Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 870

Sandy was upset, and Vanessa wasn’t in the mood to cheer her up. “Sandy, I’m feeling a bit off too. I’m heading upstairs,” she said.

Sandy felt a bit confused. “What’s with everyone today?”

Up on the second floor, Jonah pushed open the door to the guest room. All the windows were nailed shut, and even the door lock had been removed.

Sophie turned to Odie, who was standing behind her. “Odie, what’s the meaning of this?” she asked.

“You’re the head of S Corporation, always keeping a low profile. The last time you revealed your identity, it really shocked me. I was afraid one day you might jump out of a window without me knowing.”

Sophie walked over to the window, looked at the tightly nailed steel plate, and suddenly laughed.

Odie frowned. “What’s so funny?”

“I find you quite clever at times, and at other times…” She turned to meet Odie’s scrutinizing gaze and said seriously, “Absolutely brilliant.”

The large steel plate nailed over the window would be easily visible from downstairs. Colby would immediately guess which room she was confined in. Perfect, it would make escaping easier later on.

Odie stared at Sophie for a while. Sensing his gaze fixed on her, Sophie stepped forward, extending her hands. “Mr. Odie, are you going to handcuff me?” she asked.

Hearing this, Odie’s brows furrowed even deeper. “Aren’t you afraid?”

“Not at all. Since leaving the Minton family, life’s been unbearable anyway. I might as well stay by your side. Maybe, when you see me in pain, you might even spare me some poison to ease it.”

Odie’s face darkened at Sophie’s sincere expression. He had previously ordered Jonah to withdraw all the new drugs, receiving pleas from many regular clients, but Sophie remained silent. After several days, he couldn’t resist showing up at her door.

However, Sophie showed no intention of pleading, making him feel like he was the one eager to please her.

“Jonah!”

“She isn’t saying anything?”

Jonah nodded affirmatively. “Not a word.”

“Not pleading? Not making any requests?”

Jonah shook his head.

Odie suddenly lost all desire to work. After a moment of silence, he asked, “Do you think she’s doing it on purpose?”

“Doing it on purpose?”

“She let herself be taken by me intentionally, actually wanting to find something out from me?”
