Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 1197

Colby tapped his temple and said, "Because up here, you just can't match me."

Griffin barely had a moment to realize they were surrounded in the yard. His sharp hearing picked up on the footsteps all around, confirming there were at least a hundred people encircling them. Colby had really pulled out all the stops for Sophie, rallying so many from the Costello family.

"I told you, as long as I'm here, no one's getting in. That includes you and your men."

Griffin's gaze turned icy, like he was staring at a dead man.

"Boss, we've located the lady and Ms. Elodie."

Griffin's brow furrowed tightly. "Impossible! There's no way your men found them!"

"They're in the basement of the Reeves family house downtown. You like playing tricks, so I figured I'd join in," Colby said coolly. "I didn't come here to rescue Sophie today. I came to catch you."

Griffin still clutched the explosive device, but now it was just a useless trinket to Colby.

Colby knew the Reeves family had a basement. The first time, his men hadn't found Sophie and Elodie because Griffin had already moved them. When Griffin thought the house was empty, he took them back to the basement. This trick might fool others, but not Colby.

"Now you see why I've been the head of the White family for so long, and you were just an assassin."

"Colby, you know I'm an assassin. If I wanted to kill you, I could," Griffin said coldly. "You can't beat me. I'll kill you, then Sophie, and Elodie will still take back control of Devonport."

Colby flicked his cigarette before crushing it underfoot. "Go ahead and try."

Without hesitation, Griffin pulled out a short knife and lunged at Colby for a close-quarters fight.

""Boss! Catch this!"

One of Griffin's men tossed a pistol to Colby, but Colby threw it back.

Instead, Colby drew a small knife from his waist and began the close combat with Griffin.

Griffin's attacks were deadly, each aiming for vital spots. At first, he had

the upper hand, but soon enough, he

realized his moves were no match for Colby.

Colby effortlessly dodged and Griffin had already used up his best tricks.

"Is that all you've got?"

Everyone in Devonport knew Colby was fast with a gun, but few knew his knife was even faster.

In just a moment, Colby found Griffin's weak point. With a light flick of his knife, he left a trail of blood across Griffin's neck.

The cut immediately drew blood.

Griffin retreated quickly, but still, blood beads appeared on his neck.

As an assassin, Griffin knew that cut was aimed at the vital artery. If he hadn't dodged quickly, it would have been fatal. "Not convinced? Then let's go again," Colby said, his face expressionless. "I can keep this up until you admit defeat."

Provoked, Griffin charged forward,
