Chapter 131 Sophie's words made James freeze in place.
Pulling Jenna by her side, Sophie said, "Let's go." Jenna followed and spat coldly at Jarnes as they left. Sophie had not wanted to completely sever ties with James, but now she could no longer hold back. "James," Nichole cautiously tugged at James' sleeve. "I'm sorry, this is all my fault" "What's this about the bulletin board?" James suddenly asked. Nichole's face changed slightly, but she quickly put on a pitiful expression. “Someone at school was jealous of Sophie's beauty, so they spread false rumors about her. Sophie thought I was behind it, James frowned deeply. He never meddled in Sophie's school affairs and was unaware of the rumors being spread about her at school. Sophie had never mentioned it to him.

Nichole bit her lip, fearful that James wouldn't believe her, and continued, "The dean investigated the bulletin board incident once and confirmed it was someone else, not me. But Sophie is biased againstand refuses to believe." Watching Nichole bow her head and s o b softly, James couldn't bear to be too harsh. He just patted her head and said, "Go to class. I've already discussed your plans to study abroad with the principal. Your grades have slipped significantly, but if you can top the class in the next exam, you can still secure your place abroad." As James tumed to leave, Nichole hesitated before hugging him from behind, whispering. “James, L... I don't want to go abroad anymore. Can I stay?" James frowned, turned around, and stared at Nichole. "Studying abroad isn't a trivial matter. Tellwhy you don't want to go?" Nichole looked at James, unable to speak. She had wanted to go abroad because she believed that even if she did, James would still hold her in his heart.
But now, she didn't want to go because she feared that once she left, Sophie might take her place.
Td rather stay here and prepare for my master's program." James was silent for a moment before responding, "If that's your decision, I speak to the principal. However, the exams for this year's graduate program have already ended. You'll have to wait." "I understand. I will prepare well" Nichole's cheeks flushed. She was willing to stay close to James as long as she could, even if it meant giving up the opportunity to study abroad.
After dropping Nichole off at school, James left the campus. Colt, who had been waiting in the car, asked, "Mr. Burke, heading back to the office?" "What's the status of the investigation I asked you to carry out?" "Yes, sir. It appears that those rumors about Mrs. Burke being a 'call girl' originated from Sophie's friends, due to sphotographs posted on the Eastwood College bulletin board..." Colt paused, hesitant to continue, but then showed James a photo on his phone.
The post had gone viral on the campus network, claiming. [Campus beauty is a call girl! Used connections to sneak into Eastwood College as a graduate student] The bulletin board photo was even more offensive.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmColt saw the vein on James' forehead bulge and knew that this time, James was truly furious. "Who did this?" "After the incident, the dean conducted an inspection and found that a student named Krystal, who is one of Ms. Nichole's close friends, was responsible." James' brows furrowed deeply.
Colt added, "Mr. Burke, this might be related to Ms. Nichole. Should we continue the investigation?"
