Seeing Harold standing there, looking like a stranger, Sophie's voice turned icy. "Did you have anything to do with Gordon's condition getting worse?" "I don't have tto waste on you," Harold replied, turning his back on her. He addressed the bodyguards, "Escort Mrs. Costello out." "Yes, sir." The bodyguards started closing in on Sophie, and the murderous look in their eyes didn't escape her. Sensing something was off, she began to back away. Just then, she heard Jenna shout from behind, "Run!" Jenna rushed forward, grabbed Sophie's arm, and the two bolted down the stairs. Sandy, clueless but trusting her gut, realized she needed to run too.
"Get them!" Harold ordered, and a dozen bodyguards took off after them. In a flash of inspiration, Sandy stood her ground right in front of the guards, forcing them into a sudden halt, clearly thrown off by her boldness.

Near the banquet hall's entrance, Sophie and Jenna nearly fainted when they heard her.
Is she serious right now? Who cares about the Pollard family at a tlike this? Predictably, the bodyguards moved to advance, but Harold, from the second floor, barked out, "Don't harm the Pollard family's heiress!" Seeing Harold's hesitation, Sophie and Jenna exchanged hopeful glances.
It worked! Sandy stood tall, but one of the bodyguards quickly shoved her aside and continued after Sophie and Jenna. "Hey! You can't pusharound!" Sandy yelled, fuming but powerless.
Seeing this, Sophie and Jenna Sandy. The bodyguards' faces instinctively turned back to protect turned dark as Sophie and Jenna took refuge behind her.

For the first time, Sandy felt a surge of courage. She took a step forward, and the bodyguards stepped back. Jenna whispered, "Ms. Sandy, it looks like your family's nreally does carry weight." "Of course! Sandy said, her confidence sky-high. "My dad dotes on me. If anything happens toin Devonport, these guys won't what hit them."
Seeing Sandy's smug look, Jenna couldn't help but tease M¤ Sandy, Ve you really do shine with a little bit of
praise. But seriously, pick up the pace! If they get more guys, can your tiny frreally protectand Sophie?"
"Oh, right!" Sandy quickened her pace. Harold, however, didn't order them to continue, the chase. Outside the Regent Hotel, Rick had the car running, ready to whisk them away as soon as they made it out. As the standoff with the bodyguards spilled outside, Harold called out, "No need to chase them."
