That simple sentence made Odie pause as he was opening the car door.
Colby's voice was low and steady. "I was wrong." Odie looked at Colby, and Sophie, who had expected a heartwarming reconciliation between the brothers, was stunned when Odie coldly retorted, "Get lost." With that, Odie got into the car and sped away.

He took Sophie's hand and said, "Let's go back inside." Sophie followed Colby back to the lobby.
Elodie was dabbing Griffin's face with a cloth. Seeing Griffin silent, Elodie frowned and asked, "Doesn't it hurt? You were acting all tough just now." Griffin stayed silent, his head bowed.
As Elodie applied ointment to Griffin, she said to Sophie, who had just entered, "Sophie, I need to talk to you alone." Jenna frowned and asked, "What could you possibly have to say that can't be said in front of us?" "Sthings can be shared, and scan't. What I'm about to discuss is for Sophie's ears only." Seeing the seriousness on Elodie's face, Sophie said, "Alright, let's talk upstairs." Elodie put down the ointment and instructed Griffin to sit tight and wait for her. He nodded, his eyes full of tender affection.
Elodie and Sophie went upstairs.
Once they reached the guest room, Elodie finally spoke, "Sophie, I'm just like you." Hearing this, Sophie furrowed her brows. "What do you mean?" "Do you remember what I said the first twe met?"

I've known this all along." Griffin always treated Elodie as someone more important than his own life It was impossible for Elodie alone to foster so many talents for Reeves Entertainment.

"Griffin knows what I know. But I know a bit more than him." Elodie looked at Sophie. "Though I thought it was just a dream, I indeed lived my life once more." Hearing this, Sophie's heart began to race.
It was as if, in this strange world, she had finally found someone just like herself.
"You mean, you also..." "Yes, I lived once more." Elodie
looked at Sophie. "I was sent to the countryside as a child, living a hard life. Later, I was brought back to the family because the Reeves family cause had no heirs, and they called me. back. My husband's aunt wanted the Reeves fortune, and in my previous life, she deceived me, leading to the death of both my mother and me. After being reborn, I used the
knowledge from my previous life to change my fate. I think... we are the the same, because in my memory, the daughter of the Russell family died in childbirth after marrying James."
