"At all costs. I just want Sophie!" James' expression darkened, "Since Colby wants to back Sophie, then I'll have to go toe-to-toe with the Costello family in a fight to the end."

Sophie was his and his alone. He would not allow anyone else to touch her. Especially not Colby!

In the Russell family, as Colby's people gradually withdrew, Jessica, drenched in sweat from fear, patted her chest and said, "That scared me to death, how can those people be so rude! Sophie, if you ask me, you should have a proper talk with James. What if he doesn't give up?"

"This matter doesn't require your worry, Jessica." Sophie's demeanor was calm as she pulled Colby along, saying, "Come upstairs with me."

The usually proud Colby obediently followed behind Sophie, like a big wolfhound. Seeing this, Perry thoughtfully said, "Is Colby dating Sophie?"

"Are you crazy?" Jessica exclaimed. "Do you know who Colby is? How could he possibly fall for Sophie? Sophie just divorced"

"So what if she's a divorcee? Aren't you and I both in our second marriage?"

"That's different."

Jessica and Perry started arguing downstairs.

Upstairs, Sophie pulled Colby into the room, closing the door behind her, and asked, "Why are you here?"

If she remembered correctly, she hadn't notified Colby to come over to the Russell family today.

"Those files on Nichole, you must have deliberately leaked them to James, right?"

It was a simple tactic, but coming from Colby, it sounded almost like he's jealous.

Sophie didn't bother to argue, since the facts were clear. Now that she had uncovered that information early on, naturally, she had to use it to let James find out sooner and send Nichole to jail sooner. Colby said in a low voice, "Given James' character, he would deal with Nichole's trouble immediately and then come looking for you."

"So you brought people over?" Sophie frowned slightly, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

Colby pondered for a moment, "Adler said, making an entrance as the hero saving the damsel in distress would look cooler."

"What exactly has been teaching you..."

Sophie was about to open the door to let Colby go, but he reached out and grasped her arm.

In the dimly lit room, Colby pressed her against the wall, his voice carrying a hint of petulance, "Who is the person who will stand by your side in the future?"

Sophie avoided his gaze, "I didn't say who it was just now."

"No matter who it is, if it's not me, I will consider them a villain."

"That's just being unreasonable."

"I've never been a good person." Colby's eyes sparkled with mirth, "Because I've decided you are my future wife."

Sophie pushed Colby away, saying, "In your dreams."

Sophie opened the door and saw Perry standing outside. Perry clearly felt awkward, but he tried to appear calm as he said to Sophie, "Sophie, come here, I have something to say to you." "Alright, Uncle Perry."

Sophie walked out with Perry, who glanced at Colby still inside Sophie's room, and asked quietly, "Sophie, tell me the truth, are you and Colby..."

Sophie interrupted, "Uncle Perry, we're not what you think."
