"I did promise you, but you shouldn't have gone against me."
"What are we going to do now? That woman is upstairs, and she won't be coming down anytime soon. Odie, I'm the only one who should be by your side. Without me, who are you going to rely on to deal with those men?"
Leticia's words made Odie hesitate.
Over the years, Leticia had used her charm to win over many influential figures for the Minton family. He couldn't possibly depend on Sophie to captivate those men.
"Odie, give me another chance. I promise I'll do better... Please..."
Leticia clung to Odie's arm, trying to soften his heart.
Just then, the sound of a piano filled the hall, catching everyone's attention. A captivating melody floated through the air, enchanting everyone present.
Odie turned to look, noticing a figure at the piano, their face partly hidden by a hat. The lively tune instantly lifted everyone's spirits.
James watched the figure in silence for a moment.
As the piece ended, genuine applause broke out.
Sophie stood up from the piano bench, curtsied, and in that moment, her hat fell to the floor, releasing her long, dark hair like a cascade of ink.
The crowd gasped.
With only a hint of makeup, Sophie's natural beauty stood out starkly among the heavily adorned ladies, making her appear vulnerably exquisite.
That sight alone was enough to stir hearts and captivate minds.
This caught Leticia off guard.
How was it possible?!
Sophie walked up to Odie and asked, "Mr. Odie, may I have this dance?"
Odie, observing Sophie in her disguise, smirked slightly, "Yes."
