Chapter 716 In the deep of night, the Central Square of Summerfield was deserted, long emptied of its usual crowd.
The man who had been holding Sophie suddenly let go of his grip. 'Ms. Sophie, I swear I didn't do that on purpose! You must not tell Colby about this later!" "I know you didn't mean to. If it weren't for you, I'd still be trapped there by now" Sophie had just stepped out of the lounge when she spotted William pacing outside.
"Is Colby here? Did he come?" William grumbled in response, “Of course he came! How could he not? The moment he heard you were in trouble, he flew over. And he draggedalong! I had to reschedule several surgeries because of this! Ms. Sophie, you have to backup here!" Hearing that Colby had arrived, Sophie felt a knot form in her heart and was no longer concerned with helping William. She grabbed William's arm urgently. "Where is he, then? Tell him to go back right away. Odie's men have been ready to catch him for a while!" "Colby loves you more than life itself. How could he leave while you're still here?" William said, "Today is a lucky day. Colby figured that with your smarts, you'd definitely try to reach out to Minton Casino. So, I've been posing as a businessman here, gambling for days, just to wait for your return. Let's get out of here fast. This place is no good for anyone!" "Alright!" Just as Sophie was about to leave with William, she suddenly remembered something and stopped in her tracks, "No, it's too late to leave now! Wayne sawleaving with you; he must have already informed Odie. It won't take more than twenty minutes for Odie to clooking for us. We won't be able to get away!" "What should we do, then?" "The floors above the casino must be where the Mintons conducts its criminal activities. I can't leave now." "But it's too dangerous here. A single misstep could..." William made a snapping gesture with his fingers. "As long as Colby doesn't show up, Odie won't killyet. You guys managed to get to Summerfield smoothly, which means you must have your people here, right?" "Yes! Colby chere on his private jet. Over the years, he's established quite a network in Summerfield." At this, William suddenly had a bad premonition. "Ms. Sophie, please don't tellyou plan to take down the Mintons all at once..." "Why not? Listen to me. Go back now and tell Colby to stay hidden for a while. Tell him to gather all available resources and collect evidence of crimes committed by all the major players in Summerfield. I'll work for Odie on the inside and coordinate with you guys. As soon as I have any information or a lead, I'll inform you immediately!" "That's too risky!" Before William could finish his plea, the sound of a car engine approached from not far away. "It's too late! Go now!" Seeing the car rounding the corner, Sophie quickly pushed William away.

With no other choice, William steeled his heart, turned, and ran towards the street to his car Watching William's car disappear into the distance, Sophie finally breathed a sigh of relief.
