Chapter 674

Cooper’s fury turned into guilt. He’d begged his parents to keep Sophia, convinced she could be the sister he always wanted. But she wasn’t a sister—she was a killer.

“Get out! I never want to see you again!” he yelled.

Sophia reached for his sleeve, but he shoved her away. She fell hard, her cries echoing.

Aunt Wang returned just then, holding a cake, and froze at the sight. “Stop pretending!” Cooper yelled. “You tried to poison my sister and think I’ll feel sorry for you?”

Aunt Wang’s jaw dropped. Poison? That word didn’t fit the sweet girl barely up to her waist. Then it hit her—Sophia’s sudden obsession with desserts. “You didn’t care about cake,” Aunt Wang said, her voice trembling. “You just wanted me out of the room. I thought you just had a sweet tooth!”

Cold sweat broke out on her skin. If Norah hadn’t caught her, Aunt Wang would still be clueless—baking treats for a child plotting murder.
