Odie watched Sophie's performance quietly, his voice calm and unhurried, “The meager salary S Corporation's offering you is hardly enough for a lady of your stature to splurge in a day. You should be thrilled I quit on your behalf.”
Then, Odie paused before adding, “Besides, you seemed quite pleased just a moment ago.”
Pleased, she was, of course.
The resignation letter Odie had willingly provided was a golden ticket for Tricia. With her skills, she could trace it back to Odie. With her testimony and the evidence in Tricia’s hands, they could charge Odie with unlawful detention at any time.
Sophie had thought Odie was a tough character, but it turned out he was not only ignorant of the law but also blatantly disregarded it.
Sophie chuckled to herself. It seemed getting close to Odie wouldn’t be so difficult after all. Perhaps she could even gather some useful information about Devonport from him, including the truth behind the car accident that involved both her and Colby's parents.
After getting out of the car, Booker escorted Sophie and Odie to a luxurious hotel. Before leaving, Booker glanced at Sophie to ensure both she and Odie had returned to their rooms. Then he turned to the bodyguards and said, “Keep an eye on this place. Don’t let a fly get away!”
“Yes!”
Booker walked into the hotel lobby and immediately called Ricardo.
At that moment, Ricardo was at a celebratory dinner at Devonport, having successfully collaborated with major merchants to stand against S Corporation. Seeing Booker’s call, he stepped out to the corridor to answer.
“Odie’s there?”
“Mr. Ricardo, Ms. Sophie is with him.”
“Oh?”
