Sophie plopped down on the sofa, not a care in the world, and casually opened a bottle of red wine. “My clothes are soaked. I need a new outfit.”
“You ruined a perfectly good outfit?” Odie asked, incredulous.
“Nope. I just took a bath with my clothes on.”
Odie, ready to ask another question, turned around only to see Sophie making herself right at home. He frowned deeply, struggling to comprehend. “Are you even a lady?”
“Absolutely, one hundred percent genuine,” Sophie replied without missing a beat.
Sizing Odie up, she shot back, “You have the nerve to watch someone take a bath, and you’re questioning if I’m embarrassed?”
Odie, momentarily stunned by her retort, swallowed his frustration and called out, “Jonah! Get Mrs. Costello a change of clothes.”
“Make it something casual,” Sophie added.
Odie couldn't help but laugh, though clearly annoyed. “You’re still making demands? Do you even know how expensive those clothes you soaked were?”
Sophie grinned mischievously. “Come on, Mr. Odie, like you’re ever short on cash, right?”
Choosing not to argue, Odie turned to the door as Jonah knocked. “Boss, the clothes are ready.”
Odie shot a glance at Sophie, still lounging on the sofa, then cracked open the door just a bit.
Jonah paused, a bit confused by Odie's behavior.
Odie grabbed the clothes from Jonah and tossed them right over Sophie's head.
“Odie!” she exclaimed.
“Change your clothes!” he yelled back.

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....
