Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 1440

The young man's eyes always carried that defiant glimmer, but he never really thought about what that defiance might cost him. Finally, Mr. Elwood gave him a look.

But Colby said he wasn't cut out for the job. That was the first time Colby had stabbed him in the back. Yet, he didn't hold a grudge against Colby. Everyone wants a shot at moving up in the world, and he figured Colby felt the same way.

In the end, Mr. Elwood decided to keep him around. Just as he was dreaming about standing behind the big shots, wearing a bodyguard's uniform, reality hit him like a ton of bricks. Mr. Elwood wasn't looking for just any bodyguard; he wanted someone who could deal with problems permanently.

Colby tossed him the only tube of ointment he had. Griffin, with his icy demeanor, remarked, "Don't bother with him. He insisted on coming, like he's got a death wish."
