Chapter 1363

Odie being around was one thing, but when Griffin and Elodie showed up too, it sent shivers down his spine just looking at Griffin. Earlier, when Griffin had carried Colby inside, he didn't dare say a word. William, trying to boost his confidence, cleared his throat and shook out his arms as he walked in. With so many big shots gathered, it wasn't just Adler who was feeling the pressure he was too.

Julian and Booker stood off to the side. Julian asked, "Need any medical gear? I can get some brought over."

"No need, the Aldridge family is well-equipped!" William replied.

Colby's palm was bleeding. William caught his breath and said, "You really went hard on yourself."

As he spoke, William took a blood-stained ring from Colby's hand, examined it, furrowing his brow a bit, and said, "That's quite the diamond ring! Must have cost a fortune." Everyone's eyes shifted to the ring in William's hand.
