Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 1567

"How did he die?"

"He was killed by The Silent Shadows!" Robert's voice trembled with anger as he spoke, his eyes blazing with indignation.

Sophie arched an eyebrow, curiosity piqued. "And why would The Silent Shadows want him dead?"

"Because my father refused to get tangled up in their dirty dealings," Robert replied, wiping away a tear. He looked Sophie square in the eyes. "Sophie, I know they've got their eyes on you too. If you help me avenge my father, I'll do whatever you need."

"Alright," Sophie agreed instantly, her smile growing wider. But as Robert began to relax, she suddenly whipped out a pistol from her coat, aiming it straight at him. "Too bad, I don't believe a word you're saying."

Robert was caught completely off guard, his eyes widening in shock. Before he could react, Sophie had already pinned him to the ground, his hands restrained.

Sophie leaned in close, tapping his cheek with the gun barrel. "Did I play the naive, sweet girl a little too well? Did you really think I'd fall for your act, sending someone like you to fool me?"

Robert's face tightened with tension. "I'm not with The Silent Shadows! You're mistaken!"

"If I chose Elliott, you better believe I dug into his past. He's been dealing in organ trading on the dark web and has been in shady business with the Summerfield Mintons forever. And you're telling me he wanted to stay clean from The Silent Shadows? Are you kidding me?"

Sophie pressed the gun's muzzle under Robert's chin, forcing him to meet her gaze. "And don't think for a second I wouldn't recognize you because of some plastic surgery. I remember your eyes, Spencer. We've crossed paths before. Have you forgotten? It was at the For Peace nightclub, back when you were just an innocent high school kid."
