Ricardo shrugged off Sophie's disdain, saying, "Money—who ever thinks they have enough? Besides, there's always someone better out there. My family, the Cloudes, may have grown, but we can't compare to your big four families. Who wouldn't want to be at the top?"
"Alright, even if you're right and the Cloudes are after the Devonport treasure for those reasons, the people you're working with must have more in mind than just money to go through all this trouble, right?"
Hearing this, Jenna and Adler exchanged surprised looks, while Sandy and Angelo were utterly baffled.
What?
Collaboration?
The Cloude family is working with someone behind the scenes?
The room fell silent for a moment.
Ricardo stared at Sophie for a while before asking, "What are you talking about?"
"I've been wondering, the Cloude family isn't exactly next door to Devonport, so how did you know about its secret? And the Minton family from Summerfield knew about it too. With a bit of thought, it's clear both the Cloude and the Minton families must have struck a deal with this mysterious person over a decade ago. Your relentless pursuit of Devonport is because they revealed the secret of the Devonport treasure to you."
Adler turned to Ricardo and said, "Well, Mr. Ricardo, you've kept that under wraps!"

Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free.
