The next morning, Sophie woke up in her apartment and saw a piece of news on her phone. The news reported that police officers had gone to the Central City Hospital early in the morning and, in front of everyone, took Nichole away just after she had suffered a miscarriage.
While people were buzzing with speculation, eager to know the truth behind Nichole's miscarriage and arrest, James personally intervened. He went to the hospital to bail out Nichole right after her miscarriage. This news immediately became a hot topic.
Netizens speculated that James still harbored feelings for Nichole. He had spent a fortune to bail her out.
‘Ding ding—’
Sophie’s phone rang with a call from Jenna. Jenna said, “I’m already outside Burke International with a pickaxe in hand. Do you want to come?”
“What?”
Sophie had just woken up and was still groggy, but she instantly realized what Jenna was planning to do. Without a second thought, she quickly got dressed and spoke into the phone, “Don’t do anything rash! I’m on my way!”
Colby had been busy with the Costello family affairs these past few days. Lennon had called him away to the main house, leaving Jenna to her own devices.
There was nothing Jenna couldn’t do in Devonport.
Sophie floored it to Burke International’s entrance, where Jenna fumed in the car. “What is James thinking? Did he spend money to bail Nichole out of jail? Has he lost his mind?”
Jenna didn’t know much about last night's events. Adler, sitting in the passenger seat, said, “My lady, maybe hold your tongue! This is Burke family territory!”
“So what if it’s Burke family territory? Does being on Burke family ground mean we can’t speak our minds? Does what he did seem right to you? He claims to have feelings for Sophie, but look at him now!”
“Alright, maybe just quiet down a bit.” Adler tried to calm Jenna down but to no avail.
Jenna exclaimed, “Sophie, I’m telling you, choosing anyone but him is the right decision! Colby is so much better than him!”
“James has always liked Nichole. His action doesn’t surprise me at all, so you shouldn’t be upset.” Sophie replied with a smile, “Alright, we’ve made enough of a scene. Let’s head back, and take that pickaxe in the back with you. Don’t scare me like that.”
“But…” Jenna was still fuming, “What exactly happened last night? I received the Burke family’s dinner invitation as well, but I didn’t go. How could they treat you like this? Nichole lost her child. Was she trying to frame you?”
Jenna’s mind worked quickly. She knew all too well that Sophie wouldn’t be easily bullied. Sophie must have exposed Nichole's schemes during the dinner, leading to her arrest this morning.
Sophie explained, “Nichole and Ricardo teamed up, aiming to put me in a dire situation, but they didn’t succeed. I had Marian install cameras in the Burke family’s house to prevent Nichole from framing me. However…”
Sophie paused. She hadn’t expected James to bail Nichole out. It seemed that Nichole still held a place in James’ heart.
Unlike her, whom James had repeatedly abandoned without a shred of compassion.

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.
