Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

In the guest room, Polly sat across from Sophie and asked, "Ms. Sophie, is there something you wanted to tell me?"

"Leticia is dead. Did you know that?"NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Polly froze at the news. Leticia's death had made headlines. Everyone in Summerfield knew about it.

"Leticia gave up everything for Odie. As the heiress of the prestigious Gibbs family, her life meant nothing to him, and he killed her without hesitation. What do you think he'd do if he found out you were hiding evidence that could harm the Mintons?"

"Ms. Sophie, did you come all this way just for the phone Gattlin left behind?"

"The Minton family is now established overseas and is set to become part of the Pollard family. Usually, finding a maid from the Minton family wouldn't be hard, but you're a pawn in Odie's game. He won't let you slip from his grasp easily, so I had to take the risk to come here."

Sophie extended her hand. "Give me the phone."

"I..."

Bang!

Odie suddenly kicked the door open, and Sophie quickly pulled her hand back.

"Odie, that's quite rude," Sophie said.

"Is it?" Odie stepped back, knocked on the door, and then pushed it open again. "How about now? Polite enough?"

He walked up to Polly. "You, leave."

"Yes, boss." As Polly left, she kept glancing back, worry etched on her face.

Sophie frowned. "What do you want?"

Odie glanced at the food on Sophie's cart, feeling a surge of irritation. "Eating better than me, I see."

"All thanks to your arrangements. I'm very grateful."

"Mrs. Costello isn't used to these. Jonah, take the food away. From now on, only pickles and plain bread for Mrs. Costello's dinner. That's what she likes."

Watching the dinner cart being wheeled away, Sophie laughed. "Odie, how childish can you get?"

Odie plopped down on the couch opposite her. "Childish or not, you lied to me. I'll make sure you're not comfortable."

"Odie, I admit, lying to you was not good, but I did it to protect myself. Besides, haven't you already gotten your revenge?"

Sophie extended her arm. "If you're still angry, then give me another shot."

Seeing her smooth arm, Odie sneered. "Sophie, do you think I'm stupid? You rely on my new drug to curb your addiction. Giving you a free dose is a loss for me."

"Mr. Odie, you're not easily fooled, I see." Sophie withdrew her arm. "But now that I'm here, I know my life is in your hands. I'll do whatever you want, as long as you keep supplying me with the drugs."

Odie raised an eyebrow. He knew Sophie couldn't handle the pain of withdrawal. "I can give it to you, but you need to follow my orders. Whatever I tell you to do, you must do it."

"Since I've chosen to stand with you, without resisting, doesn't that mean I've made my decision?" Sophie said earnestly "Odie, we're the same kind of people. I married Colby for better life, but if a gun was pointed at my head, I'd choose to abandon him to save myself."
