A goon from the Gibbs family had the audacity to block their path like that. Normally, the boss wouldn't let that slide.
"Isn't Sophie inside? If I stick my nose in, she might blame me for messing up her plan."
Odie glanced at his watch—it was precisely eight o'clock. They had three hours; by eleven, the dinner should be over.
"Keep a sharp eye on things," Odie ordered. "If there's any trouble inside, rush in! Any suspicious characters? Rush in! And if nobody's out by eleven, trash the hotel!"
"Got it, boss!"
Outside the dinner venue, the socialites not only strutted down the red carpet but also attracted a flurry of photographers from numerous media outlets. These events always made it to the papers and magazines, sometimes even grabbing international headlines.
Sophie, in her stunning white mermaid dress, was the star of the show, making Sandy realize that everyone else was in black gowns. Sophie truly stood out.
"Looks like you're the lucky one, the queen bee of our socialite hive," Sandy whispered to Sophie.
"Queen bee? Ms. Sandy, isn't that a bit of a stretch?"
"Well, you get my drift. You're the star tonight, lucky you."
Sandy pouted. If only she'd agreed to swap dresses when Sophie had asked her earlier that afternoon!
"I wonder who designed this dress. It's quite different from the usual style but really well done."

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.
