Chapter 754
“Didn’t you check out the third floor yourself? Why are you asking me?”
Facing Odie’s question, Sophie didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she made her way over to his desk. Odje frowned slightly, ready to shut his laptop, but Sophie blocked him. She moved to his side, trying to catch a glimpse of what scandalous video he had been watching.
Odie was quicker, closing the video before she could see anything.
Odie frowned, “Sophie, what are you up to?”
“Nothing at all,” she said, though her actions spoke differently. She took advantage of Odie’s brief lapse in vigilance, grabbing the laptop. Odie stood up immediately, his face darkening. “Sophie!”
Sophie reopened the video file. The decor and setup in the video were identical to the third floor of Minton International, clearly showing Odie had been viewing surveillance footage. On the screen, a man and woman were having sex on a bed. The woman’s face was full of pain, and the man was none other than Daniel!
Feigning surprise, Sophie said, “I had no idea Mr. Odie had such unique tastes, enjoying these kinds of films.”
“Give it back!” Odie snatched the laptop and slammed it shut. “What are you really here for?”
“I was just wondering. Since Ms. Leticia has always been helping you win people over, did she also work on the third floor at some point?”
“And what if she did?”
“Think about it. You fought with Ms. Leticia for my sake. Given her personality, she must despise me. And I, with no power or influence in Summerfield, would be in danger if she decided to act against me one day.”
Odie dismissed her concern, “I’m here. She wouldn’t dare do anything to you.”
“But I can’t be with you 24/7, can I? Think about it, didn’t I almost lose my life last night?”
Odie remained silent, so Sophie pressed on, “What I’m thinking is, could you share a copy of the video on this laptop with me?”
Odle raised an eyebrow, “What? Ms. Sophie, you have such heavy tastes too?”
“Of course not! I’m keeping it for protection. With this, Ms. Leticia, for the sake of her own reputation, surely wouldn’t rashly put me in mortal danger, right?”
Odie responded coolly, “You needn’t worry about that. If Leticia ever kills you, I’ll make sure to spread her video across the internet, ensuring she’s ruined before your memorial. Are you satisfied now?”
“You…”
“Alright, leave now. Don’t come to my study without a good reason.”
Without looking up, Odie reopened his laptop. Hearing the sounds from the speakers, Sophie knew staying was futile. Pretending to be angry, she stomped out of the study.
After Sophie left, Odie closed the video. Jonah came in, asking, “Boss, should we keep Polly on her?”
“No need. Since we’re collaborating, I won’t doubt her.”
The recent incident had left Odie somewhat irritated. Suddenly, he had an idea, “Right, prepare a dress for her tonight, one that covers all her injuries.”
