"Do you not want to know how Mr. Weldon met his untimely demise years ago?"

At those words, Booker whirled around. "What do you mean by that?"

"Weldon's death. They said it was a sudden heart attack, but as far as I know, he was killed by his own son, Ricardo."

Booker scoffed at Sophie's absurd claims and said, "Ridiculous! Mr. Ricardo is Weldon's biological son. How could he possibly kill his own father!"

"You refuse to acknowledge it because you are fatherless, so you revered Weldon as if he was your own father. But now, the truth is right before us. Weldon was killed by Ricardo because Weldon wanted to acknowledge his illegitimate son. To protect his own status... Ricardo deliberately infuriated his father to death!"

Sophie's words weren't baseless rumors, but hints revealed in newspapers from the past.

Initially, due to Ricardo and Rowena's tragic love story, Ricardo's image as a devoted lover was highly popular. However, some tabloids dug into Ricardo's past, including the matter of his brother, the illegitimate son, which she had the chance to read. The report, written convincingly, revealed Ricardo ascended to power by killing his own father, including testimonies and physical evidence to support the claim.

But soon, that report vanished, and the publishing newspaper disappeared as well.

If nothing was wrong with that report, why would Ricardo go to great lengths to suppress it, even to the extent of paying to silence the newspaper?

Later, when she was dealing with Ricardo, she specifically investigated the truth of the matter and indeed found clues.
