Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 1405

Julian and Booker were familiar faces to Odie, but this Reece character? He was a mystery. Reece, aware of Odie's curious gaze, flashed a polite smile his way. That was like trying to punch a pillow-it just made Odie even more frustrated. Julian chimed in, "We heard S Corporation was having a rough patch, so we thought we'd drop by and see if we could lend a hand." He glanced around the room, taking in the mountain of paperwork. "Looks like you've got your hands full." Even Julian hadn't seen such an overwhelming stack of documents before. Booker jumped in, "Ms. Sophie, Julian's got a knack for handling this kind of thing. If you're okay with it, we'd love to pitch in and get through these files before the day's over." "Thanks a bunch, Booker and Mr. Julian," Sophie said, clearly grateful.

Reece added, "I can help too. I've got a few days off from overseas, so it's no trouble."

Sophie gave Reece a playful pat on the arm, "Much appreciated, superstar."

"We're all in this together. It'd be weird to get all formal," Reece replied.
