"Is everything okay?" Sophie tried to appear nonchalant, and the nurse smiled, saying, "Mr. Odie sentto deliver this ointment for your wound. He suggests you apply it yourself." The nurse placed the ointment on the table next to her.
"Odie?" She couldn't believe Odie was being so kind. Still, Sophie nodded politely and said, "Thank you. I'll apply it in a bit." "Alright then, I'll leave you to it." Once the nurse had left, Sophie opened the ointment and sniffed it. Unfortunately, she didn't know much about pharmacology and couldn't tell if it had been tampered with. Deciding it was better to be safe, Sophie casually threw the ointment into the nearby trash can.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe night was deep when Solana arrived at the docks of Devonport.
She saw two men waiting by the street, smoking; one was chubby, and the other was lean. Solana couldn't hide her look of disdain. She said, "Have you completed the task I assigned you?" "We've been waiting here for two days and haven't seen the woman from the photo. If we have to wait any longer, you're going to have to pay us overtime!" Solana found these two henchmen through a casino. Normally, the casino's clientele was involved in all sorts of dealings, including violence, but things in Devonport were a bit quieter. However, since Odie's arrival, the casinos in Devonport had becbustling once more.
If it weren't for her husband's regular gambling haunts, Solana wouldn't have been able to find these two henchmen.
Solana said, "I already paid each of you a hundred thousand each, and you still want more?" The two men exchanged a look, and the chubby one said sarcastically, "Two hundred thousand for the life of the CEO of Burke International's ex-wife! If we weren't in need of money recently, we wouldn't have taken this job." "Besides, our boss is planning to leave soon, and we all need to pull out together. We might not be able to complete this job." "Can't complete it? Then you need to refund me!" Solana was anxious. She had already given all thirty million to her husband to pay off his debts.
If they couldn't kill Sophie on time, wouldn't Bea demand the money from her? "We're businessmen too, don't worry. We've already instructed our colleagues. The moment they see this woman, they'll take care of her!" Hearing this, Solana finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Sophie was dead, she would fulfill the task Bea had given her.
Sophie, who had been sleeping deeply, was suddenly awakened by an urgent knock on the door: "Ms. Sophie!"

Sophie handed her phone to Polly, saying, "You al must have luggage. Keep this phone. Odie probably won't keep employing you. Go to Devonport and give this phone to a man named Colby, or Adler, or James Burke. They will give you a generous reward, and you won't have to do this dangerous kind of work anymore."
Polly nodded vigorously. She had only been temporarily employed on the ship, and once docked, Odie would let all the maids like her leave. X
