Chapter 524 Why Are You Sorry

Sophia's words were so spine-chilling that the conceited Delilah could only tighten her grip on the gifts she brought, not daring to knock on Sophia's door anymore.

She knew that Sophia was not Zoey and that Sophia felt nothing toward her. Otherwise, Rupert would not be in jail.

If Sophia said that she was going to let Jasper rot in jail, then that was exactly what she would do.

Alas, Delilah did not know who else to seek help from besides Sophia.

In her seventy and more years of living, no one in the village had ever dared to cross her. Hence, she lived the life of a tyrant there, thoroughly enjoying her days. It was comfortable, anyway, and she did not mind living a simpler life.

However, Delilah also knew that Jasper's issue was not something she could solve but throwing a tantrum now that she was out of the village.

Jasper had hijacked and robbed Sophia and the others close to a hundred thousand. Moreover, the people he had robbed were retired soldiers. The situation was terrible. In fact, the officer told her that the police would not release Jasper even if she were to wait outside the station every day. However, Jasper might receive a lighter sentence if she were to get Sophia and the others' forgiveness and provide financial compensation.

Delilah knew that she would not get Sophia's forgiveness even before she came to the latter's house. Things were unsalvageable between them, after all, but Delilah still felt helpless when Sophia rejected her. She only recomposed herself enough to leave after a while of standing by the doorway.

She did not want to leave, but what Sophia told her before closing the door frightened her.

By the time the others were done packing, it was after ten. A moment of rest later, they went out of the house.

There was no one outside of the house, so Sophia thought that Delilah was gone.

However, when they walked out of the lobby, Sophia spotted Delilah eating eggs near the flowerbed.

Delilah had clearly spotted Sophia as well, for she raised her brows. However, something seemed to cross her mind, and she turned to the side guiltily, curling into herself as if she was afraid they would see her.

Sophia only gave her a brief glance before looking away and continuing to make her way to the car.
