Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 841

In the conference room, a few shareholders were deep in conversation.

"We only went along with Colby out of respect for Mr. Elwood, but now that he's gone, Colby still acts like he owns the place. Today, we're voting to boot him out!"

"Exactly! How can a kid from the slums be the head of the White family? I was already annoyed when he rebranded the White family as Costello Corporation. Now that he's back, it's the perfect time to settle the score!"

Outside the room, Sophie overheard the shareholders' disdainful remarks about Colby, and it hit her like a punch in the gut.

She had heard all sorts of rumors about Colby-some said he was cold-hearted, others said he was ruthless. Before Colby revealed he was the heir to the Costello family, people painted him as a demon straight out of hell, throwing every nasty label at him.

But once everyone knew Colby was the rightful heir, their tune changed. Over the past year, Sophie hadn't heard anyone question his legitimacy.

She had hoped the worst was over, but apparently, even after clawing his way to the top, these trust-fund babies still looked down on him.
