Just then, Sophia had completely given up struggling and answered all questions, "It's because Daniel Cooper found out about my plot to kill Olivia White years ago, but he had no evidence. So, he investigated Benjamin White's background and told Gabriel White. Then, Gabriel used Benjamin's story to threaten me and force me to turn myself in."
By the end, her tone had a bit of a grind-your-teeth flavor, "He promised me that as long as I turn myself, he would keep his mouth shut and not reveal Benjamin's background ... I made the mistake of trusting him."
Amelia's furrowed eyebrows relaxed slightly, not taking her bait, and continued to ask, "So, Daniel doesn't know about your part in Mrs. Cooper's death?"
"Right, he doesn't know, and I only confessed to the police about killing Olivia White."
Amelia breathed a sigh of relief, "Then just keep your mouth shut and never mention it again."
