Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 1323

Angelo and Sandy nodded like a couple of eager little birds, promising, "We swear! We won't tell a soul!"

With that assurance, Rick finally stepped aside, letting Angelo and Sandy make their quick escape, like they were running from a fire.

Jenna stayed put, frowning as she asked, "Rick, about that kidnapping from years ago, the little girl I saw in the hospital—that was Sophie, wasn't it?"

"Ms. Jenna, it's not as tangled as you think. All you need to know is that Mr. Gordon is doing everything for Ms. Sophie's well-being."

Rick left the room, leaving Jenna with her thoughts. Adler noticed her troubled look and chimed in, "Don't worry. Mr. Gordon's a sharp guy; he wouldn't miss a beat. Come on, lighten up."

"It's just... I feel guilty about keeping Sophie in the dark."

"Let's trust Mr. Gordon's judgment," Adler suggested. "He's looking out for Ms. Sophie, and we shouldn't rock the boat. What if meddling makes things worse for her?"

Jenna nodded, a bit reluctantly. "Alright, just this once. But if Sophie ever presses me..."

"Even if she does, you can't spill the beans."

Colby's voice came from outside, catching them off guard. Jenna turned to see Colby had quietly entered.

"Colby? When did you get back?"

Jenna frowned, "Do you even know what happened yesterday? Sophie's got a raging fever now!"

Colby's eyes narrowed at the news, but he quickly said, "Keep it under wraps."

"What’s the deal?" Jenna demanded. "You owe us some answers! How can you keep Sophie in the dark too?"

"You know what went down with that kidnapping; those memories could really hurt her."
