Chapter 508

Sophie glanced at Colby and quickly figured out what was going on. She spoke into the phone to Tricia, "All right, I know why. I'll contact him later."

"Okay, Ms. Sophie."

After hanging up, Sophie turned to Colby and asked, "Did you sneak a look at my phone?"

"I didn't..."

Colby didn't seem to be lying, and Sophie remembered her phone had been with her all along, but her intuition told her that Colby had tampered with it somehow. "Spill it."

Hearing Sophie's final ultimatum, Colby had no choice but to come clean. "Adler and Jenna installed a chip in your phone, automatically blocking all calls and messages from James."

"And you didn't tell me?"

"I... forgot." Colby looked innocently guilty.

Sophie massaged her temples. This indeed sounded like something Adler and Jenna would do.

After the last incident, Adler and Jenna seemed determined to use any means necessary to stop James from harassing her.

"I understand. I'll call James back now."

Sophie took out her phone and was about to dial James' number when she caught Colby's pitiful gaze. Helplessly, she made the call in front of Colby and then switched to speakerphone.
