Julian and Booker were familiar faces to Odie, but this Reece character? He was a mystery. Reece, aware of Odie's curious gaze, flashed a polite smile his way. That was like trying to punch a pillow—it just made Odie even more frustrated.
Julian chimed in, “We heard S Corporation was having a rough patch, so we thought we’d drop by and see if we could lend a hand.” He glanced around the room, taking in the mountain of paperwork. “Looks like you’ve got your hands full.”
Even Julian hadn’t seen such an overwhelming stack of documents before. Booker jumped in, “Ms. Sophie, Julian’s got a knack for handling this kind of thing. If you’re okay with it, we’d love to pitch in and get through these files before the day’s over.”
“Thanks a bunch, Booker and Mr. Julian,” Sophie said, clearly grateful.
Reece added, “I can help too. I’ve got a few days off from overseas, so it’s no trouble.”
Sophie gave Reece a playful pat on the arm, “Much appreciated, superstar.”
“We’re all in this together. It’d be weird to get all formal,” Reece replied.
Odie, standing off to the side, was frowning deeply. Comrades? Where did that come from?
Noticing Sophie wasn’t planning to introduce Reece, Odie cleared his throat.
Sophie, seemingly oblivious to his cough, turned to Julian, “Hey Julian, there’s something I need to chat with you about. Can we step outside for a sec?”

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!...
