Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 386

The bodyguard struggled frantically.

Ricardo remained silent, watching as the bodyguard's wrist was struck hard with a hammer, eliciting a cry of pain before he finally passed out.

Ricardo's gaze was icy. He was aware that Devonport was James' territory, and picking a fight now would leave him with no chance of winning.

Moreover, Colby had already sent people to look for him during the day.

"It's settled."

James stood up, glancing at Ricardo with an emotionless look. "Mr. Cloude, if you wish to settle accounts for Nichole, I'm always ready, but I doubt you have the means."

James' men followed him, and a group left the nightclub.

Ricardo's assistant stood by his side, frowning. "Sir, are we just going to let this go?"

After all, the Cloude family was a dominant force in Bloomsbury, yet James showed them no respect!

"It's not James I'm afraid of."

"Then, who is it, sir?"

"It's Colby."

Ricardo frowned deeply. He hadn't anticipated Colby and James to cause such a commotion for one woman. Had he known, he would not have acted rashly.

Rubbing his temples, Ricardo asked, "Where's Nichole?"

"Ms. Nichole should be at home waiting for you to return."

"Remember to arrange a meeting between her and Briggs tomorrow."

"Sort of."

Unable to contain her curiosity, Sophie asked, "How did you resolve it?"

The Cloude family was a powerful force in Bloomsbury, and she was curious about how Colby managed to make Ricardo yield.

Colby pulled out a credit card and placed it in Sophie's hand. "No more, no less, fifty million."

"Five billion?"

Sophie was taken aback. She had been slapped, and Ricardo offered five billion.

"Is this some kind of compensation?"

"I made him cough up five billion, but I never said that taking the money would be the end of it."
