Odie scowled, his face a thundercloud.
"Babe, I think we've had enough drama for one night. I'm gonna go start the car."
"Alright," she replied.
As Colby made his way out, he threw a glance at Angelo. It was just a fleeting look, but it sent chills down Angelo’s spine. Colby had a presence that was hard to ignore.
How on earth could anyone think the Pollards could stand up to Colby? Even the boldest member of the Pollard family felt a shiver in his presence. What chance did anyone else have?
"Mr. Pollard, you remember the deal where I forked out fifty million for you to work for me, right?" Sophie asked.
"Of course," Angelo replied nonchalantly.
Sophie looked puzzled for a moment, prompting Angelo to quickly add, "At Emerging News, I definitely remember."
"Good to know," Sophie said, turning on her heel and walking away.
Angelo stood there, scratching his head. She asked just that and left?
"Jonah, get this place cleaned up. We're outta here," Odie commanded, clearly losing interest in the event. Just as he was about to leave, he stopped and turned to Vanessa. "Ms. Vanessa, since the engagement party's a bust, let's call off the wedding too."
"What did you say?" Vanessa stared at Odie in disbelief. She had lost her best friend Sandy and tarnished her reputation abroad for this engagement!
And now Odie wanted to call it off just like that?
Vanessa grabbed Odie's arm. "You promised me! You can't just back out!"
Odie shrugged, his tone indifferent. "I did promise, but only if our engagement was beneficial to me."
He then glanced at Angelo, who straightened up under Odie's hostile gaze, trying to maintain his composure.

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!...
