Chapter 591
At that moment, O! was sitting inside the cabin, resting his head on his hand, curiously watching the minor in front of him, which clearly reflected every move of Sophie,
“Mr Odie…”
“What is she doing?”
Gattlin also looked towards the mimot only to see Sophie leaning against the corner wall, curling up, motionless.
“She must be… scared?”
“Scared?” Odie mised an eyebrow. He had seen countless people locked up and scared in the dark, but Sophie’s reaction was nothing like theirs.
Fear didn’t look like this.
“Make some noise for her to hear”
“Yes, Mr. Odie.”
Gatlin exited the room
Soon after, the sound of a woman’s screams and wails could be heard from next door but these noises seemed to have no effect on Sophie in the small, dark room
Through the mirror Sophie’s body remained still
Gattlin returned and reported, “Mr. Odie, it’s done.”
Still observing Sophie through the mirror, Odie frowned and asked, “Could the mirror have been tampered with?”
“No, it’s a genuine two–way mirror. How could it be tampered with.”
Odie looked at Sophie in the mirror and suddenly stood up, his face dark with anger. “Go, open the door
Gattlin looked bewildered but quickly realized what he was asked to do. He immediately left the room, took the keys, and opened the door of the small dark room
Inside, Sophie was curled up, motionless.
Odie strode forward and pulled Sophie up, but she still did not react. Odie frowned and touched Sophie’s forehead.
Gattlin whispered from the side, “Mr. Odie, did she faint?”
“Do you have to ask?” Odie gave Gattlin a cold glance, and Gattlin quickly shut his mouth.
Odie glanced at Sophie lying on the ground and then carled her in his arms, his face grim. “Go get a doctor!”
“Right away!”
Gattlin watched as Odie left with Sophie in his arms, puzzled. Wasn’t Mr. Odle supposed to kill this woman? Why not punish her a bit more?
The Minton family’s private doctor walked into Odie’s cabin bedroom with all due respect, and after a thorough examination, he said with a serious face, “She’s running a high fever. She needs medication immediately, or it could be dangerous.”
Gatlin remarked, “It’s just a fever, How bad can it be?”
The doctor frowned, “Her temperature is nearing 104 degrees Fahrenheit! if it keeps rising, it could easily damage her brain nerves.” Odie, sitting aside, said indifferently. “Then treat her. The ship docks in three days, and I want to see her up and about by then.”
“I do my best

three times a day.”
preparing the treatment plan, Odie said, “Keep her in the small dark room, Administer medication and injections
“Sir, she’s already so weak. That dark room…”
Odie said mockingly. “What? You want me to clear a space for her treatment?”
The doctor didn’t speak further, well aware of what kind of man his boss was. When it came to women, his boss had never been soft–hearted.
Gattlin motioned to the maid at the door “Come, take her back.”
The maid entered fearfully, wary of catching Odie’s eye.
In just a short while, Sophie was moved back to the small dark
