Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 117

Colby watched Sophie emerge in her outfit and was instantly reminded of the first time he saw her at the auction. She seemed to suit such colors; only she could wear such a vibrant dress without seeming vulgar, instead exuding nobility and elegance.

Jenna couldn't help but comment, “Colby really has great taste. That dress looks amazing on you, Sophie.”

Sophie smiled lightly.

Colby said, “Actually, it doesn’t really matter whether we attend the dinner or not. Do you have some plans?”

Sophie made a shushing gesture. “It’s a secret.”

Attendance at the Aldridge family’s dinner was highly exclusive, open only to the wealthiest and most prestigious entrepreneurs in Devonport.

Dressed in a white gown, Nichole sat nervously in James' car. She often accompanied James to various social gatherings, but they were trivial compared to the Aldridge family’s dinner. The Aldridge family held a status in Devonport that matched that of James.

Nichole glanced at James sitting beside her, feeling nervous and excited about attending such an event with him.

“James, are you sure it’s okay not to have Sophie accompany you?” Nichole whispered, her voice tinged with uncertainty.

Mentioning Sophie made James frown, his impatience growing. It wasn't that he hadn't called Sophie. She just didn’t even answer his calls today. “You don’t want to come?”

“Of course not!” Nichole’s cheeks flushed as she said, “I’m just worried about people gossiping about our relationship.”

James didn’t respond. He actually hoped that more rumors about him would circulate. He even wanted to see Sophie’s reaction when she heard them.
