Legends say that the treasure of Devonport has always been clutched tightly by the four great families, and only a handful know of its existence. Over a century has passed, and hardly anyone searches for the Devonport treasure anymore. If someone were to claim it, the fortune could rebuild Russell Enterprises a hundred times over.
"Alright, if you can truly help me overthrow Colby and seize the Devonport treasure, I promise to aid you in rebuilding Russell Enterprises, allowing you to once again be the lady of the esteemed Russell family."
"Deal."
Sophie extended her hand, and as her fingertips touched Odie's, their agreement was sealed.
"Alright, then I'll be on my way, looking forward to Mr. Odie's next move."
Sophie left with a swagger.
After she was gone, Jonah spoke up, "Mr. Odie, can we really trust her?"
"A high-society lady, fallen into bankruptcy and reduced to a man's accessory, eager to rebuild the Russell family and reclaim her status – it's perfectly normal. There's nothing to doubt."
"But Sophie claims she knows the secret to the Devonport treasure. If she really knew, why wouldn't she get it herself?"
Odie replied, "The Russell family is only one of the four major families, not the leader. The little she knows wouldn't lead her to the Devonport treasure."
"So, Mr. Odie, you're still going along with this?"
"Having something is better than nothing. By using this opening with Sophie, I'll find a way to pry into the other families."
One is the carefree head of Tredgold Corporation, Adler.
Another is his arch-enemy, Colby.
And then there's Gordon, the most cunning leader of the major families, the most knowledgeable about the secrets.
