Chapter 5
Sophia called me a week later.
I almost didn't answer. But I did.
"I need to talk to you," she said. Her voice was small. Defeated.
"I have nothing to say to you," I told her.
"He lied to me too," she said. "He told me you were cold. That you didn't care. That you were already seeing someone else. He said the marriage was over."
She paused.
"I had no idea about Lily. I had no idea any of it was real."
I sat down.
"Why are you telling me this?"
"Because he's doing it again," she said. "I found messages. To another woman. Same lines. Same promises. I thought... you should know. For your case."
She sent me screenshots. More evidence. More lies.
"Thank you," I said quietly.
"Don't thank me," she said. "I helped him hurt you. And I'm sorry. Truly sorry."
She hung up.
I sat there, staring at my phone.
