Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

On the other end of the phone, Tricia hesitated for a moment: "Ms. Sophie, are you sure about this? They're still a patient." "Yes, just do as I say."

"...Yes."

Before the two people inside the house could celebrate, their phones suddenly started buzzing with notifications.

At first, they were all smiles, thinking of finding something to do.

But soon, the buzzing became an incessant stream of alerts, and their expressions gradually turned rigid.

Their phones were flooded with hundreds of documents, including contracts from business partners, renewal contracts from advertisers, breach of contract documents from when business had stalled recently, financial statements, departmental summaries, staff layoff plans, and investigative files on spies The Silent Shadows had in various companies.

Just seeing the names of these files was enough to overwhelm Jenna. She glanced at Sophie, who had walked into the room, and asked, "All of these...?"

"Yes, all of them."

Sophie said, "Because of The Silent Shadows' crackdown on everyone recently, each company is facing similar situations. Colby has been so busy that he has to attend meetings at Costello Corporation before dawn every day, hiring elites from various universities to help everyone reduce the workload. It's cost tens of millions so far. Jenna, the Dennis family doesn't seem to be in a good place either. You've got to hang in there."

"Sophie!"

Jenna was exasperated.

Sophie simply covered her ears and turned to walk into the next room, Adler's bedroom.novelbin

Adler was already holding his phone up to Sophie, looking serious as he said, "Sophie, I was out of line earlier. You've really worked hard these past three days. I think my injury is quite severe, and I might need another month or two to recover. I'm entrusting the Tredgold family affairs to Ms. Sophie for this time!"

"Wishful thinking."

Sophie said, "You asked for this.

17.

Since we're short on hands, handle what you can, and toss what you can't to me. By the way, every day you delay might cost you millions. The Tredgold family's fortune isn't that large to begin with, most of it is under The Silent Shadows name..."

"My dad was the boss of The Silent Shadows, I'm his son. Now that my dad's gone, shouldn't The Silent Shadows' legacy fall into myo hands?"

Adler's eyes sparkled, as if he was about to become a wealthy heir the next second.

Sophie gave Adler a slight smile and said, "Unfortunately, Mr. Adler, that might not be the case." "Why?!"

Adler was stunned.

Sophie explained, "The illicit gains The Silent Shadows amassed over the years were all used by your mad scientist of a father for his experiments. After the last explosion and collapse in the valley, half the mountain was gone, along with whatever was inside and the results of those experiments. And those illicit gains? Ms. May has donated them all. So..."

"My mom... such a saint."

Adler's expression was a mix of laughter and tears.

All that money, just donated?

His mom might have had her fill of the wealthy life, but he still needed money for a future wedding!

Sophie walked out of the room, and a maid came upstairs, saying, "Ms. Sophie, Mr. Schuldt is here, saying you asked him to come." "Tell Officer Derick to wait in the living room for a moment."

"Alright."

Sophie walked downstairs, where Mr. Schuldt was sitting on the sofa in the living room, looking somewhat uneasy.
