I've got something else to take care of, so I need to leave early." "But, can you really leave such an event early?" Sophie glanced at James, who was still chatting with Reece, and said, "TII sneak out" After finishing her sentence, Sophie downed a glass of red wine, handed the empty glass to Julian, and then took the opportunity when no one was paying attention to Nft her dress and make a run for it.
Julian wanted to call Sophie back, but she was too fast, disappearing from the Burke family's mansion in the blink of an eye. Fifteen minutes later, a sports car sped up to the mansion.

"Yeah, Sophie, did that jerk James threaten you? Don't be afraid. With Colby here, he wouldn't dare touch you." Adler chimed in from the side.
Sophie replied, "He didn't threaten me. We made a deal." "What kind of deal?" *1 signed an agreement with James. The divorce papers are already signed, but we have to pretend to be a loving couple in public to restore the image of Burker International.” Hearing this, Jenna angrily said, "James is really something, playing such a smart game. He knew he had to divorce you and decided to use you to make a gain!" Adler frowned and said, "Ms. Sophie, have you thought about how you're going to explain this to Colby?" Colby and Sophie's relationship had been clear to Adler and Jenna for a while now. The two were obviously in a serious relationship.

"I haven't figured out how to tell him yet, but this is the only chance I have to get a divorce." Sophie believed Colby had approached James about the divorce, but James was not one to back down easily. Both being dominant figures, neither would bow to the other. She decided that this matter had to be handled her way.
