"So, you never rpsed. You and your spouse set a trap, huh? Waiting for me to walk right into it?"


    "Mr. Odie, I gotta give it to you, you''re pretty sharp when you want to be."


    Though, not often enough.


    Sophie gave a small smile and said, "Mr. Odie, do you think we can leave now?"


    Odie, grinding his teeth in frustration, couldn''t find the words to respond. Sophie feigned surprise and said, "Oh right, I guess I don''t need your permission."


    Turning to Colby, she smirked and said, "Honey, let''s go."


    "Alright."


    Colby walked beside Sophie.


    One of Colby''s men held a knife close to Polly''s throat, her face pale as she was forced to follow them.


    "Boss..."


    Polly''s face was ghostly white, but Odie didn''t even nce her way, letting Colby''s man take her.


    Odie disregarded her safetypletely, and Polly''s expression grew even more distressed.


    Odie coldly said, "Colby, take her, but make sure this ce is cleaned up."


    Without looking back, Colby waved dismissively at Odie, "The cleaning crew will be here in an hour."


    Watching Colby and Sophie boldly leave through the Minton family''s grand entrance, Odie stepped back, growing more infuriated by the second. Jonah, standing by his side, said, "Boss, are we really letting them go? And they took Polly with them?"


    "What can we do? Can you beat him?"


    "No."


    "Or do you think our useless bunch at home can take on Colby''s entire crew?"


    "...No, they can''t."


    "If we can''t beat them, should I just wait to get beaten up?"


    Odie''s words left Jonah silently closing his mouth.


    Odie thought he had seen through Sophie''s little trick, but in the end, he was outmaneuvered by the couple.


    How do they evene up with such schemes?


    "Boss, Polly knows too much about us. If she''s in their hands, what if they start digging..."All content is ? N0velDrama.Org.


    "They won''t find out anything." Odie wasn''t the least bit worried, "There''s no evidence. Her testimony alone proves nothing." "And the phone..."


    "There''s nothing on that phone, or do you think I would''ve let Daniel''s daughter off so easily?"


    When he first kidnapped Sophie, she


    had managed to steal Gattlin''s


    phone, thinking he was ungeh

    After leaving the ship, Polly had informed him about the phone.


    However,


    evide didn''t care much since


    the phone held no incriminating evidence. It was essentially useless to them. It also served as perfect bait for a bigger catch.

    Later, during Sophie''s captures, she spoke convincingly, and Polly hadn''t reported back about Sophie wanting to retrieve the phone.


    He never asked, assuming Sophie wanted revenge for her kidnapping by using the phone.


    To think, after all this time, Sophie had been the one setting the trap.


    It infuriated him!


    Meanwhile, at the Pord residence.


    "Alright, got it. Hanging up now."


    Angelo ended the call and turned to


    James, who was still deep in

    Minton Estate. Nothing major, just a bit of a scuffle, from what heard."


    Hearing Angelo''s phrasing, James nced at him, "Next time, just say their names. Skip the descriptions."
