"Didn't you check out the third floor yourself? Why are you asking me?"
Facing Odie's question, Sophie didn't answer immediately. Instead, she made her way over to his desk. Odie frowned slightly, ready to shut his laptop, but Sophie blocked him. She moved to his side, trying to catch a glimpse of what scandalous video he had been watching.
Odie was quicker, closing the video before she could see anything.
Odie frowned, "Sophie, what are you up to?"
"Nothing at all," she said, though her actions spoke differently. She took advantage of Odie's brief lapse in vigilance, grabbing the laptop. Odie stood up immediately, his face darkening. "Sophie!"
Sophie reopened the video file. The decor and setup in the video were identical to the third floor of Minton International, clearly showing Odie had been viewing surveillance footage. On the screen, a man and woman were having sex on a bed. The woman's face was full of pain, and the man was none other than Daniel!
Feigning surprise, Sophie said, "I had no idea Mr. Odie had such unique tastes, enjoying these kinds of films."
"Give it back!" Odie snatched the laptop and slammed it shut. "What are you really here for?"
"I was just wondering. Since Ms. Leticia has always been helping you win people over, did she also work on the third floor at some point?"
"And what if she did?"
"Think about it. You fought with Ms. Leticia for my sake. Given her personality, she must despise me. And I, with no power or influence in Summerfield, would be in danger if she decided to act against me one day."
Odie dismissed her concern, "I’m here. She wouldn’t dare do anything to you."
