Chapter 721
The driver quickly drove the car to the doorstep of the Minton family estate.
Upon hearing of a visitor, Jonah personally went outside to greet them, only to find Leticia stepping out of the car. A troubled expression appeared on Jonah’s face. “Ms. Leticia, the boss is still resting. It’s not a convenient time for visitors.”
It was still dark outside. Who would visit at such an hour?
Leticia glanced at the villa, still illuminated, and asked, “Is it that it’s not convenient for visitors, or is it that he’s resting with another woman?”
Hearing this, Jonah frowned. “Ms Leticia, you’re overstepping.”
“I’m only asking because our families have been close for generations.”
Leticia turned to her driver and said, “You can take the car back. It’s too late now. Tell my dad I’ll be staying here tonight.”
“Yes, miss.”
Jonah’s frown deepened upon hearing Leticia intended to stay. “Ms. Leticia, I’m afraid that might not be appropriate.”
“What’s inappropriate about it? Sooner or later, I’ll be moving in anyway, right?”
Just as Leticia was about to enter, Jonah stopped her. “Ms. Leticia, without the boss‘ permission, you cannot go in.”
At that, Leticia pulled out her phone and dialed Odie’s number.
The call was quickly answered, and Odie’s deep voice came through. “What’s the matter?”
“Odie, I’m at your doorstep. Jonah has stopped me.”
After a moment of silence, Leticia switched to speakerphone, and then Odie’s voice could be heard. “Jonah, let her in.”
“… Yes, boss.”
Jonah stepped aside, allowing Leticia to walk in gracefully.
Sophie had just fallen asleep in her room when the door suddenly opened. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and asked, “What’s happening?”
Polly closed the door behind her, making sure to lock it. “Ms. Sophie, the boss has asked me to tell you to stay in your room for a while.”
“What is Odie up to now?”
Polly hesitated before saying, “It’s… Ms. Leticia. She has arrived.”
“Ms. Leticia?”
Odie’s future fiancée?
Sophie pondered for a moment when suddenly the sound of high heels ‘click–clacking‘ could be heard in the hallway outside
Polly quickly turned off the room’s light, and the footsteps stopped right in front of Sophie’s door.
“Ms. Leticia, the boss is waiting for you in the study.”
Sophie heard Jonah’s voice outside and frowned. Odie arranged to meet her in the study. How formal.
think this guest room looks quite nice. I’ll sleep here tonight.”
Leticia’s voice was clear and pleasant. Jonah replied, “The boss meant for you to sleep in the master bedroom.”
Hearing this, Sophie suddenly felt a thrill. The master bedroom? Wasn’t that Odie’s room?
“Alright then, I’ll wait for Odie in his room. Make sure he hurries over. Don’t keep me waiting.”
The sound of high heels gradually faded away.
Polly breathed a sigh of relief, then turned the room’s light back on, saying, “If Ms. Leticia finds out there’s another woman close to the boss, tonight won’t end peacefully.”
Sophie asked, “What would she do if she found out about me?”
“She would have your life.“.
Polly spoke with utmost seriousness.
