Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Hearing this, Bea immediately stood up, her expression turning somewhat colder. "Do you even understand what you're saying?"

"Bea, I'm doing all of this for you and Burke International's sake. If Sophie were still alive, James would never give her up. Who knows what he might do for Sophie in the future?"

As Bea hesitated, Nichole feigned a sigh, exaggerating her concern. "Oh, James, the head of Burke International, actually went on some reality show. It's become a total joke in our circles. He really must be bewitched by Sophie, acting without considering the consequences. What will become of him..."

Nichole watched Bea's face fall.

Bea was so angry precisely because James had gone with Sophie to participate in that so-called reality show.

In their circle, actors were nothing more than tools for entertainment and money-making. James' reckless actions had made her lose face among the circle of high society ladies!

Now that Nichole had brought it up again, Bea was even more determined to get rid of Sophie.

Bea noted the calculation in Nichole's eyes and scoffed coldly, "You can't get rid of Sophie yourself, so you want me to do it. Don't think I don't know what you're plotting! But for James' sake, I agree. Just remember your place!"

If it weren't for Nichole coming to her with the Freeman family's entire fortune to negotiate, she would have never accepted Nichole back.

Bea spoke so plainly. Nichole quickly stood up and spoke softly, "Bea, I know I was wrong before, but now that we've put our past behind us and the Freeman family has already given you what you're due, you should trust me. I truly love James and would never do anything to harm him or the Burke family."

Bea grunted, "If there's nothing else, you can go."

"And Sophie?"

"I have my ways."

Nichole left with a smile.

Once Nichole had left, Bea called out to Marian, who had been watching from outside. "Marian, come in."

Marian, having been keeping an eye hurried in at Bea's call

is it time to turn off the

lights and rest?"

"No, go call Solana for me."

"Solana?"

Marian asked in confusion, "But, just yesterday you..."

"I have something to discuss with her. Just call her over. Don't worry about the rest."

"Yes."

Although Marian was puzzled, she did as Bea asked.

In the dead of night, Solana dressed quickly and hurried over to the Burke family home.

"Thank you for coming over so late to see me."

"What are you talking about? You're my aunt. If you call me, of course, I'll come."
