Sophie asked, "Mr. Gordon, is Colbying back tonight?"


    "Are you still hung up on that? Do you realize if you can''t kick this habit, your life is over?"


    "I can get through this."


    Gordon let out a bitter chuckle. "Minton International has been dealing drugs for years, making a fortune off it. So many lives destroyed. What makes you think you''ll be any different?"


    "If I didn''t have the determination, I wouldn''t havee back to Devonport. I could''ve just stayed by Odie''s side, right?"


    Sophie lowered her gaze. "Besides, I knew from the start he injected something into my arm."


    From the night Odie kidnapped her, Sophie knew she had been injected with drugs. Odie kept her close, betting she wouldn''t dare leave him.

    "Mr. Gordon, I need another favor."


    "Go on."


    "I want you to use my name and bank card to buy cocaine from Minton International."


    She couldn''t let Odie find out about her detoxing. Her only option was to deceive him, making him believe she was satisfying her addiction by buying from Summerfield.

    Gordon quickly understood her n. "Don''t worry about that. I''ve got it covered."


    It was the afternoon, inside the Pord family''s mansion. Sandy handed Vanessa the newspaper, saying, "Sophie really does have nine lives,ing back alive like that!"


    Vanessa''s face turned pale at the

    sight of Sophie in the newspaper Sandy was even more infuriated.


    "How on earth does Odie handle


    things? I''m calling Daddy to have him ask Odie!"


    "Sandy, there must be a mistake in the newspaper. How could Sophie possibly survive after being taken to Summerfield? Vahes sa gripped Sandy''s arm. "Shan Shan, if Sophie really came back... If she knows I conspired with Odie to kidnap her, will she tell Colby? Will Colby hate me even more?"


    Seeing Vanessa panic, Sandy
