Seeing Colby unmoved, Angelo cleared his throat and said, "Look, it's pretty straightforward. I'll help Sophie draft an article that'll stir public opinion and really put this so-called 'real heiress' in her place!" Colby stayed silent, giving nothing away.

"What I'm saying is... since Claire's claiming to be the Russell family's heiress, I'll dig up all the dirt on her. Make sure everyone knows she's a total fraud!" "Is that it?"

"There are a lot of things I don't say outright, but that doesn't mean I'm clueless."

Colby, with a cool demeanor, added, "Tell whoever sent you that I'm not handing Sophie over to anyone but myself. Tell him to cut the games."
