Chapter 100
No wonder Sophie, who used to chase after him relentlessly, now desperately wanted a divorce. It turned out she had taken a fancy to
Colby.
Good.
James tumed the car around and quickly retumed to the Burke family estate.
Nichole was waiting for James in the living room. Seeing James return with a gloomy expression, Nichole tentatively asked, “Sophie didn’t come back with you?”
James‘ expression grew even colder. If she doesn’t want to come back, she can stay outside forever.”
A secret joy blossomed in Nichole’s heart.
Sophie was truly foolish. She had the chance to win James‘ heart, but she was so stubborn.
But this was good for Nichole. As long as Sophie was out of the house, she would have the opportunity to get closer to James, to win his heart.
Nichole watched James‘ profile, fimly believing she could win him over. In the past, she could vaguely feel that James had feelings for her. He was always different with her than with anyone else.
The next moming, Sophie woke up groggily in bed, opening her eyes to a white ceiling and unfamiliar surroundings.
She rubbed her head, only remembering that last night she and Jenna had gone to a nightclub and hung out with male models. Later, Adler and Colby caught them and took them out of the club. She seemed to have fallen asleep in the car, and then she remembered nothing more.
“Knock knock
There was a knock at the door.
Sophie said, “Come in.”

The person who entered was Jenna, who looked apologetically at Sophie and said, “Sophie, Im really sorry. I drank too much last night.” “It’s okay. I had fun.”
“Get up and wash up! Breakfast is ready!” Adler called from the kitchen.
Sophie got out of bed and saw both Colby and Adler in the living room.
The decor in the house was somber and monotonous, and the color scheme was uniform. The furniture was simply arranged, and nothing was out of place. Sophie could tell that the furnishings were unique, not something you’d find in a regular store.
“What are you spacing out for? Go wash up. I’ve made breakfast already” Adler urged the dazed Sophie.
Sophie tugged at Jenna, realizing she was still in pajamas.
Jenna quickly grasped Sophie’s confusion and whispered, “Colby had the housekeeper change you into them.”
“This is Colby’s house?”
“Yeah.” Jenna added, “Colby grew up in Devonport, but after he went abroad, this place was vacant for a long time.”
Sophie nodded.
Jenna took Sophie’s hand. “Come on, let’s go freshen up. Let them go about their business”
To be accurate, they had to let Adler be because he was bustling about like a mother hen.
“How did we get back her last night?” Sophie couldn’t help but ask.
Jenna shook her head. “I don’t know either. I only opened my eyes when it was already light.”
Sophie only remembered Colby telling her to take a nap. After that, she had no idea what happened. Thinkhg about her embarrassing drunken antics from the night before made her unable to lift her head
“It was probably my cousin who carried you back, hehe, he is really thoughtful! He’s always been so, except he’s never carried me!” Jenna had a knowing look on her face.
Sophie’s cheeks flushed, and when she came out of the bathroom and saw Colby sitting at the table, her heart started to beat faster. Adler turned around, puzzled, “Sophie, why is your face so red? You’re not running a fever, are you?”
