Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 168

James remained silent, which was taken as an acknowledgment that there were no further questions.

Sophie glanced at a slightly guilty-looking Nichole and asked with a smile, "Ms. Nichole, do you have any more questions?"

Regaining her composure, Nichole tried to appear calm despite her inner turmoil, "No, that's all."

"Then we'll need to review the surveillance footage from the hotel. You're welcome to access anything you need," Sophie continued, casting a seemingly casual glance at Nichole, who was trying to hide in James' arms.

Nichole's eyes darted away, and Sophie knew there must be something fishy going on.

Soon, the police had accessed the hotel’s surveillance footage.

The footage first showed Colt escorting Nichole into a room, supposedly to change her clothes, before he shut the door and left.

At this point, Sophie paused the video and asked, "Colt, you brought Ms. Nichole here to change her dress and then left, correct?"

Colt nodded, "Yes, Mr. Burke said Ms. Nichole's dress was unflattering and asked her to change it."

Just as he finished speaking, James seemed to hesitate, wanting to say more.

Sophie frowned at James. Was her dress really that bad? It seemed James really didn't want any trace of her on Nichole.

Sophie resumed the surveillance video, which showed James first heading upstairs, but he stopped halfway and then moved towards the elevator to go back down.

Shortly thereafter, Harold appeared in the upstairs corridor, phone in hand.
