NovelEnglishCaelum couldn't help but shake his head. The young lady from the Russell family was indeed charming, but unfortunately, it seemed their own Aiden wasn't lucky enough to win her favor.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMeanwhile, Sandy and Angelo had to rush to the airport without any delay. Sophie always felt there was something fishy about Caelum's sudden illness. He seemed perfectly healthy the last tthey met. So, what went wrong so suddenly? "Sophie, either eat your food or don't, but could you stop poking your rice with your fork? You're turning perfectly good rice into mush!" Odie said, frowning deeply across the table.
Snapping back to reality, Sophie noticed she had poked several holes in the rice in her bowl. While dishing out svegetables for Sophie, Colby, without looking up, said to Odie, "Focus on your own meal and stop meddling." Feeling frustrated but unable to retort, Odie kept his silence.
Jonah burst in through the door, exclaiming, "Boss, we found an underground passage beneath the Pearl Hotel. Following it, we discovered it leads straight to a church." "A church?" Colby asked.
"Yeah, a big one on Chemical Road. There's a priest who gives sermons there during the day," Jonah explained. "What kind of sermons? The Bible?" Colby inquired.

It felt like a ritual, and we were the intended offerings." Replaying the scenes from the previous night in her mind, Sophie continued, "Vanessa mentioned she squandered her fortune to setup in a death trap. I think that money didn't go to Daniel but to the person behind all this." Odie frowned, "Squander her fortune? What fortune does the White family even have left? Isn't all of the White family's money in Colby's hands?" Colby calmly responded, "I've returned it all." Odie wanted to call Colby a fool. To return such a vast fortune. But then, Odie's gaze shifted towards Sophie and in aminstant, he understood everything. "It seems you truly love Sophie. To avoid Vanessa's entanglements and not owe the White family any favors, you've returned all of their fortune." Hearing this, Sophie was also somewhat surprised, "You... when did you return it?" "I've said before, I'd clear all obstacles in our path. Besides, it's not a big deal." Over the years abroad, Colby had been cultivating a clean force. The White family had long ceased to be of importance to him. Moreover, he' still had the connections he'd made over the years. Only by returning the White family's wealth to Vanessa could he free himself from owing them anything.
Hearing this, Odie couldn't help but sneer. To go to such lengths for a woman was indeed foolish. He would never do such a thing for a woman in the future.
