Odie immediately removed the mask from the woman's face, revealing an entirely unfamiliar face beneath.
Her voice was different, and her appearance didn't match.
Jean's face flushed with embarrassment, and she reached out to grab Odie's collar.
Odie's gaze narrowed dangerously, and then he growled, "Get out!"
Gattlin, who was outside the door, hurriedly pushed it open, only to find Jean lying on the bed, already ensnared and confused, with no idea what had happened.
"Mr. Odie... this..."
Odie's face darkened with rage as he barked, "Open your damn eyes! What have you brought me?"
Gattlin was baffled. He hadn't seen Sophie's face and naturally didn't recognize whether the person in front of him was the one Odie was looking for.
"I personally oversaw it. There's no way it's wrong!"
Upon closer inspection of Jean's face, Gattlin immediately recognized Jean as the woman who had been drinking with Sophie. Gattlin's expression darkened as he said, "Mr. Odie! It was that woman's trickery!"
He had found Jean and convinced her to deliver a drink to Sophie, promising her a handsome reward. Little did he expect Jean to be so easily outmaneuvered by Sophie and then swapped onto Odie's bed!
Gatlin quickly said, "Mr. Odie, I'll send someone to fetch her right away!"
"Do you think she's as foolish as you? By the time you realize it, she's already long gone!"
"This..." Gattlin had nothing to say and braced himself for a reprimand.
Odie glanced coldly at Jean, who was writhing on the bed, and commanded, "Throw her out! And you, get lost!"
Hearing this, Gattlin hurriedly carried Jean away.
Odie's gaze was icy. It was the first time in years that a woman had dared to play such a trick on him. If he hadn't let that woman taste his methods, he would have swallowed this insult for nothing.
Meanwhile—
Sophie had already gotten into Colby's car. Adler, noticing Sophie wearing a dress completely different from the one she had on when she left, couldn't help but ask, "Sophie, what happened to your dress?"
"I lost it."
"Lost it?" Adler was stunned, and said, "That dress cost tens of thousands! If you had to lose it, at least lose it to me!"
