Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 438

Julian frowned deeply. "What does it have to do with you?"

In his memory, he and Shirley were hardly acquaintances, at most neighbors, yet Shirley seemed to deliberately remind him of family matters, suggesting what he should do.

Julian shook off Shirley's hand, clearly resisting any contact with her.

Shirley was rejected and stood there flushing and embarrassed. Johnny walked over, having overheard Julian's harsh words, and immediately said, "Julian went too far. How can he talk to a girl like that? Don't worry, I'll have a word with him!"

Johnny followed Julian, but his words only insulted Shirley's pride even more.

Shirley found Sophie, who was practicing her dance moves in the studio. As Shirley approached, she attempted to slap Sophie, but Sophie blocked her, asking, "Have you lost your mind?"

Shirley had always been the calmest among them, but for some reason, she lashed out this time.

"Shameless! Seducing Julian is over the line!"

Shirley tried to strike again, but Sophie firmly grabbed her wrist, saying, "I have no clue what you're talking about. Are you jealous?"

"You!" Sophie hit a nerve, and Shirley's face turned sour.

"So, I was right." Sophie let go of Shirley's hand and said, "When you like someone, you feel the need to fight for them yourself. If you like him, you should tell him directly and show your feelings, not take it out on me."

Shirley coldly replied, "What do you know? How much do you understand about the situation of Julian's family? His family doesn't allow him to date. I'd advise you to stay away from Julian!" "And what exactly are you to Julian?"

Sophie, genuinely puzzled, asked, "Are you his sister? His cousin? A relative? Or perhaps, his girlfriend? His wife?"

"I..." Shirley was speechless.

Sophie continued, "See, you have no claim to him, yet here you are, warning others in his name. It seems you're the one who's truly ridiculous."

Shirley was shamed, turned, and left the studio.

The trainees outside, unaware of what had transpired, came in asking, "Even the usually approachable team leader couldn't stand you, Sophie. You really are something."

"I've got more skills than you; no need for you to mention it. Instead, think about how to catch Mr. Ricardo's eye during his inspection this afternoon."

Sophie's sharp retort left Jean fuming, but Sophie, wiping off with a towel, walked out, hoping her direct response would keep the female trainees busy enough to prevent Ricardo from bothering her and Julian later.

The trainees thought about Sophie's words and, indeed, dressed to impress that afternoon. Each tried their best to apply the most flattering makeup and wear their most attractive outfits. Ricardo, standing inside the studio, felt as if he'd entered an upscale club.

Mr. Devin, observing the well-prepared female trainees, couldn't help but cough lightly when he saw his own daughter among them, dolled up as well. He said, "Wendy, come here and meet Mr. Ricardo."
