Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 898

"So, you never relapsed. You and your spouse set a trap, huh? Waiting for me to walk right into it?"

"Mr. Odie, I gotta give it to you, you're pretty sharp when you want to be."

Though, not often enough.

Sophie gave a small smile and said, "Mr. Odie, do you think we can leave now?"

Odie, grinding his teeth in frustration, couldn't find the words to respond. Sophie feigned surprise and said, "Oh right, I guess I don't need your permission."

Turning to Colby, she smirked and said, "Honey, let's go."

"Alright."

Colby walked beside Sophie.

One of Colby's men held a knife close to Polly's throat, her face pale as she was forced to follow them.

"Boss..."

Polly's face was ghostly white, but Odie didn't even glance her way, letting Colby's man take her.

Odie disregarded her safety completely, and Polly's expression grew even more distressed.

Odie coldly said, "Colby, take her, but make sure this place is cleaned up."

Without looking back, Colby waved dismissively at Odie, "The cleaning crew will be here in an hour."

Watching Colby and Sophie boldly leave through the Minton family's grand entrance, Odie stepped back, growing more infuriated by the second. Jonah, standing by his side, said, "Boss, are we really letting them go? And they took Polly with them?"

"What can we do? Can you beat him?"

"No."

"Or do you think our useless bunch at home can take on Colby's entire crew?"

"…No, they can't."

However, he didn’t care much since the phone held no incriminating evidence. It was essentially useless to them. It also served as perfect bait for a bigger catch.

Later, during Sophie's captures, she spoke convincingly, and Polly hadn't reported back about Sophie wanting to retrieve the phone.

He never asked, assuming Sophie wanted revenge for her kidnapping by using the phone.

To think, after all this time, Sophie had been the one setting the trap.

It infuriated him!

Meanwhile, at the Pollard residence.

"Alright, got it. Hanging up now."

Angelo ended the call and turned to James, who was still deep in thought in the study. "Relax, I just got the news. Your ex-wife and her current husband have left the Minton Estate. Nothing major, just a bit of a scuffle, from what I heard."

Hearing Angelo's phrasing, James glanced at him, "Next time, just say their names. Skip the descriptions."
