Chapter 781 Outside the Pollard residence, Jenna had already stormed out, scanning the surroundings and noticing the car was empty. She frowned and shouted, “Adler! Get out here!” Hearing her, Adler sheepishly emerged from a corner. *Jenna…” Clearly annoyed, Jenna asked, “Why did you run off?” “As a grown man, how could I trouble two young ladies?” Adler said, trying to butter her up. “You’re the one with the power, Jenna. That roar of yours back there was absolutely epic! I heard it from outside!” “That’s only because you’re useless!” Adler quickly agreed, “Yes, yes, you’re right! I’m useless!” Jenna rolled her eyes and said, “Where’s Sophie? Didn’t she get back safely? You promised to take me to see her, so let’s go!” “Let’s visit her tomorrow.” “Why?” Adler put on a mysterious air, “They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Why should we intrude and be third wheels?” Realization dawned on Jenna. -That does make sense! She asked, “Has Colby already gone to the Burke Estate?” Adler complained, “Speaking of which! Your brother dashed to the Burke Estate the moment he landed! Didn’t even check on his own friend first!” These past few days, he’d been running around for the Costello family, dealing with S Corporation affairs, ensuring his own family’s business was stable, and keeping tabs on contacts in Summerfield while investigating Sophie’s kidnapping. He was as busy as ever, while Colby had the time of his life in Summerfield! Not even considering taking him along! 1/3 12:56 Adler had long wanted to give Ode a piece of his mind! Unfortunately, he missed out on such a golden opportunity. Meanwhile Colby, looking weary from his journey, arrived at the Burke Estate. Gordon had been waiting in the hall for a while. When Colby entered, his clothes still emanated a chill, and Gordon knew he had hurried over. Colby asked, “Where’s Sophie?” Gordon calmly replied, “Upstairs.” The next second, Colby was about to dash upstairs when Gordon suddenly said, “You’re going up like that?” Hearing Gordon’s words, Colby realized he hadn’t slept in over two days, his face was covered in stubble, and he looked utterly worn out. It had been years since Gordon had seen Colby in such a disheveled state. “Rick, prepare some warm water for Colby, let him change his clothes, and shave off that beard,” Gordon ordered. Then, he added, “Keep a close eye on him. Don’t let him slip away in his impatience.” Pausing, Gordon then said, “But no worries, the Aldridge estate is so vast, he won’t know which guest room Ms. Sophie is in without me telling him.” Hearing this, Colby smiled, a rare sight these days, “Your men can’t keep me from my wife, I’m too anxious to find her.” With that, Colby took off his overcoat, handing it to Rick, and then swiftly ascended the stairs. Normally, he would have taken the time to tidy himself up, but today, he couldn’t wait any longer. Being apart for just under a week felt like decades to him. He longed to see Sophie, not willing to wait another moment! … Read More “Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn CHAPTER 781” »

Chapter 780 As soon as Sandy’s words left her lips, a deafening bang echoed from outside the door. A dozen Costello Corporation bodyguards stormed into the room. Sandy, never having witnessed such a scene, jumped to her feet in terror. “Who are you people? What do you want?” Spotting the Costello Corporation crest on their uniforms, Vanessa’s face grew even more grim. “Colby… It must be Colby…” Vanessa stood up, ready to rush out and find Colby, but it wasn’t Colby who walked in–it was Jenna. Vanessa froze at the sight of Jenna. Jenna smirked. “Ms. Vanessa, in a hurry to leave? Looking for Colby, are you?” “Colby… Why didn’t Colby come?” Vanessa’s eyes darted around the room, desperately searching for Colby. But apart from Jenna and the Costello bodyguards, there was no one else. Colby… didn’t come! “Colby wants nothing to do with you. He sent me to tell you he’s no longer bound by the promises he made to your late father. From now on, stop using.. your father’s name to bother Colby, or I won’t be so nice!” Jenna’s tone was cutting, and Vanessa quickly shook her head. “No… Colby wouldn’t treat me like this… He promised me, he…” “Enough! Vanessa, during your stay in Devonport, Colby had people looking after you. And what did you do? Let people think you were Colby’s lost love? Exploit the Costello family’s resources in the entertainment industry? Colby might turn a blind eye to other things, but hurting Sophie is unforgivable!” Jenna’s voice was icy, “Not only will Colby never like you, but I don’t like you either, and our grandfather wouldn’t approve of you. You’ll never set foot in the Costello family!” 