Chapter 922
Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
âHow could I? It must have been my team's mistake,â Odie said, casting a quick look at Sandy before deliberately taking Vanessaâs hand. âVanessa and Ms. Sandy are good friends. Thereâs no way we wouldnât invite Ms. Sandy to witness our engagement, right, Vanessa?â
Vanessaâs face went pale at his words. She hadnât expected Odie to dump the problem on her!
Sophie, observing the unfolding drama, took a sip of the champagne Odie had handed her earlier. What a shameless move.
âI...â
Before Vanessa could get a word out, Odie acted surprised. âWhat? You forgot to send Ms. Sandy an invitation?â
Vanessaâs face grew paler. She and Sandy were close friends. How could she invite the Pollard family to her engagement with Sandyâs ex-fiancé?
Odie had cleverly shifted the blame onto her. In such a situation, Vanessa was speechless.
Watching Odie wash his hands of the matter, Angelo coldly interjected, âRegardless, Sandy is my sister. Mr. Odie, you broke off your engagement with my sister just a few days ago and now youâre getting engaged to someone else. Do you think you can treat the Pollard family like a joke?â
Sophie stared at Angelo for a moment. This tone was much more fitting. She remembered seeing Angelo on Emerging News last time. He hadnât seemed like this at all.
The atmosphere grew tense after Angeloâs remark.
Sandy confronted Vanessa angrily, âIâve been calling you these past few days without an answer, and you werenât home when I visited! Were you with him all this time?â
âSandy...â
Vanessa tried to explain, but Sandy was too furious. âDonât bother explaining! So, when I had you stay at the Minton Estate, the two of you were often seen coming and going together! I treated you as a good friend! And you betrayed me for a man!â
As Sandy spoke, her anger grew. She wanted to smash the cake she was holding into Vanessaâs face but ultimately softened, dropping it at Vanessaâs feet instead.
It was just a man, after all. If Vanessa had said she liked Odie, she would have willingly stepped aside! But Vanessa shouldnât have kept it a secret and lied to her!
âSee? My sister is very angry, and the consequences are serious.â

ï¤Chapter 921 Falling For My Contractual Wife (Brian and Grace)
ï¤Chapter 782 After saying this, Angelo heard a burst of static from the earpiece he was wearing. Quickly gathering his thoughts, he switched topics, âYour Minton family has been running wild abroad lately, starting new ventures, trafficking drugs, and openly soliciting prostitution at the Dragonvein Hotel. Do you really think the Pollard family has no one to handle this?â
As soon as Angelo finished, a large group of people burst through the door, and Odieâs men, previously stationed abroad by him, were bound and laid on the ground by the Pollard family.
âMr. Odie, do you recognize them?â Angelo stepped forward, lifting the face of one of the Mintonsâ men. âOver the years, Mr. Odie, youâve spent quite some effort abroad. It took me quite some time to dig these people out, and now, Iâm returning them all to you.â
Odieâs face darkened. He had been cautious not to alert anyone when placing his men abroad, spacing out their deployments. He hadnât expected the Pollard family to unearth all his men in just a few days!
Kiranâs tactics were indeed as clever as the rumors said.
