Chapter 1519
Sophie sneaked a look at Odie. Even though Harold had kept things on the down low, Odie still felt like he'd been
disrespected. Back in the day, just dropping Odie's nin Summerfield would make even the biggest shots
step aside and take the long way around him. But ever since Joseph butted in, the power gin Summerfield's
been flipped on its head. Odie got the Mintons back under his belt, but now he's dealing with the whole reform
mess. Summerfield's never been more messed up. Everything looks calm on the surface, but underneath, it's a
storm waiting to happen. Nobody's ready to let go of the Summerfield crown.
"I'm heading back now," Odie suddenly announced, throwing Sophie off. "Jonah, hold your boss back!" she
pleaded. Jonah, who was now pretty much taking cues from Sophie, didn't miss a beat and blocked Odie. Odie's
face turned stormy: "Who's the boss here,or her?"

"Boss... you really shouldn't go out right now," Jonah advised. The Silent Shadows were probably staked out
around the Aldridge place, ready to pounce the second Odie stepped out.
Sophie chimed in, "We've still got Kena, don't we? The Gibbs family has their own place in Summerfield now, so
the Spellman family won't act on a whim. Their invite tomeans they can't be dumb enough to try something
in Summerfield. Plus, your Mintons in Summerfield are not to be messed with by the Spellmans."
Sophie's words seemed to calm Odie a bit. "Yeah, my people, the Spellmans wouldn't dare mess with them," he
agreed.
"So, it's not such a big deal," Sophie said, trying to reassure him. "I'll be in Summerfield for just a day to see
what the Spellman family's up to. If things go sideways, your crew will backup. The Spellman family knows
better than to crossif they want to stay in Summerfield."
Odie gave a nod, albeit reluctantly. There weren't any better options right then. But it seemed like the Spellman
family was tangled up with The Silent Shadows, and The Silent Shadows seemed poised to back the Mintons as a
second major player. If the Spellman family pulled it off, the Mintons' stature in Summerfield would be heavily
hit.
As Sophie was about to head upstairs to pack for her Summerfield trip, Harold spoke up, "Sophie, there's
something you need to know." "What's that?" she asked.
"According to the Aldridge family's intel, the Spellman family didn't just invite you; Colby's on the list too."
That made Sophie pause. Harold went on, "Colby hasn't been around lately, but if you bump into him at the
dinner... try to keep your emotions in check."
"What, worried I'll flip out at the

party? My emotions are more in
check than you think," Sophie replied, shaking her head. She'd been working hard not to let thoughts of Colby
consher. And Colby hadn't been in touch either. This was the longest they'd gone without seeing each other.
Hearing that Colby would be at the dinner stirred up feelings she thought she'd tamped down. It really had been
ages since she last saw him.
"Sophie." Odie called her name. When she turned, he slipped something into her hand with
ninja-like swiftness. She couldn't et
even catch what it was, just heard Odie say, "Open it when you get to Summerfield. If things go south, this might
just save your life.
