Chapter 345 The Truth Revealed Sophia just didn't want Tiffany to disrupt her peaceful life for her sake.
But now, the only person capable of investigating the events from years ago was Tiffany.
Tiffany's information network was unlike anyone else's, allowing her to pinpoint any detail with precision.
Steven had tried to investigate before, but he cup empty-handed, which was why they needed Tiffany's help.
Tiffany knew Sophia had reservations, so she smiled and patted Sophia's shoulder.
"It's okay. No matter what, I have to help you figure this out. I need everyone to know you're not a murderer. You're my best friend." Tiffany's sincerity made Sophia tear up. She lightly slapped Tiffany's arm and smiled. "Why are you getting so sentimental all of a sudden? It's embarrassing." Sophia wiped away a tear as she spoke.
Tiffany had already logged into her account and quickly accessed the hacker website.
However, Tiffany had been off the grid for years, and her sudden reappearance immediately drew attention. She knew someone was trying to breach her firewall and locate her information.
Tiffany calculated that she had five minutes, which should be enough.
Then, Tiffany began searching for information about Sophia, her fingers flying over the keyboard.

Soon, various surveillance camera snapshots appeared on Tiffany's computer, flashing by like a slideshow. Simages were automatically categorized, and with one minute left, Tiffany obtained the necessary surveillance photos, quickly copied the resources, and logged out of her account.
Even though Tiffany was online for only five minutes, the news of her return caused a sensation, almost overshadowing Sophia's situation.
The entire network nearly crashed due to the buzz around Tiffany's reappearance.
But no one could precisely locate Tiffany's whereabouts, which reassured her.
She displayed the copied video segments on the computer screen, including the scene where Sophia stabbed the old man and fled.
Seeing herself covered in blood and running away triggered unpleasant memories for Sophia, her brow furrowing deeply.
Tiffany also found surveillance footage near the hospital, finally clarifying the overlooked corner.
It turned out the old man wasn't dead initially. Tobias had taken him to the hospital, and a child had captured the moment on their phone while Tobias was pressing on the old man's wound. Not only that, but Tobias had also taken a blade from his pocket and cut the wound deeper when the medical staff weren't looking.
The old man's pupils dilated, unable to scream in pain, staring at Tobias in despair.
Tobias acted out of fear because the old man had whispered something in his ear as he was losing strength. Tiffany deciphered the old man's words from the footage.
"You wait, I won't let you off!" Tobias was terrified by this threat and, in a panic, decided to kill the old man.

The old man died in the hospital, and his son immediately responded, learning that Tobias had brought the old man to the hospital. Tobias was arrested while trying to escape.
Tobias had never faced such a situation before. Seeing the police, he was so scared that he confessed to the murder before the old man's son could even question him. He also admitted to forcing his wife into prostitution for money and eventually killing her. The old man's accident happened because Tobias wanted Sophia to take over her mother's work and sent her to the old man's bed. Sophia resisted and acted in self-defense, leading to the stabbing.
Once the police understood the situation, they declared Sophia innocent.
The old man could have been saved, but Tobias's fear drove him to kill, landing him in prison for years.
Sophia didn't understand the law well at the time. She thought stabbing someone equated to murder and that she would go to jail, so she chose to flee and never returned from abroad, fearing the truth would cout and she'd be imprisoned.
Later.
With Tiffany's guidance, Sophia overcher fear and decided to return home.
Her career flourished, knowing Tobias wouldn't disturb her life anymore, and she gradually let her guard down. Until Tobias was released and found Sophia again, causing her to feel an unknown fear, unable to think clearly or grasp the truth.
