Outside the Pollard residence, Jenna had already stormed out, scanning the surroundings and noticing the car was empty. She frowned and shouted, "Adler! Get out here!"
Hearing her, Adler sheepishly emerged from a corner.
"Jenna..."
Clearly annoyed, Jenna asked, "Why did you run off?"
"As a grown man, how could I trouble two young ladies?" Adler said, trying to butter her up. "You're the one with the power, Jenna. That roar of yours back there was absolutely epic! I heard it from outside!"
"That's only because you're useless!"
Adler quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, you're right! I'm useless!"
Jenna rolled her eyes and said, "Where's Sophie? Didn't she get back safely? You promised to take me to see her, so let's go!"
"Let's visit her tomorrow."
"Why?"
Adler put on a mysterious air, "They say absence makes the heart grow fonder. Why should we intrude and be third wheels?"
Realization dawned on Jenna.
That does make sense!
She asked, "Has Colby already gone to the Burke Estate?"
Adler complained, "Speaking of which! Your brother dashed to the Burke Estate the moment he landed! Didn't even check on his own friend first!"
These past few days, he'd been running around for the Costello family, dealing with S Corporation affairs, ensuring his own family's business was stable, and keeping tabs on contacts in Summerfield while investigating Sophie's kidnapping. He was as busy as ever, while Colby had the time of his life in Summerfield! Not even considering taking him along!
Adler had long wanted to give Odie a piece of his mind! Unfortunately, he missed out on such a golden opportunity.

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....
Excellent novel!...
