Chapter 1397

Eleanor watched the scene unfold before her and felt an overwhelming sense of pity for Sophie. Her life was a tragedy wrapped in a series of fatal missteps: first, she had inadvertently caused the death of Dominic, the man who loved her, then she failed to cherish Mr. Ben; and finally, she had directly caused the death of her own father, the only man who truly cared for her.

Sophie had been living a charmed life. If only she had been a bit kinder, she could have been the happiest woman in the world. But she was fixated on things she could get, and ultimately, she ended up losing everything.

If Sophie had only realized this, she wouldn’t have been so twisted to the extent of blaming Eleanor for all her woes. It was her stubborn fixation on her desires that had led to her downfall.

But what she couldn’t fathom was why Yates had broken his promise. She wasn’t foolish; she knew there had to be a reason. It hit her in a moment of quiet reflection.

Yates had set terms with them, stating that as long as they didn’t mention anything about Bernard in front of Eleanor, he would spare their lives. His true intention was to calm the waters, to keep them from spilling secrets that could turn Eleanor against him.

Once they complied, Yates tampered with the game, providing them with clues to navigate the first six rounds successfully. They let their guards down, and that’s when he struck.

Yates wanted to kill them, and Sophie surmised it must be because of the way Cameron had treated his daughter and granddaughter. He was never going to let them live.

Fully understanding Yates’ motives, Sophie realized she was marked for death as well.
