"Jerk!"

Sophie cursed angrily, but surprisingly, Odie didn't show a hint of anger.

"Ms. Sophie, you... why did you come back?"

The surprise was even more evident on the face of the bodyguard standing by Odie's side. Anyone would think that now was the best chance for her to run away!

"I came back, of course. I had to come back! Odie, you really are a jerk, letting your people kill me! What did I do wrong?"

As she spoke, Sophie reached for the handgun that Odie always kept at his waist. She pretended to be furious and said, "I'm right here in front of you. If you want to kill me, do it now, in my face, openly!" While saying this, Sophie was closely observing Odie's expressions. She was confident that Odie wasn't the one who wanted her dead.

While fleeing to the car earlier, she had been contemplating whether to just run away, but she quickly dismissed the thought. She wasn't familiar with Duskhaven, and Ricardo's influence was vast. If he wanted to find her, there were a thousand and one ways to do so.

Moreover, penniless as she was, the chances of a successful escape were greatly diminished. If caught, she would directly lose Odie's trust.

Odie hated those who betrayed him, and her fate might not be much better than Gattlin, who was thrown into the sea.

Rather than running away, it was better to come back willingly and win Odie's trust.
