Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 863



James kept quiet. He knew Caelum was as cunning as a fox and always deep in thought, but he hadn't expected such sharp reasoning.

When James did not respond, Caelum didn't beat around the bush. "If you won't talk, you might as well leave. I'll handle the Pollard family's issues on my own. But if you spill our secrets, not only will the Pollard family be ruined, but your family won't have it easy either."

James frowned, and Caelum stepped closer. "Listen, Burke boy. I'm giving you a chance here. I'm helping you, not the other way around."

Noticing the knowing smile in Caelum's eyes, James decided not to push further. "I want to dig into the secrets of Devonport, the mysteries surrounding the four major families, and... the car accident involving Sophie's parents."

The smile instantly vanished from Caelum's face.

James continued, "I believe you're also curious about these things, that Kiran's death wasn't an accident."

Angelo's brow furrowed upon hearing this. The fact that Kiran's death was no accident was known only to him and his father, aside from James.

Angelo stood up. "You know? How did you find out?"

"That's not your concern. I have my ways."

"You..."

"Enough," Caetum interrupted firmly. "I'll help you out. The fact you know Kiran's death wasn't an accident tells me you're pretty clued in. The person feeding you this info-could it be Gordon, the head of the

Aldridge family in Deould

Caelum hit the nail on the head. James replied, "Who told me isn't important. What matters is we have a common enemy. You're willing to marry off your daughter to win over the Mintons, probably to figure out who's been pulling their strings."Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Odie's show of bravado wasn't due

to the legacy built by the previous generation of the Mintons. Odie was all bark and no bite. The Minton family had long lost its former glory, holding onto just a shred of its past influence. Otherwise, Odie wouldn't be, so keen to marry into the overseas Pollard family for support and benefits.

"You are really smart. Pity you aren't my grandson." Caelum took a good look at James. "Alright, I'm in. You'll stay here and tutor Angelo while I handle your grandmother's situation." "Thank you."

Caelum nodded.

Angelo couldn't hide his frustration, licking his wisdom tooth in annoyance. His dad had sent him to Devonport to put on a show, warning him not to genuinely mess with the Costello family or let anyone know the real deal. At the time, he was puzzled, but now he got it. Athe major families in Devonport were old friends. Caelum showed Rindness to someone else's grandson while giving his own son no respect. How humiliating to need a tutor at his age! Didn't his pride matter?

Angelo stood up, walked over to James, and said seriously, "Get ready if you're going to tutor me." "Being my student will be tougher than you think. I believe it's you who needs to be prepared." Ignoring Angelo's comment, James turned and left the grand doors of the Pollard family's study.
