Deep into the night, at the Minton family's overseas residence, Sandy warmly linked arms with Vanessa as she led her up to the guest room on the second floor. "I had this room prepped for you first thing this morning. Make yourself at home," Sandy said with a smile.

Vanessa glanced around the luxurious room, feeling a bit uneasy. "But... this is the Minton family's overseas villa. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for me to stay here?"

Sandy waved off her concerns. "What's the big deal? You're my best friend. Staying here is nothing. Even if you moved into our main house, my dad wouldn't bat an eye. Besides, it was Odie's idea to have you here, not mine."

Mentioning Odie made Sandy's expression turn sour.

"Sandy, Mr. Odie is the CEO of the Mintons and your fiancé. You should show him some respect," Vanessa reminded her gently.

"Respect him? Don't make me laugh. Odie's background is so low, he's not even fit to carry my shoes," Sandy scoffed. "I really don't know what Dad was thinking, arranging for me to marry someone like Odie. "Sandy..."

"Don't forget, Vanessa, Odie was nothing but a lowlife from the slums. Uncle White only kept him around because of Colby, treating him slightly better than a dog. Even if Odie's climbed up the ranks, he's still a dog at heart, with lowly blood running through his veins!"

Sandy laughed coldly, completely unaware that Odie was standing right behind her.
