Chapter 781

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 Ode a piece of his mind! Unfortunately, he missed out on such a golden opportunity.

Meanwhile

Colby, looking weary from his journey, arrived at the Burke Estate. Gordon had been waiting in the hall for a while. When Colby entered, his clothes still emanated a chill, and Gordon knew he had hurried over.

Colby asked, "Where's Sophie?"

Gordon calmly replied, "Upstairs."

The next second, Colby was about to dash upstairs when Gordon suddenly said, "You're going up like that?"

Hearing Gordon's words, Colby realized he hadn't slept in over two days, his face was covered in stubble, and he looked utterly worn out.

It had been years since Gordon had seen Colby in such a disheveled state.

"Rick, prepare some warm water for Colby, let him change his clothes, and shave off that beard," Gordon ordered. Then, he added, "Keep a close eye on him. Don't let him slip away in his impatience."

Pausing, Gordon then said, "But no worries, the Aldridge estate is so vast, he won't know which guest room Ms. Sophie is in without me telling him."

Hearing this, Colby smiled, a rare

sight these days, "Your men can't keep me from my wife, I'm too

anxious to replace her."

With that, Colby took off his overcoat, handing it to Rick, and then swiftly

ascended the stairs.

Normally, he would have taken the

time to tidy himself up but today, he ve

couldn't wait any longer.

Being apart for just under a week felt like decades to him.

He longed to see Sophie, not willing to wait another moment!

In the guest room, a maid had prepared warm water for Sophien Ms. Sophie the bath is ready. You're injured, allow me to help you wash."

Sophie nodded, and the next second, the door was suddenly pushed open with a 'bang'.
