Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 109

Sophie casually sipped her water, pretending nothing was amiss, but her phone suddenly buzzed with a call from Jenna.

She answered, and Jenna's voice came through urgently, "Sophie! Is James anywhere near you?"

"What's up?"

"That jerk! He's made a mess of my company these last few days! I need to give him a piece of my mind!"

"What are you talking about?" Sophie frowned, "James targeted your company?"

Sophie remembered that three days ago, when she returned to the Burke family estate, Jenna had mentioned she had to rush back to the company because of an emergency. She had never imagined that James would actually sabotage Jenna's company over Nichole.

"That guy is cunning. At first, I thought it was a competitor's doing, but over the last few days, several investors have pulled out. I couldn't keep any of them at the networking dinners, and finally, after cornering one and pressing him, he spilled that James had warned them—anyone investing in the Dennis family was opposing him!"

Jenna's anger grew as she spoke, while Sophie's expression darkened. She knew James was ruthless, but she hadn't realized he would go to such lengths for Nichole.

Everyone knew Jenna was Lennon's granddaughter. Crossing the Dennis family was tantamount to offending Lennon; James should have known better than to target Jenna.

"Don't worry, leave it to me," Sophie reassured her.

After hanging up, Sophie hadn't initially planned to get involved with James and Nichole, but now it seemed she had been too lenient. James had no intention of sparing Jenna.

If James chose not to be merciful, neither would she.

Moments later, Sophie stood up and walked out of the restaurant.

"Enough, Sophie!" James frowned deeply. "Nichole was in a car accident and was thrown out while still injured. Ultimately, it's all your fault. Why are you still being so harsh?"

"Me, harsh?" Sophie scoffed. "When you targeted the Dennis family, you didn't think you were being harsh then!"

James seemed surprised that Sophie knew about his actions so quickly, but he soon responded coldly, "You know there will be consequences. I'm merely teaching a lesson."

"Nichole got hit by a car. How can you blame Jenna for that? She disrupted the Dennis estate opening, subtly slandering me in public, and I haven't even settled scores with her yet. But you're already defending her. You two really are birds of a feather. Utterly nauseating!"

James' face darkened, and the tear-streaked Nichole said, "Sophie, I don't understand why you're saying this. I genuinely wanted to apologize to Ms. Jenna, but she accused me without reason of being Mr. Burke's other woman. Our relationship has always been innocent!"

"Oh, innocent? Crying in his arms, refusing to leave the Burke family home—that's your definition of innocent?"
