James‘ words didn’t seem like a lie.


    Sophie fell silent. Perhaps people did change. In this life, James had seen through the fa?ade Nichole


    put up, which is why he withdrew his affection for Nichole.


    “Do


    you


    still remember thesepanies?”


    from the Russell family in the previous life.


    Although she knew asking this version of James about them and expecting definite answer was slim,


    she still wanted to try.


    “No.”


    James withdrew his gaze, as expected. He hadn’t yet noticed the Russell family’spanies in this life


    due to her appearance.


    Sophie took a deep breath.


    Ever since she had that dream, she had someone investigate the ounts of those subsidiaries, only


    to find that thesepanies had been in severe loss for a long time. Perry had embezzled all funds,


    leading to severe issues in the ounts.


    James decimated thesepanies in her previous life, and she thought it was James‘ act of revenge.


    Now, it seemed that James‘ destruction of the Russell familypanies wasn’t for revenge but to cover


    up Perry’s gambling and corruption. Then wouldn’t the development of events be…


    “Sophie?” James‘ voice stirred Sophie from her thoughts.


    She came back to her senses and watched James, her eyes carrying an indescribable emotion.


    “Is something wrong?” James asked.


    “It’s nothing. Sophie picked up the phone from the table, ready to leave..


    James hesitated before speaking: “Sophie.”


    Sophie stopped in her tracks and asked, “Is there something else?”


    “If you need anything,e to me anytime.”


    “I don’t think that day wille.”


    Hearing this, James nursed his lips slightly.


    Sophie walked c


    conference room, feeling as if a heavy stone was pressing on her chest.


    She had established S Corporation and originally wanted to revenge on James and build a reliable


    future for herself and the Russell family. But now, a dream had shaken her resolve.


    James wasn’t the person who truly killed her and her unborn child in her previous life. It was Nichole.


    James was not the person she should truly seek revenge against. It was Nichole!


    At that moment, Sophie’s phone buzzed, and upon checking, she saw an iing call from an


    unknown number.


    Sophie, puzzled, answered the call only to hear a familiar, cold voice. “Ms. Sophie, there’s a contract I’d


    like to discuss with you. Do you have time now?”


    “Mr. Gordon?”


    Despite her confusion, Sophie went straight to Gordon’s mansion.

    In the dining hall, lunch wasid out on the table, and the butler invited Sophie to sit.


    Sophie took the seat closest to Gordon.


    Sitting in that seat made Sophie feel uneasy. As Gordon didn’t intend to start the conversation, she


    took the initiative to ask, “The Russell family has gone bankrupt. What kind of contract could I possibly


    sign with you, Mr. Gordon?”


    Gordon handed Sophie a contract.


    “The Russell family might be bankrupt, but don’t forget that me and S Corporation had a cooperation


    agreement not long ago.”
