NovelAppChapter 595 "Mr. Odie! This woman is simply too brazen. If you ask me, she ought to be thrown into the sea to feed the sharks!" Gattlin had taken an immediate dislike to Sophie, and when she acted so recklessly, he was more than happy to fan the flames.
"Shut up!" Gattlin saw Odie's dark expression and quickly closed his mouth.
Sophie was gambling on the fact that Odie had something to do with the car accident that had involved her and Colby's parents.
If that was the case, Odie must've been coveting the so-called treasure of Devonport. The four great families guarded the treasure of Devonport, and she was the sole heir of the Russell lineage.
Odie couldn't let her die yet! Odie stared at the stubborn Sophie in front of him and could only sneer before finally letting go of her. "A smart woman, interesting." Sophie breathed a sigh of relief.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOdie ordered the maid, "Prepare, a room and take her back." "Yes." The maid stepped forward, carefully helping Sophie up.
By this point, Sophie was completely out of strength. If it wasn't for the maid's support, she couldn't have walked steadily.
Gattlin watched Sophie's departing figure, utterly confused. Not only did Odie not punish her, but he also prepared a new room for her.
"Mr. Odie, you're just letting her go like this?" Odie ignored Gattlin and left the deck.
Gattlin scratched his head, puzzled. Mr. Odie had never been lenient with women before! Sophie was known for her foul temper and stubbornness. What on earth did Mr. Odie see in this woman? Meanwhile- The island's edge had already turned into a chaotic mess.
Colby had sealed off the coastal border, and wave after wave of rescue workers had gone into the sea, searching day and night, but still, there was no sign of Sophie.
By the coast, Colby took off his diving mask. He didn't even know how many times he had gone into the sea today in search of her.
Adler approached, holding a sandwich, "Colby, it's been a day, have something to eat. You need strength to continue the search." Colby rubbed his temples, his eyes rimmed with dark circles, "Any news from your people?" Adler shook his head, "Our people and Gordon's have all gone out looking, but there's no sign of Sophie. I think..." Adler swallowed the rest of his words.
In the vast sea, finding one person was not easy, especially since Odie was never known to be lenient with women.
"Colby! We found something!" Colby immediately got up and headed forward, with a concerned Adler following behind.
Colby had been pushing his physical limits, staying awake day and night, and diving into the sea countless times, which was beyond what a normal person could endure.
"This was caught by a fisherman this morning, and it doesn't look like an ordinary object," One of the men placed a ring in front of Colby.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat ring, Colby remembered clearly, was the one he had placed on Sophie's finger.
This was Sophie's ring...
Colby felt as if all his strength had been drained. Suppressing the panic in his heart he asked, "Where was it En found?" "Over in the southeast area. Our people have already gone down to search.
Adler noticed Colby remain silent and gestured to his men to continue the search with a wave of his hand, then said, "Go on, keep looking."
Colby remained silent, and Adler gently patted Colby on the shoulder, saying, Colby... Adler wanted to offer comfort, but he couldn't find the right words.
