Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1237

In the bedroom on the second floor, Gordon lay in bed, looking quite unwell.

Rick stood at the doorway, noting Sophie and Colby's return, and closed the partially opened door.

Rick said, "Mr. Gordon's condition has been all over the place and hasn't really improved. This time, the illness hit him hard, and he might be bed-bound for several days."

Next door, a team of medical specialists was in a meeting.

Sophie glanced at Timothy, who was cleaning on the second floor, then asked, "Can Colby and I go in to see Mr. Gordon?"

"The master needs rest right now, so only one of you can go in. Who will it be?"

Rick's gaze fell on Colby.

Colby got straight to the point, "Who does he want to see?"

"..." Rick cleared his throat and then looked at Sophie, saying, "Maybe Ms. Sophie should go in."

"..." Sophie was a bit taken aback. These people loved to beat around the bush; even their way of speaking was a test of patience.

"Alright, I'll go," she said.

Rick opened the door, and Sophie walked in.

Outside the room, Colby leaned against the wall and deliberately lit a cigarette.

Rick said, "Mr. Colby, smoking is prohibited on the Burke Estate."

"Will he die if I smoke?"
