After a while, Odie still hadn't heard any noise from downstairs.
Finally, he asked, "Haven't Sophie and Colby come in yet?"
"They should have," came the reply.
"Then why hasn't anyone come to greet me?"
"Boss, aren't you... not going to welcome them?"
Jonah had been struggling to figure out what was going on in Odie's mind lately. Odie had been a walking contradiction these past few days. He talked a big game about not wanting to go, but he still ended up attending Sophie and Colby's wedding.
This time, he had no plans to hurt Colby, yet insisted on saying it was all intentional.
Even inviting them to stay and recover was done reluctantly.
"Why should I care? If they want to stay, they stay; if not, they can leave."
Odie stood up, his voice icy. "I'm hungry. Get someone to make dinner."
"...Yes, sir."
As Odie descended the stairs, he noticed Sophie was nowhere to be seen in the living room.
Polly was still cleaning. Odie glanced her way and asked, "Have Sophie and Colby gone back to their room?"
"...Yes, but they've gone back to the same room."
Hearing that Sophie and Colby were sharing a room made Odie furrow his brow. "Didn't I ask you to prepare two guest rooms? How did they end up together?"
"Ms. Sophie said that she and Mr. Colby are married, so it’s only natural for them to stay together."
"Alright, no need to explain further. Call them down for dinner."

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.
