Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 919

"They must have been sneaking around for ages. How else could they get engaged so quickly after the Pollard family called off the previous engagement?"

"Poor Ms. Sandy! She took Vanessa in out of kindness because she was an orphan, only to have a snake in her house!"

...

Vanessa sat in the Dragonvein Hotel, her chest heaving with anger as she scrolled through the hateful comments online, her face growing paler by the second.

Outside, Jonah knocked on the door. "Ms. Vanessa, it's almost time."

Vanessa's expression was icy. "Come in."

Jonah entered, finding Vanessa dressed in a stunning white off-the-shoulder evening gown. She looked every bit the elegant international heiress.

Vanessa had always been sheltered due to health issues and rarely engaged with the outside world. This was her first time facing such vicious online bullying.

"Where's Odie? I need to see him!"

"He is getting dressed. It might not be a good time."

Jonah's tone was cool, but Vanessa, frustrated, shoved her phone in front of him. "Go ask him what’s going on right now! Are you not going to do some PR to handle this mess?"

When Sophie was getting dragged online, didn't Colby have the PR team squash the rumors in no time? Now, Odie hadn't taken any action, nor shown any intention to quell the storm.

Jonah glanced at the screen and said, "Ms. Vanessa, please, I’ll go ask. But the boss said you must go downstairs to greet the guests in ten minutes, no matter what. Most of the guests today are business leaders who have collaborated with the White family in the past."

Then, Jonah turned and left the room, eager to escape.

Vanessa’s heart raced as she read the comments on her phone. What would Colby think if he saw these comments?

Odie, looking every bit the gentleman in his tuxedo, spread his arms and asked, "How’s this?"

"Looks great."

"I’m pleased with it too."

Odie adjusted his collar and asked, "When are Sophie and Colby arriving?"

"I looked out for them earlier but didn’t see either."

Jonah hesitantly asked, "Do you think they won’t come?"

"No way." Odie raised an eyebrow, confidently asserting, "Colby might not, but Sophie definitely will."
