Chapter 1570

Robert was going on and on, but Sophie cut him off: "I really don't care why he got plastic surgery. What I want to know is, how did you know I was coming to see you tonight?" Robert, looking a bit sheepish, replied, "A beautiful lady told us."

"A beautiful lady?"

"Yeah, she said you'd be stopping by tonight, so she gave us a chance to serve our cause. That's why Spencer came up with this plan. It was a backup-if you believed Spencer, he'd go through with the mission. If you didn't, then it would be up to me. Spencer would sacrifice himself to protect my identity, making you trust me. Once I got close to you, I might snag what our leader wants."

"That's quite a simple plan," Sophie remarked. "But you killed your own father for it?"

"It wasn't me! I swear!"

Robert waved his hands frantically. "My dad never really cared about me. I grew up with my mom and grandparents. After my mom passed, it didn't matter to me whether he was around or not, but he was still my dad. When I got back today, Spencer had already killed him and said... that since there was a sacrifice, we had to see the mission through. I was so confused, I just went along with it...'"
