NovelAppChapter 88 Jenna glared at Adler, who immediately clammed up.
*Alright, let's put this matter to rest. Il pretend I know nothing. Is that okay? Sophie didn't want to make things difficult for Adler and Jenna either.
Jenna nodded quickly, like a pecking chicken, and Adler's eyes twinkled with joy.

[Thank you for the blue cheese rollss. I mally like them, but please don't send them again.] Sophie pursed her lips. Sthings didn't need to be said too plainly, and she hoped Colby, being the clever man he is, would understand her hint.
In the evening, Jenna's new property launch was celebrated with a banquet at the Diamond Crest Hotel. Being somewhat a part of the Costello family, this event drew quite a crowd. In a stunning lake blue gown, Sophie caught everyone's attention simply by standing there.
"Sophie!" Jenna ran towards her in high heels, plunging into Sophie's arms for a big bear hug. Adler, trailing behind holding her dress, nearly couldn't keep up with Jenna's pace. "Slow down! You're in heels Jenna didn't care and exclaimed. "This property launch could makebillions. Why couldn't I start celebrating early?" "Right, right" Adler never dared to disagree with Jenna.
Sophie looked around but didn't see Colby anywhere. Perhaps he had seen her message and decided to back off. That was for the best. Suddenly, Sophie caught a glimpse of a familiar figure at the entrance. Nichole was wearing a white evening gown, and beside her, Burke International's General Manager, Gattlin, was eagerly saying, "Ms. Nichole, Mr. Burke couldn't make it today and askedto acquaint you with the place. He's very optimistic about this property and thinks it's a valuable learning opportunity for you to network." Nichole nodded. The Diamond Crest Hotel wasn't overly luxurious. Its decor was understated, and she found Gartlin's eagerness rather flattering.
Despite being upset over a report card, James hadn't given up on her. His sending her here must also be f be for her educational benefit.
At that moment, Nichole spotted Sophie and Jenna, and her face turned pale. She clearly remembered Jenna was part of the scircle as Adler and Colby.
Jenna saw Nichole too and frowned, asking, "Who invited her? She doesn't deserve to be on the Dennis family's turf." "It must have been James who sent her Sophie's tone was calm. After all, James doted on Nichole, and since Nichole had offended Jenna before, James probably wanted to give her a chance to apologize.
She hadn't expected James to consider so much for Nichole.

"The other woman is showing her face here? Jenna immediately told the security, "Get her out of here!" Nichole stepped forward immediately. "Ms. Jenna, it's my fault last tand I want to apologize." Nichole's voice was just enough for everyone around to hear Sophie knew Nichole was good at playing the fragile card to gain sympathy. She had seen this act before.
But Jenna was unimpressed, coldly saying, "No need for apologies. The i Dennis family does not welcsinamily someone who blurs the lines between night and wrong. Security, remove her!"
Hearing this, Nichole turned to Sophie with a look of pitiful appeal.
"Sophie, you know My ve Km not like that.
