Chapter 1287
A chill ran down Eleanor’s spine as she listened, her skin going cold and her face draining of color. Mr.
Ben hadn’t revealed Bernard’s identity, but the latent threat was there.
Eleanor steadied herself, pulling her car over to the side of the road before turning to Robin. “You said
Area Opaca is using Bernard as bait to lure me into playing their game, right?”
Robin nodded, “What’s wrong?”
Eleanor slowly clenched her hands, “Bernard once told me that Mr. Ben and Sophie have a list of
members from the Siren Organization. Sophie and I had a personal feud before. Could she be the one
who’s trying to lure me in?”
Robin was aware of Sophie’s past with Bernard, “Remove the ‘could be’. She is the one trying to lure
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou in. Do you dare to go?”
Eleanor didn’t care about her own safety, only Bernard’s, “If Bernard is still alive, would Sophie use me
as a leverage against him?”
Robin pondered for a moment, shaking his head, “If Bernard is alive and hasn’t come back yet, he’s
already caught in the web. Regardless of whether you go or not, they can use you against Bernard. My
guess is that Sophie is luring you in to get revenge on you. Whether Bernard is dead or alive, she’s
betting that you’d go for him. That’s why you received the golden leaf.”
Eleanor understood. Sophie was targeting her. But how did Sophie get into Area Opaca? And how did
she connect with Mr. Ben? Bernard hadn’t told her any of these. Eleanor was still trying to piece
everything together. For now, she needed to make her decision.
Seeing her silence, Robin’spoke, “She hates you because you stole her fiancé. If you go, she’ll
definitely use Ace’s power to get rid of you. It’s best if you don’t go.” Eleanor gripped the steering wheel
tighter, “They were never engaged. There was no fiancé to steal. And didn’t you say that Area Opaca
doesn’t randomly kill?” Robin replied calmly, “It depends on Sophie’s rank in Ace and whether she has
the list of Siren Organization members. But according to Evan, Ace is a place of strict rules. The person
behind the scenes won’t allow any chaos. Unless you make a wrong choice during the game, she can’t
harm you. But Bernard might already be dead. Do you really want to take this risk for an unknown
outcome?”
Eleanor retorted, “What about you? You’ve seen Caleb’s remains, you know the truth about his death
from Evan, yet you’re still following me. Aren’t you also risking everything for the unknown?”
Robin’s eyes shifted, but he remained silent. Caleb was already dead, he knew that. But he wanted to
see it for himself, to tell Katharine the truth. Of course, a big part of it was because…
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRobin glanced at Eleanor’s face, his eyes unreadable. As he stayed silent, Eleanor’s soft voice filled
the car,” Bernard and I have been through so much together. We cherish each other deeply. Now, the
man I love has disappeared, and there are even reports of his death. I can’t just sit at home and do
nothing. I’ve been waiting for him for too long.”
“I’ve been waiting for him since I fell in love with him. At first, was waiting for him to tell me he loves me,
then to marry me, then to come home. Now, I have to wait to see if he’ll come back alive. Can I really
keep waiting? I’ve already waited for more than three months.”
Her tone was calm, but her words were filled with helplessness and a tinge of pain. Robin didn’t
respond. He simply tightened his grip on his hands resting on his lap.
“So, whether Sophie is trying to get at me or not, I’ll go. I believe Ace is a place of rules. I also believe
my luck will turn around. I’ve had enough bad luck in my life. If fate continues to be against me, then I’d
rather die where he is. Because this time, I don’t want to be left alone.”
