Sophie didn't expect Odie to have already dealt with Gattlin just as she had returned to her room. She was almost discovered.
Polly said, "But Ms. Sophie, how did you know that Mr. Odie would have thrown Gattlin into the sea? What if Mr. Odie had spared Gattlin..."
"He's such a useless person. Keeping him would be pointless, and given Odie's personality, he would never spare someone who dared to target his prey."
"I see..."
Sophie looked down at the phone.
Now that Gattlin was dead, no one would notice one less phone on board was missing.
Moreover, since Gattlin had been helping Odie organize the Minton International gala, this phone likely contained ample evidence regarding Minton International's misdeeds. If she could take this phone with her, it would bolster her leverage against Odie.

The docks at Devonport were bustling with people coming and going daily. Adler and Colby personally arrived at the docks to stake it out, with hundreds of their men lurking around.
"Colby, something's not right. By all accounts, Odie's yacht should have already arrived, but up to now, there hasn't even been a shadow of a yacht in sight."
Colby frowned, asking, "What about the tracking?"
"It stopped a while ago. Probably Odie turned off his phone, so the background tracking doesn't work."
Colby's brows furrowed tighter, and just then, his phone buzzed with a ringtone.
Opening his phone somewhat wearily, Colby's eyes lit up upon seeing the message. "It's Sophie."
"What?" Adler turned around to see the message on Colby's phone.
Although it was from an unfamiliar number, the message content was clear: Odie hadn't arrived at the coast as planned and was currently in wait, suspected of heading towards Duskhaven.
Colby read the word "Duskhaven," and his eyes grew colder.
