Chapter 684
Sophie opened her wedding gift box to find a bank card inside, complete with a PIN.
"This is..."
"Take it. I'm a hotshot actor now. I can afford this much."
Hearing this, Sophie smiled and said, "Okay, I'll accept it."
At that moment, Colby, who was not far away, looked towards Sophie. Dressed in a suit, his hair perfectly styled, he was toasting with the guests. Their eyes met, and they shared a smile. After tonight, Colby would be her fiancé. Sophie's face was filled with a blissful smile.
Suddenly, a security guard rushed up to Sophie, saying, "Ms. Sophie, Mr. Gordon tripped and fell as he was leaving. You should go check on him!"
"What?"Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Sophie frowned. How could Gordon suddenly fall for no reason, especially with his butler by his side?
"Sophie, let's go check together."
"Alright."
As the hostess of the evening, it was natural for her to find out what had happened.
Sophie and Jenna followed the security guard outside.
In the corner, Vanessa, who had been waiting for Colby, gathered her courage to approach him. She blocked his view and said, "Colby, congratulations on your engagement. Let me toast to you."
With good intentions, Vanessa offered a toast, and Colby did not refuse. He simply raised his champagne and lightly clinked glasses with Vanessa before turning to leave.
"Colby! Do you hate me that much?"
Faced with Vanessa's question, Colby coldly said, "I hope you can keep your distance in the future. I wouldn't want my wife to misunderstand our relationship."
Vanessa turned pale.
Sandy was with Vanessa. She stepped forward, discontented, and took Vanessa's arm, "Vanessa, let's not bother with him anymore. You've said what you wanted to say. Let's go This party is so dull." S
Sandy had just arrived from abroad and had already managed to offend Adler, whom her father had urged tom
her to meet. She felt uncomfortable at the party and just wanted to leave with Vanessa as soon as possible.
"...Alright."
A trace of despondency crossed Vanessa's eyes. She watched Colby's retreating back, her eyes shimmering.
'Colby, you will regret rejecting me like this...'
"Ms. Sophie! This way!"
The security guard led Sophie and Jenna outside the Regent Hotel. The engagement party was reaching its climax, and the area outside the climax
hotel was deserted except for a few dozen luxury cars.
"Where is he?"
Just as Sophie reached Gordon's car, she suddenly heard a muffled groan behind her. She turned to see Jenna had been knocked unconscious on the ground. This was bad!
The thought flashed through her mind, and soon, Sophie felt someone cover her mouth and nose from behind.
A familiar voice whispered in her ear, "Sophie, long time no see."
It was Odie!
The effects of the chloroform began to take hold, and Sophie felt her consciousness slipping away until she collapsed, limp.
"Boss, what about this one?" Jonah glanced at Jenna lying on the ground and frowned, "Should we..."
"Leave her. Tell Colby I've taken the girl."
