Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 153

The manager looked up in surprise, "Ms. Sophie, you're the CEO. Isn't it a bit too flattering for you to meet with an employee personally?"

Usually, just the mention of a breach-of-contract fee would make Reece comply without argument. But this time, something was off. Reece wasn’t even listening to his boss and had the nerve to speak so defiantly.

Sophie grabbed her bag and left the office. She drove to Reece’s address according to the information she had.

Reece’s neighborhood seemed modest. Her luxury car stood out as it pulled into the cramped, aging apartment complex, drawing curious looks from some bystanders.

The manager, keen to please, hurried to open the car door for her, saying ingratiatingly, "Ms. Sophie, let me walk you up."

"I'll go up myself."

The building was old and housed mostly elderly residents. It lacked an elevator, forcing Sophie to climb the stairs.

She reached the third floor and knocked on a rusting door.

Soon, the door swung open. A man in casual home wear appeared before Sophie.

He was tall, with green eyes that carried a hint of clarity. Standing nearly six feet four inches tall, he towered over Sophie by at least a foot, his striking good looks making him stand out.

The man seemed taken aback by Sophie’s appearance, but quickly regained his composure, his voice deep as he asked, "Who is it?"

"Reece, who’s there?" From inside, an elderly voice called out.

"Grandma."

Reece was about to respond when Sophie stepped forward, smiling, "Hello, Grandma, I'm Sophie."

All of this stemmed from the partial sidelining by Russell Entertainment during Reece’s early career.

Reece served tea to Sophie, though his expression was hardly welcoming.

"Sophie, have you eaten? I will make something delicious for you. I’m making apple pies today." Gianna cheerfully announced as she headed to the kitchen.

Reece looked coldly at Sophie, "What do you want?"

"What if I said I'm here to support you with more resources? Would you believe me?"

Reece frowned, clearly skeptical of Sophie’s intentions. "The company being this kind-hearted?" Reece's voice grew colder, "Ms. Sophie, you see the state of my family. I don’t have time to waste with you."

"I’m serious about making you a star."
