Classic Novel
Chapter 830
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.
Jonah, standing behind Odie, had a dark look on his face. He was about to step forward and teach Sandy a lesson but was stopped by Odie.
Meanwhile, Vanessa noticed Odie and turned pale. She reached out and tugged at Sandy's arm.
"What?" Sandy snapped, turning around. Seeing Odie, she showed no sign of panic. Instead, she lifted her chin arrogantly. "What are you looking at? Am I not speaking the truth?"
"Sandy..."
"Stop pulling me!" Sandy said disdainfully. “Even though Colby also came from the slums, at least he's the legitimate eldest son of the Costello family, barely worthy of Vanessa. But you? You're just a clown. I really don't understand why my dad wants me to marry you."
Jonah spoke coldly, "Ms. Sandy, please watch your words."
"And who do you think you are? You think you're worthy of speaking to me? Believe it or not, I could have my dad cut out your tongue and feed it to the dogs!" Sandy retorted.
Odie, watching Sandy's arrogance,
said calmly, "Jonah, Ms. Sandy's status is indeed noble. It's only natural that the Minton family's servants are not fit to speak with
Ms. Sandy. Pass on my com
now on, no maid or nanny is to speak with Ms. Sandy, to avoid sullying her ears."
"Yes, boss," Jonah replied, turning to leave but not before shooting Sandy a cold glance.
If Caelum wasn't Sandy's father, she would have met her end at his hands long ago!
Sandy turned to Odie, "Odie,
Vanessa is my good friend. My dad
wants us to stay in this tiny place to foster out relationship, or I wouldn't bring Vanessa here to embarrass myself. I hope you'll quickly buy a mansion in the city center. Staying in such a small villa is stifling."
Sandy clearly hadn't caught the sarcasm in Odie's previous order. Vanessa, still holding Sandy's arm,
said, "Sandy, I think it's quite nice, etCcontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
here. There are only so many mansions in the city center, and even money can't always buy them. M. Odie has just arrived overseas; how could he possibly buy one?"
