Chapter 1107 Seeing her plan unravel, Sophie lost all interest in sparring with Odie. She breezily remarked, "Yeah, Jonah's right. It's getting late. I should head back." "You..." "I see Mr. Odie's just had a shower. You wouldn't want to catch a chill. Actually, Jonah can driveback. Staying here for the night wouldn't be too bad for you." "Since when do you make decisions for me?" Odie stood up and told Jonah, "Go start the car now." "But boss... Are you sure you want to go out dressed like that?" Leaving in a bathrobe was indeed quite unseemly.
Odie glanced down at his bathrobe, slightly irritated, and threw the towel hanging around his neck at Sophie's face. "Out!" || Sophie tossed the towel back at him and, ignoring Odie's darkening scowl, turned and left the suite.
Jonah followed closely behind her.

Sophie then asked, "Who did Odie meet today?" Jonah remained silent.
Sophie knew she wouldn't get anything out of him. She glanced at the two bodyguards stationed by the door and said, "I'm really curious. If someone could tellwho Odie met today, I'd be willing to offer five million and a small villa." The two bodyguards exchanged looks, almost ready to spill the beans.
But Jonah's glare quickly silenced them.
Jonah coldly said, "Ms. Sophie, anyone who betrays our boss has no place in Summerfield. Are you trying to get someone killed?" "Con, if they can't stay in Summerfield, there's always Devonport. Devonport's not much different from Summerfield." The bodyguards were even more tempted.
Even working for the Minton family their whole lives might not earn them five million.
How is this different from winning the lottery? Jonah continued, "Betraying the boss doesn't just mean losing a place in Summerfield; it likely means losing their lives too. By then, regretting it would be too late." "Look at what you're saying. Isn't there me? Of course, I'd protect our two brothers, letting them go to Devonport with peace of mind." "Then Ms. Sophie can try. See if you can protect them first or if I break their necks first." A murderous aura emanated from Jonah, making the bodyguards immediately abandon their thoughts.

Sophie's smile faded as she said, "Jonah, I was just joking. Don't take it seriously. Five million and a villam & million ℗ḍa aren't smalsums. To find out who your boss met, paying that much would be too much of a loss, don't you think?" "Good that Ms. Sophie understands." Jonah looked away.
At that moment, Odie opened the door.
He glanced at Sophie, then at Jonah, and asked, "I change my clothes, and ver you two start chatting?"
"Just sidle talk. I must say, Jonah really doesn't have a funny bone in his body, unlike Mr. Odie, who E knows how to joke." "I don't joke." Odie walked past Sophie, saying, "Follow me."
