Chapter 1529
Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
In Devonport, Jenna and Adler were glued to their phones, trying to catch any news about Summerfield. Even a whisper would do, but the day dragged on with radio silence about the place.
âAdler! Seriously, are you even trying? How can you be so bad at gathering intel?â Jenna shot Adler a frustrated look. If Adler had even a smidge of Colby or Harold's skill, they wouldn't be stuck in this information blackout.
âIâm doing my best, but Summerfield is sealed tighter than a drum. Even when Odie was around, Colbyâs crew could barely crack what was happening there, and now itâs just me,â Adler said, looking genuinely put out.
Jenna could only stew in her frustration. Then, out of the blue, Adlerâs face lit up with an idea. âWait a minute, why donât we just ask Odie? Heâs the kingpin of Summerfield. If anyone can dig up info, itâs him!â
âSure, just like that. But, do you really think we can waltz into the Aldridge familyâs turf?â Jenna replied skeptically. They had tried the Aldridge Estate before, but it was locked tighter than a vault, making entry nearly impossible.
âIâm stumped otherwise. Besides, Sophieâs not one to let things slide, and with Colby heading over, maybe theyâll patch things up. Jenna, you shouldnât stress over someone elseâs drama,â Adler offered earnestly.
Jenna frowned, retorting, âThis isnât just anyoneâs drama, itâs my brotherâs family weâre talking about. Seeing them like this is tearing me apart.â
âHey, donât let it get to you. Iâm right here, arenât I? Colby and Sophie have been through thick and thin to be together. They wonât just throw that away. Itâs probably just a spat, and theyâll sort it out soon,â Adler reassured her.
Jenna nodded, hoping Adler was right. âI really hope so,â she murmured.
Just when they thought things couldnât be that bad, a news alert pinged on their phones. The headline photo showed Colby kneeling in the fountain at the Pearl Hotel, looking nothing like his usual self.
Jenna froze, eyes wide. Adler rubbed his eyes in disbelief before exclaiming, âHas Colby lost it? Whatâs he doing?â
Then they spotted Sophie in the photo too. âNo way, theyâre going all out? This is no joke!â Adler had never seen Colby on his knees before. This was a new low.
âIf this wasnât from the most credible news source in the world, Iâd call it trash. What are they even saying? And how could Colby kneel in front of everyone like that?â Adler muttered, reading the article accompanying the photo. It detailed that during a dinner at the Spellman familyâs, Sophie, jealous, had publicly scolded Colby for getting too close with Ms. Gina.
