Chapter 1499

Adler glanced at Colby, who was sitting there like a statue in the car, and turned to Jenna with a smirk, "This guy's just pretending to be cool! Inside, he's probably freaking out, but he's putting on this 'I don't care' act. Watch this!" With that, Adler swung open the car door and yanked Colby out by the arm, muttering through clenched teeth, "Come on, man! My wife's mad, and I don't want to look like a fool in front of her!"

Colby let himself be dragged out without a fuss.

Jenna stepped up, "Colby, you know Sophie isn't the kind to mess around. She's probably waiting for you to explain things, or maybe she's just trying to get under your skin! Go up there, talk it out with her, and sort this whole mess out! You hear me?" "Yeah, listen to your sister. What's the point of playing hard to get? Keep this up, and Sophie's gonna end up marrying someone else!" Adler chimed in, nudging Colby toward the hotel. But Colby just stood there, unmoving.

Out of nowhere, a few Costello family bodyguards showed up, and without a word, started pulling Jenna and Adler away.

"Hey! What's the big idea? Let go, or I'll make you regret it!" Jenna protested, ready to throw down, but she knew these were Colby's elite guards. No way she could take them on! Soon enough, Adler was bundled into a car too, both of them whisked away like they were being express-shipped somewhere far off.

Once they were gone, peace finally settled over the street. It was late, and the place was nearly deserted.
