Listening to Odie recount his years in Summerfield, Sophie furrowed her brows, lost in thought. After a moment,

she finally said, "So, you're trying to say you're playing dumb to outsmart everyone?"

"Sophie, were you even paying attention? And do | look stupid to you right now?"

Odie looked visibly annoyed.

He really didn't like hearing Sophie talk like that!

"I was complimenting you! | meant playing dumb to outsmart others, not the other way around."

"You..."

Sophie got to her feet and said, "As long as you know what's going on, that's what matters. Let us handle the

new CEO of the Mintons. You just focus on getting better. Once you're back on your feet, we're counting on you

to help us reclaim the Mintons." As Sophie was about to leave, Odie spoke up suddenly, "Sophie."

"What is it?"

"If you need to suspect someone, suspect James."

"James?"

Sophie was taken aback. In her mind, Odie and James had only ever had one business deal.

Previously, James had stepped in, suggesting a partnership with the Mintons to support Odie.

But that was a one-tthing.

Sophie said, "Didn't you and James start a partnership?"

"It's notand James, it's the Mintons and James," Odie clarified calmly. "That night when you were rescued, it

was James who askedto take over your shares. He was the one who initiated the partnership talks." Sophie

frowned, asking, "What did he promise you?"

"He promiseda solid position at Devonport, saying Burke International was my best partner."

Odie added, "If this was all just a schby James, then your ex-husband... he's even using you." Listening to

Odie, Sophie's face remained impassive.

James had always been like that.

She had foolishly believed that the misunderstandings between her and James were resolved.

For Burke International, James had really schemed well...

No wonder he becthe head of Burke International.

"Thanks, got it."

Sophie turned to leave.

Watching her go, Odie called out, "If you want to get to the bottom

veinet

it's best to ask your ex-husband."

‘Bang’

Sophie slammed the door.

Odie leaned back on the bed, closing his eyes to rest.

He muttered to himself, "Such poor taste in men."

Sophie wandered into the courtyard of Burke Estate, looking at the blooming red roses. Her mind drifted back to

many years ago, when she was young and James was just a boy, and he held her hand as they walked home.

That simple hand-holding had sparked a sense of dependence, and she had developed a fondness for James.

As she grew older, seeing James again had laid bare her girlish affections.

From her hopeful dreams to the crushing disillusionment, it had taken her half a lifetto

understand. Content belong vel

She thought she had figured it all out, but she never expected James to hide so much from her.

Was it really James?

Sophie kept asking herself.

But there seemed to be no answer.

Just then, Sophie looked up.

Seeing the swing in front of her, she felt a sudden wave of recognition.

Slowly, Sophie approached it, gently pushing the swing. A sense of familiarity washed over her.
