Chương 416: Leland's Sadness

Eloise spoke so calmly. "They've been dead for a long time."

"Are you trying to play me?" Leland stared at Eloise coldly. Even though he already suspected that Anne and Jack were truly dead, this confirmation still broke his heart.

"You haven't changed at all, have you? Always quick to anger." Eloise smiled more broadly. Then she continued her words, "They are indeed dead but they actually died a few weeks after the massacre in the forest which made Sophie think that it was her parents who died and were buried by the villagers."

Leland was stunned to hear that. So... The bodies found by the villagers back then were truly not Sophie's parents? How... ? How did Jack and Anne leave Sophie for weeks and then died?

"Do you know... what happened?" Leland asked Eloise with a hoarse voice.

"I do," Eloise replied. "The person responsible for their deaths is Isolde. Your mother."
