Hearing James' words, Nichole stopped sobbing and instead lifted her head, her eyes pitiful as she looked at him. "So, I can really stay at the Burke residence?"
James gently ruffled Nichole's hair and said, "I'll have Lee go to your dormitory to collect your things. It's not inconvenient for you to stay at the school while you're healing. You’ll stay at my home."
Nichole sniffled and leaned into James’ embrace, whispering, "Thank you, Mr. Burke."
Colt, standing nearby, frowned upon witnessing this scene.
As the saying goes, the onlooker sees most of the game. Others could easily tell Nichole was feigning her distress, but James seemed oblivious to any deceit.
That evening, Sophie called a moving company to remove all her possessions from the Burke residence.
By dusk, James, supporting an injured Nichole, arrived at the now sparsely furnished and somewhat desolate Burke family home. Seeing this, James felt a pang of discomfort.
Nichole asked, "Mr. Burke, where will I be staying?"
"There’s a guest room upstairs."
Nichole nodded and then hesitated slightly. "My leg hurts. I can’t make it up on my own."
"I’ll help you," James said tenderly, his voice soft.
Nichole’s heart swelled with sweetness.
Despite the perils of the recent car accident and the injury to her face, experiencing James' meticulous care felt worth it to Nichole, especially after that quarrel with Sophie.

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....
