Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

“Alright, Ms. Sophie, a representative will assist you moving forward.”

Sophie replied coolly. “If anyone from my family inquires about my bank assets, please consult me first.”

“Understood, Ms. Sophie.

Sophie ended the call.

She had spent two billion dollars on that plot of land, and now her bank account was nearly empty. Her father’s inheritance had always. been stored under that account number known only to Perry.

Unexpectedly, Perry had also told Jessica about it. Clearly, Jessica was no ordinary person.

On the day of her college enrollment, Sophie got up early. Marian had everything prepared for her.

Watching Sophie pack alone, Marian couldn’t help but say, “Mr. James knows it’s your first day of college. How could he not come back to help?”

“It’s fine, Marian, I’m actually more relaxed when he’s not around.”

Hearing Sophie’s words, Marian was taken aback. Didn’t Sophie always wish for him to come home every day in the past?

‘Ding Ding-

The ringing of her phone interrupted her thoughts. Sophie glanced down to see a missed call from Colby.

Colby had been out of touch these past few days, and suddenly he was calling today?

Colby’s voice came through the phone, deep and tinged with a smile, “Congratulations on your first day at college.”

“You must have known about my test scores already, right?”

“Sort of.” There was a pause on the line, then he asked, “Got everything packed for college?”

“Yeah-”

Sophie hadn’t finished her sentence when she realized something. Quickly, her gaze shifted to the floor-to–ceiling windows, where she saw a black Porsche parked below. Colby had already stepped out of the car.

“I’ll drive you.”

Sophie might have been mistaken, but she thought she detected a hint of tenderness in his voice.

When Adler came to help with the luggage, Marian saw these two unfamiliar men and seemed a bit flustered. “Sit, let me help with that” Marian made a move to lift the luggage, but Adler naturally took it from her hands. He gestured for silence, winked, his playful eyes shimmering, “Let us men handle this.”

Even Marian couldn’t help but blush.

Watching Adler’s playful antics, Colby just took the handbag from Sophie’s hand, “Let’s get in the car. I had Adler rent a place next to the college for you, it’s very convenient.”

“A rented place? I remember the houses near Eastwood College are not cheap.”

She had checked them out after receiving her acceptance letter. Not only were they expensive, they were also scarce. By the time she had checked, most were already rented out.

“Tell me about it, it cost me a fortune!” Adler gritted his teeth but only dared to mutter under his breath,

He rented an entire set. How could it not be expensive? These weren’t just any school district homes, these were prime real estate around a prestigious school. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Thinking this, Adler glared fiercely at Colby through the rearview mirror.

“What did you say?” Sophie didn’t catch it the first time.
