Chapter: 1110
Galilea exhaled a sigh of relief. A glint of ruthlessness briefly flashed in her eyes. "If I knew Sabrina would stick her nose in and start investigating the case, I would have dealt with her ten years ago!"
By ‘dealt with her,’ Galilea meant to kill her.
The man on the phone was silent.
With a mocking smile, Galilea continued, “When your Blakely family adopted her, I bet you didn't see that coming.”
“It's me who proposed to my grandpa to adopt her," said Larry.
At first, Cesar just wanted to sponsor Sabrina to continue her education.
It was Larry who proposed the idea of adopting Sabrina into the Blakely family.
Cesar held a deep appreciation for Connor. When he got news of Connor's passing, Cesar was deeply saddened. He brought his eldest grandson to accompany him to the funeral of his dear friend.
By then, Larry only knew that one of Cesar's friends had passed away, so he went with him for support.
When he arrived at the funeral, he was stunned when he gazed at the enlarged picture of Connor.
It was an ordinary black-and-white picture, but Larry felt that the man in the photo was staring directly at him as if trying to communicate something.
When he glanced around and saw the grief on Cesar's and other people's faces, Larry also felt a sense of sorrow.
Among the mourners, Larry noticed Sabrina, a young and innocent girl of only 16 or 17 years old.
When Larry discovered that Connor was Sabrina's only family member, he felt sympathy for her and suggested Cesar adopt her.
Cesar agreed to the idea.
When Sabrina came to the Blakely family, Kira displayed indifference, treating Sabrina as if Sabrina were beneath her. In contrast, Larry showed kindness and gentleness toward her, much to Cesar's satisfaction.
At that time, Tyrone was dealing with his girlfriend's recent accident and the Loss of the company. He briefly showed up that night but was so preoccupied that he didn't take much notice of her. After that, he was absent from the house for a long time.
The smile on Galilea's face froze as she came to a realization. She asked in astonishment, "You feel sorry for her, don't you? No wonder you didn't kill her when she started the investigation."
How could Larry feel this way! If Sabrina was just an ordinary person, where did she get the funds and resources to investigate what happened in the past?
"I'm not as cruel and cold-hearted as you. As soon as you fear things might unravel, your first impulse is to end a life. You make taking a person's life sound so effortless."
