Sandy was dead set on kicking Sophie out. She didn’t want to make Vanessa look bad in front of Odie yesterday, but today, Sophie had to go!
"Are you really letting me go? Fine, then I'm leaving," Sophie said, heading towards the door with a mocking tone. She hadn't even taken two steps when Odie's voice rang out from upstairs, "Hold it right there."
Sandy snapped, "Odie, what are you doing? I told her to leave. Didn't you hear me?"
"Mrs. Costello is a distinguished guest of the Minton family. It would be incredibly rude for her to leave dressed like that," Odie replied as he walked down the stairs. He gave Jonah a look, and Jonah came forward to drape a shawl over Sophie’s shoulders.
Odie continued, "I have plans to go out tonight. We can have someone drive Mrs. Costello home. How does that sound?"
Sophie stayed silent.
Sandy glared at both of them, her irritation growing. "Odie, are you deaf? I want her out now!"
Sandy was used to giving orders, but Odie shot her a cold glance that made her words catch in her throat.
Vanessa, sensing the tension, quickly interjected, "Mr. Odie is right. It would be rude for her to leave like this. Let him arrange for her to be driven home tonight."
"But..."
"Sandy, didn't you say you wanted to go shopping today? I'll go with you. By the time we get back tonight, she will be gone. How’s that sound?"
Vanessa’s suggestion made Sandy pout, "Alright, but only because you asked. Otherwise, she'd be out on the street right now."
Vanessa forced a smile.
Odie lowered his voice and said, "Aren't you going upstairs? Or do I need to escort you myself?"

why do you keep delaying updates:(...
please post new chapters.. why are they delayed...
Awaiting new chapters plzzz...
when will new chapters release??...
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!...
When will you upload the next chapter...
