The Silent 637

637.Chapter 637

"You idiot! Trying to pull tricks right under my nose?" Sophie had already seen through Adeline's pathetic little stunt, but she didn't even bother to acknowledge it.

Her confidence in her mastery of parasites and poisons was unshakable.

She was certain that in all of Hasen City, no one but her could save Caleb.

That's why she didn't care about whatever schemes Adeline or Dale might come up with.

On the contrary, once they exhausted all their efforts and realized Caleb was beyond saving, their despair would make them even easier to manipulate.

Sophie wasn't the type to let things slide.

Letting them scheme was one thing, but letting them off without a price? Not a chance.

"Your parents messed up, so you'll be the one to pay for it," Sophie said coldly.

The moment her words landed, Caleb's frail body twisted in agony. His face contorted grotesquely, and he thrashed on the bed as though consumed by unbearable pain.

"Aaaaaaaah!” That day, Caleb's screams once again echoed through the Marquis's estate.

"Someone, get in here." After venting her fury on Caleb, Sophie wiped the blood off her hands with a handkerchief.

Her expression was one of disgust as she tossed the stained cloth onto Caleb's barely conscious face, then called out to the servants waiting outside.

"L-Lady Sophie, do you have any orders?"

The maid entered from outside, her head bowed so low she seemed afraid to even breathe. Standing at the doorway, trembling, she asked.
