After hearing that, Odie paused for a moment and said, "So, she's your rival in love? Are you jealous of James, and that's why you dislike her?"
"Jealous? Where did you get that idea?"
"Then why does her presence make you dislike Ricardo?"
As Odie's explanations got more confusing, Sophie, feeling muddled, replied, "Anyway, Nichole is always against me. I don't like her. Plus, she was the other woman in my previous marriage. The enemy of my friend is my enemy! It's perfectly reasonable for me to dislike her and Ricardo."
"You're right, an enemy of a friend is indeed an enemy. Since you don't want me to help him, I'll do you this favor."
"Really?"
"Really."
Sophie looked skeptically at Odie and asked, "You're being surprisingly agreeable, aren't you?"
"What? Don't believe me? Then I'll go right now and talk to him about the loan."
"Don't!"
Sophie immediately called out to stop Odie, and Odie smirked slightly at her reaction.
Realizing she had been played, Sophie glared at Odie, "Fine, Mr. Odie, go if you wish, but don't blame me when you lose money!"
After saying that, Sophie simply laid back down.
Odie stopped teasing Sophie and said, "Get some rest, and don't forget you're now working for me."
Just then, Polly entered the room, "Sir, the doctor has already been called."
"Have him check Ms. Sophie's wounds. They got wet today and might get infected."
"Yes, boss."
Odie looked back at Sophie lying on the bed and said, "Don't forget, I'll be testing your knowledge before tomorrow morning."
After Odie left, Sophie grabbed a pillow nearby and threw it towards the door.

Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free.
