Chapter 1725
Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Harold said, âAlright, let's get moving. We've got a ton to deal with, and we can't expect Adler and Jenna to handle everything themselves.â
Sophie shook her head. âLet them take the reins for a bit longer while theyâre still up for it. I've got a hunch Adler's about to throw in the towel.â
âThrow in the towel?â Harold frowned.
Colby chuckled from the sidelines.
Adler had been close to losing it these days. His temperament wasn't exactly CEO material, but since there was no heir for the Tredgold family, he was the one who had to step up, inheriting Wesleyâs shares and leading the Tredgold family.
Honestly, it would be a miracle if Adler took to managing the Tredgold family chaos willingly.
Eventually, it would all fall back to them anyway.
âLetâs have a get-together tonight,â Harold suggested. âIâve booked a private room at the Four Seasons. Itâll be a nice chance for everyone to catch up before we all go our separate ways.â
They had all come together initially because of The Silent Shadows, and with that chapter closed, it was time to return to their own lives and ventures.
Sophie nodded. âHave you reached out to everyone?â
âYep, everyoneâs been knee-deep in The Silent Shadows stuff, but theyâve managed to free up some time for tonight. Whoever can make it will be there.â
Harold glanced at Colby, âI sent an invite to James too, but who knows if heâll turn up.â
Colby shrugged, âHe wonât.â
Sophie raised an eyebrow. âHow can you be so sure?â
âHe hasnât got the nerve.â
â...â
Seeing Sophieâs bewilderment, Harold laughed, âMaybe he just wants to be part of the action. Mr. Colby, your ex is doing quite well these days; you might want to keep an eye out.â

ï¤Chapter 782 âMy wife loves me; he doesnât stand a chance.â Colby said, holding Sophieâs hand with a confident smile.
By evening, Sophie and Colby were the first to arrive at the private room, while Harold stepped out to make some calls.
Not long after, Adler and Jenna showed up, looking worn out from work.
âHonestly, donât make us do this again. We're still on the mend, remember?â Adler said, gesturing to his injured shoulder.
Jenna chimed in, âExactly, Iâm not much better off.â
âAdler maybe, but Jenna, youâve bounced back like a champ. William said he's never seen someone recover so quicklyâbuilt like an ox, he said.â
Harold walked in with a teasing grin, and Jenna quickly tugged his ear, âBig talk for someone in charge of the Aldridge family! Donât think I wonât put you in your place!â
âOw, Jenna! That hurts!â Harold yelped, begging for mercy.
âLooks like everyoneâs early. We thought weâd be first,â Elodie and Griffin said as they walked in. They were running a new business in Devonport, making travel a breeze.
Griffin looked around, âNo sign of Odie?â
They hadnât seen Odie in days.
Colby replied, âShould be here soon.â
Jenna remarked, âWho knows what Odieâs been up to, burning the candle at both ends. Up before dawn and gone all day. Maybe heâs seeing someone?â
âSeeing someone? I doubt it.â
