Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 574

"Mr. Odie, back in the day, Perry lost a significant amount of money at our establishment, leading to the Russell family's bankruptcy. I suspect Sophie's closeness to you might have ulterior motives. Should we...?"

Gattlin made a throat-slitting gesture.

"No, keep her. I'll handle this."

Gattlin was surprised. "You're going to handle it personally? Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you?"

"Did you say she's shooting a reality show on our island?"

"Yes, but the shooting has been put on hold due to some public opinion issues. However, the lease is still active, so I think their crew and cast can't leave just yet."

"Get ready. I indeed fancy a change of scenery for my vacation."

Gattlin quickly added, "Mr. Odie, but it's not just Sophie on the island; James is there too. Should we...?"

Before Gattlin could finish, Odie's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Are you trying to tell me what to do?"

"Not at all!" Gattlin lowered his head in fear.

"Do as I say."

"Yes, Mr. Odie!"

After Gattlin left, Odie stared at Sophie's photo on his computer, revealing a cold smile. "Sophie... the Russell family's precious daughter... Interesting."

As the night deepened, Sophie woke up in bed, feeling sore all over. She struggled to get up, only to hear the housemaid, who was changing her towels, exclaim joyfully, "Ms. Sophie, you're awake!"

The room quickly buzzed with activity as the maid turned on the light and asked, "Do you feel unwell anywhere else?"

"My head feels heavy, and my feet light." Sophie briefly described how she felt, which was much better than she did during the day.

Looking around at the decor and then at the maid standing by the bed, Sophie asked, "Where am I?" This clearly wasn't the small courtyard rented by the production team.

"This is..."

Before the maid could finish, Colby came in with a bowl of hot soup, saying, "It's Mr. Gordon's house."

"Mr. Gordon?" Sophie was puzzled.

When did Gordon come to the island? She had no idea.

Colby sat down by the bed, blew on the spoonful of hot soup, and said, "You haven't eaten in a day. Have some to regain your strength."

Sophie, still groggy from sleep, started eating the soup spoon by spoon as Colby fed her.

Adler and William also came in, both with dark circles under their eyes.

Sophie frowned and pointed at their eyes, asking, "What happened to you two?"

"Ms. Sophie, I'm William, Mr. Gordon's personal physician." William, the gentleman, came up to Sophie and said, "My dear lady, please allow me to examine you..."

He didn't finish his sentence before Adler hit him on the back of the head.

Adler said fiercely, "Focus on the medical care!"

Sophie asked, "How long have you guys been without sleep?"

Adler pointed at himself, "Me? About three days. I managed to get some sleep on the plane."

Then, Adler pointed at William. "This guy, one day. He gets airsick."

William resentfully said, "I wanted to sleep, but Colby wouldn't let us. He thinks no one would be around to take care of you if you awoke, Ms. Sophie. So, we ended up playing poker all night. I must say, poker is profoundly strategic."
