Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 773

"I'm really okay," Sophie said, her voice weak but determined. "Is Colby safe? Did he make it back alright?"

"Everything’s fine," Gordon reassured her. "We’re already on our way back. The plan was foolproof; everyone’s safe."

"What about James? Why hasn't he come back to Devonport?"

Gordon's face hardened at the mention of James, clearly not eager to discuss it. "That's his business, not ours."

"Sir, the car's here."

"Alright."

Gordon turned to Sophie. "Let's get in the car. We can talk about everything else later."

"...Okay."

Sophie nodded and agreed.

On the way back, she leaned against the car window, exhaustion etched on her face. She didn't even have the strength to speak.

Meanwhile—

At the Minton family estate in Summerfield, Jonah had wrapped up the mess at the casino. He walked into the study and reported, "Colby's people wrecked most of it. We've taken a big hit. Sophie's missing, but James says she's been sent away."

"I see," Odie replied coldly.

"Boss, should we send someone to Devonport to bring her back?" Jonah asked.

"No need," Odie chuckled darkly. "She'll come crawling back on her own soon enough."

He had never seen anyone withstand the new drug Minton International had developed.

"When she's had her fill of suffering, she'll come back begging me. Until then, no point wasting our energy looking for her."
