Upon hearing that, Odie paused mid-bite into his apple. Pointing at himself, he asked, “You want me to cover her bill? Do I look like her husband? She’s got the wrong guy!”
Jonah replied, “No mistake here. Sophie sent a message saying that device is a piece of junk—it just heats up and does nothing else. She feels duped and is just thankful she didn’t report it to the authorities.”
Meanwhile, over at Burke Estate, Jenna scrutinized Sophie’s face, looking from side to side. “I don’t see any difference. Is this what tens of thousands of dollars in treatments gets you?”
“It’s all about the brand with the Mintons.”
The Minton family’s enterprise in Summerfield was notorious for shady dealings. Who’d trust them to develop beauty products?
Wouldn’t you be scared to use them?
That company exists solely to scam the gullible.
They rely on famous celebrities and high-end advertising, but their beauty products are practically useless.
Jenna clicked her tongue. “If it were me, I’d have trashed their store.”
“Why didn’t you guys invite me for the cosmetic treatment?” Sandy descended the stairs. She’d been bored out of her mind these past few days. Aside from occasionally going out for meals and drinks with Jenna, she had no entertainment.
Sophie had indeed forgotten about Sandy, the heiress. She glanced upstairs and asked, “Ms. Sandy, has Mr. Pei been refusing to eat or drink these past few days?”
“Yeah, my brother says it’s like being under house arrest! He said he’d rather starve himself than stay here.”
“That’s quite dramatic,” Sophie remarked, shaking her head slightly. She then turned to a maid and instructed, “Could you please take two chocolate doughnuts up to Mr. Pei? He loves those.”

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!...
