Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 560

"But... the cameraman..."

"Don't worry about him."

James' casual remark left Sophie puzzled. "Where did you get the money?"

On their first day participating in the show, their phones were already turned in, and now the only numbers in James' phone were those issued by the show's team. They just had a few emergency contacts. "This is a property of the Burke family, so I don't have to spend money."

James' serious tone plunged Sophie into deep thought. How was she not aware that the Burke family's properties included a taxi service?

Soon enough, the taxi arrived at the beach. The sight of a taxi pulling up caught the production team off guard, and the director approached for a closer look, his expression somewhat puzzled. The director asked, "Did we arrange for a car?"

"No."

Sophie and James walked onto the beach one after the other, leaving the director scratching his head in frustration.

Why is this couple not playing by the rules?

"Where's Mrs. Burke and Mr. Burke's cameraman?"

The staff was even more troubled, saying, "We just got a call saying he got lost. It might take another half hour for him to get here."

The director sighed, gesturing dismissively, "I'll go talk to them."

The director approached Sophie and James and offered a sheepish smile. "Mrs. Burke, Mr. Burke, did you enjoy your time together yesterday?"

"...It was alright." Sophie said those words against her better judgment.

'Alright' meant that at least they had spoken to each other.

"Acceptable." James said coolly.

'Acceptable' meant that Sophie hadn't shown any particular dislike towards him.

Sensing the unfamiliarity between the two, the director explained, "This show is about a divorced couple living together, reminiscing about the past to uncover and resolve their issues. This is a major highlight of our program. Once the cameraman arrives, we can start the next part of the shoot. It's best if we avoid taking taxis in the future and take public buses, walk, or bike instead."

The director cautiously observed their reactions before asking, "Is that... okay?"

Sophie readily agreed, "That's fine."

James simply stated, "If she's fine with it, so am I."

"That's good." The director patted his chest in relief, grateful they were not difficult to deal with.

Half an hour later, the cameraman arrived, panting and almost in tears upon seeing the director.

He was thrown into an unfamiliar place and left at a bus stop, but he managed to stumble his way here by bus. He wasn't opposed to taking taxis! He just hoped that next time Mr. Burke and Ms. Sophie decided to take a taxi, they would include him.

The shoot began with the director announcing through a megaphone, "The next task is to go fishing. As everyone knows, our island is rich in seafood, famously known as the Island of Seafood. You two will need to board a fishing boat to catch your meals for the day."

Sophie frowned slightly. "I don't like seafood."

Her remark caused some to suppress their laughter.

James said, "I'll get you something else."

The cameraman perfectly captured their quiet interaction, and everyone was oblivious to a black sedan parked a street away. A pair of binoculars was closely observing the two.
