The criticism towards Sophie from the surrounding crowd was relentless. Having learned the power of public opinion, Bea was now wielding it with full force.
By the time Jenna returned with water for Sophie, she found the hallway outside the hospital room crowded with people. The nurses couldn't even disperse them. "What are you all doing? Jenna exclaimed.

Jenna looked at Sophie's ears, concemed. "How are your ears? I'll call a doctor to check."
"No need. It's just that her voice was too loud. I've got a bit of ringing in my ears again"
The slaps w were not light, and Sophie couldn't help but think of her past life.
If that dream was truly related to her death in a past life, then Nichole was the main culprit behind the death of her and her unborn child. Sophie's eyes darkened. If this was the case, she would not let Nichole off easily.
