Inside Aldridge Estate.


    After returning, Sophie had been staring at the share certificate in her hands.


    The clear handwriting of her father and the original seal of the Russell family were still visible on it.


    Sophie walked over to the drawer, took out the old seal of Russell Enterprises, which hadn''t been used for two years.


    When Sophie stamped the seal on a nk piece of paper, she tried to discern any differences between it and the seal on the contract, but there were none. This proved that the share certificate was indeed stamped by her father.


    But why... In her memory, the Russell family and the Aldridge family had never had any dealings?


    ''Knock, knock''


    A knocking sound came from the door, and Sophie almost immediately hid the seal back in the drawer.


    After getting everything in order, Sophie said, "Come in."


    Colby opened the door, and upon seeing him, Sophie said, "What brings you here all of a sudden? I thought it was Jenna."


    "I didn''t want to disturb you in case you were deep in thought, or... give you a start by barging in."


    Colby walked up to Sophie, noticing the share certificate still lying next to her, he then said, "Still pondering over this share certificate?"


    "I just want to know how Mr. Gordon came to possess shares of my family."


    Sophie said, "But I''ve thought it over the entire afternoon and still can''t figure it out."This belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Gordon is far-sighted, perhaps... this was just a transaction between the Aldridge family and the Russell family in the past, don''t think too much about it." Colby touched Sophie''s head, saying, "The priority now is to find Odie."


    From Jason''s reaction today, Odie must be with Reece.


    If that''s the case, things could getplicated.


    Because Reece would never release Odie easily.


    Outside, Adler suddenly opened the door and said to Sophie and Colby in the room, "There''s news! Come quickly!"


    Hearing there might be news about Odie, Sophie and Colby quickly left the room.


    Harold''s


    incople had replied, but it contact them. Content


    was not they who found Odie; instead, Reece took the


    "Here''s the email Reece sent, take a look yourselves."


    Harold ced theptop in front of Sophie and Colby.


    The email contained only a brief sentence, indicating the address where Reece invited them to meet. The address was in the hills of Devonport.


    "This Reece, I thought he was a decent person, but why invite us to the hills? What kind of ce is this?" Adler looked at the map marker, even for locals of Devonport like them, this ce was unfamiliar.


    "I checked, this area is deep in the mountains, normally off-limits to people. Many adventurers who ventured there in the past never


    returned, not even their bodies


    were found. It''s a dangerous ce + don''t rmend going there alone."


    Harold frowned as well.


    Now that they knew Reece was not an ally, they shouldn''t trust him.


    At least that''s what they thought, but they were unsure about Sophie''s opinion.


    "I''ll go."


    As soon as Sophie gave her answer, Jenna immediately became anxious and said:


    "Sophie, don''t be foolish. He''s no longer on our side. If you go and something happens, what then?"


    Sophie shook her head, replying, "I''m not going because I trust him; I''m going because of Odie''s safety. We don''t know Odie''s condition in Reece''s hands, and only by meeting Reece do we stand a chance to bring Odie back. Besides... have many questions I want to ask him."
