Chapter 812
Hearing those words, Colby clenched his fists tight.
He had felt this way before–quitting was harder than facing death itself. He couldn’t stand to see Sophie in such agony.
“Colby! Look at me! Can you really watch me suffer like this? Colby…”
Sophie’s mind was a mess, the desperation to escape the pain had overpowered her reason. Seeing her like that was tearing Colby apart inside.
Outside, Gordon rushed in with a doctor, who immediately went to Sophie and held her down on the bed.
“Colby! Colby!” Sophie’s voice was filled with panic as she called out his name. Colby struggled to keep his emotions in check. In a low voice, he said, “Move aside…”
The doctors exchanged glances, hesitating. Frustrated, Colby shouted, “I said move!”
“Everyone, step back,” Gordon ordered, and the doctors finally obeyed.
Colby watched as a terrified Sophie threw herself into his arms. He gently patted her back, trying to comfort her, “Sophie, just sleep. It’ll get better… and, I’m sorry.”
Just as he finished speaking, he struck the back of her neck, knocking her out. The room fell silent, and Sophie lay unconscious in his arms.
“Sophie…” Jenna couldn’t bear the sight and ran out of the room, with Adler following closely behind.
Colby held Sophie tightly, planting a tender kiss on her forehead before gently laying her down on the bed.
Gordon turned to the doctor, “Administer the antidote.”
The doctor nodded and stepped forward, but Colby extended a hand, “Give me the syringe.”
Gordon frowned, bút Colby insisted, “No one knows this stuff better than me.
1/3
Hand it over.”
The doctor glanced at Gordon, who eventually nodded in agreement. The doctor handed the syringe to Colby, who expertly inserted the needle into Sophie’s vein.
Once it was done, Colby stood up and looked at Gordon, “Come with me.”
Gordon didn’t say a word, just followed Colby out of the room silently.
In the dimly lit hallway, Colby’s expression was cold and grim. “This was Odie’s doing, wasn’t it?”
“Yes.”
“If I hadn’t found out, were you planning on keeping this from me?”
“I hoped you’d respect Sophie’s wishes. She didn’t want you to overreact.”
“Overreact? I’ll show you what overreacting looks like.”
Colby clenched his fists again.
Gordon watched as Colby strode away. Rick couldn’t help but ask, “Sir, you’re just going to let him go? Aren’t you going to stop him?”
“When it comes to Sophie, neither you nor I can stop him.” Gordon spoke in a low voice, “Make sure someone is watching Sophie around the clock. We can’t let anything else happen to her.”
“Yes, sir.”
It was late at night, and the streets of Devonport suddenly roared with the sound of engines. Outside the Minton residence, the security team quickly sensed something was wrong. Before they could react, a dozen cars had already pulled up, blocking the streets on either side of the Minton residence.
“Go notify the boss!”
Before the guard could finish his sentence, he was knocked to the ground. In no time, the area outside the Minton residence was filled with cries of pain.
Colby stepped out of one of the cars, raised his hand, and someone placed “Construction in Progress” signs on both sides of the street outside the Minton residence.
