Sophie cto an abrupt stop.
James's voice echoed from behind her. "I heard you and Colby are getting married, so... congratulations and best wishes." "Thanks," Sophie replied without looking back and walked out of the conference room.
James watched her determined exit with a wry smile.

"She never cared about these things," James said, passing the share transfer agreement to Elodie. "Burke International is yours now. I hope you can handle it, Ms. Elodie." "I'm more than capable," Elodie replied. "If Sophie knew that taking over Burke International wasn't in her best interest, I wonder if she'd thank you for your sudden interference." James stayed silent.
Feigning pity, Elodie added, "Too bad, now she'll just think of you as a backstabber." James shot Elodie a glance and said, "Ms. Elodie, you don't need to worry about what's not your business." With that, James walked out of the conference room. Elodie wasn't bothered; she got what she wanted-the share agreement.
Outside Burke International, Sophie got into Colby's car.
"Saw someone go in just now," Colby mentioned.
Sophie knew he meant James but played dumb. "Who are you talking about?" Colby turned his head, "You know exactly who." "It was just about handing over the share agreement. Besides, I don't want him talking about Jenna." If it weren't for that, she wouldn't have bothered seeing James.
As Colby drove down a different road, Sophie asked, "Where are we going? This doesn't seem like the way back to Burke Estate." "We're going to try on wedding dresses." "Try on..." Sophie was taken aback.
Colby said, "The wedding is the day after tomorrow. Can't you think of anything other than work?" They had been on a vacation abroad for over a week and cback to deal with company matters. Sophie had completely forgotten about the wedding. "No wonder..." "Hmm?" "No wonder James wishedhappiness in my marriage." "..." Hearing James's name, Colby's expression turned cold. "We don't need his blessings to be happy." "Oh, go on!" Colby parked the car outside the Costello family's mansion. Sophie hadn't expected the wedding dress fitting to take place there.
As she got out of the car, Sophie took Colby's arm and whispered, "Lennon didn't move all the wedding dresses to your house, did he?" "He just had a special wedding dress closet prepared." Colby made it sound simple, which relieved Sophie. Thankfully, it wasn't anything crazy.
