StarNovelChapter 518 The atmosphere suddenly grew tense, and it was at this moment that Colt spoke up to break the ice, "Mr. Burke, how about I go get the car ready? You and Mrs. Burke should head back now. She's been waiting here for your surgery for quite a while." "Alright, go get the car" Sophie stood her ground, unmoving, "I'd rather not go "Mrs. Burke, the entrance is swarming with reporters. If you don't leave with us now, you might get photographed, which could lead to stories in the tabloids." Colt had clearly laid out the potential danger. If Sophie stayed, she would definitely cause trouble for both Burker international and herself. She had just remarried James. James was now in the hospital and if the two of them parted ways, it was bound to stir up gossip.
"Then let's go together" Sophie didn't insist. The three of them got into the car together, and as soon as they left the parking lot, they encountered a crowd of reporters outside.

"Lose them." "Yes, Mr. Burke' Colt drove quickly, and soon, they had left the reporters far behind.
Colt asked. "Mr. Burke, your grandmother might still be at home" "Haven't I already said to ask her to leave?" "She... probably doesn't want to go." Colt seemed troubled ed by his own words.
Asking Bea to make room for Sophie was obviously out of the question. After this incident, Bea had grown to despice Sophie.
"No matter, if she doesn't want to leave, she doesn't have to. It actually givesan excuse not to stay at home." She and James had already agreed to a divorce, and in a few days, the paperwork should be finalized. Naturally, they couldn't live together.

Sophie approached James' side and addressed Bea, "Bea, James has just suffered such a severe injury. He needs to rest. We're going upstairs now." It was only then that Bea noticed Sophie, who had returned with James. Suddenly, she remembered the Devins family coming over to demand payment earlier that day, and she couldn't help but flare up Sophie smiled and said, "Why such a face? It's almost as if you're not happy to seeback." "How could I be unhappy about your return?” Bea's sarcastic tone made James frown, "Grandma, Sophie has been by my side waiting foroutside the operating room. She's tired, too. I've asked Manan to pack your things so you can go back to your own house." At this, Bea's face twisted in pain. "James, are you really casting aside your own grandmother? Just now, the Devins family cto demand payment! They said you were the one who delivered the evidence to them! I've raised you since you were a child. How could you treat your own grandmother this way?" Bea was on the verge of tears, looking like a forsaken old woman.
James had heard such words too many times to count. He said sternly, "Grandma, you ruined Ms. Calla's reputation. It's only right to offer her scompensation, I won't get involved in this matter
"James!" Bea pointed at Sophie and accused, "Is it really you who won't get involved, or is this woman m stopping you from doing sor Sophie, standing aside, was suddenly dragged into the conversation.

"Til be staying right here tonight! Who's gonna makeleave!" Bea turned and stormed back to her room:
