Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Sophie watched Gordon's serious expression, feeling an unexpected sense of trust growing within her.

"Mr. Gordon, you're always so deceptive... I hardly dare to believe anything anymore," she said.

"Whether you believe or not is your choice. Whether I speak or not is mine," Gordon replied with a slight smile. "So, Ms. Sophie, do you believe or not?"

Anyone else might have had their doubts about Gordon. He was the mastermind, the one person no one could read. Yet, Sophie felt a strange sense of kinship with him. She always claimed she didn't trust him, but deep down, she sensed he had his own agenda. Despite her reservations, she always ended up working with him. And every time, she was the one who benefited the most.

"I believe you," Sophie said. "No matter what others think, I trust what Mr. Gordon says."

For a fleeting moment, Gordon's expression softened, almost imperceptibly. He quickly regained his composure. "Never trust anyone so blindly, even if they are the closest to you," he advised.

"Well, Colby would never lie to me. And Mr. Gordon, you wouldn't either," Sophie insisted.

"Everyone has secrets they can't share. How can you be so sure Colby is completely honest with you?" Gordon asked, looking directly at Sophie. In that moment, he saw the love for Colby in her eyes.
