Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 913

"Colby, Odie's right, sometimes you really do ask for it."

"Honey, with you, I'm all heart and no malice."

"Really?"

"Absolutely!"

"The first time we met, you made me lose 8 billion dollars. How do we settle that?"

Colby nervously sipped his now-cold coffee, furrowing his brows. "This coffee's gone cold. Let me get you a fresh cup."

"Get back here!" Sophie grabbed Colby and pulled him back.

Colby had no choice but to sit down in front of Sophie. "Whatever my wife says, goes."

"I'll let the 8 billion slide for now, but what about the dinner party in two days?"

"Let's go. Consider it a show."

Sophie raised an eyebrow. "Everyone knows Vanessa has a crush on you. Are you going there to give them something to talk about?"

"I won't go, but you will." Desperate to stay in her good graces, Colby added, "I'll just escort you from outside the hotel and won't look at another woman."

Sophie nodded, satisfied. "Good, I'm pleased."

Meanwhile, in the Pollard family's study...

Angelo was frantically searching through computer entries, replaceing nothing. A sense of defeat began to rise.

"Where's my trending topic? Gone? All gone?"

Angelo couldn't believe it. Who could be so quick to block it on all channels?

James took a sip of his tea. "Stop wasting your energy. You won't replace it."

"Who did it? Is there someone in Devonport more influential than you, James? I want to take him as my mentor."

James glanced at Angelo. "With your brain, you'd drive him to his grave."

"Really? I think I'm pretty smart."

"Before, I just thought you were foolish. Now I see you're foolish and unaware of it."

James set down his tea, walked over to Angelo. "Have you memorized the people I told you to?"

"Memorized!" Angelo held a list. "Odie, my almost brother-in-law, well, not anymore. He's got a lot of gossip. Had a fiancée named Leticia, who died. Clearly a husband who brings bad luck. Then there's our Sandy. Good thing the engagement was called off! Otherwise, Sandy might have also met a terrible fate."

"Who told you to remember that?"

"Isn't that it?"

Angelo looked down at the information. "The key person in the Minton family, had a fiancée named Leticia who fell to her death. I said he brings bad luck to his wives, no problem at all!"

James frowned. "I told you to look at what properties he owns, how his companies operate, where the main revenue streams are, how many illegal ventures he's opened overseas recently. Why do you remember all this nonsense?"

"Sorry, habit... occupational hazard. The things you mentioned have no sensational value, too mundane!"

"No sensational value?"

"That's right."

"The Minton family involved in drug trafficking, Minton family dinners as fronts for prostitution, wealthy tycoons confessing openly in the banquet hall, performing a live adult film, Odie's former fiancée serving many Minton partners, eventually jumping to her death unable to bear the torment..."

With each revelation, Angelo's eyes lit up more. "What happened next? Anything else?"

"Want to know?"

Angelo nodded eagerly like a pecking chicken.

James threw the documents into Angelo's hands. "Read the documents yourself."
