Bea knew exactly what to do, which was why she trusted that there wouldn’t be any drama at thiscrucial moment.
James stared at Sophie for a long time, unsure of what to say. Eventually, he simply stated, “I’ll havesomeone move your things back tomorrow. Grandma is coming back, and it wouldn’t look good for youto be living outside.”
“No need, I won’t be staying long.”
Sophie just left it at that. She was tired, and all she wanted now was some rest.
Without thinking, James reached out and grabbed Sophie’s arm, asking, “What do you mean by that?”

*James, is there even a point in asking that now? You know exactly what I mean.”
“Does it have to be this way?”
Sophie coldly replied, “What do you think?”
James remained silent. Sophie continued, “I’m not blaming you, but your affair with Nichole crossed aline during our marriage, giving me more than enough reason to divorce you. Even if it goes to court, Ihave my arguments. You should know how much you’ll have to pay me once we’re
divorced, right?”
James had probably never considered that she might one day file for divorce, so he hadn’t transferredhis assets after getting married. If they divorced, and he was at fault, she would receive a substantial
settlement.
“Believe it or not, that was an accident. I’ve cut off all contact with Nichole since that day…”
“At Palm’s Jewels, when you protected Nichole, was I just seeing things?”
James wanted to explain that he was just trying to upset her that day but couldn’t bring himself to say it.
Sophie said, “James, let’s just end this. Your favoritism towards Nichole has never changed; no matterwhat reasons you come up with
now, I’ll still divorce you.”

“Give me three months.”
“What?”
“Give me three months, and I’ll prove to you that you’re the only one in my heart.”
“James, you really don’t have to do that.”
“If after three months, I haven’t proven myself or haven’t moved you, I will willingly hand overeverything from the Burke family to you.”
Sophie was stunned.
James gripped her shoulders. He said with a serious tone, “I’m willing to bet everything on these threemonths. If you still wish to leave,
I’ll agree to the divorce and voluntarily give you all of the Burke family’s assets and wealth.”
Sophie had never seen such earnestness in James‘ eyes before. He wasn’t joking.
“James, you’re mad.”
Even if three months passed, she would never accept James. James was bound to lose this bet.
“I know I’ve made mistakes in the past and caused misunderstandings. Give me a chance, and I willstrive to be a good husband. I truly
love you.”
For a moment, Sophie saw the young boy James used to be in his eyes.
Perhaps James had long forgotten, but she would always remember the boy who squatted down, tookher hand, and walked her down
that road.
“Fine, I’ll give you this chance,” Sophie said coldly. “But let me tell you that no matter what you do, youwill definitely lose.”
