Revenge is best served cold

Chapter 1479

Sophie knew this day was bound to roll around eventually, it was just a matter of time. Colby's words were really just to reassure himself more than anything. If that day did come and they couldn't do anything about it, they'd be left vulnerable, at the mercy of others.

Colby clasped Sophie's hand, their fingers intertwining as if he was passing some of his strength to her. "Even if the future's uncertain, I'll be right there with you. No need to worry."

"I know, no matter what comes our way, you'll always be by my side."

"The door was open, so I thought I'd wait in here," William said, trying to play it off. Sophie was taken aback. "How did you get in?"

"Well, we're overseas, right? This is kind of my turf. Everyone here knows me, so they let me in, especially since it's your check-up day. Colby and I had set a time, so they didn't stop me."
