Chapter 594
At the brink of disaster, Odie almost instinctively grabbed Sophie’s arm.
Had this woman lost her mind?
At that moment, Sophie was already hanging off the edge of the cruise ship, with the waves already lapping at her ankles. If Odie were to let go, she would plunge into the sea immediately
“Mr. Odie!” Gattlin was terrified. How was Sophie so reckless with her life?
Odie angrily ordered, “What are you waiting for? Pull her up!”
*4411 go get help!”
“No need!”
Sophie slowly tried to free herself from Odie’s grip, but the more she struggled, the tighter he held on. “Sophie! Have you truly lost your will to live?!”
“Odie, my life is mine to control! Either you respect me, or…
Sophie silently resisted Odie.
Odie clenched his jaw, his face flushed with anger. No one had ever dared threaten him like this!
“Mr. Odie! The rope is here!”
“Pull her up right now!”
“Yes, sirl
The rope was already dangling beside Sophie, but she showed no intention of climbing up. Biting his teeth, Odie coldly said, “You want respect. I’ll give it to you! Now climb up this instant!”
Sophie finally achieved her goal
But it wasn’t enough!
ཁཿཋ ཋ
Grabbing the rope, she sneered at Odie in the next second, I don’t like being ordered around, and no one can command me.”
Then, Sophie let go of the
rope. and the next second, she fell into the sea
“Mr. Odiel She… she fell down
Odie, funous, slapped Gattlin across the face. “Stop stating the obvious! Have someone jump in and pull her up immediately!”
“Yes!”
Sophie was underwater. Although she had braced herself for the fall, she still accidentally swallowed a mouthful of seawater causing discomfort in her chest. She struggled to keep herself from sinking.
Soon, sounds of people diving into the water to rescue her followed, and Sophie breathed a sigh of relief.
She had gambled correctly. Odie didn’t want her to die.
Moments later, Odie’s men helped Sophie back up, and she spat out a mouthful of seawater. In a situation where she should have appeared disheveled, she instead looked like a victor in front of Odie.
Odie looked at Sophie, and instead of feeling a surge of conquest, he felt a suffocating frustration. He stared at her with a dark expression, barely containing his anger “Do you truly have a death wish?”
Sophie raised an eyebrow. “Why would that be? value my life, but more than that, I value respect.”
By now, even Odie, despite his reluctance, could see that Sophie’s actions had been deliberate. She had jumped into the sea to turn the tables, making him fallow her lead all along!,
Realizing this, Odie’s expression darkened further. “Are you gambling that I wouldn’t dare kill you?”
“Yes.
Taking in Sophie’s straightforward admission, Odie then grabbed her by the throat, coldly stating. “Then let’s see if I will actually kill you
or not this time.”
“Cough, cough…
Sophie struggled for breath under Odie’s grip but still managed to muster a smile. “Mr. Odie, you could easily kill me, especially since I’m already considered dead in James‘ eyes. Dying again wouldn’t make a difference. However, keeping me alive must have its advantages for you, doesn’t it? Keeping me around surely serves a greater purpose for you”
