The Silent 280

280.Chapter 280

Benedict's words infuriated Sophie so much that she planned to kill her eldest brother. Her fingernails dug into her palms, so the latter bled.

She tried her best to replace the anger on her face with sadness. "Benedict..." she sobbed. "I... I know. I know that Eliza is kind and not as evil as others say. That is why I gave many persuasions to the other brothers.

"Later, my true identity got exposed. I have my pride, Benedict. I know my place under this roof, so those bad things resulted from a fit of anger. Benedict, what should I do to regain your trust?"

"Nothing, after your men dug my mother's grave. You may say they acted on their own, but I don't think so." Benedict expressionlessly looked at Sophie.

He went on, "Sophie, I don't regret my previous indulgence of you. My real regret is that I hurt my little sister for your sake. Don't come here again." After the speech, he was inclined to close the door.

"Benedict, wait!" Sophie shouted. With grief, she pleaded, "I know that I broke your heart. I shouldn't come here to disturb you. However, regret gets me whenever I recall our good old days.

"I brought you some flowers. I can't come to see you anymore, so let these flowers keep your company, okay?" Benedict's gaze lingered on Sophie's face.

Never had Benedict imagined such an awful relationship with his two sisters. He had once doted on Eliza and Sophie. Now, Eliza was a nun, and he didn't want to see Sophie anymore.

Benedict took the two pots of flowers, handed them to his attendant, and blandly said to Sophie, "Go. Don't come again." Bang! The doorwas slammed shut.
