As evening approached, Sophie felt a sense of urgency. She needed to inform her parents about Leo and the recent developments. She decided to take a brief holiday, using it as a cover to continue her investigation and communicate with her family without raising suspicion.
She approached Leo, who was sitting in the living room, still deep in thought.
Sophie: "Leo, I've been thinking. I need to take a short holiday to clear my head. There's a lot going on, and I believe a break will help."
Leo looked at her, trying to gauge her intentions. He nodded slowly,
Leo: "Alright, Sophie. Take the time you need. Just...
Sophie gave him a reassuring smile, though her mind was already focused on her mission. She knew she had to balance her desire for revenge with the need for caution and careful planning.
As Sophie prepared to leave for her holiday, Leo decided to take matters into his own hands. He couldn't shake off the feeling that Sophie was hiding something important. Determined to uncover the truth, he decided to secretly follow her.
Sophie, unaware of Leo's intentions, packed her bags and left the mansion. She headed towards the train station, planning to reach her parents and discuss everything that had happened.
Leo kept his distance, making sure not to be seen. He watched her every move, trying to piece together her plans.
Leo: (thinking) "What are you up to, Sophie? What are you hiding?"
As the train departed, Leo boarded a different carriage, ensuring he stayed out of sight. He knew this journey would reveal the secrets Sophie was keeping, and he was determined to find out the truth, no matter what it took.
Sophie arrived at her parents' house, feeling a mix of relief and determination. She needed to discuss everything with them and figure out the next steps. As she entered the house, she was greeted by her father, Mr. Morales.
Mr. Morales: "Sophie, it's good to see you. What brings you here?"
Before Sophie could respond, Leo, who had been secretly following her, caught sight of Mr. Morales. His eyes widened in shock as memories flooded back—memories of the night his mother and sister were killed.
Leo: (thinking) "Mr. Morales... He's the one who killed my family."
Sophie handed over a folder containing details about Leo to her father, Mr. Morales. She felt a mix of determination and apprehension as she watched her father review the information.
Sophie: "Here are the details of Leo. We need to be prepared for whatever comes next."
Meanwhile, Leo, who had been observing from a distance, felt a sharp pang of betrayal. He had trusted Sophie, even allowed himself to be vulnerable around her, only to discover that she was working against him.
Leo: (thinking) "I can't believe she betrayed me... after everything. How could she?"
Leo stumbled back to his car, his mind reeling from the betrayal he had just witnessed. His voice shook as he spoke to his driver.
Leo: "Drop me... drop me at the mansion."
The driver, sensing the turmoil in Leo's voice, nodded silently and started the car. Leo leaned back in his seat, trying to process the overwhelming emotions that threatened to consume him.
As the car made its way to the mansion, Leo's thoughts were a chaotic mix of anger, sadness, and confusion. He had trusted Sophie, allowed her into his life, only to be blindsided by her deceit. The memory of his family's death and the realization that Sophie was working with Mr. Morales only intensified his pain.
