Chapter 1382
"Why can't we just start over? Why!" Joseph's eyes were bloodshot with frustration. He was desperate to understand why things had turned out this way.
"Because you've used up all your chances." Gordon's voice cut through the air, reaching Joseph's ears.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
James turned around, spotting Sophie pushing Gordon into the room. The moment Joseph saw Gordon, he snapped, "It was you! You've been the one sabotaging me all these years! You Aldridges are all a curse!" Sophie couldn't help but glance at Gordon, puzzled. Had Gordon really been battling Joseph all this time?
Gordon spoke calmly, "These four gems indeed have miraculous powers, but... all four chances are gone. Thinking you could find this place and hit the reset button was just ridiculous."
"Why? What do you mean all four chances are used up?" Sophie was visibly puzzled.
Four chances? One for her, two for Joseph, and then... who got the last one? She looked at Gordon, a strange suspicion creeping in.
The final chance... was it Gordon?
"No way... No way!" Joseph glared at Gordon, seething with anger. "You're just spinning lies! You don't want to reset things, so you made this up! I don't believe you!"
"The first time, you used the Burke family's sapphire ring to be reborn. That ring... it belonged to the Tredgold family."
Sophie was shocked. "The Tredgold family? How does that make sense?"
Gordon didn't bother explaining and continued, "Second time around, just like in this life, you orchestrated Colby's parents' car accident and stole Mrs. Costello's ring. You teamed up with the Minton family to ruin the Russells, leading to Sophie's parents' deaths. Even though the Russells' sapphire ended up
overseas, you were sure you'd track it down."
"Everything was going to plan until I unexpectedly died, and Harold took over the Aldridge family. He was a tough nut to crack. Plus, with Sophie's death, James took his own life, throwing your plans off course. In that past life, no one could uncover the Devonport treasure's secrets, forcing you to use Mrs. Costello's sapphire ring to start over."
Joseph's face turned pale, knowing full well the truth. The last two chances were connected to Gordon and Sophie!
Sophie, noticing Joseph's reaction, quickly asked, "What about me? Why did I get a second chance? I've never even seen a blue sapphire ring!" Sophie was eager for answers, but Gordon stayed silent.
Gordon simply stated, "Joseph, all your scheming was nothing more than a pipe dream, totally pointless."
"You all lied to me... all of you!" Joseph shouted. "There must be something hidden! There has to be!"
Joseph frantically searched the
room, but Gordon showed no fear of him finding anything. Sophie watched Joseph's frenzy quietly and then turned to Gordon. "Mr. Gordon,
what else are you keeping from me?"
Gordon didn't respond. He couldn't bring himself to tell Sophie that her rebirth was due to his last wish before dying in their previous life.
