Jenna was visibly upset, "Sophie, why are you stopping me?"
"Let her go ask Colby if that's what she wants," Sophie said calmly. "This is between Colby and her. We can't interfere."
"But Colby likes you. Vanessa is just being unreasonable! Colby has never mentioned he’s about to marry her. He didn’t even liked her!"
Jenna vented, "She's guilt-tripping you and playing the victim in front of others. Didn't you see how those bystanders were looking at you?"
Their gazes suggested Sophie had wronged Vanessa in some way, but this had nothing to do with Sophie at all.
Jenna stomped her foot in frustration. "If it weren't for Vanessa's dad doing Colby a favor once, Colby wouldn't care about her at all."
Sophie claimed not to care, yet her gaze involuntarily drifted toward Colby and Vanessa.
Vanessa tried to grab Colby's arm, who smoothly avoided her touch.
"So I can’t touch you now?" Vanessa looked down.
"I promised Mr. Elwood to ensure your well-being, but if you keep testing my patience, I might not keep my word," Colby warned.
Vanessa was taken aback. She knew the kind of reputation Colby had.
Back when her father was alive, he often asked Colby to deal with troublesome people. So, Colby was known for not playing by the rules and not always keeping promises.
Vanessa knew Colby might actually do as he threatened, and she suddenly lost the will to cling to him.
"Adler, take Ms. Vanessa home."
Adler was confused. "Home? Which home?"

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!...
