Sean looked as though he did not hear her; instead, he continued cutting the rope in silence.

The police siren was getting closer, and it sounded urgent, but Sean did not leave. Sophia knew that the enemy had set this trap, and Sean had murdered somebody for her. Therefore, she did not want to drag him into the situation. She advised him hastily, “Sean, you need to listen to me. You have to leave right now. I know how to handle the situation!”

Nevertheless, Sean obviously did not listen to her because he continued cutting the rope seriously. The damn rope wouldn’t cut through; he won’t be able to leave if he delays any longer.

Sophia was panicking, and so she urged him. “The enemy is trying to destroy the alliance between my father and the Fletcher Family. If I had killed Irene, it would be more of a personal grudge, but since you did it, it would mean that the Mitchells killed her, because there was no bad blood between you and Irene. Therefore, the enemy would have a reason to spread rumors.”

Sean recollected himself, and he had already considered the consequences after killing Irene. She was the descendent of a late hero and the apple of the Fletchers’ eye. Killing her meant that I would be in trouble, and the Mitchells, whom Cooper represents, would suffer too. In that case, I can’t let Sophia take the hit for me.

Sophia was furious because Sean wouldn’t be able to escape if he refused to leave right now. Cooper would get me out of this if I get in trouble. Besides, I’d been kidnapped, and Irene tried to burn me to death. Hence, killing Irene would have been self-defense. On the other hand, Sean killing her would be considered as voluntary manslaughter.

With that, Sophia snatched the knife from Sean’s hand to press it against her throat.

“Are you leaving or not? I’ll kill myself if you refuse to leave right now!”

Nevertheless, Sean refused to leave, and so Sophia slapped him across his face while yelling at him, “Leave! I’m asking you to leave! Get lost! I don’t want to see you! Leave!”

Sean’s eyes were brimming with tears. In the end, he gritted his teeth while turning around to escape from the scene.

 

While watching Sean disappear through the basement door, Sophia wiped away his fingerprints from the knife in a hurry.

After that, she felt exhausted, and so she slackened her body. However, the rope tied tightly around her body suffocated her, leaving her out of breath. Hence, she was still breathing heavily.

 

The basement was humid and cold, but it was also filled with the scent of blood. Sophia gasped for air, but she was overwhelmed by the metallic stench that was nauseating.

Irene was slumped dead on the ground in front of Sophia. Her body was covered with blood, which was pooling across the floor. In fact, the blood was seeping through the bottom of Sophia’s feet, but she could only sit in Irene’s blood since she had been rendered motionless.

At that moment, Sophia’s tense body finally relaxed. It was then when she felt pain all over her body. There was blood on her hands, and her nosebleed was trickling down the corner of her lips.
