Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 1073

Facing Sophie's questions, Odie shifted uncomfortably and muttered, "Sophie, are you interrogating me?"

"How could I be?" Sophie replied with an innocent look. "But Mr. Odie, you should know Lennon gave me all these men. And he hasn't left Summerfield yet. With his temperament, if he finds out Colby got hurt because of the Minton family, he won't let it slide."

"Should I be afraid of him?"

"Of course not, which is why I'm here talking with you, right?" Sophie propped her chin on her hands, giving him a look that made it clear she was fine with whatever he decided to say, or not say.

Odie squirmed under her gaze and said, "Elodie wants to team up with me."

"Team up for what?"

"Never mind what for, but I haven't agreed." Odie glanced at Sophie and continued, “I turned down Griffin, and then Griffin said he wanted to meet Colby. Back in the day, Colby threw Griffin into the sea. That's a score Griffin wants to settle. I'm just making an introduction, nothing more."

"Colby... threw Griffin into the sea? And he survived?"
