Odie immediately removed the mask from the woman's face, revealing an entirely unfamiliar face beneath.

Her voice was different, and her appearance didn't match.

Jean's face flushed with embarrassment, and she reached out to grab Odie's collar.

Odie's gaze narrowed dangerously, and then he growled, "Get out!"

Gattlin, who was outside the door, hurriedly pushed it open, only to find Jean lying on the bed, already ensnared and confused, with no idea what had happened.

"Mr. Odie... this..."

Odie's face darkened with rage as he barked, "Open your damn eyes! What have you brought me?"

Gattlin was baffled. He hadn't seen Sophie's face and naturally didn't recognize whether the person in front of him was the one Odie was looking for.

"I personally oversaw it. There's no way it's wrong!"

Upon closer inspection of Jean's face, Gattlin immediately recognized Jean as the woman who had been drinking with Sophie. Gattlin's expression darkened as he said, "Mr. Odie! It was that woman's trickery!'

He had found Jean and convinced her to deliver a drink to Sophie, promising her a handsome reward. Little did he expect Jean to be so easily outmaneuvered by Sophie and then swapped onto Odie's bed! Gatlin quickly said, "Mr. Odie, I'll send someone to fetch her right away!"

"Do you think she's as foolish as you? By the time you realize it, she's already long gone!"

"This..." Gattlin had nothing to say and braced himself for a reprimand.

Odie glanced coldly at Jean, who was writhing on the bed, and commanded, "Throw her out! And you, get lost!"

Hearing this, Gattlin hurriedly carried Jean away.

Odie's gaze was icy. It was the first time in years that a woman had dared to play such a trick on him. If he hadn't let that woman taste his methods, he would have swallowed this insult for nothing.

Meanwhile-

Sophie had already gotten into Colby's car. Adler, noticing Sophie wearing a dress completely different from the one she had on when she left, couldn't help but ask, "Sophie, what happened to your dress?"

"I lost it."

"Lost it?" Adler was stunned, and said, "That dress cost tens of thousands! If you had to lose it, at least lose it to me!"

Sophie was now wearing Jean's pink dress, which was somewhat ill-fitting but didn't give anything away.

Sophie said, "The gala at Minton International is members-only, attended by some of Devonport's biggest business and philanthropic names, many of whom I hadn't expected."

"Minton International is a major family, so it's no surprise that many people come to curry favor. What's so unusual about that!"

Adler was unimpressed, but Sophie simply stated, "A normal gala wouldn't be unusual, but Minton International's gala is a huge brothel in disguise."

Hearing Sophie's words, Colby frowned, and Adler slammed on the brakes, almost crashing into a tree on the side of the road, "What? What did you say?"

Jenna, in the passenger seat, was also stunned. "Sophie, you couldn't have been mistaken, could you?"

"The climax of the gala was everyone's revelry. Those internet celebrities, stars, and models were all playthings in the hands of these businesspeople. I saw them entering private themed rooms in pairs. Maids cleaned up the venues for them. Whether in corridors, on the rooftop, or in restrooms, these people put on masks to unleash all their beastliness. It was disgusting."

Sophie could still picture two men sandwiching a woman between them. Colby immediately said, "Let's head to the hospital."

"Alright, alright!"

Knowing the dangers of such filthy places, where it was easy to contract viruses, Adler agreed.

Sophie shook her head, saying, "Don't bother. Let's go back. I didn't use their restrooms or eat any of their food."

Jenna said, "Better safe than sorry. Colby is just worried about you."

While Adler drove, he cursed Minton International as beasts.

It was already known that Minton International was involved in shady businesses like pornography, gambling, and drugs, but this was unexpected. They also had a members-only orgy. No wonder Minton International had a rule that male guests couldn't bring family members, and female guests from outside the entertainment industry needed to make reservations in advance and must possess a certain status to attend.

So that was the situation!

At the hospital, Sophie underwent a checkup, and once it was confirmed there were no issues, the group drove to the Aldridge family estate.

Throughout the journey, Colby held Sophie's hand tightly, never once letting go.

Sophie looked back at Colby, noticing that although he appeared calm, his eyes hid a storm.

Sophie said, "I decided to gather intelligence. Don't be so grim."

Colby gripped Sophie's hand even tighter, his voice deepening as he said, "I know."

He understood that Sophie was not like most women. She was intelligent, brave, and capable of extricating herself from difficult situations.
