Jonah couldn't help but wonder where Odie got his confidence from.
Just then, a voice cfrom outside the suite, "Boss, Ms. Sophie is here." "And Colby?" "No sign of him." Hearing this, Odie nodded with satisfaction. "Good, I'll go greet her myself." "What?" The person outside hesitated for a moment.
Odie had already headed out, leaving Jonah to instruct the servant at the door, "Tidy up the room." As the servant entered, they couldn't help but be amazed by the dozen suits laid out on the bed, reflecting just how seriously their boss was taking this engagement party.
In the ballroom, the guests were all business partners who had previously collaborated with the White family, and many of them were unhappy with how Colby was managing things. As soon as Sophie walked in, she felt countless eyes on her, filled with hostility and scrutiny.

Overseas, everyone was aware of Vanessa's affection for Colby. Before Sophie cinto the picture, many thought Vanessa would end up as Colby's wife.
Being an outsider from Devonport, Sophie didn't receive a warm welcfrom the guests.
"Who invited her?" a woman's voice rang out from a corner.
Sophie looked over and saw Vanessa speaking, her expression sour as their eyes met.
Vanessa hadn't expected Sophie to hear her, and the atmosphere tensed up.
"I did," Odie's voice boomed from the second floor.
Sophie had already spotted Odie, looking as flashy as a peacock. It was just an engagement party, but he seemed dressed for a runway show.
Descending the stairs, Odie gave Sophie a once-over in her black evening gown.
Feigning nonchalance, Odie remarked, "You got here a bit sooner than I thought." Sophie glanced around, noticing the unfriendly stares. "Seems like I'm not very welchere." "You are Colby's wife. Why wouldn't everyone welcyou?" Odie said, scanning the room and raising his voice, "Does anyone here not welcMrs. Costello?" The guests shook their heads, suddenly showering Sophie with compliments as if they'd never been hostile.

Odie's arm. "Odie, tonight is our engagement party. Why ty. Why didn't you tellMrs. Costello was coming? I should have greeted her first."
Facing Vanessa's performance, Odiel glanced down at his arm, now m entwined ined with hers, and said, "Ms.
Vanessa, the guests over there need your attention." én.sw Odie's formal address made Vanessa uncomfortable, as if he was publicly calling her out for pretending in front of Sophie.
With the atmosphere growing awkward, Vanessa reluctantly let go of Odie's arm, saying, "Then I'll go over there..." Odie nodded in approval.
Once Vanessa had moved on to greet other guests, Sophie couldn't resist a sarcastic remark, "Mr. Odie, she is E your fiancée, after all."
