Reece chuckled. He gently took hold of Sophie's hand as she patted his shoulder, and said, "Ms. Sophie, as your loyal partner, I absolutely won't stand by and watch you get bullied."
"What are you going to do?" Sophie watched Reece warily.
Reece winked and put a finger to his lips. "It's a secret."
Sophie was utterly confused.
The next day, the news of Reece finishing his shoot and leaving Palm's Jewels had spread everywhere.
Sophie returned to her desk, only to find her documents in complete disarray and her computer screen covered with sticky notes.
"Sophie, you've been hanging around Reece these past few days, neglecting your internship duties. Ms. Nichole left these for you. They must be completed by today, or you can say goodbye to your internship evaluation."
A female coworker dumped a stack of documents on Sophie's desk.
Glancing at the pile of papers almost as tall as her computer, Sophie turned to see Nichole smirking triumphantly in the office.
Sophie had expected something like this, but she never imagined Nichole's plan could be so simple.
Sophie approached her desk, counted the documents, and said, "If I recall, weren't these reports assigned to you by Alexis yesterday?"
The female coworker wasn't intimidated by Sophie. "So what? I'm a full-time employee, and delegating this task to you is a sign of trust!"
Sophie sneered. "So I need to verify these reports and produce ten corresponding action plans in one day?"
The coworker faltered but retorted, "Sophie, this is a learning opportunity! Don't be ungrateful! Palm's Jewels is a publicly traded company with a solid reputation. You got into the Eastwood College research program through backdoors, and landing an internship here is your good fortune!"

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....
