Chapter 718 Odie pushed Sophie into the bedroom with a strong nudge. Sophie stumbled a few steps, almost losing her balance. She looked at Odie with feigned annoyance and asked, “Mr. Odie, was that really necessary?" Not a word was spoken the whole way home, but as soon as they returned to the Minton estate, Odie's true colors showed.

With a grimace, he coldly said, "If it weren't for the fact that you're somewhat useful to me, you would have been gone long ago!" "I know. How else would I dare to be so bold in front of you?" Sophie made herself comfortable on the sofa, even taking the liberty of pouring herself a glass of red wine as if it were second nature.

Seeing Sophie so relaxed, Odie couldn't help but chuckle. "You really don't hold back, do you?" "I played the piano today until my fingers nearly gave out. A sip of your wine is the least I deserve, Mr. Odie. Don't be so petty." Sophie sipped her wine while carefully observing Odie's expression.

Sensing that Odie wasn't truly angry, she said, "Given how well I performed today, Mr. Odie, could you perhaps answer a question for me?" "Go ahead." "Over the years, how much money had my Uncle Perry actually lost to your casino? And why did you target him?" Perry had squandered the family fortune in her past life, but she had mistakenly blamed James for their downfall. Now, it seemed, the bankruptcy and downfall of the Russell family in her previous life were intricately tied to the Mintons.

"The Minton family business is extensive. The Russell family wasn't the only family to lose money to Minton International. How could I possibly remember exactly how much the Russell family lost to us?" "While many have gambled away their fortunes, Mr. Odie, can you honestly say that you didn't specifically target him? Minton International has dominated Summerfield for so long, so why set your sights on Devonport? Is there, perhaps, ssecret there that the public isn't aware of?" Sophie observed Odie closely, hoping to catch a slip in his facade.

However, Odie simply sat opposite her, leisurely pouring himself a glass of red wine, and said, "The operations of Minton Casino follow strict rules and regulations. Devonport has indeed been a primary target of mine, but any secrets of Devonport... well, they're secrets for a reason. How could I possibly know?" It was clear Odie was deliberately lying.

Rather than focusing on their Summerfield casino, Minton International had specifically targeted Devonport and Perry, clearly aiming at the Russell family.

Perhaps the Russell family's downfall in her previous life was the Minton family's calculated move to penetrate Devonport.

"If you don't know, then never mind. I didn't expect you to tellthe truth anyway." Sophie stood up, nonchalantly looking down at her dress, and said, "Should I take off this dress and wash it thoroughly before returning it?" "What?" Odie frowned, momentarily confused by Sophie's words.

Sophie continued, "This dress belongs to Ms. Leticia, doesn't it? It's improper for an outsider liketo wear it. It would be better to wash it and then return it to you, Mr. Odie." "Keep it for yourself."

Odie instructed Jonah, who was standing by the door, "Jonah, escort her out. "Yes, boss." Jonah stepped forward and led Sophie out,

As Sophie reached the hallway, she saw Polly coming to meet her. Rolly, upon seeing Sophie emerge, was about to greet her but then noticed the dress Sophie was wearing.

Sophie quickly picked up on the brief look of surprise on Polly's face, but Polly quickly composed herself and approached, saying, "Ms. Sophie, the hot water is ready for you/You should go take a bath." X
