"Are you out of your mind? What are you babbling about?"
Sophie looked at Odie with feigned confusion.
But Odie said, "I'm not a fool, Sophie. Even if I'm not as smart as Colby, I'm not stupid. That day in the valley, when you asked everyone to put on nose plugs, did you already know what the consequences of inhaling too much of that scent would be?"
Hearing Odie's question, Sophie just remained silent, not saying a word.
However, this only made Odie more convinced of his thoughts.
"That dream, it really can smooth over all regrets."
Odie looked up at Sophie and said, "I dreamed of my mom, I dreamed that man didn't leave her."
Hearing Odie talk about his dream, Sophie was taken aback.
A bitter smile appeared on Odie's face as he said, "Turns out, at the bottom of my heart, the source of all my suffering is still because of that man."
"Dreams are fake, and the beautiful dreams within them are fake too. Don't overthink it."
"I'll return those exact words to you."
Odie leaned against the bedside and said, "If you really weren't overthinking, you wouldn't have asked Gordon, that sickly guy."
"It seems you know what I wanted to ask. All of you knew, only keeping me in the dark."
"I learned a lesson when I was young."
Odie said lightly, "The truth is never something told by others, but something you have to find out for yourself. If you want to know something, you have to investigate it yourself. Never expect to hear the truth from someone else's mouth."
At this point, Odie paused, looked at Sophie, and said, "Unless... you don't want to find out."
Actually, based on Odie's understanding of Sophie.
If Sophie wanted to know something, she would have definitely investigated it already, not wait until now.
But so much time had passed.
And Sophie was still asking others in the most foolish way.

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....
Excellent novel!...
