Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 238

As Sophie's mind wandered, James suddenly threw himself in front of her, causing her to startle. She only heard the sound of eggs cracking, and when she turned around, she saw those people throwing rotter eggs at her.

James was standing right in front of her.

Sophie was taken aback. "You..."

At the same time, Calla witnessed this scene and immediately rushed out of the room, yelling at the security guards, "What are you waiting for? Get rid of them all!" "Right away!"

The security guards quickly dispersed the women, who ran away as soon as they saw Calla.

"James..." Calla's face turned sour as she hurriedly checked James' suit, which was now dirty. "I'll go get you a new outfit right away."

"No need." James swept Calla with a cold glance. "I don't want today's incident to happen again."

Calla felt a chill from his gaze. Biting her lip, she said, "I don't understand what you mean, James." "Let's get in and change," Sophie said, pulling James back to their room.

The commotion at the door had also upset Bea, who looked even more displeased. "What happened?"

"Some of Reece's fans were causing trouble outside." While speaking, Sophie glanced at Calla, then added, "They almost hurt James. But... I'm also curious about how they found our address."

Having been in these circles for decades, Bea knew all too well the tactics of women. She also looked toward Calla, who said somewhat aggrievedly, "Madam, why are you looking at me like that? I had nothing to do with this."

"Enough," Bea said with some impatience. "You take James to change. Calla, come with me."

"Yes, Grandma Bea."

Calla obediently followed Bea into the room.

Sophie took James upstairs. She took out a black suit from the wardrobe and asked, "Why did you take the hit for me? What if they had thrown rocks instead of eggs?"

"I'm your husband. It's my duty to protect you."

James began to unbutton his shirt, casually tossing the soiled suit into a nearby trash bin.

As James proceeded to undress, Sophie quickly turned around. "What are you doing?"

"Taking a shower. I feel dirty."

Sophie heard the sounds of James undressing and frowned. "Then wait for me to leave before you shower."

"Grandma is downstairs. If you leave, she'll be suspicious."

"..."

Before Sophie could say anything, James took the new clothes from her hands. "I'll be quick." Then, he turned and entered the bathroom.

Soon, the sound of running water filled the room, and Sophie, sitting on the bed, found her mind drifting to memories of a past life.

Back then, she was wearing Nichole's favorite white dress, sitting nervously on the bed, waiting for James to arrive.

Bea had drugged James, so he was like a man intoxicated. He tore off her clothes and slept with her for the first time. His face was flushed, his eyes blurry. Sophie softly called him, but he kept murmuring 'Nichole' under his breath.
