Odie asked, "Is it done?"
"It's done."
As she spoke, Sophie handed the smartphone back to Odie, saying, "Mr. Odie, please check if there’s anything else that needs to be added."
Odie hadn't expected such openness. He took the smartphone and looked at Sophie's new social media account, which only had one post. It was a selfie of Sophie with a geotag at an island resort. The photo of Sophie was clearly edited, and the caption read: "All is well. Gunshots were just for show. I had a fever and got caught in the rain. My temperature hit 104°F, and I was out cold, so I couldn't check my phone. Thanks for all the concern. I'm not dead! Still kicking!"
It sounded cheeky, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Just a few minutes after the message was posted, it had already garnered hundreds of likes and comments.
Odie casually exited the app and then handed it over to Gattlin, saying, "Keep this safe."
"Yes, Mr. Odie."
Gattlin was sweating bullets over the narrow escape from danger.
Sophie, however, deliberately said, "Mr. Odie, we've been chatting away, and the food has gone cold."
Gattlin stopped in his tracks, unsure of the meaning behind Sophie's words.
Sophie raised an eyebrow and said, "Mr. Odie doesn’t like to waste food, so how about we warm it up and continue eating?"
"I indeed dislike wasting food, but I also don't like eating reheated meals," Odie said, looking towards Gattlin. "Dispose of them properly. Don't let them go to waste."
After saying that, Odie stood up and walked towards his bedroom.
Sophie also got up, patted Gattlin on the shoulder with a smile, and said, "Please clean up these leftovers. Mr. Odie doesn't like to waste food, and neither do I."
"You…"
"Oh, and remember to bring some fresh meals to my room later. Light and not greasy, but with meat. I like Japanese cuisine, thank you."

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....