1/2 12:56 Sandy sprang up, seething. “Jenna! Who do you think you are? You’re just a relative of the Costello family. Stop acting high and mighty!” *True, my last name isn’t Costello, but I belong to the Dennis family of Devonport. Think you can mess with us?” The bodyguards behind Jenna swiftly tied up the Pollard family’s security and tossed them at Sandy’s feet. Sandy was always the princess of the Pollard family, and had never been so humiliated. She yelled, “Jenna! You dare tie up Pollard family people? You must have a death wish!” “In Summerfield, I have crossed many who deserved it, and you’re no exception,” Jenna shot back coldly. “Even if the Pollard family is a big deal overseas, here in Devonport, you need to show some … Read More “Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn CHAPTER 780” »
Chapter 779 Sophie asked, “Mr. Gordon, is Colby coming back tonight?” “Are you still hung up on that? Do you realize if you can’t kick this habit, your life is over?” “I can get through this.” Gordon let out a bitter chuckle. “Minton International has been dealing drugs for years, making a fortune off it. So many lives destroyed. What makes you think you’ll be any different?” “If I didn’t have the determination, I wouldn’t have come back to Devonport. I could’ve just stayed by Odie’s side, right?” Sophie lowered her gaze. “Besides, I knew from the start he injected something into my arm.” From the night Odie kidnapped her, Sophie knew she had been injected with drugs. Odie kept her close, betting she wouldn’t dare leave him. “Odie has always underestimated women. He thought he could control me with drugs, that I’d be obedient and not dare to leave him. But he never considered that I could beat this addiction.” Even Gordon doubted whether she could overcome her addiction, so Odie definitely wouldn’t think she could. Sensing the determination in Sophie’s eyes, Gordon finally looked away. “Aldridge Global will provide you with the best medical facilities. You’ll stay here for a while and go nowhere.” “Okay.” Sophie agreed immediately, then tentatively asked, “And Colby…” “I’ll handle Colby.” Gordon knew Colby’s temperament–protective and volatile. He’d go ballistic if he found out. Hearing this, Sophie breathed a sigh of relief. The drug Odie had injected her with was diluted, and it took about a week to take effect, possibly triggered by 1/2 12:56 the coffee she had that morning. As long as she could endure the next few months, she’d be fine. “Mr. Gordon, I need another favor.” “Go on.” “I want you to use my name and bank card to buy cocaine from Minton International.” She couldn’t let Odie find out about her detoxing. Her only option was to deceive him, making him believe she was satisfying her addiction by buying from Summerfield. 1 Gordon quickly understood her plan. “Don’t worry about that. I’ve got it covered.” It was the afternoon, inside the Pollard family’s mansion. Sandy handed Vanessa the newspaper, saying, “Sophie really does have nine lives, coming back alive like that!” Vanessa’s face turned pale at the sight of Sophie in the newspaper. Sandy was even more infuriated. “How on earth does Odie handle … Read More “Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn CHAPTER 779” »
Chapter 778 Gordon’s grip on Sophie’s wrist tightened. She tried to pull away, but his strength was too much for her. As Gordon’s expression grew colder, Sophie had no choice but to nod. “Mr. Gordon… it’s okay…” “Okay? You call this okay?” Gordon’s brow furrowed deeply, his eyes locked onto hers. “Do you realize how dangerous this is?” Of course Sophie understood. She knew all too well. But what was done was done, and their priority now was to figure out how to deal with it. *Odie only injected me once, and I think the purity was low.” “Have you had any symptoms yet?” Even with low purity, a single injection could cause addiction, and that was deadly. “…I’ve had one episode, but it wasn’t too bad.” “Ridiculous!” Gordon’s voice was filled with anger. “Why didn’t you tell me about this immediately?” Sophie rarely saw Gordon so upset. She quickly pulled her hand back, saying, “I was exhausted last night, I didn’t want to worry you. And… I didn’t want Colby to find out.” If Colby found out, he’d