Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 622

Nichole was considerate, gentle, and caring, while Sophie, under the daily torment, became increasingly sensitive and suspicious. One day after their marriage, Sophie cooked a feast, hoping to share dinner with him.

When he saw Sophie, who had been burned while cooking, he was touched.

He lost control and had sex with Sophie. That night, he was furious, enraged that Sophie would be the type of despicable woman to drug him!

However, the next day, after sobering up, he realized that Sophie had nothing to do with the drugging.

When he found out it was Bea who had done it, he chose to endure in silence. Yet, after that night, his attitude towards Sophie grew colder. Naturally reticent, he didn’t even know how to face Sophie, whom he had misunderstood.

He watched Sophie live her life alone and didn’t miss the loneliness in her eyes. Whenever Sophie saw him, she would still manage a smile and ask him what he’d like for dinner.

He then realized he had been avoiding their marriage for four years and had never peacefully had a meal with Sophie at the same table.

He had taken Sophie for granted, thinking she was after the Burke family’s wealth and overlooking all the deep affection she had for him.

He took advantage of a moment when Sophie was distracted and left a ring on her bedroom table. He had hoped Sophie would understand his intentions.

Soon, the company was about to purchase a significant piece of land, and Nichole had strong connections to the CEO’s wife of the other company. Due to work, he and Nichole needed some media exposure and even had to attend a social event hosted by the other company.

A cold voice seemingly woke James from a daze. He never imagined such words would come from her mouth.

On the other end of the phone, Nichole stood in front of his office, a faint smile on her face, saying, “James, what happened?”

“Nothing much, just the usual drama of crying, making a scene, and threatening.” He impatiently set the phone aside.

Over the years, especially after becoming pregnant, Sophie had tried to catch James' attention several times, and tested his attitude towards her.

But this time, the drama was a bit too much, and he didn’t take it seriously.
