James was alone in the office, sitting tiredly in his chair. He pulled out the only photo he had of Sophie from a drawer, a bitter smile forming in his heart.

It was from the first the had accompanied Sophie shopping. While she was eating, he had sneakily taken a selfie of them with his phone.

He had never let Sophie know about this photo.

He was surprised when he pressed the shutter button, as at that time, he clearly didn't like Sophie and was always cold to her.

James rubbed his temples and leaned back in his office chair.

"Sophie, you're not dead, right? Why won't you cback? The sky was dim, and the living room was airing the news about the wife of the CEO of Burke International being kidnapped and thrown into the sea.

Sophie was sitting on the sofa, quietly watching the news report on the incident.

Colby placed a cup of herbal tea in front of her, saying, "Still running around with a cold?" Sophie looked up, saw Colby, and held the cup in her hands. “It's been three days. Seems like choosing to fake my death wasn't the best plan. Making a video to deceive James would have been much simpler." She and the kidnappers had agreed on the plan. They just needed to fake her death in return for a hundred million dollars afterward. Naturally, they were happy to accept more money and agreed gleefully.

After falling into the water, she was supposed to return on a lifeboat, but Colby and Adler suddenly appeared. She followed them to avoid the approaching search and rescue team and headed back to Colby's house first. The incident was sudden, and she hadn't expected Colby to find her location so accurately.

Being James' wife is too troublesand has always been holdingback. With so many eyes on me, I had to do this to keep him from finding out," Sophie said with a laugh. "Speaking of which, those kidnappers indirectly dida favor. I just havent figured out who hired them." The three kidnappers were clearly professionals, at least in the business of murder for hire. Not many could have access to such people, certainly not someone like Calla, who was a lady of high society While Sophie was lost in thought, Colby reached out and touched her forehead

Sophie was startled, and Colby said in a deep voice, "You're still a bitm feverish Go back to rest. Adler will En look into the rest. Hearing this, Sophie fell silent for a moment, then asked, "What have you been doing abroad for so many days?"

She knew that Colby's business was overseas, and according to the m timeline of her past life, Colby hadn't yet dominated the city or contended with James.

However, since her rebirth, everything was happening too quickly, and she wasn't sure if the future would unfold as it had in her past At least for now, Colby didn't seem to have any major moves planned for the city. Colby watched Sophie's serious expression, and smiled slightly. He tapped her forehead, "To arrange the wedding gifts." life.
