Chapter 1521
Kena had her own demons tied to this place. It was right here, in the Pearl Hotel, where she had taken her father
Daniel's life, yet she always managed to keep her cool on the outside.
Outside, Pearl Hotel was its usual bustling self, people coming and going. Sophie held Kena's hand and led her
inside. The night was getting darker, casting a shadowy glow on Sophie's face, giving her a mysterious, almost
chilly aura. Together, Kena and Sophie were like a breath of fresh air, turning heads as they walked in.
Everyone around them was stealing glances, especially since Sophie's rocky marriage with Colby was the talk of
the town. Sophie noticed the stares and responded with a faint, knowing smile. Folks were eager to see how

Just outside the hotel, Mr. Donny was busy greeting guests. When he spotted Sophie and Kena, he couldn't hide
his smug grin. Last tthey met, Mr. Donny wasn't even in their league. Now, here he was, the host of the
evening's shindig.
"Ms. Sophie, Mr. Gibbs, long tno see! How have you been?" Mr. Donny approached them with an eagerness
that was hard to miss. Most of the guests seemed more interested in the than the party itself. Once,
Sophie would've been the star of the show. But now, with the looming divorce from Colby, no one knew when
things might fall apart. To them, she was just another woman, not someone to fear.
"Mr. Donny, you seem to be doing well! Where's Timothy?" Sophie asked, glancing around as if she didn't already
know Timothy had passed. Just as expected, Mr. Donny's face slipped for a second. Timothy had been thrown
under the bus by Joseph and was now dead. Everyone in the know was aware, but no one dared to bring it up
with Mr. Donny. Yet here was Sophie, doing just that.
"My son... he's gone," Mr. Donny said, struggling to keep his voice steady.
"What happened? He was fine the last | heard. didn't even know, Mr. Donny... my sympathies." Sophie shook her
head, pretending to be genuinely sorry. Mr. Donny's face twitched, but he held it together and showed them into
the banquet hall.
All eyes were on Sophie, amazed that she had the nerve to rile up Mr. Donny{n Summerfield. With Colby out of
the picture, she was on her own.

"Sophie, you're playing with fire. This is Spellman territory," Kena warned.
"Isn't this supposed to be Odie's turf? How cyou never mentioned anything about the Pearl Hotel?" Sophie
asked.
Kena paused. “I thought it was no
big deal, so I didn't bring it up. Since Odie left for Devonport, Summerfield's changed. The Spellman family
snapped up Pearl Hotel almost overnight."
"When did that happen?"
"Right around the tyou and Colby were last here," Kena replied, thinking back to when Odie first ran into
trouble.
