Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 1513

Colby showed up in just thirty minutes flat. Normally, the drive from the airport to Aldridge Estate takes a good forty minutes at least. No doubt, he must've been running red lights, speeding, and pulling off some wild stunts to make it there so quick. The alarms outside the Aldridge Estate were blaring nonstop. Someone was definitely trying to break in. Inside, Odie slipped on his noise-canceling headphones, knowing all too well how Colby operates. If he can't get in the easy way, he doesn't mind going for the hard way. But this time, he was here to see Sophie, so he had to play nice and not upset her. He probably didn't break in, but he definitely set off the alarms.

As expected, the Aldridge family's security team rushed to the front gate. When they saw who it was, they were taken aback. There was Colby, standing solo outside the iron gate with a gun in hand. He must've shot an alarm, setting off every single one in the place. "Colby, what's going on here?" The lead guard stepped up, trying to negotiate. One on the inside, one on the outside, and the tension was thick.
