Chapter 283 But to his surprise, he still couldn't match a fraction of Bea's cunning.
Once upon a time, Bea was very fond of Sophie, but that was only because Sophie was of use to her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNow that Sophie was gone, Bea had taken a liking to Nichole, whom she previously despised, simply because Nichole was carrying the Burke family's child.
For the first time, James felt a deep loathing for what his family had become.
James was still standing motionless. Bea, somewhat puzzled, smiled and said, "James, what are you still doing here? Go upstairs and rest. Nichole and I can handle things here." It seemed Bea had everything under control. James' voice was cold and ruthless. "Since you like to rest in this house so much, I leave the house to you" Bea didn't quite catch James' drift, but he had already turned and left.
Nichole couldn't help but speak with a sense of hurt, "Grandma, is James angry?" "Don't worry about him. Once he's cooled down, he'll cback on his own." Bea's expression was indifferent. Ever since James was young, she had taught him how to mask his emotions. However, Sophie's arrival had changed James, making him unpredictably emotional, James had run away from hwhen he was younger, but in the end, he always cback with his tail between his legs. He knew that without Burke International, he was nothing in the outside world.
Outside the Burke estate, Colt was taken aback to see James leaving the house. "Mr. Burke...
"Back to the office." "Yes." As Colt drove James, James coldly ordered, "Suppress all the false rumors about Sophie's death, intercept all invitations to Sophie's funeral." "Mr. Burke, that might be difficult." James frowned slightly, and Colt continued, "I just got sinternal news. Before organizing the funeral, Bea had already contacted all the company's senior executives. After falling out with the Russell family, Bea is eager to sever ties with the Russells by holding a funeral and going through the divorce as the best course of action." As James remained silent, Colt added, "Although Bea isn't managing the Burke family's business now, she's still the eldest in the Burke family. Her words carry more weight..." James' voice grew colder. "I am the one who controls the Burke family. I make all decisions. If they don't want to listen to me, then they don't need to stay at Burke International any longer" Colt saw James' grim expression and knew he was upset. He said, "Mr. Burke, Bea's decisions undoubtedly benefit the family. The executives see this, which is why they didn't reject her proposal. If we start infighting now, Burke International will be indeed in danger" The company had been facing internal and external troubles recently and couldn't withstand much more turbulence. They needed a swift response, or the century-old business would collapse under James' watch, Now, even you won't listen to me?"
