She spoke calmly, without the slightest hint of guilt for betraying Thompson.
"My star path was laid out by you, but how I walk it is marked by my every step. I don't want my path ruined by your so-called smart but actually foolish actions. My father is still in prison, I have to think about him, and my own future too."
"So you betrayed me?"
Thompson looked at Sophia Green, her gaze cold with disappointment and a touch of heartache.
She had abandoned her own children, took care of her all these years, wholeheartedly paved the way for her, yet she still treated her this way.
Sophia Green sighed and said, "I've warned you, don't mess with Adam Jones, but you didn't listen."
"Mom, even if I didn't betray you, Adam Jones had already found out about you. What harms you is not me, but your own stupidity and greed."
"You..."
"Don't you have confidence that Adam Jones would let you off the hook because you are his biological mother? What are you afraid of now then?"
