Chapter 114 "Is it about me?" "Sort of." Harold said, "I was still at hthis morning when my brother mentioned something about the Burke family having stroubles. It's insider information. I guess you haven't heard yet." "You call the way to school just to gossip about the Burkes?" Harold's face uncontrollably flushed a bit, then he turned his head away and said, "Don't getwrong, I just wanted to get sinformation about the Burke family from you "I probably know less than you do." Sophie stopped teasing Harold and asked, “So what exactly happened to the Burke family?" "Inside news. The Burke family has sshady financial leaks that caused several of their funding chains to break, and all collaborations with sintemational organizations have been halted. Soon, the Burke family might have to face inquiries from authorities, and G o d knows how much they will lose." Harold mentioned international organizations, and Sophie immediately thought of Colby. Only Colby had such influence abroad.
"You wouldn't happen to know who did it, would you?" Harold tried to read something from Sophie's expression. Sophie raised an eyebrow and said, “If I knew who was responsible, I wouldn't be the last one in class to hear the news." It was ironic, really. She was James' wife, yet she knew less about his things than outsiders.

Harold's tone carried a hint of jealousy, and Sophie replied, "You know that was just for show. When have you ever seen him andact like a loving couple?" "That time..." Harold opened his mouth, recalling the day Sophie fainted into his arms, and James whisked her away. Then, he shut his mouth, deciding not to bring it up.
Sophie frowned, "Which time?" "I've just given you such important news. How are you going to thank me?" "Let's have lunch." Sophie pulled out a meal card. "I've got money these days.' Aside from her classmates, hardly anyone knew she was James' wife. She deliberately maintained the image of an ordinary graduate student, minimizing her presence to avoid drawing too much attention. If Bea found out she was attending Eastwood College, she'd really be in trouble.
Harold didn't hesitate. He chose the most expensive restaurant in Eastwood College for their lunch, seemingly eager to make it known that he was dining with James' wife.
Harold frowned, “What? You're treatingto lunch and already worrying about the money on your card?" It wasn't really about the money on the card for Sophie, but here in this place, almost everyone was a well- known figure in upper society. Her and Harold being seen together would inevitably lead to gossip.
"Harold, the place next door isn't bad either. It's more affordable. Maybe we could..." "Cut the chatter, let's go in!" Harold pulled Sophie into the restaurant, and just as she stepped in, she spotted a familiar figure.
Nichole was sitting in the most conspicuous spot in the restaurant with Krystal and Tina by her side.
