Chapter 1417
"Sophie, I've told you before, if | ever lie to you, my life is yours to do with as you please. Whether you want to
cutinto a thousand pieces or pierce my heart with a thousand arrows, it's totally up to you."
Colby looked at her with such sincerity that Sophie couldn't help but think Reece had to be wrong.
How could she not love someone who loved her so deeply?
"I was just asking, you know, no need to get all serious."
Sophie's voice was gentle as she gave Colby a quick peck on the cheek. "You've had a long day, get swell-
deserved rest."
"Alright," Colby replied softly.
That night, he held her tight.
Sophie lay there, unable to sleep, and whispered, "Colby, | don't think we've ever had a real fight."
Sure enough, Colby was wide awake too.
He chuckled lightly, "Maybe you should find something small for us to argue about, just to cross it off your list."
"I don't want to fight."
Sophie turned to snuggle closer to Colby, saying, "If you're fooling me, keep it up, but please, don't ever let me

"| love you," Colby said with a deep, resonant voice.
But his love... it was different from others.
Colby knew it well.
Sophie was the most important person in his world, the one he wanted to spend his life making happy.
There would never be another person as important to him as Sophie.
In the middle of the night, once he was sure Sophie was asleep, Colby gently tucked the blanket around her.
In the dim light, his sharply defined features softened, losing all expression.
He gently brushed his fingers across Sophie's cheek, then quietly left the room.
In the dead of night, over at the Minton family home.
A loud crash suddenly echoed from outside.
Odie's eyes snapped open, and as he tossed off his blanket, the door swung open.
There stood Colby, silhouetted in the doorway, the moonlight casting a chilling glow on his face.
"What's your deal?" Odie frowned.
Why show up at his place in the middle of the night?
"What did you say?" Colby's gaze was icy, his voice cold and devoid of emotion.
When Jonah arrived, he saw Colby at Odie's doorway.
"Boss!"
"Get out!" Odie barked.
Jonah hesitated but retreated for now.
Leaving just Odie and Colby in the room.
Odie shrugged, "Yeah, | said it. So what? You gonna kill me?"
Before the words settled, Odie felt a gust of wind by his ear. He turned to see a
knife embedded in the wall. In a flash, Colby was advancing.
Odie's face darkened.
