Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 325

"Hold tight."

Colby quickly started the car, and Sophie fastened her seatbelt again.

In the dead of night, Colby's car sped towards the Russell estate, running every red light along the way.

By the time Sophie got to the Russell estate, the place was in disarray. Tricia and a group of battered bodyguards were sitting in the living room. Upon seeing Sophie, they all stood up.

"Ms. Sophie!"

Tricia approached and said, "Everyone is accounted for except for Isaac. James has left Jessica in the basement."

"I'll go check on her."

Sophie hurried to the basement, with Colby leading the way, fearing that Jessica, in desperation, might do something to harm Sophie.

As Sophie opened the basement door, Jessica immediately lunged at her, but before she could get close, Colby kicked her back.

"Please! I beg you, release my son!" Jessica was terrified. She was locked up in the basement for less than half an hour, and the darkness had nearly driven her mad.

"Did James take Isaac? Did he leave any message?"

Jessica shook her head frantically. "Nothing at all! He just took my son without a word. Sophie, I know it's my fault. This was my bad idea and had nothing to do with my son! Please, let my son go."

Sophie couldn’t get any useful information from Jessica. She frowned slightly and said to Tricia, "Let's go."

"Yes, Miss."

"Sophie! Please, let me out! Save my son! I’m begging you. Please save my son!" Jessica's voice faded as the basement door closed behind them.

Sophie's face appeared flushed, and her breathing was unstable.

"She's running a fever." Colby frowned, lifted Sophie in his arms, and said to Tricia beside him, "Call a doctor now. I want them here in twenty minutes!"

"Right away!"

Tricia immediately went to call a doctor, while Colby, holding Sophie, went upstairs to her room, and lay her gently on the bed.

The room's dim lamp cast a soft light as Colby touched Sophie's forehead again, his frown deepening.

Tricia said from the doorway, "Mr. Colby, the doctor is on their way."

"Get some cold water."
