Even after countless sleepless nights, you've got to face the media and the public with a big smile plastered on your face. But that wasn't even the hardest part. The real kicker was when, after all the press stuff, you had to haul your tired self onto a plane to the next city.
For two years, Sophie had been through the wringer, both physically and emotionally. But James? He’d been living this grind for over a decade. It was just part of the deal for him, and he’d gotten used to rolling solo.
Picking up on Sophie's thoughts, James gave a little chuckle and said, "I used to think the Burke family was a ball and chain for me. But over time, it turned into a habit. If there's ever a day without work, I'd be lost. I might just end up sitting at home, daydreaming my day away."
"You could always be a teacher," Sophie suggested.
"A teacher?" James raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, Odie's doing alright at Summerfield. He might come off as a bit of a klutz, but he's quick on the uptake. The Mintons are running legit businesses now, so you must be doing something right as a teacher."
"Are you... sure about that?"
James pulled out his phone and placed it in front of Sophie. There were headlines about Odie, like "Minton's CEO Does Good Deeds, Fixes Up Slums, Offers Free Training and Jobs for Poor Families."
"That's awesome!" Sophie exclaimed.
"Check out the next headline," James said.
The next headline read: "Minton's CEO Breaks into Home, Robs the Rich to Help the Poor! Detained for Fifteen Days, Fined Thirty Thousand Dollars After Bail."
"Well, that's... interesting." Sophie tried not to laugh.

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free. More about what’s up with Gordon....
