My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 48

Sophia was using the washroom when she heard several girls shouting viciously all of a sudden. “Get out right now! Get lost!”

Several female students who squatted in the cubicles were all chased out, making the entire washroom dead silent after a while. Someone seemed to be guarding the washroom outside because no one had entered for a very long time.

Sophia was squatting in her cubicle and saw a pair of feet with brightly painted red toenails in high heels through the gap below the cubicle door.

Bang, bang, bang! Someone had banged against the door. A girl then slammed the door outside and screamed, “Sophia Edwards, come out here! I know that you are inside!”

One of the girls in front, who had heavy makeup on and dressed like a killer, answered her rudely as a cigarette dangled between her lips. “What is it?! Haha, we’re here to beat you up!”

Sophia seemed confused. “Why do you want to beat me up? I have never offended you girls.”

Several girls in this gang were indeed students in Bayside University. They were supposed to be in their penultimate year now, but they all had to repeat their freshman year. Rumors had it that the girl leading the group, Miss Goth, was from a family of the underworld. Hence, she was always arrogant and unruly on campus—even the rich and noble students would not cross her. She was almost like an uncontrollable mad dog. Anyone who got into trouble with the group was considered unfortunate.

The university was like a miniature society—in fact, Bayside University was not merely a normal university, but rather a miniature reflection of Bayside City’s Vanity Fair as well.

The rich and powerful were involved in all sorts of shameful deeds—and it was also the same on campus.

Miss Goth’s family was one of the most powerful families in the underworld of Bayside City. She was also one of the most powerful and influential figures in Bayside University, taking payments from people to eliminate their problems.

For example, at that moment, she was eliminating the problem in hand—Sophia.

Miss Goth couldn’t help but pity Sophia since the latter seemed oblivious to her precarious situation. Hence, she patted Sophia’s shoulder while commenting, “You don’t have to panic because we have decided not to beat you. However, someone paid us to mess up your face and take a few nude photos of you.”

Those girls stared at Sophia hungrily while surrounding her. They started to roll up their sleeves, as if they were about to make a move against her.

Now that she was faced with these aggressive and fierce girls, Sophia merely scoffed. “Are you sure you girls want to attack me in the university? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll expose you? You will all get a demerit for your actions and be expelled!”

Miss Goth chuckled in response to that and her colorfully-dyed hair looked like a nest of lollipops. “You don’t have to worry about that.”

She held the cigarette butt between her fingers and abruptly poked at Sophia’s face. Sophia’s pretty little face would be ruined if it came into contact with the hot cigarette butt!

Miss Goth was extremely fast—she had just made a move and her hand was already in front of Sophia’s face. The hot cigarette was mere inches away from Sophia.

As expected, a sizzling sound of the cigarette butt was heard when it came into contact with someone’s flesh. The smell of charred meat immediately permeated everyone’s noses and they heard someone howling in pain in that instant. “Aaaah!”

However, it wasn’t Sophia who screamed; it was a bad girl standing next to her instead. That female student wore a low-cut blouse that exposed her deep cleavage. The cigarette butt landed in between her cleavage by chance and it was so painful that she screamed at the top of her lungs! There was an instant angry red mark on her cleavage.

Earlier, when the butt of Miss Goth’s cigarette was about to poke Sophia’s face, the latter had reached out to block it, so the cigarette was moved sideways and poked the girl next to her instead.

Miss Goth hissed. “How dare you—”

Before she could complete her sentence, a large fist came whizzing toward her face. The fist smashed squarely into Miss Goth’s face and everything went black for her. Bang! Miss Goth’s back banged into the washroom door.

Sophia did not give her the chance to respond and picked up her skateboard instead before smashing it against her head. There was another loud bang as the skateboard had directly hit Miss Goth’s head. Sophia’s attacks were decisive and accurate—she left no opportunity for her opponent to fight back and was splashed with blood on the spot.

The rest of the girls were dumbfounded when they saw blood. Throughout their years in the university, they had committed all sorts of petty crimes including marking other students with cigarette butts, forcefully taking nude pictures, and bullying other female students in general. However, this was their first time seeing blood and froze in shock as they were so scared that they couldn’t move a muscle.

“How dare you—” Miss Goth’s vision was turning black and she felt a warm liquid trickling down her face. After that, she saw Sophia standing in front of her holding a skateboard with a murderous expression. Sophia’s eyes were bloodshot with blood splattered across her face and hair. She looked terrible—in fact, she had the most ferocious appearance at that moment.

Seeing that Miss Goth was still able to move, Sophia raised her skateboard without hesitation before smashing it against her again. It was so forceful that Miss Goth collapsed into her own pool of blood.

Who am I, Sophia Edwards?

Am I a goody two shoes?

Hah!

I have outstanding academic results, but I do not have any family support or background to fall back on. Hence, jealous female students have always trapped me in the washroom since I was in junior high! Ripping my clothes off and taking nude photos are just part of my everyday life!

The washroom was eerily silent for the longest time. Finally, one of the female students snapped back to her senses from the initial fear and pointed at Sophia while reprimanding her. “How dare you do this! Do you know who she is? Do you know who her father is?”

Sophia turned her blood-splattered face to glare at the girl who spoke with her bloodshot eyes. The female student was so shocked that she stepped backward. Her gaze is terrifying!

However, Sophia didn’t give her the chance to retreat. Instead, she stepped forward and pushed the female student. Her opponent might have been a fellow female student, but Sophia never cared about their gender. It could have been a dog, a male or even a female, for all she cared. Sophia had hit the girl with such force that she flew backward and her head smashed against the cubicle door before she was knocked out.

I’ll have to aim to kill since I’ve started to attack. I must make sure that my enemy won’t have the courage to offend me again!

After witnessing Sophia’s cruelty, those girls immediately surrounded her since they outnumbered.

At that moment, Sophia’s hair was in a mess and her baseball cap was missing. The skateboard was in her left hand whereas her fringe had covered half of her eyes. She was slowly scanning the female students as her lips curled into a cruel smile.

Without waiting for them to make the first move, she raised her skateboard and smashed it against their leader’s head.

She was an orphan, so she had been relying on others since she was a child. Her uncle and aunt had treated her poorly as they thought that she was a waste of resources. They either scolded or beat her. In fact, her older cousin brothers would gang up with other boys in the village to bully her at times.

Sophia had been fighting with other children since she was a little girl, so she knew that it was useless to beg for mercy or compromise if someone else was determined to bully you. Therefore, the only way of resolution was to fight back until she defeated her enemies!

She was the king of the children in the village. Her older cousin brothers from her uncle’s family lacked the courage to expose her to their family despite being beaten to a pulp. In fact, several boys in the village would flee in fear when they saw her. Therefore, with guidance from Gwen, a retired agent, Sophia, who held her skateboard, was able to fight back with vigor.

The group of girls were unable to defeat Sophia because they’d be beaten up either way—whether they fought back or not. After about 10 minutes of being beaten up, their clothes were in disarray and two of them had already fainted with the rest of them wailing like banshees in the washroom.

Hale, who was hiding not too far from the school entrance at a corner and playing ‘Mobile Legends’, suddenly received a phone call from Sophia.

“Hale, come over to clean up.”
