Sandy was upset, and Vanessa wasn't in the mood to cheer her up. "Sandy, I'm feeling a bit off too. I'm heading upstairs," she said.

Sandy felt a bit confused. "What's with everyone today?"

Up on the second floor, Jonah pushed open the door to the guest room. All the windows were nailed shut, and even the door lock had been removed.

Sophie turned to Odie, who was standing behind her. "Odie, what's the meaning of this?" she asked.

"You're the head of S Corporation, always keeping a low profile. The last time you revealed your identity, it really shocked me. I was afraid one day you might jump out of a window without me knowing." Sophie walked over to the window, looked at the tightly nailed steel plate, and suddenly laughed.

Odie frowned. "What's so funny?"

"I find you quite clever at times, and at other times..." She turned to meet Odie's scrutinizing gaze and said seriously, "Absolutely brilliant."

The large steel plate nailed over the window would be easily visible from downstairs. Colby would immediately guess which room she was confined in. Perfect, it would make escaping easier later on. Odie stared at Sophie for a while. Sensing his gaze fixed on her, Sophie stepped forward, extending her hands. "Mr. Odie, are you going to handcuff me?" she asked.
