At this point, Colby paused, his eyes drifting to Sophie before he finally said, "Actually... with your Uncle Perry''s abilities back then, there was no way he could have orchestrated that car ident wlessly. It was all a setup by the Minton family, and Uncle Perry took the fall,pletely innocent."


    "What?"


    "The one who lured Uncle Perry into the trap was Jensen, the former head of the Mintons. The Minton family had been working with K Corporation for over twenty years. That time, Odie used this secret to get himself out of the police station." "You didn''t tell me back then."


    "I was just afraid it would break your heart."


    Hearing this, Sophie felt a sharp pain in her chest.


    So it was true.


    The car ident that killed her parents wasn''t as simple as it seemed.


    "You weren''t afraid of breaking my heart; you were worried I''d lose my mind and obsess over finding out who killed my parents... just like you''re doing now."


    Today, wasn''t Colby pushing himself to find his parents'' murderer?


    Over the years, only Colby knew the pain he carried.


    Sophie said, "Don''t worry, with you by my side, even if I find out there was someone else involved, I won''t do anything reckless."

    Timothy, who had been polishing dishes in the living room, froze, and both Jenna and Adler were stunned.


    "How is that possible?!"


    "Wasn''t Odie fine during the day? How could something suddenly happen?" Jenna eximed.


    "The injuries took a turn for the worse, I know it''s sudden... previously, Odie being able to get out of bed was just a flicker of life before death!"


    When William, a doctor, said these words, he almost chuckled.


    But seeing Jenna and Adler in front of him, William held back hisughter.


    Adler, realizing, said, “That exins how he had the strength to wieldza knife after such severe injuries. It''s true what the elders say! People really do have a burst of energy before they die!" en FindNovel

    confusion, William sighed, "It''s Odie. He''s not going to make it, probably in the next couple of days.
