The switchblade had barely missed Colby's right side, and blood was already starting to ooze out.

"Freeze!"

A group of police officers rushed in, quickly surrounding James. James raised his hands, but his eyes were fixed on Sophie, who was anxiously tending to Colby. Sophie turned to James, the instigator of it all. "James! Are you out of your mind?"

She had imagined countless ways James might come after her, but she never thought he would stoop so low to take her out for the sake of Burke International. James said coldly, "It's a pity I couldn't kill you, but this should repay Colby for stabbing me before."

"You!"

"Take him away!"

The police immediately escorted James to the squad car. Medics arrived shortly after, and Colby, noticing Sophie's teary eyes, gently brushed her hair and smiled, "I'm fine, it's just a scratch."

"The blade went in, and you call that a scratch? Who told you to follow me? Idiot!"

Sophie hit Colby on the shoulder in frustration, causing him to finally kneel on the ground.
