Chapter 259 Sophie answered the call, and on the other end, Ada spoke up, “Ms. Sophie, Nichole called off work today, and I wanted to report that to you." "She did?" If she remembered correctly, Nichole was currently in dire need of money and wouldn't just take a day off without good reason, especially considering S Corporation' policy that interns wouldn't get full attendance for taking leave.
Ada added, "Could it be something about yesterday that made her reconsider things?" Sophie frowned.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIndeed, she had asked Ada to subtly suggest to Nichole that she might be pregnant. However, she hadn't expected Nichole to act on it so swiftly.
"Okay. Try to get in touch with Nichole and find out what's going on. Also, contact Tricia and have her inquire about nearby clinics to see if Nichole has visited any gynecologists." "Will do, Ms. Sophie." After she hung up, Sophie's gaze fell on the calendar beside her.
According to Jenna, there were only three days left before Colby and Adler would return from abroad. She hoped to have everything settled before their return.
Meanwhile, Nichole once again found herself at Katy's modest apartment. Inside, there were three burly men, each with a hint of menace in their eyes.
"Please, have swater, gentlemen..." Katy was carefully pouring tea for them, her face a picture of obsequious charm.
Feeling somewhat intimidated, Nichole still stepped inside. The three men surveyed Nichole as she entered. Pulling Nichole aside into a corner, Katy whispered, “Why did it take you so long to get here?" "Are these the thugs you know?" "Of course not!" Katy said in a hushed tone, "The moment I mentioned kidnapping James' wife, those thugs backed off. Thankfully, one of them introducedto these three. They're from overseas and specialize in this kind of work!" Katy mimicked a snapping gesture. She hadn't anticipated things getting so out of hand, to the point where backing out of the kidnapping wasn't an option anymore.

Katy timidly extended a finger. "One million dollars!" The content is on novelenglish.net! "What?" Nichole's expression soured instantly.
Katy added, "They're professionals, after all. You wanted Sophie gone Sophie gone right? They can provide after-service and ensure no one can find Sophie's body. No one will know it was you."
"That won't work." Frowning, Nichole said, "If Sophie disappears and nobody can find her body, James will an never stop looking for her and won't divorce her. Only if Sophie's body is found, can I have a chance to enter the Burke family." "But a million dollars! Who can afford that?" Katy looked utterly distressed.
