Chapter 204
After Mr. Donny introduced Nichole, he left, and surprisingly, Alexis, who usually looked down oneveryone, approached Nichole with a burst of praise. “Graduates from prestigious universities really aredifferent. I’ll be counting on you to teach me a thing or two in the
future
Nichole wore a polite smile, but a flash of smugness crossed her eyes.
Sophie couldn’t stand to watch this group of sycophants and was about to leave when Nicholesuddenly called out to her, “Sophie, I didn’t expect to find you interning at this company, too. Would youjoin me for a coffee after work?”
Alexis glanced from Sophie to Nichole and asked, “Do you two know each other?”
Nichole was about to speak, but Sophie beat her to it, saying, “Not really. Then, she turned and left.
A moment of embarrassment appeared on Nichole’s face, but Alexis commented nonchalantly, “She’sjust relying on her pretty face and doesn’t take anyone seriously. I can’t stand women like that!*novelbin
“Don’t be too harsh. Maybe she has her reasons. I remember she had some issues back in school,”Nichole said, then suddenly covered her mouth, pretending to have misspoken. “Oh my, why am I evenbringing this up?”
Alexis, as if having caught a juicy piece of gossip, hurriedly asked, “What happened? Tell me
“I don’t know if it’s true or not, but there were rumors in school that Sophie has a sugar daddy”
“What?” Upon hearing this, Alexis immediately put on a disdainful attitude. “I was wondering why she’sso pretty. Turns out she’s actually in that line of work”
“I’m telling you this because I see you as a good friend. Please, don’t spread it around. Just keep it toyourself.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t say a word and put you in a difficult position, Alexis assured, eager to get onNichole’s good side.
Alexis needed to get closer to Nichole because she was a graduate of Eastwood College and had aconnection to James. Not just anyone could get a personal introduction from Mr. Donny.
When Alexis seemed to believe her, Nichole couldn’t help but smirk.

“I don’t
Cophie was ready to rush to S Corporation, as she had decisions waiting for her to handle thatevening, but Nichole called
d, “Sophie, I need to talk to you. Do you have a moment?”
ophie replied without any intention of giving Nichole the time of day.
Nichole blocked Sophie’s path, saying, “It’s about James. Don’t you want to hear it?”
“I’m not interested. Please, move aside.”
Sophie had always been too lazy to bother with Nichole, but it didn’t mean she would tolerate herforever
Seeing Sophie’s lack of interest, Nichole said, “I slept with James. Did you know that?”
Sophie paused for a moment, then turned around to see Nichole’s triumphant smile. Sophie couldn’thelp but laugh. “Is that supposed to be something to brag about?”
“Of course. Don’t think I don’t know that you and James are nothing but a sham couplé. Since I’malready with James, he’ll divorce you sooner or later to avoid any unpleasantness. Why not justpropose the divorce yourself? It might leave you with some dignity.”
Nichole had completely shed her previously innocent demeanor. Perhaps her true nature was showing.
Sophie watched Nichole, smiling. “If you had the ability to make James divorce me, you wouldn’t behere trying to persuade me. Keep your little schemes to yourself. Even if you did sleep with James, itdoesn’t matter to me. You can’t provoke me.”
Nichole sneered, thinking Sophie was just trying to be stubborn, and said, “We didn’t take anyprecautions that night. If I end up pregnant, you won’t have the choice but to divorce. Why make it hardon yourself?”
“Get your facts straight. I’m not the one who doesn’t want a divorce. You should be saying this toJames*
Sophie glanced at her watch. She really shouldn’t be wasting her time with Nichole here.
