Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

After hearing the plan, Jenna clapped her hands enthusiastically. “That was brilliant!”

A faint smile appeared on Sophie’s face. Honestly, she didn’t mean to target Nichole on purpose, but since Nichole had been manipulative first, she couldn’t just sit back and take it.

At noon, Nichole slowly descended from upstairs, her movements hindered by her bad leg, making the descent somewhat laborious However, when she saw Marian busy in the living room, a sense of superiority welled up in her

“Marian, I’m hungry. Time to make lunch. Nichole said sharply, without a hint of the fragility she had shown the previous night in James”

Upon seeing Nichole, Marian was seething with frustration, her face a mask of discontent. However, Nichole was James‘ guest, and Marian could only reply, “Lunch isn’t until 12 o’clock. Those are the rules set by Mrs. Burke.”

At the mention of Sophie, Nichole felt a sting in her heart.

Tears welled up in Nichole’s eyes, but she held them back.
