Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1718
When Sophie came to, it felt like she was waking up from a deep, dreamless slumber. Her eyes fluttered open, and she found herself in a hospital’s intensive care unit. The sunlight pouring in through the window was almost blinding. Colby was right there beside her, having stayed up all night.
“Where’s Gordon?” Sophie’s voice was thick with emotion, almost breaking.
The room was filled with silence. Odie, Jenna, and Adler were there too, but no one dared to speak.
“Colby, please, tell me,” Sophie pressed, her voice calm but quivering underneath.
Colby struggled to find the words.
Sophie turned her gaze to Jenna, her eyes brimming with a pain she couldn’t hide anymore. Everyone could see how hard she was trying to keep it together.
“Jenna, you have to tell me.”
“I… I…” Jenna stammered, unable to say what needed to be said, her eyes meeting Sophie’s.
Adler, flustered, offered, “Maybe… maybe you should rest a little more…”
“He’s in the morgue. Do you want to see him?” Odie finally broke the heavy silence.
The air seemed to freeze with those words.
Sophie’s eyes immediately filled with tears. She turned her head stubbornly, fighting to keep her emotions in check. “I’m not going.”
Odie continued gently, “He passed last night. They’re taking him to the funeral home for cremation in an hour. If you don’t go, you’ll miss your chance to say goodbye.”
“I’m not going! I said I’m not going! I’m not!” Sophie’s composure shattered, and she pounded the bed with her fists, trying to release the tidal wave of grief inside her.
Colby watched, aching to reach out and comfort her, but he knew Sophie needed space right now.

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
