Chapter 193
Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
âI...â At that moment, Jessica was unable to utter a single word.
Perry realized something was wrong and turned to Jessica. âWhen I asked you earlier, you were stuttering! Now explain to me why you were so desperate to have your brother attend the family dinner. What exactly were you two plotting?!â
âHoney, listen to me. Itâs not what you think.â Jessica tried to explain, but Perry shook off her hand, saying, âAre you two planning something against Sophie again? Speak up!â
âHoney, this has nothing to do with me! I really donât know anything!â Jessica waved her hands frantically in fear.
Sam, who was on the ground, heard Jessicaâs words and quickly spoke up, âJessica! Please beg your husband to save me! I donât want to be taken away! Help me!â
âShut your mouth! This is all because of your lust. What does it have to do with me!â
Jessicaâs words made it clear to Perry what was happening.
âHow could you?!â
Perry was furious, and Jessica quickly said, âHoney! Listen to me. Let me explain!â
At that moment, Sophie and Jenna had also entered the Russell family estate, watching the chaos. Colbyâs men were still searching the place.
Jessica spotted Sophie, and it made her even more uneasy.
When Perry saw Sophie, he walked up to her and said to Jessica, âExplain yourself in front of Sophie! Give me an explanation!â
Jessica was scared, and she hurriedly pointed at Sam kneeling on the ground, saying, âMy brother has been divorced twice already, and itâs hard for him to find a wife. So, I thought, since Sophie and James are also getting a divorce, she and Sam could get together. Wouldnât that be keeping it all in the family?â
Jessica was cowering but continued, âBesides, once Sophie is divorced, I fear no one else will want her after that. She and my brother will be well matched...â
âUgh!â Jenna angrily exclaimed, âWell matched? I canât believe you have the nerve to say that! Arenât you ashamed?â
Jessicaâs face turned bright red, yet she shamelessly defended herself, âI-I was just thinking about Sophie's marriage prospects. This was all consensual, so why did you cause a scene and embarrass our own family?â

ï¤Chapter 784 Whispers of Destiny: His Belated Love âConsensual?â Sophie scoffed, âI didnât know drugging me and locking me in a room counted as consensual!â
âWhat?â Perry was shocked, âSophie, is this true?â
âUncle Perry, I would never falsely accuse her. She took my phone and locked me in the room. If I hadnât threatened to hurt myself, Jessica and Samâs scheme would have likely succeeded by now.â
Jessica angrily retorted, âYou're lying! What evidence do you have? You just got caught and now wants to pin it on us!â
At that moment, a bodyguardâs voice suddenly rang out nearby, âSir! Found it!â
The bodyguard handed over Sophieâs phone and a small vial of pills to Colby.
Jessicaâs face paled. She had ordered those items to be thrown away! How could they still have been found?
Then, the maid who had previously led Sophie upstairs was brought forward, and Jessicaâs face lost all its earlier confidence.
Colby dropped the vial on the ground and coldly said, âYou wanted evidence? Hereâs your evidence!â
The veins on Perryâs forehead bulged. âDid you really do this?â
âHoney! This was all my brotherâs idea. It has nothing to do with me!â
âJessica! How can you deny your own words? You were the one who said Ms. Sophie was beautiful and suggested I go after her! Now youâre trying to throw me under the bus? How could you do this to me?â
In their circle, everyone knew what crossing Colby meant, and Sam was not ready to be the scapegoat!
