Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 27
James spent the night at the hospital with Nichole, and suddenly received a call from Colt in the morning. He furrowed his brows and asked, "What entrance exam?"
"Mr. Burke, the school administration called today and mentioned seeing Mrs. Burke's name on the list of entrance exam candidates. They wanted to check with you if she had informed you."
James vividly remembered that Sophie was out shopping with his mother the previous evening. When had she signed up for an exam?
"Got it."
After he hung up, James' expression remained troubled. What was Sophie up to now?
"Mr. Burke, was that the school on the phone? Maybe I should head back to class," Nichole suggested, having woken up without James noticing.
"I've already spoken with Colt and the school. You rest up in the hospital today. The call wasn't about you, anyway."
"What was it about then?" Nichole asked, puzzled.
James was only known to assist one student at the college, which was her.
"It's about Sophie," James replied, massaging his temples. "I need to make a quick trip back. You stay and
rest.
Nichole nodded obediently.
Once James had left, Nichole murmured to herself, "Sophie? What does she have to do with the school?"
Meanwhile, Sophie was leisurely strolling through the Eastwood College campus. Being James' wife, she was accompanied by the dean and vice dean, who eagerly showcased the college's educational facilities and picturesque landscapes.
Dressed casually with her hair in a ponytail, Sophie radiated the fresh charm of a college student, drawing curious glances from passing students wondering about her identity.
Soon, James' car pulled up at the entrance of Eastwood College.
Tina, spotting the vehicle, felt a sense of familiarity. "Isn't that Nichole's boyfriend's car?"
They had seen it drop off Nichole several times before.
"Yeah, I saw Nichole getting into it just last night," Krystal added, confused. "Didn't she say her boyfriend was taking her to the hospital? Did she get discharged already?"
As James emerged from the car alone, their curiosity heightened. With his tall stature and a natural air of exclusivity, James always seemed to command attention.
Sophie was escorted by the school executives to the school gate. When she noticed James approaching. she didn't intend to hide anything. Given James' connections with the college, he was bound to find out about her exam registration sooner or later.
As the school executives were present, James briskly approached Sophie and said sternly, "Come with
me.

To onlookers, their interaction appeared quite intimate
"Oh my gosh, isn't that Nichole's boyfriend? Who is that girl with him?"
"She's gorgeous. I've never seen her around our campus before."
Krystal snapped a photo and sent it to Nichole with the message: [Nichole! Isn't this your boyfriend?]
Back at the hospital, Nichole sat bolt upright in bed upon seeing the photo of James and Sophie.
Why would Sophie suddenly go to her school?
