Chapter 1336
Sheldon’s eyes hadn’t yet revealed anything when he was yanked back by an incredulous Sophie, “Dad, is what he’s saying true?”
At this point, Cameron had no choice but to admit, “She was my first wife’s daughter.”
Sophie, who knew Cameron had been previously married, felt a tightness in her chest. It seemed that she hadn’t expected that Eleanor, the conniving woman, was her half-sister.
But she had seen with her own eyes how Cameron had pushed Eleanor and her mother off a cruise ship when she was a child. They should have died! How could they still be alive?
“Dad, you didn’t kill them off back then, did you?”
Compared to Sophie, who was knocked sideways by the shocking news, Cameron was much more reasonable, “Sophie, go outside. I’ll explain everything later.”
1-1 seemed to have a different view of Eleanor. It would be better to leave and discuss this elsewhere before any old skeletons are dug up.
Sophie, however, was beyond reasoning. She pushed Cameron away, “Get away from me!”
After pushing Cameron, she grabbed the edge of the table, struggling to pull herself up from the ground.
In her disappointment, she glanced at Cameron before turning around to look for a weapon.
Eventually, she rushed over to Sheldon, snatching the gun from his waist and pointing it straight at Cameron’s chest, “Dad, I never thought that you, who always claimed to love Mom the most, not only didn’t kill Eleanor and her mother, but also brought Eleanor into the company to torment me!”
“I didn’t…”
“You didn’t?” Sophie cut Cameron off sharply before he could finish his sentence.
“Then how would Eleanor have grown up and worked in our company? You must have been playing a show in front of me and Mom, pretending to push them off the cruise ship, then having someone save them and secretly raising them! Mom and I were deceived by you for so many years, and I only found out the truth today. It’s absolutely disappointing!”

Sophie was fuming. Cameron could only hope that she wouldn’t pull the trigger. Sophie, however, didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger.
“You spared her because of your father-daughter relationship, ruining my plans. Then… die!”
Just as the bullet left the chamber, Sheldon raised his foot and kicked Sophie away, swiftly retrieving his gun.
“Damn, my gun was almost dirtied by this evil woman.”
Sheldon cleaned the gun with his own clothes.
Sophie, who had lost all reason, rushed over to fight Sheldon. Sheldon raised his foot again and kicked Sophie to the ground, “You even want to kill your own father, you shouldn’t live either!”
Sheldon was about to pull the trigger and shoot Sophie when 1-1 stopped him, “Spare her for now.”
Sheldon was confused. Just now, 1-1 had clearly wanted to kill Sophie. Why the sudden change of heart?
“Lock her up. We’ll decide what to do with her later.”
While rubbing his foot on the carpet, Sheldon pointed his chin towards Cameron, who was still standing dumbfounded, “What about him?”
“Lock him up too.”
After 1-1 gave the order, Sophie and Cameron were dragged away.
As Sophie was being dragged away, she kept shouting about her contributions to Area Opaca, demanding that 1-1 to consider her contribution.
With one glare from 1-1, the man in black holding her raised his hand and struck her on the back of the neck.
Sophie’s eyes rolled back and she passed out. This time, Cameron didn’t show any sympathy. He just turned his head away in disappointment.
After Sophie and Cameron were taken away, 1-1 looked at Sheldon with his aged eyes.
“Everyone else out. Sheldon, stay.”
Sheldon, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He turned around, looking at 1-1 through the crowd of people gradually leaving the control room.

The readers' comments on the novel: A Second Chance At Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)
Loved the story, many times caught in so much actually crying with the situation. Wish had more chapters to a better ending....
It's weird that the story went from narrative to slang use. Good story so far though...
