"I don't care about the consequences; I just want to make sure you get back everything you've lost."

Elodie looked at Griffin standing before her, momentarily at a loss for words.

She stepped forward to support the unconscious Sophie and said, "That 10% share doesn't mean anything to me. You didn't have to do this. Besides, the Devonport whirlpool is too big. I overestimated myself. Return Sophie to Colby. My dispute with them is over." Saying this, Elodie reached for her phone to call Gordon.

At that moment, Griffin intercepted her.

"What are you doing? I don't want to fight anymore. Doing these dangerous things for me is pointless."

"It matters," Griffin said, his voice steady and unwavering. "I don't want to see you lose. In my heart, you'll never lose to anyone."

With that, Griffin took Sophie from Elodie's arms and also grabbed her phone.

"Everything that happens next is my decision. Even if it fails, it has nothing to do with you. Also, I've cut the phone line and locked the main door from the inside. Without the code, you can't leave. Just stay here. Within three days, I'll find a way to raise the money. I won't let you return to Harbor City with nothing."

Griffin had been by Elodie's side through her darkest times; he knew how hard she'd fought to get where she was.
