Nichole felt her back aching from bowing, but she couldn't raise her head at this moment. She was seething inside.

"I'm not heartless," Sophie finally spoke, her tone icy. " Ms. Rowena, I just hope that in the future, you can watch your words more carefully. Don't make baseless assumptions about others. That way, you won't bring shame to the Burke family, right?"
