Sophie and Colby left the Costello estate together. Sophie was feeling a bit uneasy. "Colby, is your grandfather... reliable?"
"I'm not sure about that, but he wanted to organize my parents' engagement party back in the day. However, my father firmly disagreed. He finally gets a chance to meddle in his grandson's engagement party, so let's just let him do it."
"…Well, I hope it won't be too extravagant."
Before Sophie could finish her sentence, the Costello estate's alarms began to blare.
The various units quickly assembled as a message floated through the air via loudspeakers.
"Attention, attention! Mr. Colby is soon to be wed. All departments assemble and be on alert..."
Hearing the announcement, Sophie covered her face in embarrassment. She just hoped… hoped that the engagement party would go smoothly.
Back at home, Sophie discovered her phone was flooded with missed calls from Jenna. When she returned the calls, Jenna excitedly exclaimed, "Sophie, way to go! You've finally ditched that loser James!"
Sophie blinked in surprise. "How did you know?"
She hadn't even gotten around to telling Jenna. The news spread too quickly!
"How could I not know? It's all over the country now!"
Realizing what Jenna meant, Sophie quickly turned on the TV, only to see it broadcasting the news. "Joyous News! The heir to the Costello Corporation is set to engage with the daughter of the Russell family!"
Sophie watched the news play on a loop for half an hour. She was dumbstruck.
Lennon was making a global announcement!
"I finally understand why your father firmly refused to let your grandfather organize his engagement party."
