Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 239

The first time they had sex, James mistook Sophie for Nichole, and he was tender to the extreme.

That evening, they had sex for the second time, but James had regained his senses. He believed she had drugged him, and his actions were rough.

After that night, James' attitude toward her turned extremely vile. To vent his anger, he took revenge on the Russell family, secretly scheming to bankrupt them.

Even when she was pregnant, he ignored her, leaving her to die on the operating table at the hospital.

Thinking of this, Sophie clenched her fists.

'Sophie, oh Sophie, how could you forget everything he has done just because of his recent kindness?'

'James is cold-hearted to the core. He only loves himself the most.'

A moment later, James came out of the bathroom, wearing only a white bathrobe, with droplets of water falling from his hair tips.

He saw Sophie sitting silently by the bed, approached her with a smile, and asked, "Are you alright?"

Just as James was about to reach out to tidy her hair, Sophie turned her head away. His hand froze mid-air. Sophie stood up and asked, "I have a question for you."

"Go ahead."

"Is Nichole really an orphan?"

"Yes."

"Was she a student at a private girls' school?"

"Mhm."

"Then why did you choose her?"

Without much thought, James truthfully replied, "She was top of her class at the private girls' school. Burke International wanted to support a few students, and these students weren't chosen at random. We considered multiple factors, ensuring the students were talented, of good character, and had a positive image before we decided to help."
