Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1302

Colby shot a glance at Odie, who was blocking Sophie's way, and his eyes turned icy cold.

Odie, at a loss for words, looked at Colby and said, "I wasn't done talking."

Colby replied with a cool detachment, "Well, you're done now."

Odie turned to Sophie and said, "I still have something to say..."

"Mr. Odie, I'm heading to bed. You should catch some sleep too," Sophie said with a dismissive wave.

Odie's expression darkened even further.

Soon, Sophie was outside her room, and Colby made a point of closing Odie's door as he left.

Seeing this, Odie was about to burst out and confront Colby, but Jonah quickly stepped in to stop him.

"Boss, you're still hurt..."

"Injured or not, you think I'm scared of him?"

Odie made a move to storm out, but Colby opened the door first, his tone nonchalant, "If you didn't like me shutting your door, I'll just leave it open for you."

That remark completely set Odie off.

"Sure," Colby murmured.

Sophie glanced at the ledger on the table, a wave of unexplainable anxiety and fear washing over her.

"We both need to come out of this alive."

"Of course."

"Colby, what if one day we end up like my parents did?"

"Why the sudden pessimism?"

"I'm just worried the person behind this is more powerful than we think."

"It won't come to that."

Colby gently brushed Sophie's hair, reassuring her, "At worst, we'll face it together. I'll always be by your side."
