"Yeah, that's right."
Sophie nodded.
"Huh? Aren't you the Russell family's heiress? I always thought heiresses were like my sister, never lifting a finger."
Hearing her brother badmouth her in front of everyone, Sandy shot back, "Who says I can't cook? I can make chocolate!"
"Sure, sure, melting chocolate and pouring it into a mold counts as cooking."
Angelo and Sandy bickered like siblings do.
Gordon suddenly lost his appetite. He put down his fork and said, "Rick, pack up the dinner and bring it upstairs. It's too crowded down here; I can't eat comfortably."
"Yes, sir."
Adler was taken aback. "Wait, if you take the food, what are we supposed to eat?"
"Mr. Adler and Ms. Jenna, haven't you already had dinner at the Four Seasons Hotel? You probably aren't up for a second meal tonight."
Adler's face turned beet red as his date with Jenna was exposed. He jumped up and bolted upstairs like a kettle boiling over.
Jenna, acting nonchalant, whistled as she followed him up the stairs.
Sandy and Angelo were left baffled.
What's happening? Did they have a fight?
Seeing Gordon go upstairs, Sophie sighed.
Things were definitely not going smoothly.
Noticing Sophie's downcast expression, Colby asked, "Did you upset him?"
Sophie briefly recounted the day's events, finishing with, "To put it bluntly, it was almost like I had pooped right in front of him."
"..."
Colby facepalmed.
Anyone else might have let it slide, but Gordon was not one to easily forget an offense.

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
Excellent novel!...
When will you upload the next chapter...
