Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 847

Hearing this, Odie's eyes narrowed dangerously.

Back when Colby injected him with a full syringe of some new drug to save Sophie, it left Odie needing a fix every few days to manage the addiction. Clearly, Colby had access to the Mintons' latest concoction. Was it meant for Sophie?

“No wonder she looked so good last time I saw her, not begging or anything. Turns out Colby got our drugs to help her kick the habit,” Odie sneered. He had thought Sophie had some serious self-control, but that didn't seem to be the case.

“Pass on my orders,” Odie said. “Pull our new drug from the market and stop sales for now.”

“Stop sales? If Sophie has to go cold turkey, what about our regular clients? They might turn on us when they can't get their supply.”

“Don't worry. As long as we have the stock, they'll come crawling back when they can't find it anywhere else, Sophie included.”

Odie glanced at the computer screen showing a photo of Sophie and Colby strolling hand-in-hand on some overseas street, and a sly smile spread across his face. He was looking forward to seeing Sophie, desperate and begging him for a fix.

Meanwhile, Colby wasted no time putting what he'd learned into practice.

In the bathtub, Sophie pouted, “The table was too hard. It was uncomfortable.”

“Next time, we'll switch it up. Maybe the kitchen, the balcony, or even the couch.”

As Colby teased her, Sophie blushed and playfully hit his chest. “Stop that!”

Steam filled the bathroom, and as Colby looked at Sophie's flushed face, a wave of arousal washed over him. He whispered, “My dear wife, even when you're mad, you're gorgeous.”

Before Sophie could respond, Colby kissed her, pinning her against the side of the tub.

Sophie was breathless from the kiss, and just as things were heating up, Colby's phone rang from the other room. The sound snapped Sophie back to reality. She bit her lip and pushed him away. “Go answer the phone.”
