Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Sophie couldn't believe how excited Jenna was about opening presents. With a genuine smile, she suggested, "Hey Jenna, why don't you open all these gifts for me?" Jenna chuckled, "No way! This is something you need to do yourself."

With a grin, Jenna added, "You never know, you might open one and find something worth a mansion!"

Sophie laughed at the thought. She knew the guests today were all wealthy and wouldn't skimp on their gifts, but a mansion? That was a bit much.

Just then, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in!" Jenna called out.

A server stepped in and said, "Ma'am, Mr. Colby is waiting for you in the lobby."NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

"Got it, I'll be right there."

Sophie had changed into a more comfortable black dress. As she made her way to the lobby, she hadn't taken more than a couple of steps when an arm suddenly wrapped around her neck, pulling her into a

corner.

Instinctively, Sophie fought back, sinking her teeth into the arm holding her. A pained yelp followed: "Ouch!"

Realizing it was Odie, Sophie released him immediately.

"What are you doing?" she demanded, frowning.

"Sophie, are you part dog or something? Biting before you even know who it is!"

"Sorry, Mr. Odie, I've developed a bit of a reflex from being kidnapped too often. I'll be gentler next time."

"You..."

Odie frowned, "Today's your big day, and I don't want to cause a scene."

"Well, thank you, Mr. Odie," Sophie said with a smile. "But my husband is waiting for me outside. If there's nothing else, I'll be going. Thanks for coming today. I'll make sure to send you the group photo."

"It's not about the photo."

"Then is it about the necklace? I got it, thank you, Mr. Odie. It's beautiful."

Odie quickly explained, "I just didn't want the Mintons to look bad, like we can't even give a decent gift!"

"I get it, I get it. Mr. Odie intercepted our original necklace just to show how generous the Mintons can be."

Seeing Sophie's understanding, Odie nodded in satisfaction. "Exactly."

"So, Mr. Odie, what do you really want to tell me?"

"I've found a lead on the person behind this, and I'm going to win this bet."

Sophie immediately became serious. "You found a lead? How?"

"This city is my playground. Finding traces of him wasn't hard. Since he's stretched his hand this far, it's time I taught him a lesson."

The more Sophie heard, the more uneasy she felt. "Odie, listen to me. Don't act rashly. The person behind this isn't as simple as you think. Don't end up getting yourselfin trouble."

"There aren't many who can teach me a lesson."

Odie casually pulled out a gift and handed it to Sophie. "Here's your wedding gift. I'm off."

As he walked away towards the castle's exterior, Sophie looked down and opened the gift. Inside" wasa note with an address and a drawing of a mischievous face.
