Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Inside the Burke Estate.

Sophie sat by the bedroom window, staring out at the view. She'd been there for a good hour.

Colby walked in, noticing Sophie lost in thought, and wrapped his arms around her from behind.

"Thinking about James?" he whispered.

Sophie snapped back to reality and playfully poked Colby's head. "James? No way! I'm thinking about the mastermind behind all this!"

"Isn't that just another way of thinking about James?" Colby teased, a hint of jealousy barely detectable in his voice.

"I can think without mixing personal feelings!" Sophie leaned back into Colby's embrace. "Colby, do you think the person behind this is someone we know?"

"I don't know," he replied.

"They know us so well, and they've never slipped up. No one's ever seen them, not even their own people."

"Overthinking won't help," Colby said, holding her tighter. "I won't let them hurt you."

Suddenly, a loud commotion erupted outside.

"I saw him go into Sophie's room! And Timothy was nowhere to be seen all day! It had to be him!"

"I didn't! It wasn't me!"

"It was you! Definitely you!"

Sophie and Colby exchanged glances and headed downstairs.

They found Angelo confronting Timothy, the earlier commotion having knocked over some items on the table.

"Mr. Angelo, what's going on here?" Sophie called from the second floor.

"It's him! Timothy's the culprit!" Angelo pointed at Timothy. "Yesterday, he sneaked into your

room. I saw it with my own eyes et

And this morning, when Odie got

attacked, he wasn't home! It must have been him!"

Timothy looked up calmly. "Ms. Sophie, it wasn't me."

"You say it wasn't you? Where's the proof? I saw you sneaking out of Burke Estate alone today. I couldn't possibly be mistaken!"

Sandy, munching on chips nonchalantly, chimed in, "Bro, why are you so obsessed with a nanny?"

"I find him suspicious! With his

pretty boy looks, opting to be a nanny in Devonport instead of

something else, he's definitely up to something!" Angelo insisted

OUMS

The noise drew Odie out of his room, now everyone's eyes were on Timothy.

Adler said, "We tested this guy before, didn't we say he was clean?"

Jenna added, "People can be deceptive. If what Mr. Angelo said is true, then Timothy, you've been fooling us all along." Timothy stood alone, opposed by everyone.

Odie pulled out a small knife and

walked downstairs, his pale face et

showing a hint of ferocity. "Want to know if it's true or false? One stab will tell us." This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Hey, hey, hey! That's not cool! No knives at Burke Estate!" Adler quickly intervened.

The ruckus grew louder, even reaching Gordon in his study.

Rick asked, "Sir, it's getting pretty intense downstairs. Should we check it out?"

Gordon, playing chess alone, replied indifferently, "Let them be."
