Jenna, Adler, Colby, and Sophie had just walked into the banquet hall and already had everyone’s eyes on them. People were coming up to greet them left and right. Off to the side, Sandy, clearly annoyed, tugged on Angelo’s sleeve and grumbled, “Bro! These Devonport folks are so clueless! Does no one know who we are?”
After all, she was the Pollard family heiress! Overseas, people were always clamoring for her attention. But here in Devonport, she was just background noise.
“Relax. Remember, Sophie was just a wallflower during her last overseas visit too! It’s all about who’s got the pull around here,” Angelo said, trying to calm her down.
Sandy pouted, “Yeah, but I’m the Pollard family heiress. I deserve some respect, right? Bro, when you open a branch here in Devonport, it has to outshine S Corporation!”
Angelo couldn’t help but chuckle. The heiress sure had big dreams.
Outshine S Corporation? With the backing of four major families, each one a powerhouse, it would be like trying to move the entire Pollard family business here!
“I’ll do my best… my best…” Angelo said, his gaze drifting towards Elodie, who was making her way over to Sophie.
Elodie’s smile was gentle, but there was something about it that felt just a bit intimidating.
“So, you must be Colby? I’ve heard so much about you. Finally nice to meet you,” Elodie said, extending her hand.
Colby barely glanced at it and coolly said, “I don’t shake hands.”
Elodie didn’t seem fazed and turned to Sophie, saying, “Ms. Sophie, you wouldn’t snub me, would you?”
Sophie shook her hand and replied, “Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Elodie.”

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!...
