Chapter 1201 Relic in Hands

When Sonia heard Toby say that the matter was being solved, she nodded while being at ease. “That’s good to hear,” she said.

At this moment, Toby squinted his eyes and commented, “We have been guessing it wrong all along.” “Huh?” Sonia was confused when she heard his words. Hence, she asked, “Which guess was it?”

“The relic,” he replied as he pursed his lips. “In the beginning, we thought Connor was talking about photos or videos as relics. However, after I met him in the afternoon and heard what he had to say, it seemed that the relic wasn’t what we expected it to be. It’s actually something else.”

Hearing his words, she sat straight up in shock and exclaimed, “Something else? Can you be specific?”

However, Toby shook his head and admitted, “I don’t know since Connor did not reveal it. However, one thing we know for sure is that it isn’t anything we’ve guessed.”

“It’s better that way.” Sonia leaned back against her seat as she spoke. “If it isn’t those things, we won’t have to worry about the possibility of it being exposed.”

Listening to her words, he hummed in agreement and said, “Despite that, it still makes me upset because I feel like I was being tricked.”

Toby had a point, though. After all, he and Sonia had no choice but to accept Connor’s condition, which was to release Anya, as they thought it was some kind of photo or video. However, since they had discovered it wasn’t, it would be an unfair treaty for them if they released Anya. Thus, it was true to say that Connor had tricked them.

As Sonia thought about it, she sighed and said, “It is indeed upsetting how Connor used our care to protect your mom’s reputation. After all, we would have seen through his lies rather than being lured into thinking such things by him if it weren’t for it.”

“That’s why I’m going to remember this and make him pay the price later on,” he said sinisterly as his face was grim.
