Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) -
Chapter 1219
"Come on! Seriously, what's the deal with you two flaunting your love right now?" Adler couldn't take it anymore. Colby glanced at Timothy and said, "Keep working."
With that, Colby took Sophie by the hand and headed upstairs.
Adler clenched his teeth. "This couple has zero sense of danger!"
Jenna patted Adler's shoulder. "Feels like we're the only ones worried, and they couldn't care less!"
"Exactly," Adler sighed, shaking his head. "What is up with these people?"
Upstairs, Sophie remarked, "Looks like Mr. Gordon wants to cover for Timothy."
"You noticed?"
Sophie replied, "It's glaringly obvious, I'm not that clueless."
Colby led Sophie into their room. "You're not clueless, neither is anyone else. We're all just playing along with Gordon."
"So, does that mean Timothy is really trouble?"
"Yep."
"What's Mr. Gordon's game plan? Pretend we know nothing?"
"Exactly," Colby said calmly. "He's got a bunch of tricks up his sleeve. Probably setting a trap within a trap. If they want Timothy to infiltrate Burke Estate, we'll just turn the tables and try to win Timothy over." "How do we do that? Appeal to his emotions? Reason with him? Or...?"
"Everyone has emotions. If they want to use your kind heart to get inside Burke Estate, we won't hold back, right?"
"But... trading sincerity for sincerity... it feels a bit..."
Sophie hesitated. "Using tactics on a minor, it's not exactly something to be proud of."
"If my wife doesn't want to do it, then I will."
"No way!" Sophie said sternly. "Without knowing his orientation, I won't let you mess around!"
Colby gently tapped Sophie's forehead. "Silly, besides you, I won't fall for anyone else."
"Plus, by now, Jenna and Adler have probably already made their move."
"Move? What move?" Sophie puzzled for a moment, then realization hit her. "You mean!"
"Yep."
"No way, they were so convincing downstairs, but they had already caught on to Mr. Gordon's plan?"
"Exchanging sincerity probably wasn't Gordon's idea, but they might've taken it that way."
Downstairs.
Timothy glanced at Jenna, who was holding a cupcake and looking at him. "Ms. Jenna, did you need something?"
"Me? I just thought, seeing how hard
you're working here at such a young age,
as made you a cupcake myself,
à little treat."
Timothy looked at the cupcake in Jenna's hand, noticing the brand logo still visible, and said, "Ms.. Jenna, if you're suspicious, you can just ask me directly, no need for this."
"I'm not suspicious of you. I know you felt wronged by today's doubts, but I promise, it won't happen again."
Jenna smiled sincerely at Timothy, her eyes full of honesty.
"Jenna, boys don't like cupcakes; boys definitely like cars."
Adler handed his car keys directly to Timothy. "From now on, my car is yours! I know you're underage, and
driving at home must be a se
with your parents. But here,
luxury car is yours to drive! In the Aldridge family, consider yourself at home-do whatever you want!"
