"Wow, scandalous!"
Elodie leaned against the doorframe, saying, "Odie, that's not cool. You know the saying, 'Bros before... their significant others,' right?"
"..."
Odie pushed Sophie away, his face cold, and said, "What are you doing in my room?"
"..."
Sophie was speechless, as if she had been the one eager for his embrace.
"You're asking me? You've been out cold for three days, and we've all been taking turns looking after you. Are you not grateful?"
"What do you mean? What three days, what taking turns?"
Odie looked puzzled.
William came in holding a tray with soup and said, "This time, Adler and Ms. Jenna both got hurt. Ms. Elodie and Ms. Sandy took turns caring for Ms. Jenna, while Colby and Griffin had to juggle looking after you with Sophie and Mr. Julian dealing with the mess involving the four major families and Duskhaven. I couldn't keep an eye on you all by myself. You surely wouldn't want Mr. Burke and Kiran to look after you, right? So, we had to take turns, and today just happened to be Sophie's turn. Who knew you'd suddenly wake up."
"..."
Odie's face darkened, "Who asked them to take care of me?"
"We all thought you might never wake up."
Sophie dusted off her sleeves and said, "Well, it's good that you did. William said you're all bruised up, and your old wounds haven't healed properly yet. You should stay in bed for the next few days. Anyway, no one has the time to go out now."
"No way, now that Odie is awake, he needs to quickly deal with the mess at Summerfield. Who else is going to run the company? I certainly can't handle it."
Elodie frowned and said discontentedly, "The Tredgold family is in trouble now, and Adler can't be bothered. This mess has already fallen on Colby's shoulders. S Corporation is somewhat manageable, but we can't get rid of the remnants of The Silent Shadows. Kiran is also tied up with the affairs of the Pollard family and can't get away. The Burke family is still in chaos, and Mr. Burke can't spare us a thought. Mr. Odie, please, do us a favor and recover quickly. Taking back Summerfield is what matters."
Listening to all this made Odie's head hurt, "I'm a patient right now, stop bothering me, everyone out!"
