Chapter 338 I’m Kelly, Colby
Two days were left until Kingston’s trial. Colby suddenly received a video of Lina getting abducted. She looked worse for wear, and she was crying in the video.
“Colby, show this video to Abigail and make her settle things with Kingston out of court, and wife goes free, or she dies. And don’t tell Sean about it, or I’ll kill her right away.” The voice sounded robotic and eerie.

Colby wasn’t scared even after seeing the video. He had seen a lot of stuff in his younger years. Though he spent most of his time playing cards, he was still a sharp man. Lina’s fear didn’t seem. fake. He analyzed the whole thing and then remembered how Joan had been buttering up Lina lately. She must be involved in this. They’re just trying to make sure that Kingston goes free. One, they want to strain the relationship between us and the Quinns. That way, Joan will have no more threats, and using Kingston’s friendship with Sean, they can marry her into our family. That’s why the Palmer siblings ruined Sean’s marriage.
Tye forwarded the video, but I am not interested in this matter. I have some games to play. If you don’t have anything better to say, don’t text me. Then, Colby went to his friend’s house. That woman wouldn’t listen to me. Now look at what she got herself into. Colby came out into the courtyard and was texting his friend, but then a girl spoke, breaking his train of thought.
“Colby.”
It was an unfamiliar voice. Colby raised his head and saw a girl in expensive clothes standing nearby, looking at him. The girl had long, lustrous hair and looked nice and quiet.
“Who are you?” Colby didn’t know this girl.
“Call me Kelly, Colby. I’m Abigail’s friend. My brother is friends with her. We got a video, and it’s about Sean’s grandmother. My brother asked me to come here and talk to you.” Kelly approached Colby, looking polite.
Colby frowned. Did everyone get that video besides Sean?
Kelly took her phone out and showed him the video. It was similar to the one he got.
“I was going to get someone to settle this. You don’t have to talk to me. I have my own way to settle this.” Colby didn’t trust the woman right away. All she had was a video, and she claimed that she was Abigail’s friend. If he had trusted her just like that, he wouldn’t have been able to survive for this long.
“Colby, I’m here to tell you that my brother and I can settle this without straining your and the Quinns relationship,” said Kelly gently.
Colby looked at her, turning solemn. “Even if Abigail’s involved in this, the one who was kidnapped is our family member. I don’t know you or your brother. Why should I accept your

help? Don’t do things that’s out of your league, girl.”
“We came from Capitalis. We’ve been following the Palmer siblings’ case for a long time now. When Kingston abducted Analise, my brother helped out too. We’d love nothing more than for Kingston to be put behind bars and stop harming people. You’d like to see that happen too, don’t you?” said Kelly politely but adamantly.
Colby warmed up a little the moment Kelly said her brother saved Abigail’s grandmother. “Let’s go, then. I’ve asked to meet up with someone for this. Let’s see what kind of clues you two can give us.” Colby went to his friend’s house..
Kelly smiled and went with him.
“Are you still not doing anything, sir?” Xavien showed the video they intercepted to Sean, but Sean didn’t say anything.
Sean asked, “Aside from my grandpa and Analise, no one got this video?”
“Not exactly. Someone else hijacked the network and intercepted the video like I did. I’m looking into it,” Xavien replied.
“Find out who it is as soon as possible. Joan hasn’t made any move for now. We wait,” said Sean before looking away. Even though he hated his grandmother for turning his marriage upside down, he couldn’t bear to see her suffer. Kingston’s friend is smart. They went after the grandparents. If they bypa*s me and have gramps and Analise talk to Abigail, they can get her to settle out of court with Kingston.
No matter how tough Abigail was or how much she hated Kingston for abducting Analise, she would relent the moment Colby and Analise talked to her. Colby had always been nice to her and always took her side. Analise already felt guilty because Colby agreed to marry Abigail and Sean together, so she would ask Abigail to settle out of court. That way, they can get what they want by bypa*sing me, but they underestimated Grandpa. He made a successful business in the eighties. He has seen a lot of horrors in his life.
