James' expression grew colder still.
Which notable figure gave that order? James knew every important person in Devonport.
Officer Derick was visibly embarrassed. Ever since Sophie had been imprisoned, he hadn't had a moment's peace!
He had barely managed to send Jenna on her way, and now James was here.
Officer Derick said, "Mr. Burke, rest assured, Ms. Sophie is very safe with us. There won't be any issues. Once we complete the process, we'll be able to release Ms. Sophie very soon."
"Who's your boss?" James pressed, causing Officer Derick to break into a sweat. He could only step closer to James, lowering his voice to say, "Mr. Burke, you know him. He's already bailed her out. Please, don't make this harder for me."
Officer Derick's plea was sincere.
Sophie had already been taken away. Still, Everyone kept coming to the station! Being the chief here was truly challenging.
"Is it Colby?"
James could only think of Colby, but he hadn't expected Colby, who was currently abroad, to still have that much reach into the Devonport police department.
"Mr. Burke, that's all I can say. You definitely won't be able to see her here," Officer Derick didn’t finish his words before James stood up to leave without a hint of reluctance.
Colt said, "Mr. Burke, could Officer Derick be making things up? I've investigated, and Mrs. Burke hasn't left the police station since she entered."
"Check thoroughly. I want to know her whereabouts."
"Understood."
"And investigate the people Colby left in Devonport. There should be some leads."
"Colby?"
Colt was taken aback. "Then isn't Mrs. Burke not in danger?"
James coldly replied, "I need to know where exactly Colby has hidden her to ensure her safety."
"Understood, Mr. Burke."

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....
