Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)

Chapter 1073



Facing Sophie's questions, Odie shifted uncomfortably and muttered, "Sophie, are you interrogating me?"

"How could I be?" Sophie replied with an innocent look. "But Mr. Odie, you should know Lennon gave me all these men. And he hasn't left Summerfield yet. With his temperament, if he finds out Colby got hurt because of the Minton family, he won't let it slide."

"Should I be afraid of him?"

"Of course not, which is why I'm here talking with you, right?" Sophie propped her chin on her hands, giving him a look that made it clear she was fine with whatever he decided to say, or not say.

Odie squirmed under her gaze and said, "Elodie wants to team up with me."

"Team up for what?"

"Never mind what for, but I haven't agreed." Odie glanced at Sophie and continued, "I turned down Griffin, and then Griffin said he wanted to meet Colby. Back in the day, Colby threw Griffin into the sea. That's a score Griffin wants to settle. I'm just making an introduction, nothing more."

"Colby... threw Griffin into the sea? And he survived?"

"How would I know? The world's a strange place. Griffin was just lucky."

"Lucky?" Sophie chuckled at Odie's logic. "Seriously, that's the Pacific Ocean. If someone tossed you in, you might not make it either. If Colby really wanted Griffin dead, wouldn't it have been simpler to finish him off with a knife first? Yet Griffin's alive and kicking, even strong enough to come after Colby."

Odie frowned, "So you're saying..."

"I'm saying Colby let him go on purpose. He let you go on purpose too, back then. Can't you see?"

Odie's frown deepened. "Sophie, stop making excuses for Colby. He's a ruthless guy who'll do anything to get what he wants!"

"Sure, he's ruthless, but he's not a scoundrel." Sophie stood up and said, "I don't want to meddle in your feud, but one thing: don't hurt Colby."

With that, Sophie turned and left Odie's study.

Jonah, who had been standing by the door, quickly came in as soon as Sophie left.

"She said Colby drove me away for my own good."

"...What?"

Jonah was stunned.

"For my own good?"

Odie couldn't believe it and asked again.

"Boss, it's normal. Sophie is Colby's wife; of course, she'd defend him."

"Right? That's what you think too?"

"Yes."

Odie recapped, "Colby drove me away, and then effortlessly took over the White family, claiming it was for my good? How is that for my good? Can you explain that to me?" en.swhovels.net
