NovelEnglishFacing the skeptical stares of the four, Timothy said, "That guy orderedto kill you, but when things went south, the night you caught me, he showed up again. Threateningwith my parents' lives, he forcedto infiltrate your group. I had no choice but to help him." "That makes sense." Sophie nodded but continued, "What I need is a reason to believe you, and you haven't giventhat reason yet." "I..." Timothy looked down and mumbled, "I can't give you a reason." Adler chuckled, "Kid, you just rambled on, and it turns out you have no real evidence to make us trust you?" "If I really wanted to kill Ms. Sophie, I wouldn't have shown up that night, hinting at Mr. Colby to rescue her." Timothy looked earnestly at Sophie and said, "I owe Ms. Sophie my life. If danger comes her way in the future, I am willing to risk my own life to save hers." "Touching words, but I'm not one for empty promises. If you want to prove your loyalty, don't wait for the future; do it now." Sophie took the small computer from Adler and tossed it to Timothy, saying, "Send a message to your people now, stating that Sophie will be going to Burke International alone tomorrow, setting up an ambush." Timothy was stunned.
Adler's eyes widened, "Sophie, I know you're eager to catch the person behind all this, but this is too risky! What if something happens to you on your way to Burke International?" "Think about it, Sophie obviously won't be going there alone. We can set up an ambush halfway and maybe draw out the mastermind." "What if the mastermind doesn't show up and only sends underlings? Wouldn't we be exposing ourselves? Timothy and his family would be doomed too!" Hearing Adler's concern, Jenna paused, "You have a point." Turning to Sophie, Jenna asked, "Sophie... this plan doesn't sound very wise." "That's why I'm actually going alone." Hearing this, Jenna gasped in shock.
"No way." "No way." Two voices spoke in unison. Sophie turned to find Gordon had appeared behind her without her noticing. Rick pushed Gordon forward, and Gordon said calmly, "Going to Burke International alone is too dangerous; you can't go without someone to watch your back." Adler added anxiously, "Exactly, Sophie! I know you want to find out who's behind this, but it's really too risky!" "Sophie, you really should think this through. Both Colby and Mr. Gordon disagree; it's definitely dangerous! There's no turning back if something goes wrong!" Colby frowned deeply, "This time, I won't allow you to put yourself in danger." "The person they want to kill is me. If not me, then who? You?"
Sophie took Colby's hand and said, "I'm not saying I'll go alone without anyone actually, I could take E someone." "Who?"
Sophie glanced at Timothy, who was pinned to the ground, and said "Ish't there a ready made option right here?" Adler pointed at Timothy,
incredulously asking, "Him? How The content is on Er .com! `` if he be trusted? We can't even.
