James's words cut off Odie mid-sentence.
Frowning, Jonah said, "Mr. Burke, you knew Sandy and Vanessa are tight. If you go ahead with this engagement, the Pollards will flip out. Why didn't you mention this earlier?"
James replied calmly, "The Burkes, Pollards, and Whites aren't particularly close. I had no idea Sandy was so close to Vanessa. If I had known, I would never have suggested your engagement to Vanessa."
"But you just said..."
"I read it online."
James pulled out his phone, showing an article that detailed the love triangle between Odie, Sandy, and Vanessa.
With a teasing tone, James remarked, "Didn't know you had such a colorful love life."
Jonah was about to chime in, but Odie, with a dark expression, cut him off, "Enough!"
There was no point in blaming anyone now.
Taking a deep breath, Odie said, "Let's head home." Then, he moved towards the car.
As Odie was about to open the car door, James, frowning, said, "Mr. Odie, that's my car."
"I know. My car's broken, remember?"
Odie, unfazed, turned to Jonah, "Jonah, get in."
"Yes, boss."
Jonah and Odie opened the car doors.
Before getting in, Odie addressed James, "Thanks for the lift tonight, Mr. Burke. I'm sure our future collaborations will be even more pleasant."
After saying this, Odie got into the car.
Watching the scene unfold, James suddenly felt a tinge of regret. He had thought Odie was all geared up for a confrontation, only to find out he was just hitching a ride, leaving James feeling somewhat played.
Entering his car, James pressed a few buttons, and a familiar beeping sound filled the vehicle.
"What are you doing?" Odie frowned.

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.
