Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 99

"Fine, if we let them go home, their neighbors won't get a moment of peace tonight."

Adler buckled his seatbelt and tapped Jenna on the cheek. She was sitting beside him in the passenger seat. "Hey, don't fall asleep! You'll catch a cold when we get out." Jenna was already fast asleep, completely ignoring what Adler was saying.

Sophie, sitting in the back, also felt drowsy from the warmth of the car's heater. Her cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red.

From the back seat, Colby pulled out a blanket and draped it over Sophie. "Take a nap. We'll be there soon."

Sophie obediently nodded. She was indeed feeling tired and soon leaned against the car window and fell asleep.

Meanwhile, James closed his laptop in his study. The room was silent. He rubbed his temples and picked up his phone, but still no message from Sophie.

Soon after, Colt returned his call.

James answered, "Where's Sophie?"

"She seems to be at a nightclub."

"A nightclub?" James frowned.

Sophie rarely frequented such places. She had only done so recently to meet Harold. After the last uproar on the internet, why would she dare to go to such a place again?

"It seems so. I couldn't hear well, but it was noisy, and it sounded like she had been drinking and didn't want to come back."

Hearing this, James was even more upset. "Send someone to replace her! She's a young woman at a nightclub in the middle of the night. Is she out of her mind?"

"Mr. Burke, please don't worry. I've already sent someone, and we should hear news soon."

They had connections in all the well-known nightclubs in Devonport, and it was easy to replace someone from their circle.

James said, "Call me immediately once you replace Sophie."

"Yes, Mr. Burke."

James hung up, feeling suffocated.

There was a knock on the door. Nichole opened it to see James grabbing a suit jacket from the rack. She paused, asking, "Where are you going this late at night?" "Just out for a bit. It's late; you should get some rest." James didn't intend to explain further.

Nichole, holding a cup of coffee, said, "Is it for work? I just made this coffee. Maybe have it before you go. It'll keep you alert for your meeting."

"I'm going to replace Sophie."

Nichole was taken aback. "Find Sophie?"

"Yeah." James picked up his car keys, his tone reassuring, "Just put down the coffee and go to bed. If you need anything, you can talk to Marian."

"But I..."

Nichole wanted to say more, but James already walked away.

Nichole was left feeling uneasy. James was aware of the hurt Sophie had caused her, yet there he was, heading out in the middle of the night to replace Sophie.

Why? Clearly, before Sophie came into the picture, she was the only one James cherished.

As James drove through the vibrant streets at night, Colt called again and hesitantly said, "Mr. Burke, the owner of Charm Nightclub, said that Madam and Ms. Jenna went together, and later, Adler and Colby picked them up."

James paused, and after a long silence, he finally spoke, "I got it."

After hanging up, he couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. He should have known the relationship between Sophie and Colby was not ordinary.
