Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1106

Jonah stepped aside, clearly letting Sophie pass.

Two bodyguards opened the door to the presidential suite, revealing an empty room except for the sound of water running in the bathroom.

Jonah took this as his cue to leave, promptly closing the door behind him.

Sophie instinctively reached for the door, but her eyes were drawn to two cups of steaming coffee on the table.

Had someone else been here just now?

The room was filled with the scent of tobacco, specifically Odie's usual brand of cigars, yet the ashtray on the other side was spotlessly clean.

So, the other person didn’t smoke?

As Sophie pondered who could have met with Odie, the bathroom door suddenly swung open.

There stood Odie, a towel draped around his neck, loosely wearing a bathrobe. Sophie looked him over without any intention of diverting her gaze.

Odie had wanted to startle Sophie, but seeing that she didn’t turn away shyly like other women, but instead scrutinized him closely, made him feel uncomfortable.

He suddenly remembered the last time he took a bath, Sophie had stared at him in the same manner!

Didn’t this woman have any sense of shame?

“What are you staring at? Haven't seen a man before?”

Odie's words didn’t make Sophie avert her eyes. “You’re dressed, aren’t you? Can’t see anything worth looking at.”

“You…”

Odie was at a loss for words.

“Sophie! I came here entirely to see…”

‘Beep—’

Just as Odie was about to reveal the truth in a moment of weakness, Jonah swiftly used his key card to open the door. “Boss, it’s getting late, shouldn’t we be heading back?”

The argument between the two had been loud enough for him to hear every word from outside.

Sophie obviously had Odie cornered, intentionally provoking him to reveal who he had met with, and their boss had taken the bait all too easily.

Jonah’s interruption brought Odie back to his senses.

Maybe it was the effect of the bath that made him so gullible, allowing Sophie to manipulate him with such a simple tactic.

Odie, now finding humor in his frustration, said, “Sophie, you’re trying to provoke me into revealing who I met, aren’t you? Well, dream on!”
