Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

"Summerfield is Mr. Odie's domain, and we should definitely toast to him. Otherwise, we wouldn't have such a fantastic venue for our wedding, right?" Sophie glanced sideways at Colby, who didn't hesitate. Instead, he obediently picked up the wine glass from the table and clinked it against Odie's.

Seeing Colby tilt his head back to drink, Odie followed suit, downing his glass in one go. Sophie just smiled at the sight. She scanned the main table but couldn't spot Gordon.

"Jenna, where's Mr. Gordon?" Sophie asked quietly, lowering her voice. Jenna looked around but also couldn't find Gordon. "He disappeared after he got here. No idea where he went. Maybe he had to leave early?"

Angelo piped up, "To give such an expensive gift and leave without even having a sip of the celebration wine, does Mr. Gordon have a screw loose?" Jenna kicked Angelo, saying, "Knock it off! If the Aldridge family heard you, they'd flatten you!"

"I'll be flattened by you before they even get a chance!" Angelo muttered.

Sophie said, "It's fine, Mr. Gordon is always busy, and he hasn't left Devonport in years. I'm already grateful he could come in person." She had reserved a special seat for Gordon at the main table. Seeing it empty, she felt a bit disappointed. After all, Gordon was more than just a business partner to her. She didn't dare to hope for too much, but in her heart, she saw him as more than a partner.

"Alright, alright! Time for more toasts! Don't forget mine!" Adler was eager for another drink, while Angelo just wanted to change out of his dirty clothes.

"Sir, aren't you going to have a sip of the celebration wine?" Only Rick knew how much Gordon had put

into this wedding. Gordon merely

smiled faintly and said, "A manet

matter if I'm at the main table or not. There are many things waiting for us back in Devonport. Let's go."

"But leaving like this, Ms. Sophie might be disappointed?"

"My relationship with her is strictly business. Her marriage to Colby is a joyful occasion. Today should be the happiest day of her life." Gordon looked at Colby and Sophie toasting, a look of relief on his face. After all, he had found someone worthy of Sophie. With this, most of his work here was done.

Gordon looked back at Rick and said, "Get the plane tickets ready. We're heading back to Devonport."

"Yes, sir."

As the wedding reception continued and the wine flowed freely, Adler finally mustered the courage. He led Jenna under the rose arch. Jenna was puzzled until Adler knelt on one knee, pulled out a ring, and

said, "Jenna, will you marry me?"
