Frowning, Jonah said, "Mr. Burke, you knew Sandy and Vanessa are tight. If you go ahead with this engagement, the Pollards will flip out. Why didn't you mention this earlier?"

James replied calmly, "The Burkes, Pollards, and Whites aren't particularly close. I had no idea Sandy was so close to Vanessa. If I had known, I would never have suggested your engagement to Vanessa." "But you just said..."

"I read it online."

James pulled out his phone, showing an article that detailed the love triangle between Odie, Sandy, and Vanessa.

With a teasing tone, James remarked, "Didn't know you had such a colorful love life."

Jonah was about to chime in, but Odie, with a dark expression, cut him off, "Enough!" There was no point in blaming anyone now.

Taking a deep breath, Odie said, "Let's head home." Then, he moved towards the car.

As Odie was about to open the car door, James, frowning, said, "Mr. Odie, that's my car."

"I know. My car's broken, remember?"

Odie, unfazed, turned to Jonah, "Jonah, get in."
