Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 148

The next moment, James grabbed his keys and left the hospital, his face still slightly pale. Colt followed closely behind, only to see James get into his car and speed away with a push of the accelerator.

"Mr. Burke!" Colt called out from behind the car, but James showed no sign of stopping. Soon, he was out of sight.

At that time, Sophie was resting in her apartment, lying on the bed, while Adler was bustling about in the kitchen and Jenna was trying to help but mostly getting in the way. Colby simply sat on a nearby sofa, reading the newspaper.

The scene was quite cozy, and Sophie found herself longing for this kind of warmth.

In her past life, she had lost her parents early. Even when she stayed with the Perry family, everyone was always on their guard, and it had been a long time since she felt the warmth of a family.

If only it could always be like this.

James drove to the outside of Sophie's apartment and dialed her phone number. There was no answer on the other end.

James' hand holding the phone turned slightly pale. He got out of his car and walked to the security office.

"Sir, who are you looking for?"

"I'm looking for Sophie."

"Are you a friend of the resident?"

"I'm her husband."

James' voice carried a hint of restrained frustration.

The security guard stared at James somewhat blankly. He had just seen Ms. Sophie and three friends go upstairs, and he had never seen the man before him.

"Sorry, could you have the resident come down to meet you? Or maybe you could contact the resident so I can let you in."

James' expression became dangerously sharp. He pulled a business card from his pocket clearly marked with 'CEO of Burke International, James Burke.'
