Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Half an hour later, in the CEO's office at S Corporation-

Sophie glanced at the accounts in her hand, eyes wide with surprise. "Not only did we not lose money, but we actually made quite a profit? Mr. Adler, you've really outdone yourself. I'm impressed!" "Seriously?"

Jenna came over, and after seeing the substantial profit, she chimed in, "It must be because of the decisions made after Sophie left Devonport. Otherwise, how could we have made so much money?"

"It wasn't me!" Adler quickly added. "All the credit goes to Mr. Gordon. You have no idea; after Sophie left, Elodie went nuts attacking S Corporation. With my limited skills, I couldn't handle it. Mr. Gordon took care of everything!"

Sophie asked, puzzled, "How did Mr. Gordon manage that?"

"I don't know, maybe he used some kind of charm offensive or something."

"Get outta here! You think Mr. Gordon is like you?" Jenna smacked Adler on the back of his head and said, "Even if you used your rear end to think, you should know that Mr. Gordon dealt with Reeves International through business savvy and connections. Otherwise, how could Elodie have been so restrained?"

"I was just saying! Why'd you hit me?" Adler pouted, feeling wronged.

Hearing Adler mention Mr. Gordon's intervention, Sophie asked, "Has Mr. Gordon been at Burke Estate all this time?"

Adler nodded. "Yeah, where else would he go? I bet he's hardly ever left home. This time, he flew directly to Summerfield for your and Colby's wedding, which was a big deal! Mr. Gordon is really a stand-up guy."

As Adler spoke, he paused for a moment, noticing Timothy standing at the door. He pointed at him, saying, "Maybe you should explain first. You went to the Minton family and came back after three days with a young bodyguard. What's that about?"

The young bodyguard looked rather handsome, albeit young.

Adler whispered, "No one cares in Summerfield, but here, hiring child labor is illegal."

"Shut up!" Jenna smacked Adler on the back of his head again, saying

"What are you talking about! Sophie

and Colby would never hire child labor."

Sophie said, "It's not child labor, just a minor."

Hearing this, Jenna and Adler were stunned.

A minor?!

Sophie continued, "Consider him a prisoner of war under my command, to be ordered around at will."

Sophie spoke in a voice only the four of them could hear.

Jenna then whispered, "So, this young worker is a spy?"

Adler whispered even softer, "A

minor

a spy? Does he have the et

smarts to match you all? Sophie will

w him for sure." Conte willContent provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Sophie said, "He won't be outplayed. He could be useful to keep around."

Colby, watching the three rare moments of silliness, gently shook his head.

"Babe, it's time to go home." Colby gently reminded her.

He had prepared their new house, which they had yet to visit.

Only then did Sophie remember that she had promised Colby on the plane that they would go to their new home to spend their belated wedding night. Sophie stood up, took Colby's arm, and said, "Sorry everyone, I need to accompany my husband back to our new home first. Let's catch up tomorrow."

Adler, watching this scene, said with contentment, "Happiness, pure happiness. Tonight will surely be blissful."
