The hospital director wiped the sweat from his forehead, terrified that Odie might take out his anger on him. Over half of the Central City Hospital's funding came from Minton International, and with just one word from Odie, his job could be on the line.
Inside the hospital room, Sophie slowly came to from her coma. She was propped up in bed, covered in bruises and cuts, even her forehead was bandaged. Suddenly, Odie burst through the door, startling the nurse. "The patient is resting. You can't just—"
"Out!" Odie roared, and the hospital director quickly gestured for the nurse to leave. Recognizing the powerful man, the nurse turned pale and hurried out.
"Mr. Odie, I'm still lying here. Can't you let me have a moment of peace?" Sophie's voice was weak and tinged with impatience.
Odie frowned. "I need an explanation for what happened today."
"Explanation? What explanation? I'm lying here injured. If you want answers, ask Miss Leticia Gibbs!" Sophie shot back.
At the mention of Leticia, Odie's eyes narrowed. "Are you saying Leticia did this?"
"Leticia had someone ram our car and then doused it with gasoline. If another car hadn’t passed by, I wouldn't have escaped. I might have ended up like Wayne, killed by Leticia," Sophie said, her voice shaking. Leticia’s method of staging an accident was too precise, too practiced.
This wasn't Leticia's first time. The Gibbs family was definitely not just a regular business family.
As Sophie waited for Odie's response, he suddenly grabbed her arm. Instinctively, she tried to pull away, but Odie's grip was strong. He examined her arm, then flipped back the covers. Sophie instinctively slapped him. "What are you doing!"
