Chapter 1604
Reece was more than just someone to her.
He was once a comrade-in-arms, and she wanted to know exactly what ties Reece had with The Silent Shadows.
She also wanted to find out if their days fighting side by side were genuine or just a facade.
Many things must come to an end, and a relationship isn't over just because one person says it is.
"I'm with Sophie on this one."
After Harold spoke, Adler hesitantly added, "After all, we've known each other for so long, I believe he wouldn't harm Sophie, so I'm with her too."
"Have you all lost your minds? What if something happens because we trusted Reece?"
"If something happens, I'll protect her."
Colby stated this calmly from the side.
Seeing Sophie determined to go her own way, Jenna took a deep breath and said, "Fine, then I'll bring more people and wait outside the mountains. If anything happens, we can move in for a rescue immediately." "Okay."
Sophie agreed.
"Ms. Sophie, I want to go too."
From upstairs, Jonah had come down without anyone noticing.
Knowing Jonah was concerned about Odie, Sophie said, "I do need someone to watch my back if I'm going in alone. Jonah, you come with me."
Jonah was momentarily stunned when he heard Sophie was willing to take him along.
He hadn't dared to hope he could accompany Sophie into the valley.
But he quickly understood, realizing Sophie knew he was anxious about his boss's safety, and he said, "Thank you, Ms. Sophie."
After saying goodbye to everyone, Sophie announced, "Let's get ready, we're setting off now."
Colby glanced at Sophie and said, "Sophie, come with me."
Everyone exchanged puzzled looks, wondering what Colby needed to say to Sophie at this moment.
Sophie didn't ask but silently followed Colby.
Back in the room, Colby took a new handgun out of the drawer. This gun had a longer range than normal handguns and was compact and lightweight, making it ideal for a woman. en
Colby handed the gun to Sophie, saying, "Remember how to use it?"
"I remember. Mr. Shaw taught me himself."
Sophie held the handgun, noticing the worry in Colby's eyes, and said, "Do you trust me, Colby?"
"I will always trust you."
"Then trust that I'm not going on a suicide mission."
Sophie hugged Colby, saying, "Once l know Odie is safe, I'll find a way to extract Odie's location. Just wait for me not too far away, I promise you, nothing will happen to me.
Colby whispered, "I know I can't convince you otherwise, so I'll just have to make sure you're safe and not let you come to any harmTM
He had always wanted to keep Sophie away from danger, to be the wings that protected her.novelbin
But Sophie always had her own plans, and he couldn't bear to see her in danger, nor could he refuse her.
"I know, no matter where I am, you'll always rush over to protect me."
