Chapter 181 "Sophie James stepped forward, placing a small box into Sophie's hands.
Sophie frowned. "What's this?" "its what I owe you" James didn't elaborate, so Sophie opened the box to reveal a diamond ring inside.
When she had mamed James previously, there had been no wedding ceremony or ring, just a simple registration at the city hall without even a reception. His excuse at the twas that he was too busy.

Sophie frowned, puzzled. "Why are you givinga ring now?" "I neglected your feelings before. I hope you can giveanother chance," James pleaded. Sophie had not expected such words from him, but she quickly regained her composure.
"Are you doing this because of the Russell family?” she asked sharply.
After all, she was a Russell, and the new commercial plaza that Burke International was launching involved major investments from the Russell family. The new mall of S Corporation was a significant blow to Burke International, and he couldn't afford a divorce at such a crucial time.
James' face changed slightly upon hearing Sophie's accusation. "Why do you always think I have ulterior motives?" He grabbed her arm, his voice dropping. "Can't it just be because........" He trailed off, lowering his voice even further. "Because I love you" His voice was barely a whisper Sophie was taken aback.
James, with a furrowed brow, tightened his grip on her hand. "Why do you keep pushingaway? You used to be afraid of me, but now you're just cold" "Do you really want to know why?" "I need to know. You weren't like this before." The old Sophie had always been by his side, adoring him, visible to anyone who looked.
Ever since that auction, Sophie had changed. He couldn't understand what he had done wrong. Since that day, he had never again seen the love she once had for him in her eyes.
was I like before? Always following you around like a puppy? Asking tirelessly what you liked? Dressing to please you, even if it copying others?" Jarries was stunned.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSophie continued, “James, did you really like that Sophie?"
"Admit it, James. You never likedback then. Do you remember how much you despised me? Now you say you ove me, but it's only because you've noticed that I don't care for you anymore. It's just your possessiveness acting up." Sophie looked at him coldly. James wanted to argue, but her words left him with no ground to stand on.
I you never respected that Sophie. Now I don't like you
"Back then, I gave you a sense of male superiority, but that wasn't the realand you anymore. It's that ET simple." "Even if I regret it, even if I say I love you now, it doesn't matter?"
"James, there's no such thing as a potion for regret." Sophie pulled her hand away declaring. The Sophie who loved you isn't coming back, and I will never fall for you again." Pain was evident in James' eyes. "Not even a slight possibility?" Her tone was as sharp as it was firm. "Absolutely not."
