Sophie's coffee hit the floor with a clatter, and Colby immediately bent down to clean the stain off her high heels.
"Sorry, I'm late." Colby's voice was low.
Sophie rarely saw Colby like this. He was humble and choked up, his eyes full of guilt. Soon, she noticed the fine scars on Colby's hands and the bandages wrapped around his wrist. Evidently, he was injured.
Sophie reached out, grabbing Colby's arm to inspect his wounds. "You're hurt?"
Who in the world could hurt Colby?
"Hurt? What happened? Wasn't Adler with you on this trip? Where is he?"
Jenna looked around but didn't see Adler anywhere, her face turning pale in an instant. "Could Adler be..."
Colby replied calmly, "He's on the plane, hasn't landed yet."
Jenna's brewing emotions vanished in an instant. "You should have said so earlier. I knew it. That penny-pincher wouldn't just lose his life on a trip with you."
Sophie asked, "What have you been up to these past few days?"
"Dealing with some remnants of the White family. It was a bit dangerous, so I came back late."
Jenna frowned, sensing this wasn't simple. She asked, "Didn't Mr. Elwood leave the White family in your hands? The remnants of the White family were all vicious thugs under Mr. Elwood. Did you take care of them?"
The White family was a criminal organization abroad, not to be trifled with. When Mr. Elwood handed the White family over to Colby, it was nothing short of dragging Colby into the mire.
