Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 1855

"Loving someone doesn't need a reason."

Sophie looked at Colby, her eyes earnest. "My brother, he's the best person to me in this whole world, the most important."

As Colby took in the soft features of her face, an unexpected flutter stirred in his chest. They strolled through the amusement park together, the world around them slowly winding down. Just when the park was about to close, Colby's phone buzzed with a call from Gordon.

"I need to take this," he said.

Sophie nodded, understanding.

Stepping away, Colby answered. Gordon's voice came through, steady and firm.

"This time, I'm not letting you off easy."

It was a simple statement, yet it triggered a flood of memories for Colby. Memories of another time, another world where he and Sophie had first crossed paths and eventually found their way to each other.

It all started on his first night back in Devonport. Gordon's team had been waiting at the airport, and Rick himself had come to greet him. Later, in the quiet study of Aldridge Manor, it was just him and Gordon.

"There's an auction tonight that I can't attend. I need you to go for me," Gordon had said, a rare request from him.
