Nichole's face lit up with joy at James' response.
Jenna had received a message from Sophie last night and had her driver bring her over early this morning. As Sophie got out of the car, the driver loaded her luggage into the trunk.
"Why are you wearing a scarf in this weather?" Jenna asked, puzzled.
"My neck's a bit chilly, Sophie replied with a forced laugh.
Jenna, however, sensed something was amiss and pulled away the scarf, revealing the bruises on Sophie's neck. "Who did this? James?" Jenna fumed.
Sophie knew how temperamental Jenna could be and tried to calm her, "It doesn't hurt anymore." "Was it that bastard?!" Jenna was furious and was about to storm into the Burke family estate, but Sophie quickly held her back.
"Don't. I'm really okay." "No way! I'm going to make that jerk pay!" Sophie clung to Jenna, refusing to let go. "James just promised not to take action against the Dennis Group. If you stir things up, it could get out of hand!" "I'm not afraid of him! Let him try to takedown!" Sophie hurriedly pulled Jenna into the car and instructed the driver to lock the doors.

Jenna's eyes reddened with suppressed anger. "That's why I took over Freddie's company, and Freddie paid with his life. Men who hit their wives are no good!" Sophie squeezed Jenna's hand tightly.
Jenna sniffed and added, "It's all in the past now." Yes, it was all in the past, but the pain was experienced firsthand. How could it be easy to let go? The car pulled up outside Eastwood College, and Jenna accompanied Sophie inside for breakfast. When they reached the entrance of Liberty Hall, they unfortunately ran into Nichole.
Nichole's face looked weary, and her frail appearance was pitifully endearing.
