Chapter 811
When they burst into the room, they were met with the shocking sight of Sophie sinking her teeth into Colby’s arm.
“Colby!”
Adler rushed forward, desperate to pull them apart, but Colby urgently whispered, “Don’t!”
“Are you crazy? Do you want to lose your arm?”
Adler was clueless about what had happened, but noticing Sophie’s pale face and feeling her burning forehead, he quickly realized something was seriously
wrong.
Jenna paced anxiously nearby, her voice trembling, “What’s happening? What’s wrong with Sophie?”
“Stop asking!”
Adler’s face turned dark with worry as he grabbed Jenna’s arm, “We need to go outside.”
“Go outside? We can’t leave her like this! Sophie! Sophie!”
Jenna called out in desperation, trying to reach Sophie, but Sophie seemed oblivious, her face contorted in agony.
“Come on, let’s go!“.
Adler pulled Jenna out of the room, despite her resistance and constant glances back.
Outside, Gordon had just arrived. Seeing him, Jenna hurried over, “Mr. Gordon, Sophie’s really sick. Please call a doctor…”
Gordon cut her off, “I’ve already sent for one. Just make sure no one hears
about this.”
Adler’s brow furrowed deeply, “I understand. I’ll go get William right away.”
It was rare for Jenna to see Adler so serious, and even Gordon looked incredibly tense. The gravity of the situation hit her hard, and she turned pale, “Could it be… could it be…”

Neither Adler nor Gordon spoke, their silence confirming her worst fears.
Jenna felt a cold dread. In their social circle, drug use wasn’t uncommon. Those who fell into it often met tragic ends. If Sophie didn’t make it…
“What happened? How did Sophie get involved with that stuff?” Jenna turned to Gordon, her face ashen, “Mr. Gordon, did you know about this?”
From Gordon’s expression, it seemed he had known for a while. Yet Sophie had seemed so normal around them. Had she been enduring this torment alone.all this time?
“She’ll be okay. Colby has prepared well for this. We’re working on an antidote for the new drug the Mintons developed. Sophie will be alright; she has to be.” Gordon’s words seemed meant to comfort Jenna, but it sounded like he was reassuring himself too.
Inside the room, the metallic taste of blood filled Sophie’s mouth. When she finally came to her senses, she realized she had bitten into Colby’s arm. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
“Colby… I’m sorry… I’m so sorry…”
Sophie’s voice was filled with tears. Colby felt as if a knife had pierced his heart, the pain making it hard to breathe. He gently held Sophie’s face, whispering, “There’s nothing to be sorry for, sweetheart. Trust me, I’ll find a way. I can find a way. You have to hang in there. Only then can you truly escape this pain.”
Sophie, lost in her anguish, shook her head frantically, gripping Colby’s arm tighter, “Colby… please, I’m begging you… just give me the medicine… I know you can get it! Colby…”
