Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 1124

"Ms. Sandy, our parties are top-notch and super private. That's why all the ladies have to wear blindfolds when they get into the car."

"Are you kidding me? What if it messes up my makeup? What on earth were you guys thinking? I don't care; I'm not used to wearing such things. Besides, who could possibly remember your route?"

Sandy's temper always made her a handful, but the driver just smiled and said, "Ms. Sandy, being invited to this event means you're a well-known socialite, and your status is undoubtedly prestigious. We understand, and if you prefer not to wear a blindfold, we'll just black

out the windows instead."

"That's more like it!"

Sandy pulled Sophie into the car.

Only then did Sophie notice that the car's windows were modified so no one could see in or out.

These organizers had thought of everything.

Sophie wanted to check if Odie's team was following them, but that seemed impossible under the circumstances.

However, Sophie wasn't too worried. Even if their team couldn't follow, Odie would've likely informed the hotel hosting the dinner to ensure her safety as much as possible.

She just hoped Odie wouldn't get played.

He probably wouldn't...

"This is so boring. How much longer till we get there?"

Sandy grumbled from beside her.

Considering how tiny Summerfield's city center was, were they really heading to the suburbs?

Since arriving in Summerfield, trips to and from the fancy spots never took more than fifteen minutes. Now, more than ten minutes had passed, and they still hadn't stopped. "We'll be there shortly, please bear with us a little longer, Ms. Sandy."

Sandy was losing her patience. The car, dark and sealed like a vault, even with the overhead light, denied them any view of the outside world. Despite the air conditioning, the prolonged enclosure felt suffocating.

Sophie couldn't make out anything outside, but she had the nagging feeling they were just circling the same spot.

She had spent enough time in

Summerfield to be familiar with the city center's layout. Before leaving today, she had even reviewed the routes in the city center on her smartphone map multiple times.

Except for the first few minutes after leaving the Minton family's place, they seemed to have been circling the city center square.

As expected, after another ten minutes, the car stopped, and the door opened at that moment.

The light outside was blinding. Sophie looked up to see the hotel in front of them was the Pearl Hotel, part of the Gibbs family's empire. Seeing this hotel made Sophie's heart sink.

The Gibbs family's enterprises...

The Minton family had invested significantly in hotels, and naturally, the Gibbs family was a partner. However, since Leticia's death, there had been some tension between the Gibbs and Minton families

The person behind this was clever indeed to choose this location.

"Ms. Sandy, Ms. Sophie, please exit the vehicle."

The driver escorted Sandy and Sophie out.

The dinner was bustling, gathering socialites from all over at this moment.

Sandy recognized almost everyone, each a renowned and wealthy beauty within their social circle.
