Chapter 1414

The photo showed a piece of clothing Joseph had worn before, paired with a white mask and a black cloak. The mask looked like a face twisted in agony, with deep-set eyes that gave you an uneasy feeling just looking at it.

“I wanted to ask if, while you were abroad these past few months, you ever ran into someone dressed like this? You'd usually see them at special dinners or balls. There are plenty of those overseas, mostly attended by the wealthy. You must have been to quite a few business parties. Have you seen anything like it?”

Reece took the phone and glanced at the photo. After a bit, he said, “There are definitely lots of masquerade balls overseas, and it’s not rare to see people dressed like that. This mask seems more like something out of an international opera. Give me some time, and I’ll dig into it.”

“No rush. The Devonport treasure is gone, and I doubt whoever's behind this will show their hand anytime soon. Just keep your eyes open, and if you spot anything, steer clear. It could get tricky if you’re caught.”

Sophie still remembered the chilling atmosphere when Vanessa had trapped her and Sandy at that dinner, the countless eyes watching them like sins sinking into a mire.

“I’m not that reckless. Even if I need to pass info to you, I’ll make sure to keep myself safe first.”

“Glad to hear it.”

Sophie didn’t press further. “Let’s head back.”

As Sophie turned away, Reece suddenly called out, “Sophie.”

“What’s up?”

“It might not be my place, but don’t you think...”

“Think what?”

Sophie turned back, looking puzzled.

Reece hesitated, then finally shared his thoughts, “Don’t you find Colby, well...”

“Hmm?”

Sophie, still puzzled, asked, “What about Colby?”

“In what way? Just because we’re in a bit more danger?”

Sophie chuckled, “Do we not look like a married couple?”

Reece didn’t say anything, but in those few seconds, Sophie’s smile started to fade.

Reece wasn’t joking.

“Maybe I’m reading into things, but from an actor’s viewpoint, his actions towards you seem too perfect, almost... unreal.”

Reece moved closer, brushing past Sophie, “I didn’t notice before, but this past month while you’ve been recovering, it’s been clear to everyone, not just me. It’s not that he’s bad to you, but he’s too good. Maybe there’s been so much going on around you both, you’ve been too distracted to see it, but loving someone... shouldn’t feel so calculated.”

With that, Reece glanced toward Colby, who was visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows, “Like right now, we’ve been out here for quite a while, and he hasn’t reacted at all.”

At that moment, Sophie froze.
