Suddenly, Sylvester's calm gaze wavered. His eyes narrowed slightly as if he was hiding several sharp weapons behind them.
Seeing this sudden change in expression, Theo protected me behind him. "You didn't read the contents inside?”
The corners of his mouth were in a slight hook, and he looked up again with deep resentment in his deep eyes. "I had planned on giving you the chance to leave at first, but it's a pity the old fox Silas never believed me even up till his death.”
The evil aura emanating from Sylvester's body made my spine chill, especially the moment he mentioned Silas'name. It felt like demons had emerged from hell. It was suffocating.
My mind suddenly crackled like a movie as it replayed a plot from the past. I could not help but ask, "Did Silas really go abroad?"
Sylvester likely did not expect this as shock filled his gaze that was on me. He immediately smiled a second later. "You’re quite smart."
He confirmed my thoughts.
Silas never left the country.
“You killed him.” Theo was able to guess it as well. His statement was resolute, decisive.
Sylvester’s knitted brows immediately unfurrowed. "Yes, I did.” He did not deny it.
I knew he hated Silas, but I never expected him to kill him.
"Was this your plan since the beginning?”
Silas had nurtured him ever since he was young, after all. Did he not feel an ounce of gratitude?
