In the room, moonlight caressed Nichole's skin, making it appear exceptionally delicate.
Nichole slipped off her blouse, revealing a swath of smooth skin across her chest.
James immediately averted his gaze, but Nichole caught his hand. "James, I'm your woman. We have made love. Why won't you look at me?"
Once a man had indulged, abstinence became a challenge.
Nichole moved closer, her whole being nestled against James, trying to awaken his desires, but the next second, James pushed Nichole away.
Nichole was caught off balance and fell onto the bed, while James' expression was as if he had been touched by something vile. James coldly stated, "I warned you. If you're not going to stay put and rest, starting tomorrow, you're moving out of the Burke residence."
"James?"
James left the bedroom without looking back, leaving Nichole in disbelief.
The next day, Sophie got the inside scoop, somewhat surprised. "Nichole moved out of the Burke residence?"
"Yes, she was seen being escorted out of the Burke residence early this morning."
"Bea agreed to let her go?"
"Nichole offended the Aldridge family. It seems even Bea has to give Mr. Gordon some respect."
Tricia's reasoning was sound. Sophie thought it over and found it made sense.
The place Nichole had moved into was originally her and James' marital home.
That was indeed scandalous. If the media got wind of it, it would likely cause an uproar.
"There's one more thing."
"Hmm?"
The officers exchanged a glance, and one immediately stepped forward to handcuff Sophie. "You're being accused of accepting bribes and embezzling funds. We're taking you in for questioning by law."
Tricia was stunned. "Accepting bribes, embezzling funds? Officer, there must be some mistake. We demand legal representation!"
"You can seek a lawyer, but she needs to come with us to the station now."
With that, the officers led Sophie away.
Sophie frowned.
All eyes were now on her. Sophie's gaze swept over everyone present.
Who reported her?
She had always managed the finances strictly, leaving no room for error. This accusation was clearly baseless.

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.
