Chapter 966
Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
When Angelo and Sandy got the invitation to Burke Estate, they were both pretty bewildered, finding themselves plopped down on a sofa with no clue what was going on.
Adler and Jenna leaned in, scrutinizing Angelo and Sandy with wary, suspicious eyes.
"Hey! Why are you looking at me like that?" Sandy snapped at Jenna, clearly annoyed.
Angelo, feeling a bit uneasy, echoed, "Yeah, why are you staring at me like that?"
Adler stroked his chin thoughtfully. "Suspicious, very suspicious," he mused.
"You two are the eldest of the Pollard family. Is the Pollard family planning something big in Devonport?" Adler asked. "Iâve heard Kiran Pollard, the eldest son, is quite the hotshot internationally. His eloquence, demeanor, and discipline are top-notch. His decisive and swift strategies have made him a real mover and shaker." Jenna looked at Angelo earnestly and added, "Someone like that, how could he possibly be wearing cartoon pajamas?"
Angelo, dressed in SpongeBob SquarePants pajamas, shot back, "I was still sleeping when you hauled me over here. What's wrong with my clothes?
These are limited edition! You probably can't even get them!"
Halfway through his retort, Angelo noticed the stares fixed on him.
"Mr. Pollard, we're very curious about why you and your sister are visiting Devonport. Surely itâs more than just a casual trip?" Adler pressed.
Angelo was about to object when Sandy blurted out, "We're definitely not here for sightseeing."
Instantly, all eyes turned to Sandy.
Trying to recover, Sandy quickly added, "I mean... I'm here to repay a favor! I have no idea what my brotherâs up to."
"Hey! You!" Angelo, feeling betrayed, was ready to blow up, but then he noticed Adler and Jenna's skeptical looks again.
Suddenly, Jamesâs advice echoed in Angeloâs mind: 'Never let anyone guess what you're thinking. That way, you can always have the upper hand.'
Clearing his throat, Angelo leaned back on the sofa and said coolly, "Why should I tell you why Iâm in Devonport?"
Opposite them, Sophie and Colby watched Angelo's demeanor. Sophie raised an eyebrow, thinking how comical Angelo lookedâtalking like a CEO while wearing cartoon pajamas.

ï¤Chapter 782 "Alright, Mr. Pollard, forget we asked," Sophie said, standing up. "But I guess you donât have a place to stay in Devonport? Why not stay with us at Burke Estate? Itâs more fun with more people."
"Weâve got places to stay," Angelo shot back. "The Pollard family owns several houses in Devonport!"
"Oh, come on, the best place in Devonport is Burke Estate. Donât be shy," Adler insisted, pulling Angelo to his feet. Jenna, with a forced smile, did the same with Sandy, adding, "Oh, this young lady seems so charming. Letâs all stay together. We can have afternoon tea and go to the beauty salon."
Adler and Jennaâs overly enthusiastic hospitality left Angelo and Sandy thoroughly puzzled.
