"Hey, hey, hey! I’ll choose!"
Sophie wouldn't easily pass up an opportunity to make Odie spend a fortune. She meticulously went from piano to piano, selecting carefully.
Odie sat on the couch, watching Sophie with a light smile on his face, appreciating her earnestness.
After confirming the sound quality and the touch, Sophie pointed to one and said, "I want this one."
"The lady has quite the eye. This is the finest piano we have. It was air-shipped directly from France and crafted with exceptional skill."
"That's settled, then. I'll take this one."
Sophie turned to Odie, her face full of smiles. "Mr. Odie, you wouldn't be stingy, would you?"
Without even lifting his eyes, Odie said to the manager, "Have the piano delivered to Minton Casino tonight."
"Yes, Mr. Odie."
Odie stood up and said to Jonah, "Pay for it, and let's go."
"Yes, boss."
Jonah swiftly completed the transaction, which was simpler than expected.
As they were leaving, Odie paused, casually pointed at a piano in the corner, and said, "Buy that one too."
"Mr. Odie, should we send this to the casino as well?"
"Yes."
Sophie glanced at the piano in the corner and said, "That piano looks good, but when I tried it earlier, the sound was average. It was not as expensive as the first. Mr. Odie, why buy two pianos?"
"No need for you to worry."
Sophie purposely hooked her arm into Odie's, playfully chiding, "Odie, who else have you brought here besides me?"
Odie simply grasped her hand firmly, saying, "Of course, you're the only one."
As Odie placed his hand on hers, Sophie immediately withdrew her hand, saying, "Mr. Odie, it was just a joke. I'm going to pick out dresses now."
Sophie walked briskly into the array of gowns, picking out dresses at random.
Odie settled himself on a couch nearby. Sophie found an off-the-shoulder gown and told him, "I'm going to try this on."
"Okay."
Odie didn't look up. Just as Sophie headed to the fitting room, the door opened, and the clerk's surprised voice could be heard. "Ms. Leticia..."
Leticia walked in nonchalantly, but her gaze immediately caught Odie sitting on the couch.
