The Reckoning of Love Chapter 51
Chapter 51 Silence Speaks Louder Than Words
Gavily thought he misheard “What happened to whom?
A reped in borret Someone posted about Blare Gallegos crimes-murder, arson, and all. Now, the cogs are going around arresting people! Mr. Quinlan, what should we do? Blaze wouldn’t- Gavin kicked him before he could sh his words. Only then did the man come back to his senses. People from the company were in the room, so he quickly shut ups
Quinlan, that’s enough Sophia uttered calmly. She was not in the mood to watch these men act
Gavin tumed his head to look at her How could Blares affairs get exposed at this exact time? Could it be… Miss Yancey is this your doing” he asked, almost hesitantly
She shrugged nonchalantly. Who knows, maybe the heavens have eyes and decided to punish the wicked I don’t know if the cops caught anyone yet. Whatever you said earlier, I want the people around Blaze to confirm that accusation
Gavin stood there, mouth agape. The beads of sweat on his forehead dripped down his face in the cold autumn air. He knew well that he could not run away if Blaze was caught
This vicious wetman had already figured everything out and secretly compiled everything together while they were busy dreaming about extorting hundreds of millions of dollars. She probably had all the traps ser up discreetly? Moreover, there was no room to escape once her traps were set. The things Blaze commined were already made public on the Internet. No matter how strong his connections were, he could not escape the death penalty
Even if Gavin ousted Blaze, his fate would not be better. Maybe…
“Miss Yancey! Please, my son is still young. He’s innocent!” He gritted his teeth and begged, “Let the child go, and I’ll surrender myself?
Sophia instantly knew she had the upper hand. “Mr. Quinlan, don’t worry about that. Let’s talk this out.” She motioned him to sit down
Gavin’s legs seemed to have turned into jelly. He had already confessed and said he would surrender, so what else did she want to do? But… His son was in someone else’s hands, so he could only listen. Once he sat down, she took a notebook and a pen from her bag and then pushed them toward him
“When I was young, my grandfather told me rats don’t show up alone,” she said gently and kindly “I don’t want to waste my time playing detective, so I’ll have to trouble you to write down each of their names”
He was startled “Miss Yancey, I don’t know anything else-
Before he could finish his sentence, Sophia placed the pen down with a slight slam: no other words were aid. However, he still felt a strong sense of threat and oppression. “Mr. Ulmer, do you have a seven or eight-year-old | kid in your family?” she asked suddenly, turning to Thomas
He stared at her stunned. She had directed her attention to him so suddenly that his heart started racing He coughed lightly to hide his panic, then forced himself to answer casually. I have two little nephews around the same age
She replied casually, “Then, do you know that such a child is extremely fragile? If they’re not careful they’ll easily choke to death when they eat or drink”
Gavin stood up in a panic and exclaimed, “Miss Yancey
Silence Speaks Louder Than Words
She turned to look at him again, this time with puzzled eyes. “What’s wrong, Mr. Quinlan? I’m just chatting with Mr. Ulmer. You don’t have to worry about us.”
The man’s eyes were bulging at this point. “I can’t believe this. You’re so pretty, yet you have the heart and mind of a viper! Gavin completely dropped his facade and niceties. “Sophia Yancey, if you dare to harm my son, I will never let you go!”
Instead of replying. Sophia leaned on the chair and stared at him wordlessly. At that point, Gavin was terrified by this woman’s presence.
