Chapter 130
Sophie instantly noticed the black suit Nichole was wearing, adorned with the Burke family crest on the chest. It was James Jacket
“Ms. Sophie, Ms. Jenna Nichole greeted them with a smile. “What a coincidence”
Jenna looked even worse than Sophie, especially after leaming that James had hurt Sophie because of Nichole. Without a second thought, Jenna slapped Nichole right across the face.
Sophie couldn’t hold Jenna back in time, whose gaze tumed icy
Nichole’s eyes reddened instantly, tears welling up. “Ms. Jenna, what did I do? Why did you hit me?”
Nichole’s tearful plea drew attention from students heading to their morning classes at Eastwood College, who only dared to watch from a distance.
Nichole was somewhat of a celebrity at Eastwood College, known not only for her outstanding achievements and good looks but also for her generally positive and kind image
Most students had heard of Nichole’s good deeds. The boys, in particular, were protective of her.
“You ask why I hit you?” Jenna scoffed. “You spread nimors that Sophie is a gold-digger and slandered her on the school bulletin board! How can you be so shameless? Why are you clinging to someone else’s husband?”

Nichole’s tears streamed down her face. She looked like the whole world had misunderstood her. “Ms. Jenna, how can you insult me in front of all these people? I may be poor, but I have my dignity! I never did those things!”
Nichole’s defiant expression continued, “You can’t just slander me because Sophie is your close friend! I may be poor, but I won’t let you tamish my reputation! Even if you are wealthy, you can’t just throw dirt on me like this
Jenna was angry but momentanly lost for words in the face of such moral coercion.
Sophie stepped in front of Jenna, amused by Nichole’s act. “You are cor?”
Nichole still had that pitiful yet stubborn look as she faced Sophie.
Sophie had always just returned t i t for tat with Nichole, never going too far or intending to make Nichole’s life at school unbearable.
But Nichole’s recent behavior had changed Sophie’s mind. She really shouldn’t have considered Nichole’s dignity.
Sophie advanced, and Nichole, frightened, stepped back. “What are you going to do?!”
Sophie swiftly grabbed the bag from Nichole’s hands, pulling out one bank card after another. She also took the suit jacket draped over Nichole’s shoulders.
“All these bank cards, and not one of them wasn’t given to you by James. He gives you thousands every month for living expenses, covers your hefty tuition fees, bought you that bag, and pays for your daily essentials. Don’t forget, James and I are married-his money is our joint property. What right do you have to claim poverty? Where do you get the audacity to say you have integrity?”
Nichole looked mortified.
“This jacket belongs to James, right?” Sophie said coldly. “My husband is really thoughtful, funding your education, personally bringing you to school, and making sure you’re covered up, just so you won’t catch a cold.”
With those words, everyone around understood what was happening. A married man caring so deeply for another woman was a clear sign of an inappropriate relationship.
“Never thought Nichole was like that.”
1 thought she really
ly had integrity.
