Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Reminded by Jenna, Sophie suddenly remembered the ring she had sneaked out from Bea's old chest. At the time, she knew it was valuable but hadn't given it much thought. Now, looking back, there might be more to it.

Jenna said, "That ring is really expensive. It could be a family heirloom from the Aldridge family. Sophie, you should ask Harold where he got it."

Sophie shook her head gently and said, "I'd love to, but all of Harold's accounts have been deactivated. No one can get in touch with him now." Except... Gordon.

Thinking of Gordon made Sophie's brow furrow. She hadn't opened the wedding gift he left, and he didn't stay for a drink either.

"Wait, didn't Mr. Gordon leave a gift? Where is it?"Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

Jenna glanced at Adler and Angelo, who were in charge of the gifts. Angelo pointed to a nearby document bag and said, "All the gifts are in here. I thought it was someone's dowry list!"

"What do you mean? Did you look through it?"

"No, but it's a thick stack of papers. I could tell just by touching it!"

"..."

Angelo handed the bag to Sophie. She felt it, and indeed, it was all paper inside. Opening the bag, Sophie found a thick stack of contracts, including a share transfer agreement, a contract from Devonport Insurance Company, and at the very bottom, a set of keys.

Jenna exclaimed, "I know this! That insurance company is for storing valuables for the wealthy. Our family has stuff there too, and we pay at least a million in storage fees every year. It's as secure as Fort Knox."

Adler, looking at the contracts, was nearly speechless. "Oh my God, the Aldridge family's land deeds, several of their most profitable subsidiaries, project transfer agreements, even property deeds?! What's Mr. Gordon doing? Transferring assets?"

Sandy was equally shocked. "How much money is that?"

"How much? It's beyond what you can imagine!"

Jenna hadn't expected Gordon to go this big. The fest was one thing, but the Aldridge Global share transfer agreement clearly stated that tem percent of Aldridge Global shares were being transferred to Sophie. Ten percent of Aldridge Global was huge.

"This... is too valuable. I can't accept it."

Sophie quickly put everything back into the bag. Colby, sitting nearby furrowed his brow and fell into

silence.

"Exactly, it's too valuable! If people find out, who knows what they'd think."

Jenna was also a bit rattled by the extravagant gift. Such a grand gesture could give someone a heart attack!

"Keep it."

Colby's sudden comment made everyone freeze.

"Since he gave it, knowing his character, he won't take it back."

"That makes sense... There's no tradition of returning a gift once given," Adler said. "Sophie, you need to thank Mr. Gordon properly when you get a chance. And if Mr. Gordon ever gets married, we can favor!"

"Knock it off! You're always full of bright ideas!"

Jenna gave Adler a playful slap.
