Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 21

Upon hearing James' words, Nichole lowered her head, standing by his side like a docile and gentle wife. Her appearance was akin to that of a startled rabbit.

Sophie felt a chill in her heart as James' indifferent gaze mirrored that of someone she had known in a past life.

She had intended to express her gratitude, but it was clear now that James simply didn't care.

"I'm very tired. Do as you please."

Sophie went upstairs. Her thoughts were no longer on James and Nichole.

If Ryan could harm her so easily, so could others. She couldn’t always rely on James without having any ability to protect herself.

The next morning, Sophie got ready to leave early. Just as she was descending the stairs, she noticed Bea seated in the living room, with Nichole standing beside her, looking as if she had just cried.

"Grandma Bea?"

Sophie frowned. It was unusual for Bea to visit. What brought her here suddenly?

"James told me you spent ten billion on a piece of land?" There was a hint of accusation in Bea’s tone.

Sophie went downstairs, sat down in front of Bea, and poured her some tea. "Yes, that's true."

"Were you kidnapped by enemies last night as well?"

"Yes." Sophie looked down.

"We are not an ordinary family. Once a woman is married, she should keep a low profile. Business is for the men. What you need to focus on now is having children to prevent others from getting the wrong idea."
