# The Little Girl Who Told the Truth
## Chapter 12 — Sophia Is Confronted by Her Family
That afternoon, the Carter family gathered inside Emily's private hospital room.
Emily rested quietly while her husband stood beside her bed.
Sophia was escorted into the room by Officer Lawson.
Her parents looked at her with disbelief.
Her father spoke first.
"Tell me this isn't true."
Sophia lowered her eyes.
"I..."
Jennifer placed a tablet on the bedside table.
Without speaking, she played the surveillance footage.
Everyone watched.
Every painful second.
Emily's mother burst into tears.
Her father turned away.
Unable to watch any longer.
David clenched his fists.
"You tried to kill my wife..."
"And my son."
Sophia's younger brother slowly shook his head.
"You were jealous..."
"Over a baby?"
No one defended her.
The family she had spent her entire life trying to impress now looked at her like a complete stranger.
