How did it catch fire all of a sudden? Didn’t Sophie go to the third floor?
On the second floor, Jenna and Adler stepped out and saw Gordon being helped back to his room by Rick. They were both taken aback.
“Mr. Gordon?”
Angelo and Sandy were just as surprised. They’d never seen Gordon looking so disheveled!
“It was just a small fire, but Mr. Gordon needs to rest,” Rick said, stepping forward. “I’d like to ask everyone to keep tonight’s events to yourselves, especially from Ms. Sophie.”
“Why?” Sandy asked, puzzled.
“No reason, just trust that it’s for Ms. Sophie’s own good,” Rick replied, helping Gordon back to his room.
Sandy frowned. The Aldridge family sure was strange!
The next day, Sophie woke up again. She sat up abruptly, feeling dizzy, and then lay back down. Odie, standing nearby, saw this and opened his mouth, but no words came out.
“Quick... I need to get to the third floor!”
Sophie tried to get out of bed, but Odie gently pushed her back down.
Sophie looked at Odie, her usual calm gone. “I need to go to the third floor! Don’t stop me!”
Sophie had always been tough, but this time, she was seriously determined. Seeing the resolve in her eyes, Odie knew she really wanted to know what was up there. He suddenly felt a pang of conscience, but he couldn’t say anything.
Odie tightened his grip on his own hand, speaking with a guilty edge, “You’ve got a fever, you've been rambling all night, and now you're talking nonsense?”
“What fever? Last night I was...!”

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. 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. More about what’s up with Gordon....
