"In your dreams!"

Sophie seized the moment while Sam was distracted and dashed to the door. She tried to unlock it only to find that the indoor lock had stopped working!

Outside, the housekeeper had inserted a spare key into the lock, effectively jamming it so that it couldn't be operated from the inside.

"Help! Help!" Sophie pounded on the door, shouting loudly.

Meanwhile, downstairs, the music was deafening. Jessica, dressed in a fiery red dress, was performing an impromptu senior tango with Perry, completely oblivious to the commotion upstairs. "Stop wasting your effort! You're mine today!"

Sam advanced and grabbed Sophie, but she pushed him away fiercely, smashing a water glass on the table to the ground. She picked up a shard of glass and held it to her neck, "If you come closer, I'll slit my throat, and then all your and your sister's scheming will have been for nothing!"

Sam's face turned pale. He couldn't let Sophie die here!

"Damn it! Are you threatening me?"

Sam lunged forward to snatch the glass shard from Sophie's hand, but she didn't give him a chance. A trace of blood now marked her neck.

Seeing this, Sam dared not move rashly.

At this moment, Colby had been waiting outside the Russell family's house for quite some time.

As the time of his appointment with Sophie drew near, Colby tried calling her, but it went unanswered.

Colby glanced at the mansion of the Russell family, his eyes settling on a second-floor window. From his angle, he could clearly see a woman leaning against the balcony glass, holding something. That silhouette was Sophie!

Realizing something was off, Colby immediately flung open his car door and stormed into the Russell property.

"Who are you? This is a private residence. You can't just barge in! Security! Security!" The gardener at the door saw Colby rushing in and hurriedly called for security.

By the time security arrived, Colby had already kicked open the grand door.

Perry was slightly tipsy, and the house still echoed with loud music. Everyone was stunned by Colby's sudden appearance, including Jessica.

Isaac's face was filled with resentment. If it hadn't been for Colby, he would never have gone to jail!

The next second, Perry immediately turned off the music. "Colby, what are you doing here? Today is our family gathering..."

From the moment he entered, Colby had been searching for the room where Sophie was locked up. He immediately dashed upstairs, and under everyone's astonished gazes, he headed straight for Sophie's

room.

Jessica feared that her plot would unravel, and quickly yelled at the security, "What are you waiting for? Stop him!"

"Yes, ma'am!"

Several security guards also rushed up, but Colby had already located Sophie's room by following the sounds. Outside the room, the maid looked terrified. "Who, who are you!"

"Stay back! Get away!" Sophie's weak voice of resistance reached Colby's ears.

Colby's gaze was fierce. "Open the door!"

Intimidated by Colby's presence, the maid quickly moved to unlock the door.

Sam roared, "Who told you to open the door? You've ruined everything!"

As soon as Sam finished speaking, he was met with a kick from Colby that sent him sprawling to the floor.

"Who the hell do you think you are!"
