Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 313

Calla glanced at Sophie, a hint of smugness in her eyes.

Sophie couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. It seemed that Bea had agreed to some terms with Calla. With that confident look on Calla's face, it wouldn't be long before she realized her dreams and became Mrs. Burke.

"Stop right there."

Colby, out of the blue, halted Bea in her tracks. Bea, puzzled, turned around and looked at Colby with disdain, "What? You are just a bastard of the Costello family. Think you can lecture me?" "You're right."

Colby's seemingly casual words stirred a storm in Sophie's heart. Bea was an elder, a well-respected figure in Devonport.

This was a different kind of war from the one men fought in the business world. This was their women's affair, yet Colby was still willing to stand up for her.

Bea glanced at Colby and then at Sophie, saying, "Oh, I see now, birds of a feather flock together. So, Sophie, you've betrayed James, haven't you? Climbing up the social ladder by getting close to Colby, is that it? No wonder you're so keen on divorce. You think you've caught a bigger fish."

"Bea, I respect you as my elder, which is why I've always given you some leeway, but don't push it. If you go too far, I won't hold back."

In her past life, Sophie had given her all to Bea, only to end up with nothing.

The Burke family were inherently cold.

She had previously refrained from confronting Bea out of respect for her age, but that didn't mean Bea could insult her at will.

"I'd like to see how you plan to deal with me. Do you think the Burke family is easy to mess with? If you touch me, James will never let you off." After saying this, Bea dragged Calla towards the police station. Sophie turned her head towards Colby, saying, "You weren't really planning on getting physical, were you?"

"Hit an old person?"

Colby frowned, saying, "Never have, but there's a first time for everything."

"Are you serious?"

"Don't worry. Physical violence is the lowest form of retaliation." Colby gently stroked Sophie's head, saying, "Since she insulted you, I'll make sure she witnesses her own downfall. She'll regret everything she's done tonight."

"Mr. Colby, Ms. Sophie, shall we go in?" A police officer quietly spoke up.

Sophie nodded, and Colby, with his arm around her, walked in.

Inside, Bea was acting the part of an elder, coldly stating, "I'll be right here waiting for your chief to come."

"We don't want to make things difficult, but our chief really is busy today and can't make it."

"Tell him Bea Burke is here. He should come to see me."

"Why can't you understand?" The police officer looked impatient.

At that moment, Sophie and Colby walked in, and the people around them, upon seeing Colby, approached him, "Mr. Colby, Ms. Sophie, you're finally here. Please come this way." The change in attitude was stark.

Bea's face fell immediately, "I told you to call your chief. Can't you understand? Hurry up and fetch him."

"And I've told you, the chief is busy and can't come."
