"Colt, please."
Rick was practically pushing Colt out the door, leaving him no choice but to give in. "Alright, I'll talk to Bea. Ms.
Sophie, Mr. Colby, could you please cwith me?" Meanwhile, at the Burke family estate-
"What? Colby is coming too?"
Bea's face turned dark as soon as she got the call.
Colby had always been a thorn in the side of the Burke family, even marrying Sophie, whom they considered
damaged goods, making them the butt of jokes!
Now, she was dead set against letting Colby step foot in their home.
"Bea, please, let's keep our cool."
If Colby couldn't cin, they wouldn't get anywhere with Sophie.
Hearing this, Bea took a deep breath. "Fine, Sophie is ruthless! I'll let him in!"
After hanging up, Bea swallowed her pride. If it meant getting Burke International back under family control,
what was a little humiliation?
"Bea..."
Marian stepped forward with a cup of tea, trying to calm her. "Please, relax, ma'am... It's good that Ms. Sophie is
willing to cback. We can't let the company slip into outsiders’ hands."

Marian suggested, "Bea, if Ms. Sophie hadn't divorced Mr. Burke back then..."
"Are you saying we should've let that flirtatious woman stay as the lady of Burke International? Over my dead
body!"
Even in her fury, Bea knew Sophie was no longer the compliant girl she used to be.
Getting Sophie to give up her forty-five percent share wasn't going to be easy. Soon enough, Colt arrived with
Sophie and Colby at the Burke family home. Coming back to the Burke estate after such a long tfelt surreal

Colt led them inside, where Bea was seated on the living room sofa with hot tea already prepared on the table.
