Chapter 1370
Seeing Sandy unwilling to accept the truth, Adler decided to keep quiet. After all, this was just one of Caelum's
little tricks to soothe his daughter. They weren't easily fooled. Kiran must have gotten twisted by the pressure of
living under the Pollard family's thumb, giving
birth to Angelo's personality.
As Sandy shared her story, Sophie couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. If Kiran was the main
personality, how did that car accident claim Kiran's life? The Pollard family kept things hush-hush about it,
leaving everyone wondering what secrets they were hiding.

"He just got greedy, aiming to escape to where the treasure is, right?" Adler interjected, finishing Sandy's

"I can talk to my brother! He listens to me; he won't go against you!" Sandy pleaded, looking desperate.
Sophie shook her head. "It's not that simple. Kiran firing that shot means he's drawn a line. Sandy, I'll arrange for
you to fly back overseas. It's best you go back now. With Caelum looking after you, you'll be safe from
Devonport's current mess."
"But I..."
"Mr. Adler, could you handle booking her flight, please?" Sophie didn't give Sandy room to argue.
Adler was already on his phone, arranging Sandy's flight. Seeing everyone pull away from her, Sandy felt a pang
of sadness. She'd never had a genuine friend growing up. She thought Vanessa cared, but it turned out to be

Burke Estate was different. People here weren't together for profit. They might say it was about gain, but deep
down, they were true friends. It was only at Burke Estate that Sandy experienced the kind of friendship most
people take for granted.
Sandy didn't want to lose these
friends so easily. Back in her room, watching the maid pack her suitcase made her heart ache. No! She
couldn't just walk away like this new
After all the tat Burke Estate, and all the times Sophie had saved her, it was her turn to step up and protect
