Chapter 739
Sophie was saying things that didn't reflect her true emotions while feeling uncertain inside.
If Odie hadn't believed her, she feared she would never have the chance to get close to the core of Minton International again.
"Alright, I'll give you a high-paying job, but I must also tell you, I do not tolerate betrayal. If you dare to deceive me, I'll break your hands and shatter your legs, then throw you into the wine cellar to age you like fine wine."
Odie's eyes were cold as ice. Sophie earnestly replied, "Mr. Odie, rest assured, as long as I'm paid, I swear to keep my lips sealed and never switch sides."
Hearing this, Odie no longer looked at Sop
Fly said, "You may leave now."
Sophie breathed a sigh of relief. As she turned to leave, she took a careful look around the room. Suddenly, Odie said, "You won't need to play the piano anymore. I'll have someone send you home soon." "No piano? Then what about my job..."
"I will arrange it later."
After saying this, Odie sat down on the couch, sipping his drink alone.
Sophie had achieved her goal. Now that Odie was planning to arrange work for her, she left immediately.
Outside, Jonah had just finished dealing with Sandra's matter. He hesitated before entering, asking, "Boss, do you really plan to trust her?"
"Why not?"
"This woman is full of lies. If she's really working with Colby against you..."
"Enough." Odie, tiredly massaging his temples, asked, "Any news from Colby's side?"
"Our people have searched thoroughly. There's no sign of Colby in Summerfield, including any members of the Costello family setting foot here." Odie scoffed, "Seems like he really doesn't plan to care for his fiancée."
"Colby once said personally that he would never set foot in Summerfield. After all, this is your territory. I suppose he wouldn't risk it allTêxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
for a woman."
Odie sneered, "Colby can abandon his own friend without hesitation, let alone a woman."
"Boss, if that's the case, then Sophie is of no use."
"Who says she's of no use? She's the only heir of the Russell family now. We had initially set a money trap for Perry to silence the then head of Russell Enterprises and catch him and the entire Russell family. Who knew he would actually abandon Perry, leading to his and his unfortunate wife's death?" Odie said indifferently, "To control the Russell family, we need to firmly hold Sophie in our grasp."
"But the Russell family is bankrupt. After being heavily in debt, they've completely merged with s Corporation. The Russell family no longer exists. What use is Sophie?"
"She is of use! The four great families of Devonport have lasted a century,

Outside, Sophie overheard the entire conversation.
"Ms. Sophie, weren't you going to the restroom?" The contentis on

Suddenly, Wayne's voice sounded from outside.
