James looked uncomfortable. He was always proud and never bowed to anyone. His admission that he had wronged Sophie was already a significant concession.
Trying to remain calm, James said, Tm sorry, I should have accused you. It's not a big deal thought, just a girl's embarrassment leading her to falsely accuse Harold." led lightly. "So that's how it is." Before James could finish, Sophie chuckled James pursed his lips.
Sophie continued, "How could you apologize out of the blue? It's about Nichole, isn't it?" 1 "You wantto plead Nichole's case with the Aldridge family?" James didn't speak.

Or do you wantto speak directly to Harold?” "I didn't want you to plead for Nichole.” James looked up, about to explain, but seeing Sophie's indifferent gaze, he stopped himself, What was he said, Sophie wouldn't believe him.
"If we have nothing else to discuss, may I leave?" "Where are you going?" The question made James' heart skip a beat "Back to the Aldridge family?" there to explain? No matter what "My injury is healed. I'm going back to my apartment. School is starting soon, and I have internship tasks to attend to. I don't have tto run between homes," phie turned to leave, but James suddenly asked, "What is your relationship with S Corporation?" Sophie turned around, clearly exasperated, “James, are you just making conversation? What relationship could I possibly have with S Corporation? All I did was make a bad deal once, selling them a piece of land, and you're still holding onto that. Do you think I'm the hidden owner of S Corporation?" Reflecting on her words, James stepped forward and asked, "Were you at the Aldridge family all evening today?"
"You've askedthat before, and your people should have told you, haven't left the Aldridge family these past few days."
Having received Sophie's answer, James fell into deep thought. He had intended to meet the mysterious Blake rumored to be at tonight's masquerade ball, but ended up noticing nothing. Watching Sophie, he couldn't discern any clues from her expression either,
"Instead of suspectinghere, you might as well focus on running your company. Theard it's been hit quite hard since S Corporation went public." James retorted coldly. "It's just a newly company. Any impact on Burke International is minimal." Sophie shrugged indifferently, "Perhaps." But if there truly was no serious impact, James wouldn't have appeared at tonight's masquerade ball.
It just goes to show, James was stubborn to the end: Sophie turned to leave, but James' valce followed her from behind.
