Chapter 211novelbin

He knew Nichole was putting on a show for Sophie and the staff on purpose earlier. He had alreadywarned Nichole that there would be no further interactions between them, and his cooperation wasmerely to see Sophie’s reaction.

But as it turned out, Sophie didn’t care about him at all. She did not even show a hint of jealousy.

“James, we had sex. Are you that eager to cut ties with me?”

Nichole knew that James had used her as a tool at the office, but she didn’t care. She had used Jamestoo! They were cut from the same cloth!

James gave Nichole a cold glance and said, “I’m warning you, if you use those underhanded tactics tohurt Sophie, I will not let you off easily.”

Nichole paled, her voice softening as she clutched James‘ hand. “James, Sophie doesn’t even like you!But I truly love you. Didn’t we have a great night together?”

“Enough!”

James shook off Nichole’s hand, his eyes filled with menace. “How dare you bring up that night?Nichole, if you don’t want to be ousted from Palm’s Jewels, I suggest you stop testing my patience.Otherwise, I’ll make sure Eastwood College expels you without a second thought!”

Nichole’s expression turned even uglier, and she didn’t dare to make another move. She knew Jameswould follow through on his threats, perhaps even tenfold.

James turned and left, leaving Nichole deflated and alone. Colt glanced at her and said, “Ms. Nichole,Mr. Burke’s decision not to expose your lies is already a form of mercy. Please recognize your place

and stop dreaming about becoming Mrs. Burke.”

Then, Colt also followed James out.

Nichole clenched her fists tightly.

‘James, you think it’s that easy to cut ties with me? I will not let you have your way! The position of Mrs.Burke can only be mine!‘

Back at Palm’s Jewels, Sophie pulled her hand away from Reece, saying, “He’s gone.”

Reece

Ted lightly. “Who said I was helping you? I was genuinely worried you had a fever.”

ed herself a cup of tea, and Reece said, “But you look so lively, you must be fine.”

Sophie mentioned, “Your time at Palm’s Jewels is almost over, right?”

Sopt.

“I’m leaving tomorrow.” Reece raised an eyebrow. “Missing me already?”

“Don’t flatter yourself. I’m just worried my days won’t be easy once you’re gone.”

Recently, the female staff at Palm’s Jewels had labeled her as a woman who would do anything forsuccess.

Rumors even spread that she was a sugar baby in school and often engaged in questionableprofessions.

She knew these rumors were Nichole’s doing, but she couldn’t be bothered to deal with them.

The issues at S Corporation were enough of a headache already. She didn’t want to waste energy onpetty matters with worthless people.

Reece frowned, “Have they started bullying you?”

“Not yet, but I guess they will once you’re gone.”

The female staff had been cautious around her these past few days because Reece had been comingto the office to film, but once Reece was gone, things might change.

After a moment of silence, Sophie patted Reece’s shoulder seriously. “I’ll handle it. When troublecomes, I’ll face it head–on. I’ll be okay.”
