Adler caught the look in Jenna's eyes and quickly changed his tune. "Ms. Sophie, don't get me wrong. Colby is loaded. It's just that, well, he hasn't quite sorted his finances yet."
Adler was about to continue, but Jenna cut him off with a glare. "What do you mean 'hasn't sorted his finances?' Can't you speak clearly?"
Adler immediately closed his mouth.
Jenna sat next to Sophie, saying, "This is just something among the men. You don't need to worry about it. Once Colby truly wins your heart, I bet he'd gladly give the entire Costello estate as a gift for your wedding!"
Sophie blushed, "What would I do with such a huge estate!"
"Oh, come on, it's just a metaphor."
Jenna wrapped an arm around Sophie. "Anyway, you're the only sister-in-law I recognize! No other woman can come close!"
Sophie was silent. What she desired was never wealth or riches.
After experiencing so much manipulation and strife in her past life, all she wanted in this life was to find her soulmate and live a peaceful life together.
No betrayals, no plots, no deception, just an ordinary couple.
As the night deepened, the club's lights intertwined in a dance.
In the private room, Ricardo, with his striking features, wore a black shirt slightly open at the chest, gently swirling a glass of whisky in his hand.
Ricardo raised his eyebrow and chuckled. He spoke in a deep voice, "Mr. Burke, Colby's men were just here during the day, and now you've come. Ms. Sophie must be quite extraordinary to have both of you gentlemen concerned."
James sat opposite Ricardo, his voice cold. "I don't care what Colby's men told you, but Sophie is my wife. If you cause her trouble in Devonport, you'll pay the price."
Suddenly, the door was kicked open, and a group of bodyguards in black burst in, each armed with stun batons.
Ricardo's gaze turned icy.

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....
