In the spacious living room of Burke Estate, Sophie watched the news coverage of the funeral on TV, unable to hold back her words to Gordon, who sat opposite her, "Mr. Gordon, is this really necessary?"
The volume was cranked up so high, it felt like it was meant just for her.
How much did Gordon love his gossip?
"Sorry, I was just flipping through channels," Gordon said, before turning the volume up even higher.
Sophie forced a smile. "Mr. Gordon, what are you trying to say?"
"It's odd, isn't it? At the funeral, why can't we see James?"
Gordon skimmed through the footage, where Bea and others were present, but there was no sign of James.
Gordon remarked nonchalantly, "His wife has died, and he doesn't even show his face. Does this confirm the rumors that he killed her?"
"What murder?" Sophie frowned, clearly not grasping what Gordon was insinuating.
Gordon turned to Sophie and said, "I see Mrs. Costello hasn’t heard. Maybe I shouldn't say anything then."
Sophie didn't buy Gordon's coyness for a second. "Mr. Gordon, you've already brought it up, might as well spill the beans. What exactly happened?"
"Nichole's body was found with a bullet through her forehead. Even though the body was charred, the cause of death was pretty obvious. Considering who had free access to the Burke estate and could have shot Nichole, doesn't James seem like the most likely suspect?"
"James killing Nichole? That's ridiculous."

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.
