In an instant, entrepreneurs, real estate magnates, and celebrities from all walks of life gathered in Devonport, not daring to slight the Costello and the Burke families.
The downtown streets were at one point clogged with luxury cars, making it impossible for traffic to flow.
The Regent Hotel and the Four Seasons Hotel were originally competitors. Tonight, even their security staff were caught up in a rivalry.
The security and greeters of both establishments donned expensive uniforms, and even their underground parking lots were temporarily expanded to accommodate the influx.
Bystanders whispered from a distance.
"Both families are hosting engagement parties. Picking a side is tricky."
"I'd say the Burke family has more prestige. After all, they're the leading family in Devonport. Who wouldn't show them respect?"
"I heard Lennon spent over a hundred million on this engagement party!"
"What? A hundred million?!"
Everyone was shocked, not expecting the Costello family to go to such lengths!
This was just for an engagement party. If the Costello couple were to marry, would they host a wedding that cost even more?
At this moment, two high-society heiresses stepped out of a luxury car, one after the other.
Looking at the grand entrance of the Regent Hotel, one of the women, dressed in a black haute couture dress, frowned and disdainfully said, "This is Sophie's second marriage, and the Costello family is really going all out for her!"
"Well, there's nothing to be done if Colby loves her..."
Vanessa gazed at the engagement photo of Colby and Sophie at the entrance, her heart souring.
She had traveled thousands of miles to Devonport for Colby, but aside from sending her money every month, Colby never spoke to her, much less met her in private.

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.
