Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 900

In the heart of the Costello family mansion, Polly was dragged before Sophie by one of Colby's men.

"Don’t move!"

Polly's face was ashen. The moment she saw Sophie, she lowered her head, filled with panic and confusion.

Sophie’s voice was icy. "Polly, I've kept my end of the bargain. People should keep their promises, right? Did you give what I wanted to Odie already?"

"I'm sorry, Ms. Sophie… I'm really sorry… That phone wouldn't have been any use to you. I had to give it to Odie to earn his trust!"

"Ms. Sophie… I'm really sorry, but I hope you can understand me. I couldn't just let it go. I had to be by Odie's side to gain his trust. I wanted to find evidence of his crimes!"

"And did you?"

"I..."

"You've been around Odie for a long time, haven't you? Does Odie trust you? Or have you gotten close to the core of the Minton family?"

"I..."
