The gala, held every three years, was the epitome of exclusivity. Only the crème de la crème, after a grueling selection process, could grace this prestigious event. As you know, this brand's a big deal internationally, and in our circles, it's considered the height of luxury. The ladies attending must be between eighteen and twenty-five—any older and you’re out. And they have strict checks on height, weight, and figure."
Sandy loved these kinds of events.
Sophie’s eyes flitted around the crowd outside the gala, realizing that everyone else was dressed in black evening gowns. She stood out like a sore thumb in her white dress.
"Sophie, are you even listening? I'm trying to educate you here!"
"Yeah, yeah, keep educating."
Sophie scanned the venue, trying to spot any Minton family members.
Sure enough, she saw a few people in black outside, patrolling with the Minton family's crest on their uniforms, which gave her some peace of mind.
But soon, worry crept back in.
The Gibbs family controlled the venue.
Daniel was a man who followed the money, changing allegiances as easily as the wind changes direction. If he betrayed them, what would happen to Odie’s people...
Meanwhile, Odie was getting ready to head out for the gala.
Jonah escorted Odie to the car. As Odie got in, he asked, almost offhandedly, "Everything set?"
"All set," Jonah confirmed. "Our folks are on the down-low, keeping an eye on Ms. Sophie. And since the venue is the Gibbs family’s Pearl Hotel, we shouldn’t have any problems."
"Good."
