Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 87

After finishing her statement, Sophie went to fetch the blue cheese rolls, fearing that Jenna might get mad at Colby for his antics.

Jenna was livid. If she ever found out who had given Colby this ridiculous idea, she vowed to make them pay!

"Sophie, please don't get it wrong. Colby isn't used to dealing with girls, so he doesn't know how to charm them. This idea definitely wasn't his!"

"I know."

Colby wouldn't randomly think of giving her a blue cheese rolls.

Jenna was puzzled. "How do you know?"

"Just think about it for a second, and it's obvious. It had to be Adler's idea."

With Sophie's hint, Jenna suddenly got it.

Of course, who else but Adler could come up with such a harebrained scheme?

Thinking this, Jenna could hardly contain her fury. "Just wait. I'm going to confront him right now!"

Sophie couldn't stop Jenna, who stormed out like a whirlwind, still in her pajamas and slippers. Sophie was about to follow when Jenna knocked directly on the next-door neighbor's door. "Adler! Come out! Adler!"

Jenna's voice was so loud that Adler eventually opened the door, scratching his messy hair, and asked, "Who's making all this noise so early in the morning? Can't a person get some sleep around here?" Adler opened the door, saw Jenna, and was momentarily stunned. He thought he was seeing things, so he closed the door and opened it again to make sure it was really Jenna outside. Stuttering, Adler asked "Wh-what are you doing here?"

Jenna grabbed Adler's ear and said, "So, you're teaching my brother how to flirt, huh? Let me tell you, if my future sister-in-law gets scared off, you're going to face my wrath!"

"Adler, perhaps you'd like to explain exactly what's going on here?" Sophie leaned against the wall, arms crossed, watching Adler.

Adler glanced at Jenna and then at Sophie, swallowing nervously. Facing these two so early in the morning was like dealing with two fierce goddesses-was this the end for him?

Adler hurriedly invited Sophie and Jenna inside. Adler's place was obviously new. He had likely just moved in recently.

"Please, have a seat." Adler was all bows and nods, the mighty CEO acting like a mere servant in front of these two women.

Jenna felt a bit guilty and annoyed for having impulsively revealed where Adler lived.

Adler sat across from Sophie, cleared his throat, and said, "Well, the thing is, my old place was far from Eastwood College, and it wasn't convenient for me to travel far for the occasional classes I teach, right? So when Colby asked me to buy your house, I also got one for myself."

Sophie raised an eyebrow, clearly not buying Adler's explanation. "And why didn't you mention this before?"

"I thought it wasn't necessary to bring it up, you know?" After saying this, Adler desperately tried to signal Jenna with his eyes.

Jenna caught on and sided with Adler, telling Sophie, "Exactly, that's the point. You know Adler. Asking him to wake up early is out of the question. This has nothing to do with Colby, really!"

Hearing Jenna's words, Adler covered his eyes, too embarrassed to look. Jenna's words only made it harder to explain!

"So, Colby sent you here to keep an eye on me?"

"No, no, no! That's not it at all. How could my brother want to spy on you? He was just worried about you living here alone, so he asked Adler to move in. It's both convenient and ensures someone is looking after you!"

Adler facepalmed, "Jenna, you might just ruin this for your cousin."
