Nichole was well aware Sophie hadn't gone far. As Sophie thought about this, she couldn't help but chuckle. She thought Nichole might have become something impressive by now, but it turned out she was still the same as before.
The taller the tree, the more wind it catches. The more ostentatious one was, believing they'd reached the top, the harder they fell in the end.
In the parking garage, Colby had just gotten out of his car, popping a lollipop into his mouth, when suddenly a hand covered his eyes from behind. Colby let out a soft laugh. "Stop it."
"How did you know it was me?"
Sophie jumped in front of Colby, who then took her hand in his, saying, "Even with my eyes closed, I'd know it was you behind me."
"I heard you never let your guard down with enemies."
"That's true."
"Well, then, I have some rather bad news for you."
Sophie relayed everything Tricia had told her in detail to Colby.
Colby's frown deepened, and Sophie reached out to smooth his brow, saying, "What's the matter? I didn't even make such a face, and you're already frowning."
Colby's voice was deep, filled with a hint of indulgence. "My bad. I thought Tricia and Reece could handle it."
"Now that it's happened, all we can do is try our best to make amends." Sophie took Colby's hand, adding, "Besides, this was my issue to begin wit. You've done nothing wrong."
"Did Nichole give you trouble?"
"It was alright. It was not really trouble. You know me. I never let myself be at a loss for words."
"It seems my reputation isn't imposing enough. Nowadays, anyone dares to mess with my woman."
Sophie detected a hint of battle in his words and asked warily, "What are you going to do?"
"Of course, I'm going to defend my wife's honor."
"Aren't you the one who never bothers with women?"

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....
