "No worries. I will just leave my daughter to you. After your son completely

recovers, I'll leave by myself. I hope you treat my daughter like your own!"

With that said, he left.

Emma was so painful. If her son knew this, he would be very sad.

She observe Emmie for some time and realized Emmie was a good, innocent girl. Yet Drake only loved

Sophia.

If Drake had a crush on Emmie, she would help Emmie get Drake.

Emma went back to the ward. Seeing that they had a good time, Emma realized Sophia had decided to

hide it from Drake.

As Drake's mother, she couldn't sit by.

After thinking, she decided to go to Brandon, but was rejected by the latter. He said he only wished his

daughter a good life, and Emma offered to see Emmie as her own daughter. Yet Brandon said Baron

would not accept it.

Emma was well aware that Baron felt uncomfortable with hearing the name "Emmie".

There was nothing Emma could do about it. Yet she was unwilling to let Drake marry someone he didn't

like.

Brandon often asked Emmie check on Drake. Yet every time when Emmie visited Drake, she just stood

aside.

Drake was uncomfortable with Emmie being around. He meant to ask Emmie to leave, and yet Sophia

said, "She has nowhere else to go. Just let her stay here."

Drake felt something was amiss. Yet he couldn't tell it.

Drake recovered well. After a week, he could get up and walk.

Then he asked to be discharged from the hospital.

Sophia disagreed at first. Though she knew Drake had got much better, leaving here meant that

bidding farewell to Drake.

Then their last moments together were over.

Drake's persistence made Sophia give in.

After they went back home, Sophia said she had something else to deal with and left.

Drake waited for a long time but Sophia didn't come back. He called Sophia and yet her phone was

turned off.

Drake had never encountered such a situation. He panicked and felt something had happened.

Walking out, he asked, "Mom, where is Sophia going?"

Emma opened her mouth and closed it.

Something was off.

Drake found that Sophia's parents and Bonnie also left.

Drake asked again, "Mom, where is Sophia going?"

Emma found it hard to lie to him, so she said, "No more asking!"

"Has Sophia left? Why? For saving me?" Drake got the point immediately.

Drake looked at Emmie, "Say it!"

Emmie felt it hard to keep it to herself, so she told Drake the truth.

Drake took the knife and stabbed it into his body.

"Drake!"

Scared, Baron and Emma rushed to him.

"She had left. What's the point of me living alone? I'm going to kill myself!" With that said, Drake raised

the knife and was about to stab himself again.

Emmie was stunned. She had only read about this kind of love in books before, and it had moved her

deeply. But now that it was happening right in front of her, the impact was even more profound.

"No!" Baron and Emma tried to stop Drake.

Brandon walked in and scolded him, "Drake, I went through so much trouble to save you from Death,

and this is how you repay me?"

Drake gave him a cold glance. "Without Sophia, I'd rather die."

Emma looked pained. She had anticipated that her son would react like this but didn't expect it to be so

heartbreaking when it actually happened.

"Fine then! You can go ahead and die! This time I won't save you!" Brandon retorted.

"Whatever! Without Sophia, there's no point in living anyway," Drake replied as he continued to commit

suicide.

Emmie couldn't bear watching anymore; she pleaded with her father, "Dad, I know you're doing this for

my own good but I really don't want to marry someone who only has feelings for Sophia. Even if Auntie

and Uncle treat me well after we get married - if he doesn't love me - then I won't be happy either. Do

you really want me to be unhappy?"

Brandon hesitated for a moment before saying, "A bond can be forged over time; maybe the two of you

will eventually fall in love."

Emmie shook her head firmly, "Dad, I just don't see us working out together because his heart is full of

nothing but Sophia's memory; even if we try hard enough – there's no way around it."

Emma added, "Yes! What happened between Drake and Sophia is etched into his DNA – he'll never

forget about what they shared together... You want your daughter to be happy, but do you think what

you are doing will make them happy?"

Drake turned towards Brandon accusingly, "It was you who made Sophia leave? Now I'll kill you!"

He charged at Brandon while Emmie stood directly between them, shouting, "No! Don't kill my dad!"

"Enough!" said Brandon sternly. "I'm just testing their relationship with each other... Just go find Sophia

at Pinkerton... My daughter and I will leave soon!"

Drake stopped mid-action upon hearing these words from Brandon.

Emmie looked at Brandon in disbelief; he held her hand and said, "You're my daughter. I've worked

hard to raise you, and I know what you're saying is true. If Drake doesn't care for you, let's go find a

man who is a hundred times better than him!"

Emmie smiled and nodded before waving goodbye to Emma and Baron as they left.

Drake's injuries were treated at the hospital before he rushed over to Pinkerton with Emma and Baron.

They drove fast, arriving at the Lawson manor two hours later.

The Lawsons weren't surprised by Drake's arrival, but Sophia and Bonnie were nowhere in sight.

Drake explained his purpose there. Laura and Abbott exchanged smiles before telling him where

Sophia and Bonnie were located so that he could go see them.

He found them both easily enough; Bonnie didn't know what had happened until she saw Drake

approaching her.

"Daddy!" she cried out as he picked her up in his arms.

Sophia trembled when she saw him; she knew he would come but it still affected her deeply.

"Drake," Sophia said sadly. "You should go back now that we're divorced. You need to lead your own

life."

"My life includes you and Bonnie," replied Drake firmly. "I can't live without you."

"Don't say that! I saved your life!"

"Did you even ask me if I wanted to live?" asked Drake pointedly.

Sophia opened her mouth but didn't know how to respond.

Drake approached with their daughter in his arms, "Sophia, I understand why you did what you did - if it

was me, maybe I would have done the same thing - but I can't accept it because I cannot exist without

yours."

It was true; Sophia couldn't imagine living without Drake either.

"You're cruel," sobbed Sophia as tears streamed down her face. "You took away not only myself but Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

also our daughter too! It's like taking away my whole world!"

Drake hugged her tightly, "Sophia, we're here today because we want our family back together again –

just us three – never apart again."

As much as Sophia longed for this embrace from him again since their divorce, she knew deep down

she shouldn't.

Pushing him away forcefully, Sophia said, "Drake, I'm sorry. I'll take care of Bonnie myself and you

should leave."

Drake chuckled. "Silly girl, Dr. Glass has taken his daughter and left. From now on, no one will stand in

our way."

Sophia looked at him incredulously.

Drake took her hand. "Let's go get our marriage certificate back. And if you ever dare to turn it into a

divorce certificate behind my back again, I'll spank your butt."

Sophia laughed.

From the sight of the three of them leaving together, it could be seen that they were truly happy.
