Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) -
Chapter 904
The cleaning staff looked like they were on the verge of a meltdown. Polly's face was even more ashen.
Odie lounged on the couch and said, "You were taken away, and you still have the nerve to come back? What are you up to?"
"Boss, I know I screwed up, but I swear I didn't say anything."
"Oh, didn't say anything?" Odie scoffed. "Then I must be out of my mind to believe a word you're saying."
"Boss, please, believe me! Colby and Sophie brought me back here just to set me up, hoping you'd deal with me. You can't fall for it!" Polly's plea made Odie pause and think.
"Was it Sophie's idea to bring you back, or Colby's?"
"It was Mrs. Costello's idea!"
Hearing it was Sophie's idea, Odie nodded. "Alright, you can stay."
Polly was taken aback. She didn't expect Odie to let her stay so easily.
"Boss, isn't it a bit rash to just let her stay?"
"You think it's rash?"
"Yeah, it really is."
Odie said seriously, "Then head to my office, print out her renewal contract, and get it signed and stamped. That won't be rash."
"Boss..."
"Go, now!"
With Odie's firm tone, Jonah had no choice but to say, "Yes... I'll get on it right away."
Polly watched Jonah leave, still in a daze. She was... really staying?
"Head upstairs; you're off cleaning duty."
"What... what should I do then?"
"Whatever." Odie finished but then reconsidered. "Can you order takeout?"
"Yeah, I can."
"Great, get me a full-sugar latte, no ice. I'll need it later."
Odie stood up and addressed the cleaners who had already started working, "Make sure it's spotless. After I've had my latte, I'll check it's not clean, you'll be back here
tomorrow, and Colby will foot the bitt
Watching Odie's calm demeanor, Polly was stunned. This was nothing like she had anticipated.
Meanwhile, at the Pollard estate...
Bea had been staying with the Pollards for several days, but her encounters with Caelum were few and far between. She felt a tightness in her chest with no outlet for her frustration. Leaving or staying seemed equally wrong.
A maid entered the room, and Bea immediately asked, "Is Caelum willing to see me yet?"
"He is usually very busy. I just asked the butler, and he said Mr. Caelum had gone out and wasn't at home."
Bea's face fell, and she slumped back into her chair. "How many days has it been? If Caelum doesn't want to see me, I'll just leave!"
"He did say that if you wish to leave, we can arrange a first-class plane ticket for you. Your luggage will also be taken care of."
At that, Bea's face fell even more. "What are you implying? That you want me gone?"
The maid quickly lowered her head and said, "That's not what I meant.'
Bea coldly replied, "My grandson hasn't been found yet. I can't leave now. Apart from Caelum, doesn't the Pollard family have anyone else in charge?" "Well..."
"Right, I've heard that the Pollard family
eldes now under the reign of y
eldest son, Kiran. I've been here for
days, yet I haven't even met koet
I kid."
