Ricardo, instead of managing your business empire in Bloomsbury, youe all you want?


    way to Devonport to trouble us. What exactly do


    Jenna was well aware of Bloomsbury’s Ricardo, but her own reputation in Bloomsbury was also


    significant


    Ricardo responded with a calm demeanor, “I haven’t troubled you, Ms. Jenna, I was merely teaching


    Sophie a lesson, and I believe I did Just that”


    With Russell Enterprises in Devonport now bankrupt, it wasmon for people in their social circle to


    demean members of the Russell family Jenna’s face soured as she said, “Are you openly dering war


    against us?”


    “Indeed, what about it?” Ricardo’s stance was firm


    Jenna scoffed, “I think you’ve been a tyrant in Bloomsbury for too many years, Mr. Cloude. You do not


    realize that Devonport has its own rules. Even if Russel Enterprises is bankrupt, Colby and I are around


    to protect her! The entire Tredgold family will stand behind her. Mr. Cloude, you may have helped


    Nichole harm Sophie today, but tomorrow, you might find it difficult to leave Devonport’s gates.”


    “Are you threatening Ricardo?” With Ricardo backing her, Nichole spoke without any reservations,


    “Jenna, what does Sophie have to do with you? Why do you protect her so fiercely? She’s dragging her


    feet on divorcing James while stringing along your cousin. You should despise her!


    “Shut your foul mouth!”


    Jenna’s temper red uncontrobly. Sophie, fearing Jenna would make enemies with the Cloude


    family, quickly interjected, “Ms. Nichole, please don’t get angry. It’s not good for the baby.”


    Thisment shifted everyone’s attention to Nichole’s stomach. The news of Nichole carrying James‘


    child was known nationwide


    Nichole clung tighter to Ricardo’s am. “Sophie, stop trying to cause a nft. I’ve already


    informed Mr. Cloude about the pregnancy, and he said that he would treat my child as his own!”


    “Oh, just a while ago, you were head over heels in love with James, treating the position of Mrs. Burke


    as the most important thing. Have you forgotten your old love now that you have a new love?” Jenna


    mocked Ricardo, “Mr. Cloude, you’re quite the savior for taking over just like that. I wonder what you


    see in Nichole because she is nothing but a liar. Mr Cloude, your taste is indeed unique.”


    Ricardo’s brow furrowed slightly, and then, one of his men immediately pped Sophie across the


    face, causing her right cheek to swell up significantly.


    Jenna eximed, “Ricardol”


    “I said, even if I cannot touch you. Ms. Jenna, I can still deal with Sophie.”


    “You!”

    Blood trickled from theer of Sophie’s mouth, and Nichole found the sight incredibly satisfying


    In the past, Sophie had always looked down on her, but now she could finally step over Sophie!


    “Rowena, let’s go.”


    Ricardo took Nichole’s hand, and the two of them left the restaurant, followed by the Cloude family’s


    bodyguards.


    Once they were gone, Jenna immediately checked Sophie’s injuries. “Let me see, how bad is it?”


    Sophie shook her head. “It’s just a bit of ringing in my ears, but it’ll be fine soon.”


    “That damned Nichole! How did she end up with Ricardo? What does Ricardo see in someone like


    Nichole? His taste couldn’t be


    worsel‘


    “Perhaps Ricardo is protecting Nichole because it has something to do with the Freeman family”


    Jenna was puzzled, “The Freeman family? What does this have to do with the Freeman family?”


    In the hospital. Jenna had Sophie’s facial injuries treated. Adler followed Jenna’s instructions and


    uncovered the rtionship between Devonport’s Freeman family and Bloomsbury’s Cloude family.
