Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 111

Jenna had never expected James to cough up such an amount, but she wasn't one to argue with money. Despite a bit of a kerfuffle, it was a lucrative deal!

"Has the compensation been deposited?"

It had only been an hour, and even Jenna was surprised by the speed.

"I guess he must have used his personal account to transfer the money to my company; otherwise, it couldn't have been this quick. Oh, James must be trying to protect his dignity. That’s why he used his own money."

Sophie noticed that Colby and Adler were not in the office and couldn’t help but ask, “Where are they? With such a big issue at the company, how come they are not here?”

"You know Colby’s temper. He vanished the moment he heard the company was in trouble, and he made me promise not to tell you. He probably knew it was James causing trouble and went off to plan his revenge."

Sophie nodded thoughtfully. It made sense for Colby to seek revenge, but why keep it from her?

"I was so angry today that I called you. Colby will definitely be mad at me when he finds out!"

Jenna looked frustrated, so Sophie suggested, “Now that it’s resolved, you should call Colby now to prevent any chaos.”

After all, this was Devonport, and James was right about one thing—Devonport was his turf. Even if Colby had some influence here, he couldn't outmatch James, and it could only lead to trouble.

If James were pushed too hard, who knew what could happen?

"Don’t worry, Colby knows what he’s doing. At most, he’ll just cause a few days of trouble for James’ company."

Jenna thought it over but didn’t quite believe her own words, and eventually, she pulled out her phone and dialed Colby’s number.

The call was disconnected after one ring.

Jenna was stunned and told Sophie, “He—he hung up on me.”
