Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

"How could that be possible? I saw you from a mile away." Sophie deliberately lowered her voice, "Just messing with Sandy. I wouldn't do anything to hurt myself."

"But I clearly heard you say you wanted to exchange sincerity for sincerity."

"Yes, my intention to save Sandy is absolutely genuine! But it doesn't mean I have to die..."

"Then why go through all the trouble with this act? Trying to deceive her feelings?"

"It's not deception. How could it be? It's just a bit of strategy. Someone's got to be brave enough to make the first move."

Hearing this, Colby couldn't help but lightly flick Sophie's nose. "You and your cunning plans."

Sophie grinned, all the fierceness from before gone from her face.

This move was unexpected, but the results were surprisingly good. Not only did they catch Ricardo, but now Sandy owed her a huge favor. Sure, there was some calculation involved, but her desire to save Sandy was genuine.

Suddenly, Sophie remembered Logan was beside her. When she turned to check on his hand injury, she realized he had vanished without a trace. Even Ricardo was gone. Sophie frowned.

Had Logan taken Ricardo away? Was it under Kiran's orders, or his own?

"Hey! What are you two going on about? It's freezing out here. Can we get moving?" Sandy complained. She had planned to drive her own car back, but Logan had locked it, leaving her no choice but to rely on Sophie and Colby.

"Alright, alright, we're going." Sophie took Colby's hand, and they started walking slowly.

Just as they were about to leave, Vanessa grabbed Colby's pant leg, saying, "Colby, I'm sorry... I know I messed up. Please don't leave me."

Vanessa's eyes reddened, but Colby didn't even spare her a glance. "You

better turn yourself into the pou

tomorrow morning, or I'll have someone take you there."

Hearing this, Vanessa's hand finally let go. She picked up the pocketknife on the ground and placed it against her neck in despair. "Colby! Don't you care if I die here?"

"Want to die? Go ahead. Don't ask me."

Colby didn't even turn his head. This time, even Sandy ignored Vanessa, and the three of them walked towards the nearby car.

Vanessa didn't expect Colby to be so ruthless. The knife fell from her neck to the ground. In the end, she didn't have the courage to harm herself...

From a corner, James watched Sophie and Colby walking away and took off his mask.

Ricardo was already unconscious from the pain nearby.

When Sophie held a gun while demanding his knife, he realized Sophie wasn't truly seeking death but was performing a self-sacrifice act in front of Sandy. If she really wanted to die, a single shot would have done it.

James smirked bitterly. It seemed Colby was the one who truly understood Sophie.

He glanced at Ricardo lying on the ground. Next, he needed to figure out how to handle this mess.

Devonport was dangerous, and he couldn't let Sophie get involved like Colby did.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
