Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

As everyone got lost in their own thoughts, Sophie caught a glimpse of Harold standing not too far away.

Harold seemed to have appeared out of thin air. Everyone else was too engrossed in the news to notice his arrival.

Just then, Adler, following Sophie's line of sight, finally noticed Harold standing behind him. He jumped and exclaimed, "Harold, are you trying to scare us to death by sneaking up like that?"

"I've been here for a while now. It's just that you were all so focused on the news you didn't see me," Harold responded.

Jenna chimed in, "Joining the army has really changed you, Harold. Even I didn't notice you sneaking up. Good job on the stealth."

She gave Harold a friendly pat on the shoulder.

"Jenna, I'm not a kid anymore. I have a name, you know. Stop calling me that," Harold replied.

Jenna waved him off, "Little brother is always gonna be little brother. Don't forget who taught you the roundhouse kick back in the day!"

The tension in the room eased a bit.

Sophie said, "Let's head to the office. Who knows what kind of mess is out there now. At the funeral yesterday, someone actually had the nerve to mess with us. Unbelievable, right? Back in the day, no one would've dared."

"Was it that Zhao guy?" Adler cut in. "He's nothing! The Costello family was already on top when Zhao's ancestors were still shining shoes! Don't worry, Sophie. He messed with the wrong family. I'll handle it!"
