Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

As the doctor emerged from the hospital room, James approached him urgently, his voice tense. “How is Nichole doing? Is it serious?” The doctor replied, “It’s not too severe, but there’s a wound on her forehead that might leave a scar. For a young lady, her face in probably her most cherished part, and you might need to help her overcome this emotional hurdle in the future.”

James was stunned

Sophie had just arrived at the hospital when she overheard James talking with the doctor.

James was weary and rubbed his forehead. When he tumed and saw Sophie, his gaze was icy. “You showed up? Nichole’s face is ruined–happy now?”

“James, calm down,” Sophie responded emotionlessly. “No one wanted this to happen. Besides, it was an accident. We couldn’t have predicted it.”

“We?” James scoffed coldly as if he’d heard a joke. “So you and Colby have become ‘we‘ now?”

Sophie frowned.

James stepped forward, each step he took toward Sophie increasing the tension. “Last time at the hotel, were you with Colby and Adler? Was Jenna just covering for you? What exactly is going on between you and Colby? How far have you two gone?”

James gripped Sophie’s wrist tightly. Facing the fury in his eyes, Sophie instinctively jerked her hand free. “James! Enough! I don’t understand what you’re talking about!”

After Sophie pulled away, James spoke coldly, “Sophie, you better pray that Nichole’s face can be fixed, or I’m gonna take action against the Dennis family.”

Just then, a scream came from the hospital room.

James instinctively pushed the door open to find Nichole throwing a glass across the room. By the time Sophie entered, Nichole was clinging to James, buried in his embrace. “My face, my face, is it ruined? I can’t live with a ruined face…”

“Easy, easy. It’s alright, James soothed her gently. “The doctor said you need to keep your emotions stable, or the stitches n

Nichole’s forehead and arms were marked with scars. She looked up at Sophie, eyes full of hatred, and pointed at her from a distance. “Sophie, I’ve done nothing to you. Why are you doing this to me? It must be you!”

Sophie quietly observed Nichole’s outburst. She had thought the car accident was just an accident, but Nichole’s immediate accusations made her suspect there was more to the story.

James held Nichole’s hand, comforting her softly, “Nichole, calm down. I’ll handle this. You just focus on healing.”

Nichole was sobbing, and her face was flushed with tears. She told James, “I just wanted to apologize to Jenna. I don’t know when I offended Sophie. She and Jenna humiliated me publicly, time and again. I don’t know what I did wrong. If my face is ruined, I don’t want to live”

James looked back at Sophie, his eyes growing colder, even disdainful. “Get out! I don’t want to see you!”

Sophie cast one last glance at Nichole, who smirked triumphantly in James‘ arms. That smirk challenged Sophie.

With a cold sneer, Sophie turned and left the hospital room.

Colt followed, murmuring, “Ma’am, Mr. Burke is just upset because of Ms. Nichole’s accident. Please don’t take it to heart.”

“Tell James, from today onward, I’m moving out of the Burke family home. Since Nichole is so severely injured, she can stay there as long as she likes and heal.” Sophie left without looking back.

Colt returned to the hospital room and relayed Sophie’s words to James..

Feeling a surge of anger, James said, “If she wants to leave, let her leave!”
