You Say...... In a way. She is rich and lives with a man she does not love. The one she does love, she will never see again. In turn the womanizer got played by a man eater. He experienced how one of his dates felt after he kicked them out of his apartment.
When did the film express how she felt about her current boyfriend, If a guy can get a woman to do what she did, I would think she was in love with him. The plan was if sex was necessary, she would do it this means she would have done this with anyone to achieve there goal. I felt in the end she did not like what she had to do with a man like him, he in her eyes was blinded, and her great sex, and persona worked to make him that way as she knew he would let them go, turns out she was right in the end. She felt guilty about what she had done not sad for getting rich and them achieving there goals at his demise. They both are better without each other as he will love someone and stop using woman, and she gets her new life style.
I am not tying to change how you saw the film but giving you more to chew on.

The boyfriend knew something was up when he found the two of them kissing. That led him to making that big show that ended up with Sonia getting shot.
If this was a regular ploy, with Sonia being the siren, than being bothered by Sonia's act shouldn't have occurred to him. But it did. So he had suspicions.
And the love scene before she runs away was Sonia acting on the feelings that were building. She found out it was real but could not stay because of the heist.

Where do I start.....It was needed for him to feel as he did, It may not have started out that way but they were shifting on the move. I am not saying she did not have feelings for him, as she did, but she felt sorry for him being the one she absolutely had to get in her corner by any means needed. She is SURE he will not turn them in because she knew how he felt. You are vastly under rating what had to be done and are seeing the love making as a admittance of true love when it really was an act of getting his love for the plan to work. MAYBE A ROMP IN THE SACK FOR GOOD MEASURE, OBVIOUSLY IT WAS BETTER THAN EXPECTED.
Film makers are very good in getting romantics to see that side and are equally good at getting others to see it another way. Some of the times it has nothing to do with true love yet romantics feel it did. As the female leads job is for just that, but there are several other things floating that are more important to what the filmmaker is truly saying.
In this case here we have a woman whom will do anything with her partner to achieve there goals yet she is in sadness that this guy was a good man whom she cared for. Sort of feeling remorse as how it played out. Yes she cared for him but sleeping with a guy, liking sex with him does not have to be a whirlwind romance to some women.
There is no reason for the director to show how she feels or interacts with her boyfriend because it is spelling it out in what she is doing with him, She is a woman who if not for him would have loved to be with the ex-cop. It's all in the reflection at the end, he was a good one who she will remember. No more no less. They both moved on.
