Hearing Odie''s voice, Sophie''s heart skipped a beat. If Odie walked in now, Logan was toast.


    Outside the door, Jonah frowned. "Boss, I''ve got the key card. Why don''t we just go in?"


    Odie ignored him and called out, "Sophie, I''m being pretty polite right now. Don''t make me break down the door."


    Sophie nced at Logan, who already had his gun out. She quickly grabbed his hand to stop him from shooting and yelled, "Hold on! Just give me a minute!"N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    Her voice was frantic, and Odie could hear the tension. "What? Did you manage to hide a man in there already?"


    Sophie''s heart raced at his urate guess. "No! I''m taking a shower, and I''m not dressed!"


    "A shower? With everything happening outside, you''re showering? Do you think I''m that dumb?" Odie''s voice dripped with impatience. "Hurry up, or I''ming in." "Boss, don''t waste time. She''s been in there forever. Something''s definitely up!”


    Jonah swiped the key card, opening the door to an empty room, except for the firmly shut bathroom door.


    Sophie''s panicked voice came from inside. "Who said you coulde in?"


    Odie frowned. "Get out! All of you, out!"


    Sophie''s voice was urgent. The bathroom door was tightly shut, and Odie took a few steps closer. "What are you doing in there?"


    "I told you, I''m showering! Odie, if youe in, you''re dead!"


    Odie chuckled coldly. "Showering? Alone, or with Colby?"


    He flung the bathroom door open. Steam filled the room, and a wave of hot air hit his face. He could barely make out Sophie in the bathtub, her Ck and shoulders exposed her


    face flushed from the heat


    Odie instinctively closed the door. Jonah stepped forward. "Boss, she..."


    "Get out!" Odie snapped, startling Jonah, who quickly left.


    Inside the bathroom, Sophie stuttered, "Odie! What the hell are you doing? When I get out, I''ll gouge your eyes out!"


    Odie looked flustered for a moment.


    He crossed his arms, his back to the bathroom. "Sophie, have you lost it? Who takes a bath in the middle of the night?"


    "What else was I supposed to do? Why don''t you ask about the drugs you''ve got at the banquet hall? I''m human. I react!" "What drugs? What are you talking about?"


    Odie''s question was reflexive, but he


    quickly realized she meant the

    parties. The scent was somon he never considered Sophie''s reaction to it.


    Sophie didn''t want him to enter just then and with her flushed face, Odie''s mind filled with scenarios.


    Just then, the bathroom door swung open. Sophie stood there wrapped in a towel, her long legs catching his eye.


    Odie quickly turned away. "Sophie,ing out in just a towel? Are you waiting for someone to take advantage of you?"
