Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 358

The Aldridge estate was guarded by two rows of people outside, ensuring that Sophie's arrival went unnoticed as she drove straight into the garage.

The mansion boasted high levels of secrecy, especially in this nearly deserted area, making it unlikely for anyone to notice her journey here from the police station. "This way." The butler led Sophie to a room on the second floor.

Sophie remembered that the second floor of the Aldridge family home was generally off-limits. She hadn't expected it to house so many guest rooms.

"Ms. Sophie, if there's anything you dislike, let me know, and I'll have it redecorated."

"No need, I like it very much."

How could she not love it? The room was practically a suite with three bedrooms and a living area.

"Alright, if you need anything, Ms. Sophie, just press the button on the wall, and someone will come to assist you."

"Thank you."

The butler left the room.

Sophie looked around. The decor was upscale and clean, clearly made of the finest materials and latest designs, arranged in an orderly fashion, similar to the style of a high-end hotel.

A faint scent of lavender filled the room, bringing a sense of tranquility and bliss.

Sophie took out her phone and opened her chat with Colby, but hesitated to send a message.

Colby was abroad. It was impossible for him to make it in time. Considering Colby and Gordon's relationship, could Colby have asked Gordon to take care of her?

'Knock knock-'

Someone knocked on the door, prompting Sophie to instinctively put away her phone and say, "Come in."

The bodyguard opened the door, escorting Gordon in.

Gordon, wearing a crisp, clean white shirt, looked somewhat pale. "I hope I'm not disturbing you."

"How could you? I haven't properly thanked you yet. If not for you, I might really be behind bars right now."

Gordon spoke calmly, "I didn't want to disturb your rest, but my team has uncovered some information that I think you would be anxious to know."

"Is it about the billion-dollar discrepancy?"

"Yes."

Gordon's tone was even, yet Sophie could read a hint of unusual emotion in his eyes.

"Does it involve someone from my family?"

Russell Enterprises' accounts were naturally related to the Russell family members. Sophie didn't want to suspect her own family, but the billion-dollar discrepancy in the accounts wasn't an overnight issue. Those she had offended or wanted her downfall couldn't possibly interfere with the Russell family's accounts.

Moreover, Officer Derick said the shortfall in the Russell family's accounts was real. It was not a deliberate fabrication.

"This is for you." Gordon handed a folder to Sophie.

Sophie saw that the cover bore the Aldridge family crest. Opening it, she found a thick stack of papers inside, including promissory notes and IOUS.

The documents were stained with mud and blood, some already yellowing. They were each carefully sealed in clear plastic bags by Gordon's team.

As Sophie flipped through, her alarm grew. A chill spread from her heart.

The signatures and seals on the promissory notes and IOUS belonged to one person.

Perry!

Sophie's voice trembled. "My Uncle Perry?"

Was it Perry?

No, she had never known about any of this.
