Chapter 939

Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)

Chapter 938 Vanessa was on the edge, her voice nearly cracking, "Odie used me as a pawn. I was just a way for him to lose some money! What’s $20 billion compared to the humiliation he put me through, making me a joke overseas? Can it really make up for the dignity I’ve lost?”

“Dignity is something you claim for yourself! Odie gave you a choice, and your own greed got you here!”

“Shut up!” Vanessa shot Sophie a vicious glare. "Stop acting all high and mighty. Do you think you're better than me? If you were, why did you throw yourself at Colby? At your engagement party with Colby, Jenna, Adler, and even Gordon were all there backing you up! You had Reece and Julian supporting S Corporation for you, and James couldn’t stop thinking about you. With all these people loving you, why did you have to take Colby from me?”

Sophie hadn’t realized how much resentment Vanessa held toward her. She scoffed, "I fought tooth and nail for everything I have. Do you think if it were you, Colby would love you? That Jenna and Adler would protect you? That Gordon would have your back? Why do you think Reece and Julian support S Corporation for me? Because I'm pretty? Or because I'm the heiress of the Russell family? Vanessa, there are plenty of women prettier than me, and you’re the sole daughter of the White family. You should know, what I have isn’t just because of these titles.”

Sophie glanced at Sandy, who was trembling under Vanessa’s threat, and said coldly, "I would never put a knife to a friend who’s genuine with me, nor would I scheme against those who truly care for me! Colby loves me because I’m brave and willing to fight. Adler protects me because he cares deeply, knowing I won’t betray Colby. Jenna stands by me because I treat her with genuine care, and she returns it. Gordon backs me because I’m valuable to him. Reece and Julian support S Corporation because I help them achieve their dreams too! And James? He’s haunted by guilt because he cheated during our marriage. And you? Why do you threaten Sandy, who truly cares for you? For your ridiculous idea of love?”

Every word from Sophie hit Vanessa like a dagger to the heart.

Vanessa clenched her teeth, her voice fierce, “Shut up! Just shut up!”

Vanessa’s emotional turmoil made her hand tremble, and the knife nicked Sandy’s neck.

Sandy cried out in fear, and Sophie softened her tone, “Vanessa, you need to realize that to be loved by others, you first need to love yourself. Only when you shine can you attract others. Sandy is the only person who truly cares for you. Hurting her will only lead to a lifetime of regret.”

“Don’t preach to me! If you really believe in heart-for-heart, then kill yourself right now! I promise, if you die, I’ll let her go!”
