Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 321

Colby spoke in a deep voice, "You did nothing wrong. When dealing with such people, you can never afford to be too kind or too lenient."

Sophie understood in her heart. When Isaac had tried to kill her before, she had already shown mercy once. Now, Jessica and her son even made their move against Perry. This made all her previous acts of kindness seem like a joke.

Colby took Sophie's slightly trembling hand, softening his voice for once, "Trust me, nothing will happen."

Colby was always rebellious and indifferent, showing interest in hardly anything. Yet, at this moment, Sophie could hear an unusual tenderness in his tone.

People always said Colby was a grim reaper who had walked out of hell itself, leaving a trail of brutality and bloodshed wherever he went, but in her eyes, Colby always had a gentle and tender gaze, even though he pretended to be indifferent and unwilling to get close to anyone.

Meanwhile, in the study of the Burke family, Colt reported to James, who was sitting at the desk, "I’ve investigated thoroughly. Those photos must have been Isaac’s doing."

James looked at the computer screen, which showed Isaac escorting Sophie to her room and then sneaking out of the hotel room. There couldn’t be another suspect but Isaac.

As James remained silent, Colt couldn’t help asking, "Mr. Burke, today’s incident clearly had nothing to do with you. Why did you take the blame? Doesn’t this just make Mrs. Burke dislike you more?"

"It’s better she hates me than treats me like a stranger."

James regained his composure and said to Colt, "Go to the Russell family and find Isaac. I will take care of this personally."

Colt was startled, "Mr. Burke?"

Over the years, James never got involved in underhanded dealings because the head of the Burke family needed to be above reproach. Otherwise, if caught, it could lead to their downfall.

"Mr. Burke, let me handle this matter."
