Sophia entered Violet's room, finding her in tears. A pang of sorrow welled up within Sophia as she sat beside her, offering a comforting embrace.
"Don't worry. Silas assured me he won't let them keep what they took," Sophia consoled.
Violet pulled away, frustration boiling over. "Three years! We've invested three damn years into this plan, only to end up back where we started. Silas wants us to sell everything and settle for a three-bedroom house. I won't return to that life. I was meant to lead Orion Arch, not Astra. I endured pretending to like her foolish friends and being with that repulsive Alexander, just to lose it all."
Sophia reassured her, determination in her voice, "If he fails, I'll divorce him and take everything. We'll sell it all, buy a big house, and I'll find someone else. I won't rest until we have the life we deserve, okay?"
