NovelEnglishChapter 597 "Ms. Sophie, is it something important? Do you needto help you look for it?" The maid's words pulled her back from her thoughts, and Sophie replied with feigned calmness, "It's nothing important, just something quite expensive. If it's lost, it's lost. No need to look for it." "Alright then, you rest up. My nis Polly. Just callif you need anything, Ms. Sophie." "Do you know where we are heading?" "We're heading back to Devonport. We'll be docking in three days." Hearing this from Polly didn't surprise Sophie much.
Odie had actually cto Devonport, and it seemed they wouldn't be leaving anytsoon. But... she needed to find a way to tell Colby that she was still alive.

Odie didn't care about the specifics of her treatment as long as it could get her back to health within three days.
Sophie had to endure a daily regimen of IV drips, ini and edication, practically becoming a walking pharmacy.
After examining Sophie's condition, the doctor said, "Starting today, you can reseating solid food. Don't just drink soup. It doesn't have much nutritional value. It only provides carbohydrates." "So I should avoid certain foods and stick to bland ones, right?" "Exactly." "Good, I'm hungry." Sophie looked towards the door at Polly and said, "Polly, could you prepare lunch, please?" "Right away." Polly nodded but hadn't even left the room when Gattlin, who had cto keep an eye on her, arrived.
Gattlin spoke with a mocking tone, "Ms. Sophie, you sure are good at bossing people around. Don't forget, you are Mr. Odie's prisoner!" Polly stood at the door, looking troubled, so Sophie said, "Well, in that case, Polly, you don't need to go. Gattlin, could you prepare lunch for me, please?" "What did you say? Who do you think you are, askingto prepare lunch for you?" "I'm someone of use to Mr. Odie." Sophie spoke calmly, "Odie has promisedrespect. Do you also want to be thrown into the sea to feed the fish for not taking your boss' words seriously?" Gattlin knew Odie's temper. He felt deflated and didn't dare insult Sophie further, and he turned to leave.
Polly, looking scared, said, “Ms. Sophie, you shouldn't offend Gattlin. He's Mr. Odie's right-hand man, he...” "I know you're scared of him, but to me, he's just another one of Odie's dogs. And I've never been afraid of dealing with dogs." Sophie moved closer to Polly and whispered, "Do you have a phone?" Polly quickly shook her head, saying, "People on the ship aren't allowed to have electronic devices." No electronic devices...

At that moment, Gattlin called over a few maids to bring Sophie's lunch.
Sophie noticed that the meal was only plain broth and saltedvegetables. She put down her cutlery and asked, "Is this all you're giving me?" "What else do you want to eat?"
Sophie said with difficulty, "The doctor mentioned I shouldn't just eat soup, and salted vegetables are nutritionally void. Gattlin, do you intentionally not wantto recover?" "You..."
Gattlin was furious but held back. If he had treated Sophie like any other prey, by now, he would have already lashed her with a belt! X
