Julian stood nearby, chuckling with a hint of resignation. "Ms. Sophie, have you checked how much work is still
piled up in your office?" Sophie just gave a sheepish smile, clearly feeling a bit embarrassed. Elodie and Griffin
exchanged knowing glances.
When they opened the office door, both were taken aback by the sight inside.
Sophie, trying to lighten the mood, suggested, "How about we grab smidnight snacks at twelve?"
"Let's make it eight," Elodie said confidently. "When it comes to getting work done, none of you can keep up with
me."
With that, Elodie marched into Sophie's office, ready to dive in.
"Great! I'll make a call, and we can all have dinner together at eight," Sophie declared, dialing Colby's number.
Colby picked up right away. Despite his gentle tone, Sophie could hear the tiredness in his voice: "Sophie, do you
needthere?"

"I don't necessarily need you, but... you're welcto join us."
With Sophie inviting Colby over, everyone perked up.
Adler and Jenna, sensing trouble, tried to make a quick escape, but Sophie caught them both, one on each arm.
"Is it just five million? Or a set of limited edition handbags? Consider it sorted." With such tempting offers, Adler
and Jenna's eyes sparkled.
"You should've mentioned this earlier!"
"Exactly! With perks like these, we'd have been on it in a heartbeat!"
They rushed back into the office, reinvigorated.
Reece, without even looking up, raised a hand. "Boss, I'm gonna need a seven-day vacation."
Julian strolled in and added, "Countout, but maybe you could oweone less favor, Ms. Sophie."
Booker chimed in, "I'm with Mr. Julian on this."
Elodie, seeing a chance for gain, thought for a moment. "How about | get a shop in Devonport? Nothing that
would compete with you guys. With Ms. Sophie's blessing, think | could really thrive there."
At that point, Griffin was the only silent one.
All eyes turned to him, and after a moment, he spoke up, "Military bayonets and a set of the latest firearms."
Everyone fell silent.
Sophie forced a smile. "Ms. Elodie, could you let this gentleman know | don't deal in firearms?"
Griffin, casually cleaning a small knife, replied, "You might not, but Colby does."
"Colby also..."
"Yeah, Colby really does," Adler interjected, unable to hold back.
Apparently, Colby had quite the collection from overseas, all perfectly legal there and incredibly effective.
Sophie rubbed her temples in exasperation. "Alright, fine, | agree."
With Sophie's approval, the team buckled down and got to work.

Half an hour later, Colby had already arranged for the Costello family to transfer all their documents to S
Corporation.
Seeing that the Costellos weren't in
much better shape, Adler groaned
loudly, take it back, just give
ten million! This is double
me
Swn work!"
"You don't need to worry; Colby's brought in reinforcements," Sophie said as she returned.
She had stepped out to prepare for Colby's arrival and was impressed by the team he'd brought along. It looked
like they'd be able to get through the documents in just three hours instead of eight.
"What? He actually brought help?" Adler exclaimed, heading to the door to see who Colby had enlisted.
