Odie didn't even glance at it before he handed the medicine to Sophie, saying, "Take it."

"No!" Sophie almost reflexively refused Odie's request.

Odie frowned, "You refuse to take medicine when you're sick. Seems like you want to end up in the hospital."

"Who's sick? Why would anyone in their right mind take birth control pills for no reason?"

Sophie outright mentioned the words "birth control pills," causing Odie to pause and ask, "What birth control pills?"

Jonah also looked at Sophie with a puzzled expression.

Sophie held the box of pills in her hand and said, "These are birth control pills, Mr. Odie. Don't tell me you don't even know what birth control pills are!" Odie frowned as he stared at the box in Sophie's hand, which clearly had no mention of anything related to contraception.

"Levonorgestrel tablets, tell me where it mentions birth control?" Sophie couldn't help but laugh in frustration.

The CEO of Minton International was s grown man, and he knew nothing about birth control pills.

Sophie, frustrated, nodded repeatedly and said, "Fine, then why on earth are you making me take medicine out of the blue?"

"You said you had a stomachache. I asked the staff here, and she said this would help, so I had someone buy it for you, Sophie. Don't be ungrateful." Odie was obviously displeased.

The waitress hurried over and said, "Ms. Sophie, Mr. Odie said you had a stomachache. I usually use it to manage my period cramps, so I..."

The waitress hesitated to continue.

Sophie suddenly remembered that she had been in pain ever since eating at the restaurant the day before, and it got worse this morning after a shocking incident last night, so she casually mentioned it to Odie.

He had actually taken it to heart.

Sophie, feeling awkward, said, "Maybe... there's been a misunderstanding. I said I had a stomachache because I had indigestion, not because of my period."

"I'm so sorry, my bad, I

misunderstood your situation. I'll go

buy some medicine for

stomachaches right away." The waitress, afraid of Odie's

punishment, quickly grabbed the box

of medicine from the table and ran out with a flushed face.

The crisis was averted.

Odie signaled with his eyes towards the red wine near Sophie, saying, "Still afraid I might drug you?"

"Mr. Odie, you're accustomed to the finest beauties, so naturally, you wouldn't bother with me. Why would I fear you drugging me?" Saying this, Sophie downed the red wine in front of her.

Just then, a bodyguard suddenly burst in. "Mr. Odie! Colby..."

The guard's words were cut short as he was struck in the back with a stun gun, collapsing to the ground powerless.

Then, the sound of numerous footsteps followed, and Jonah immediately stood in front of Odie, saying coldly, "Sir, it's an ambush."

Odie had thought James was coming, but to his surprise, the person who appeared at the door was Colby.

A large group of people flooded into the room, surrounding it completely.

Colby, in military attire with a dark

overcoat lazily draped over his shoulders and military boots that exuded an assertive aura, stood at the door. His sharp-featured face looked a bit weary, yet he stood there with a grim expression.

"Colby."

Odie smiled, but his eyes were filled with a coldness. Sophie felt the palpable tension between the two men. They... knew each other?
