She’s the most scheming person in the Thompson Clan!

“Sophie Cooper, how dare you still come to see me?” Edward Thompson turned around to look at Sylvia Thompson.

Now he felt that Sylvia didn’t deserve the name Thompson.

She has completely tarnished this surname ‘Thompson’.

Sophie Cooper would forever just be Sophie Cooper!

Sylvia pleaded through her tears, “Brother, do you not accept me as your sister anymore? I don’t understand why things between us have become like this. I know you would never kill someone, but I don’t understand why you’re lying? I was with TongTong the night you keep saying you saw me, why do you insist that you saw me then?”

Edward Thompson just stared at Sylvia, with a look of disgust on his face. “Sophie Cooper, don’t you find yourself disgusting?”

“Brother, will you please believe me?” Sylvia looked at Edward Thompson, “It’s Viola Thompson, it has to be her. It’s Viola Thompson who’s driving a wedge between our sibling relationship…”

Sylvia knew Edward well.

They’d grown up together, and their bond as siblings was strong. As long as she was the one speaking, Edward would believe her unconditionally.

After all, they had so many years of affection between them. That’s also why Edward was willing to sever his ties with the Thompson Clan and Viola for her sake.

Even though Viola was Edward’s blood-related sister, there was no substantial sibling affection between them. To Edward, Viola was no different from a producer.

So.

No matter what she said, Edward would believe her!

Thinking of this, Sylvia whispered, “Brother, listen to me. Viola Thompson is far more capable than we thought. I suspect she knows hypnotism. It’s very possible that she hypnotised you, which is why you confused her with me!”

As she spoke, Sylvia’s voice was choked with sobs, “Brother, we’ve grown up together since we were kids. I remember when we were young, anytime we had something good to eat, you would always let me eat first. If there was only one piece of it, you would rather starve than not leave it for me! In my heart, you will always be the best brother, how could I possibly harm you? Brother, I really didn’t, please believe me!”

With Sylvia’s experience, the more desperate her crying, the more whole-heartedly Edward will believe her.

“What time is it, and you’re still pushing the responsibility onto Viola Thompson? I’ve made a mistake once before, I disowned my own sister for the likes of you, and what did I get in return? Being framed and thrown in jail! I admit it, this is my retribution—retribution for everything I’ve done!”

Edward paused then continued, “But Sophie Cooper, do you think there are no divine powers watching us? You could even kill your own father, there can’t possibly be a good ending for you! I’ve received my retribution; yours is not far off!”

Sylvia stared wide-eyed at Edward Thompson.

She never expected him to say something like this to her.

This…

Was this really Edward Thompson, the man she knew?

Sylvia felt a cold chill within her.

What a joke.

It was all fake. Whatever Edward said in the past, no matter what happened, as her brother, he had always accepted and believed in her unconditionally.

But now!

When he was truly cornered, his true nature surfaced.

No one was ever truly accepting of someone else!

Never!

As Sylvia was still processing the shock, Edward stared at Sylvia, and continued, “It’s almost time! Sophie Cooper, you’ll soon pay the price for your actions!”

“Brother….”

Her face was covered in tears.

Psychologically speaking, tears are a woman’s most powerful weapon.

Especially in front of men.

So, in the past, whenever Sylvia faced any problems, her immediate response was to well up in tears, and Edward always fell for it.

In Edward’s view, tears were a woman’s most valuable possession. Who would cry for no reason unless they were truly wronged?

But this time…

Sylvia’s tears lost their effect.

Edward continued, “Stop calling me ‘brother’. I’m Thompson, and you’re Cooper. You’re Sophie Cooper. There’s no relation between us whatsoever. My only sister will always, only ever be Viola Thompson!”

“But Viola Thompson doesn’t want you anymore, she has already severed ties with you!” Sylvia was the only one who still acknowledged Edward as her brother!

“So what? In my heart, she will always be my sister. And you, you’ll always be an illegitimate child who can never be acknowledged!”
