Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 877

Sandy was dead set on kicking Sophie out. She didn't want to make Vanessa look bad in front of Odie yesterday, but today, Sophie had to go!

"Are you really letting me go? Fine, then I'm leaving," Sophie said, heading towards the door with a mocking tone. She hadn't even taken two steps when Odie's voice rang out from upstairs, "Hold it right there."

Sandy snapped, "Odie, what are you doing? I told her to leave. Didn't you hear me?"

"Mrs. Costello is a distinguished guest of the Minton family. It would be incredibly rude for her to leave dressed like that," Odie replied as he walked down the stairs. He gave Jonah a look, and Jonah came forward to drape a shawl over Sophie's shoulders.

Odie continued, "I have plans to go out tonight. We can have someone drive Mrs. Costello home. How does that sound?"

Sophie stayed silent.

Sandy glared at both of them, her irritation growing. "Odie, are you deaf? I want her out now!"

Sandy was used to giving orders, but Odie shot her a cold glance that made her words catch in her throat.

Vanessa, sensing the tension, quickly interjected, "Mr. Odie is right. It would be rude for her to leave like this. Let him arrange for her to be driven home tonight."

"But..."

"Sandy, didn't you say you wanted to go shopping today? I'll go with you. By the time we get back tonight, she will be gone. How's that sound?"

Vanessa's suggestion made Sandy pout, "Alright, but only because you asked. Otherwise, she'd be out on the street right now."

Vanessa forced a smile.

Odie lowered his voice and said, "Aren't you going upstairs? Or do I need to escort you myself?"

"Fine, if I'm so unwelcome, I'll get upstairs," Sophie said, adjusting the shawl on her shoulders. She turned back to give Sandy a taunting look. Sandy, provoked by the look, stood up and shouted, "Sophie! What's that supposed to mean? You better explain yourself! You..."

"Sandy! Stop causing a scene!"

"You are behaving so arrogantly in my house. Just wait until I tell Daddy. He'll make sure you get what's coming to you!"

Hearing Sandy's threat, Sophie felt a sense of relief. The only thing that worried her was Sandy not getting her father involved.

If Caelum found out about the shenanigans at the Minton's dinner party, the Minton family's hopes of climbing the social ladder by connecting with the Pollard family would be crushed. Sophie hoped she had calculated correctly. Given how much Caelum adored his daughter, he would never let Sandy marry someone like Odie.

She hoped Sandy wouldn't let her down.

Upstairs, Jonah escorted Sophie into a room and instructed Polly, who was standing outside, "Keep an eye on her and make sure she leaves at eight o'clock sharp."

"Got it."

As Polly watched Jonah leave and was about to shut the door, Sophie suddenly said, "Polly, can I ask you for a favor?"

"Ms. Sophie, what do you need?"

"After I leave tonight, could you replace a way to let Sandy know that I went to the Minton's dinner party with Odie?"

"But... Ms. Sandy is so temperamental. If she replaces out, it will definitely cause trouble."

Sophie smiled slightly, "That's exactly what I'm counting on."
