Chapter 1596
He wouldn't let anyone ruin their future.
Even if the enemy was so powerful that they could only hope to catch a glimpse of their back. He would fight against them to the end.
Outside, Odie stood in front of Sophie and Colby's door, still holding the pose of knocking.
His head was lowered, his expression unclear.
Finally, Odie let his hand fall, exhaling deeply before slowly making his way downstairs, leaning on the wall for support.
Odie, you're a broken man.
There's no need to trouble them anymore.
The next morning.
Sophie slowly woke up, instinctively reaching out to the other side of the bed. Realizing Colby wasn't by her side, she immediately opened her eyes, looked around, then threw off the covers and walked to the side of the bed, continuously calling out, "Colby!" Downstairs, Colby and Harold were in the living room when they saw Sophie running down in her pajamas, not even bothering to put on shoes.
Seeing this, Colby immediately went upstairs to take off his slippers and put them on Sophie, saying, "Why are you so reckless? Running out without shoes?"
"I didn't see you, I thought you had..."
Sophie breathed a sigh of relief.
It was indeed the accumulation of recent events.
That led her to worry unnecessarily.
"Did you find him?"
Harold glanced at Jonah, who had just come back from outside. Jonah shook his head, saying, "Not yet."
"What's going on?"
Sophie noticed the grave expressions on everyone in the living room, even Jenna and Adler looked troubled when they came in.
"Odie's gone."
Colby added: "He didn't leave any message. We're sending people out to look for him."
"What about the surveillance footage? Could it be The Silent Shadows..."
"It's not The Silent Shadows," Colby said. "He left on his own."
Hearing this, Sophie was stunned.
"Why would Odie just run off like that?"Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Faced with Sophie's question, Colby had no explanation to offer.
In truth, Odie, despite his fierce appearance, had a heart as fragile as a child's craving for love.
He always used his ferocity as a protective color, yet his heart was incredibly soft.
This time, he probably felt like he was truly dragging everyone down, so he decided to face The Silent Shadows alone, hoping for a mutual destruction.
This was the conclusion Colby reached based on his understanding of Odie.
And it was indeed something Odie would do.
"This Odie, at such a critical moment, what kind of temper is he throwing?"
Jenna said irritably, looking at Harold, she asked, "Didn't the Aldridge family's bodyguards notice him leaving?"
Harold shook his head: "No way,
after all, he's the head of the Mintons, and he's from the same place as Colby and Griffin. If he wanted to leave, he'd have ways to do so without a trace."
"I'm so frustrated! This Odie! Always so prideful! If he falls into The Silent Shadows' hands, wouldn't that mean death?" "Not necessarily."
Harold said, "He's probably not going
to his death, Have you forgotten? The so-called head of The Silent Shadow has only appeared once, when they were interrogating Qdie about the location of the gemstone.
I guess, he's trying to use his life to lure out the leader."
