"Nichole, have you ordered yet?" At this moment, Ada had just come out of the restroom.
Nichole shook her head. "Not yet."
Ada frowned and said, "What's the matter? You can't even handle something as simple as ordering? Never mind, I'll do it."
Ada's tone clearly carried an air of authority. Everyone present was no fool. This was not merely a colleague speaking but a supervisor.
Nichole's face turned sour, wishing she could just disappear. She returned to her seat immediately, distancing herself from James' table.
James could tell Sophie was deliberately making things difficult for Nichole. He whispered, "Are you upset?"
"Not really." Sophie swirled her drink and said, "I just don't like others touching my things."
James gave a wry smile. "I thought you were jealous. It seems I was overthinking."
Sophie had never previously troubled Nichole without reason. He had thought Sophie was acting out of jealousy, but now it was clear that Sophie was stressing her status as Mrs. Burke, not out of jealousy.
But even just that was enough to please him.
James served Sophie some food, saying, "If one day you trouble her out of jealousy, I'd be very happy."
Sophie didn't respond. Her actions today were merely to show everyone that James had abandoned Nichole.
Those in their circle were all cunning and perfectly understood the meaning of opportunism.

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....
