The security guards were hauled out of the casino by other staff, their pitiful cries echoing from outside.
Colby stood up from his chair, his voice icy and detached. "I've been gone a few months, and you've already sold the place to someone else? Looks like I wasn't strict enough, Oran. Wouldn't you agree?"
Oran, wiping sweat from his brow, hastily responded, "Mr. Colby, it was all orders from above. I admit my mistake... I'll spill everything! The Pollard family approached us for a partnership. With you gone, Director Dominic took it upon himself to collaborate with them.
We didn’t know they were already in cahoots with the Mintons. We couldn't go against his orders..."
"Dominic?" Colby let out a cold laugh.
Oran nodded vigorously, "It was all his doing! We all thought you knew, Colby..."
Colby looked bored with Oran's excuses, and just casually held Sophie's hand.
Oran, worried that Colby didn't believe him, tried to continue, but Colby gestured to the staff, his tone relaxed yet commanding. "Whoever can shut him up gets his spot."
The staff exchanged looks before simultaneously moving to silence Oran. Oran begged for mercy but couldn't withstand the barrage of punches and kicks.
Colby lowered his voice, "Can you handle this?"
Sophie frowned, "Just don't kill him."

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. 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. More about what’s up with Gordon....
