James looked visibly upset, his body stiffening as Sophie forced her way in.
The room was dimly lit, and at some point, a table had been set up with a candlelit dinner.
Seeing this, Sophie's expression also changed. It didn't take much guessing to realize this was Bea's doing. No wonder she insisted that James drive her home after they left the mall. This had been her plan all along.
"Sophie, you're really something."
"It wasn't me."
Sophie tried to explain, but James had already thrown the stuff in his hands to the floor and left without looking back, storming out of the Burke residence.
As soon as James stepped outside, he realized the chauffeur had driven the car away.
Sophie fully understood Bea's intentions. If she and James didn't stay together tonight, Bea would likely not let it go.
"Save your energy," Sophie said. "You sleep in the living room. I'll take the bedroom."
James gave Sophie a cold look. "I'm warning you, don't try any tricks." Then, he walked inside.
Facing the disdain in James' eyes, Sophie could only scoff at herself.
'Look at yourself, Sophie. This is what you get for liking James. No matter how much you liked him before, you're just someone who resorts to sleazy tactics.'
She was surprised to realize how poorly James thought of her.
Sophie walked over to the table and looked at the dinner spread. James wasn't hungry, but she had spent the whole day shopping with Bea and was exhausted.
"Aren't you going to eat?"
"Not hungry."

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....
