Chapter 425 I'll Fight You to the Death!
Isabella instinctively wanted to get close to something cold to ease the burning heat inside her body.
The moment her body hit the floor, she felt a touch of coolness.
So she moved toward it without thinking, her mind consumed by this single thought.
"So hot, please help me..."
"Am I going to die? Bodhi, Zander, George..."
She rattled off the names of more than a dozen men, the desire in her body driving her to writhe on the floor.
Soft moans kept escaping from her lips.
Isabella's appearance and actions left everyone stunned.
Everyone stared at her in disbelief, as if shocked by what they were seeing.
Sophia and Benjamin also watched Isabella coldly from the side, their eyes completely indifferent.
She had no intention to harm others, but she wouldn't tolerate anyone hurting her and Benjamin either.
Today was simply a case of giving someone a taste of their own medicine.
Before Isabella could tear off her dress, Sophia stepped forward and used medicine to ease the drug in her system.
She disliked Isabella, yes, but she never intended to destroy her this way.
She didn't want to, and she was above that.
At this moment, Benjamin stepped out and said to the guests, "Isabella might not be feeling well. Everyone can leave now."
The guests were all curious and gossipy, wanting to know what exactly had happened.
But since Benjamin had spoken, they had no choice but to disperse.
However, everyone already had their guesses.
They had heard before that the illegitimate daughter of the Brown family had bad character and a vicious mind, and now it turned out to be true.
Among the guests at the party today, a sharp-eyed old man was staring hatefully at this scene.
He was Stanley Knight, an elder of the Knight family who had arranged a marriage alliance with the Stewart family.
Although the Knight family couldn't compare to the White family and the Martinez family, they were still quite powerful.
After the marriage alliance with the Stewart family, Stanley had helped Zander a lot.
It could even be said that the Stewart family hadn't gone bankrupt largely thanks to Stanley.
Actually, he wasn't satisfied with Zander as a grandson-in-law, but he couldn't resist Phoenix's feelings for him.
Helplessly, he had agreed to the marriage.
As long as Zander treated Phoenix well, the Knight family would become a great asset to him in the future.
But who knew that a few days ago he received news that Zander had gotten involved with his ex-fiancée again.
This made him absolutely furious.
Seeing Isabella's shameless behavior now, he felt even more disgusted and contemptuous.
He had made up his mind!
He would go back and break off the engagement with the Stewart family!
He would never allow his granddaughter to be with someone like this.
Under Sophia's treatment, Isabella gradually regained consciousness.
When she opened her eyes, she found herself lying on the cold floor.
And the culprit Sophia was standing nearby, watching her calmly.
"Awake?"
Isabella scrambled up from the floor, checking if her clothes were intact.
Seeing that her evening gown was only slightly wrinkled, she breathed a sigh of relief.
She glared at Sophia angrily, "What did you do to me?"
Sophia said unhurriedly, "Ms. Brown, you're too kind. Seeing the floor was dirty, you actually used your own body to clean it."
"What are you talking about?" Isabella was stunned.
How could she have done something so embarrassing?
But Sophia had recorded it and held her phone in front of her, playing a video.
The footage showed her crawling on the floor and writhing around.
"Sophia, I'm going to kill you!" Isabella screamed out of control.
She suddenly lunged at Sophia, trying to grab the phone.
Sophia was prepared and quickly dodged to the side, avoiding her attack.
Isabella lunged too hard and couldn't stop in time, falling straight toward the floor.
A loud crash echoed in the hall, once again attracting the guests' attention.
Sophia pretended to be surprised, "Ms. Brown, why are you on the floor again? I already told you, you don't need to clean the floor."
"Sophia, are you doing this on purpose?"
Except for those years in Celestria, she hadn't been this embarrassed in a long time.
And this time it was in front of so many people!
The guests at this party were all important figures in Silverlight City.
Among them were several young talents she had planned to target.
Now it was ruined - everyone had seen her disgraceful state.
How could she show her best side to those people and attract them now?
Sophia chuckled and nodded, "You just figured it out. Isabella, if you dare to scheme against my husband, you should pay the price."
Benjamin was hers, and no one was allowed to touch him.
"Sophia, I'll fight you!" Isabella felt her head was about to split, her reason consumed by hatred.
Unwilling to give up, she rushed at Sophia again, wanting to teach her a lesson.
Under the drug's influence, it seemed like a voice kept whispering in her ear, "Sophia is your nemesis. Only if she dies can you find happiness."
Sophia must die!
Yes!
Once Sophia was dead, no one would stand in her way anymore.
Sophia frowned, grabbed her swinging wrist, and forcefully threw her off.
"Have you made enough of a scene? Isn't it my turn now?"
Sophia's expression was serious, her eyes cold, looking at her as if she were looking at a dead object.
Isabella shivered hard and instinctively took half a step back.
"What, what do you want to do?"
Sophia ignored her and instead looked at Benjamin, "Honey, help me call the police. Tell them someone drugged people at the party."
"Okay."
Benjamin took out his phone and dialed the police.
Isabella stared in disbelief, her eyes wide, "How dare you..."
Sophia narrowed her eyes, a mocking smile on her lips.
"Why wouldn't we dare? Just because you tried to harm us, should we just take it and not fight back?"
Isabella tried hard to defend herself, "But the drink you had was fine. I'm the one who had a problem."
Sophia asked coldly, "So you're admitting you drugged that drink?"
Realizing she'd been trapped into confessing, Isabella panicked, "I didn't! Don't make things up!"
"Whether you did or not isn't up to you. This wine glass is the best evidence."
Isabella was speechless, her heart jumping to her throat. She wanted to find a chance to escape.
However, after just two steps, she was stopped by the Martinez family's security guards.
The guards were all strong and tall - she was no match for them.
"What do you want?"
Sophia crossed her arms, "To bring you to justice, of course."
She was a good citizen of Novaria and would never abuse private punishment.
Someone as vicious as Isabella naturally needed to be handed over to the police.
Isabella glared at Sophia, tears streaming down uncontrollably, feeling helpless and panicked.
She pretended to be calm and threatened, "The drink I just had was also drugged. Aren't you afraid the police will find out?"
But Sophia responded calmly, "Sorry, I haven't done anything wrong, so I'm not afraid."
Isabella was shocked by her reaction, feeling uneasy.
Soon, the police arrived in a hurry and took Isabella away.
The police also took both suspicious wine glasses to test them at the station.
Isabella struggled desperately, "Test them right here! You're powerful and influential - what if you bully me, a helpless girl?"
She was just being unreasonable now.
But no one could do anything about it.
Because she insisted that Sophia had also drugged her.
The lead officer looked at Sophia, "How do you explain this?"
"The evidence is right here. Just test it now."