definitely go after Odie. But Summerfield was too dangerous. If they were going to confront Odie, they needed a well–thought–out plan. Acting rashly would only lead to trouble. Hearing this, Gordon was silent for a moment. He then turned to the butler, “Rick, get the doctor here right away, and keep this under wraps.” “Yes, sir.” Once Rick left, Gordon looked at Sophie, his voice serious. “Come with me.” With Rick gone, Sophie tried to help push Gordon’s wheelchair, but he ” replied, “I’ve got it.” 1/2 Chapter 778 He wheeled himself into the elevator. “Mr. Gordon, I didn’t mean to hide it from you, I just…” Gordon’s tone was indifferent. “Alright, you don’t have to explain to me. Think about how you’re going to explain it to Colby tonight.” Gordon was usually patient, handling everything with ease, but Sophie could tell he was genuinely angry this time. In the guest room, the doctor Rick had called was taking a blood sample from Sophie. The room was equipped with the most advanced medical devices since Gordon’s health required regular home checks and treatments. Sophie never thought she’d need them too. As the machine analyzed the results, Gordon watched Sophie sitting on the bed and asked, “Are you sure it was only once?” Sophie nodded. “I’m certain.” “Mr. Gordon, we have the results.” The doctor handed the report to Gordon. “Ms. Sophie’s blood shows anomalies. It looks like a new type of drug was used, injected directly into her bloodstream. It must … Read More “Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn CHAPTER 778” »
Chapter 777 Sophie didn’t buy a word of Nichole’s bluster. “Sure, have Ms. Rowena come up with that billion first, then she can ask me for that box,” she retorted. Turning to the security guard, she said, “Show her out.” The guard approached Nichole, “Ms. Rowena, please leave.” Nichole, seething with anger, slapped him hard. “Who do you think you are, telling me to leave?!” Sophie’s eyes turned icy. She wasn’t keen on getting involved, considering her frail health, but Nichole was pushing her luck. Just as Sophie was about to head downstairs to put Nichole in her place, Gordon’s voice cut through the tension, “Rick, shut her up.” “Yes, sir.” Gordon’s butler, Rick, stepped forward and delivered two crisp slaps to Nichole’s face. She didn’t even have a chance to fight back, and the bodyguards from Burke International trying to intervene were swiftly taken down by Rick. His skills were even more impressive than Jonah’s, Odie’s right–hand man. Rick stepped back behind Gordon, who wheeled himself over to Nichole. Seeing Gordon, a flicker of fear crossed Nichole’s face. She remembered how he had once stepped in when she falsely accused Harold of misconduct. Gordon was known as one of the most intimidating figures in Devonport. Forcing a smile, Nichole said, “Mr. Gordon…” Gordon’s voice was cold and unforgiving, “Ms. Rowena, by attacking a member of the Aldridge family, you’ve made an enemy of us.” “But Mr. Gordon… he’s just a security guard, he…” “Even if he’s just a security guard, he’s still part of the Aldridge family, and no one harms our people.” Gordon cut her off, his tone icy. “You can leave on your own, Ms. Rowena, or my people will throw you out.” 1/2 12:55 Rick’s menacing presence left Nichole no choice. Feeling the sting on her cheeks and a wave of humiliation, she stormed out. Why? Why, despite being a wealthy heiress and the future Mrs. Burke International, couldn’t she command respect from these people? And why did Sophie, who was bankrupt, still have so many loyal supporters? It was so unfair! As Nichole left, Sophie descended from the second floor. “I could have handled it myself, Mr. Gordon. You didn’t need to come down.” Gordon, always swamped with responsibilities, barely had time for a … Read More “Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn CHAPTER 777” »

Chapter 773 “I’m really okay,” Sophie said, her voice weak but determined. “Is Colby safe? Did he make it back alright?” “Everything’s fine,” Gordon reassured her. “We’re already on our way back. The plan was foolproof; everyone’s safe.” “What about James? Why hasn’t he come back to Devonport?” Gordon’s face hardened at the mention of … Read More “Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn ( James ) Chapter 773” »
Chapter 772 On the ship, Sophie was finding it harder and harder to breathe, her body burning up like she had a fever. She could even hear her own heartbeat racing faster and faster.
