Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1581

"Don't bother telling them all this; they still fancy themselves the saviors of the world, thinking they've made some grand contribution to saving it. Honestly, these kids are just adorably naive."

Sophie chimed in, "I'll give you ten minutes to process everything I've just laid out. If you don't start talking by then, I'll assume your brain's a lost cause. And if that's the case, I'll have to hand you over to this gentleman here. Trust me, he won't be as patient or persuasive as I am. When your own flesh and blood is on the line, you'll see whether your so-called savior turns up."

Sophie's glare and tone already gave Spencer the verdict.

The verdict was clear: they wouldn't.

The world is brimming with people in misery; a savior won't spare you a glance.

Choking back tears, Spencer began slowly, "About six months back... my family went under, my dad got sick, and all those relatives and friends who used to be close to us disappeared. I was left with no choice but to work at a nightclub to make ends meet."

Sophie asked, "So you were overseas then?"

"Yeah, my family, the Starks, were overseas. We weren't celebrities or anything, but we were pretty well-off entrepreneurs. My dad even sent me to the best schools abroad. Then out of nowhere, he tells me we're bankrupt."

Spencer's face twisted with bitterness at this point.

Colby, standing nearby, commented casually, "The Stark family overseas has always been among the top three Western pharmaceutical manufacturers. Their sudden bankruptcy six months ago was because a batch of drugs had trace elements way over the limit, making them harmful. Overnight, the factory shut down, and all the drugs were snapped up by some unknown group. The Stark family has been in the medical field for three generations without anything like this happening. This disaster might have been intentional."

Spencer was taken aback by this revelation.

Jenna added, "Kena is from Summerfield, and just as your family faced this turmoil, she happened to be abroad. Doesn't that strike you as odd?"

"Using your family's money to cover your dad's funeral expenses, Kena's got her calculations down to a science. I'm honestly impressed."
