Chapter 1568

Robert was visibly terrified, his face as white as a sheet and drenched in cold sweat. Even the tiniest sound made him jump out of his skin.

“Are you Robert?” Sophie asked as she stepped up to him.

Robert was so scared he could barely move. After a moment of stunned silence, he nodded frantically, “Yes, yes... no, I’m not... please, don’t kill me!

I’m begging you, don’t kill me!”

He was seconds away from losing control of his bladder.

Sophie glanced at her bodyguard, “Is there anyone else around?”

“Nope, it’s just him.”

Seeing the coast was clear, Sophie didn’t want to hang around any longer than necessary. Every second here felt like a risk.

“Take them all with us.”

“Got it.”

“Please, don’t kill me!” Robert pleaded, trembling like a leaf.

The Aldridge family’s bodyguards had never seen anyone so spineless. This guy looked ready to wet himself without them even lifting a finger.

Over at the Minton family estate, the bodyguards shoved both men to the ground. Sophie picked up a fruit knife from the table and slashed Spencer’s face.

His scream echoed through the estate, sharp and piercing.

Sophie frowned and nodded to a bodyguard, who stuffed a rag into Spencer’s mouth to muffle him.

Sophie tossed the fruit knife aside and said, “Alright, you first. Give me a quick intro, let’s hear it.”

“What...what kind of intro?” Robert stammered, bewildered.

Did they really need a background check before getting killed?

“Just do it, no need for dramatics,” the bodyguard urged.

Panicked, Robert blurted out, “I-I’m Robert, graduated from Summerfield University with an associate degree... passed my basic computer cert, and...”

“Enough,” Sophie cut him off, frowning. “Who asked for your resume?”

“Huh?” Robert was completely lost.

What was this about?

“I’m asking, is your father Elliott?”

“Yes, yes...”

“Is he dead?”

“I don’t know, I really don’t!” Robert exclaimed. He was as clueless as a deer in headlights. After being knocked out at home, he woke up to find himself facing Sophie. Everything else was a blank.

Sophie nodded, turning her attention to Spencer, whose pain seemed to have eased a bit. “Remove the rag. I’ve got questions.”

“On it.” The bodyguard pulled the rag from Spencer’s mouth.

With his face bloodied, Sophie remarked, “Don’t think I’m heartless. It’s just to make it clear who’s who. You had such a handsome face, if you’re going to mess with it, at least make it look better, not worse.”

Robert blinked in confusion.

Was she saying he was ugly?

Sophie ignored the awkward moment and continued, “How’s The Silent Shadows planning to throw me off through you? Just spill. It’ll save everyone’s time.”

Spencer’s face went pale, distressed. “I could never betray The Silent Shadows! Just kill me!”

“I’m not here to kill you. Why would I?” Sophie propped her chin, a smile playing on her lips. “But if you don’t talk, I might just have to kill him instead.

How’s that sound?”

Robert’s expression changed instantly, panic setting in. “Why me? I’m the victim here! I have nothing to do with this!”
