Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1271

On the second floor, Sophie led Angelo into her room. The moment Angelo realized Sophie was leading him to her bedroom, his mind started racing.

"Sophie, with Colby not around... is it really okay for me to be here?" he asked, feeling a bit uneasy.

Sophie plopped down on the couch and reassured him, "Angelo, only Colby and I know about Kiran. This room is soundproof and bug-proof; it's the best place to talk."

"Oh! Got it!" Angelo said, feeling a mix of relief and confusion. He had thought...

Sophie cut to the chase, "Actually, I'm curious. Did Kiran also come to Devonport?"

"Him? In Devonport? No way!" Angelo exclaimed. "The man's dead. Could his spirit have flown back or something?"

But then Angelo remembered the time he got caught by Sophie and Colby while snooping into Sophie's daily meals. Out of desperation, he had lied, claiming that Kiran had a crush on Sophie. Within the Pollard family, Kiran's death was a tightly guarded secret, not to be shared with anyone. Even though Sophie and Colby were close, he wouldn't dare spill the beans without the old man's permission.

Sophie pressed on, "Why are you so sure Kiran didn't come to Devonport?"

"My brother is always swamped with work, busy overseas 24/7. There's no way he'd come to Devonport without a good reason. I used to handle all his business trips!" Angelo explained, puzzled. "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"

Sophie then tossed a pair of Bluetooth headphones in front of Angelo. "Do you remember these?"

"These? They're just Bluetooth headphones, right?" Angelo responded.
