Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Sophie stood up and said, "You mentioned earlier that you mistook the car, so which one were you actually planning to cut the brake lines on?" "I......"

Seeing Timothy stutter without giving a proper answer, Odie was itching to kick him. "Answer the question!"

"It was my stepmother's. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

"You realize this is attempted murder, right?"

"...I didn't think it through."

"So, no one put you up to this?"

Timothy shook his head repeatedly. "I can pay for the damages! Whatever it costs!"

"Alright then, I'll be coming by to collect the money in a few days."

Hearing Sophie say she'd come to collect made Timothy nervous, but he eventually agreed.

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, Sophie asked, "And the fuel tank? Did you mess with that too? Was it you who put the lighter in there?"

"...No, it wasn't me!"

Seeing Timothy's panicked look, Sophie nodded and said, "Alright, that's it. Take him away."

"Wait!"

Odie, frowning deeply, said, "We finally caught the guy, and you're letting him go? My gut tells me this guy hasn't said a single truth! We must keep him here! If you can't get it out of him, I will!" "I'm the victim here, and I say we let him go."

Sophie, turning her back to Timothy, gave Odie a knowing look.

Odie knew all too well what that scheming look meant, and in the end, he could only grimace as he had Timothy sent back.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Once Timothy had left, Odie, holding back frustration, told Sophie, "Get in here!"

Sophie shook her head and followed Odie into the study, saying, "Mr. Odie, what's on your mind?"

"That kid was clearly lying, why let him go?"

There was a questioning tone in Odie's voice.

Sophie knew that if she didn't clear things up for Odie, he would probably have a sleepless night.

Sophie casually sat on the couch and said, "Your men wouldn't have taken him without any evidence, right?"

"Of course not!"

"Call them in."

Although Odie didn't understand the purpose behind Sophie's request, he called his men in anyway. One of Odie's men entered, somewhat cautiously saying, "Boss, did you need me for something?"

"Was it the surveillance footage that led you to this kid?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Where's the footage?"

"Right here!"

The man quickly handed the footage over to Odie.

Odie played the video on the computer, showing Timothy sneaking around the car, then cutting the brake lines. He then opened the hood, slashed the fuel tank with a knife, and deftly dropped a lighter into the tank. His actions were smooth and precise, nothing like his earlier hesitant demeanor. "You said Timothy was lying. Do you think I I don't know he was lying? But..

reveal who's behind this." belongs to

Catching him won't me

Odie said coldly, "I have ways to make him talk."

"Given his age, it's debatable whether he even knows who's behind this Catching him is useless, it's better to let him go and play the long game. Since he's a young lord from the Spellman family, we should focus our investigation on the Spellman family instead. don't believe that given enough time,

Timothy won't slip up."
