Revenge is best served cold novel Chapter 1648

The members of The Silent Shadows instantly vanished into the mist, leaving only the man who had been leading them to remove his mask.

James frowned.

This was all he could do now.

Meanwhile, Sophie and Colby were retreating towards the outside of the valley.

During their conversation with that man, Sophie had noticed something was off with his leg, and the man had also tapped his own leg lightly with his fingers, as if hinting at something.

So, Sophie was even more convinced the man they had been talking to was James.

James had given them a false proposition.

First, Jenna was inside.

Second, as long as they could find Jenna, the boss would meet with them.

Third, once terms were agreed upon, the boss would let them leave.

These points seemed reasonable, but they made no sense at all.

They had always been the passive party, with the active party being the boss of The Silent Shadows. They had done so much just to actively meet with the boss. If the boss truly wanted to meet them, there was no need to go through the trouble of taking Jenna.

Even if the boss had taken Jenna, it was surely to exchange Jenna for the gemstone they had.

How could there possibly be negotiations?

If The Silent Shadows truly had taken Jenna, then they currently had no leverage to negotiate with The Silent Shadows.

Without any leverage to negotiate, how could the boss possibly let them leave?
