Female Novelhapter 423
"Happy Birthday, Sophie."
Than..."
Sophie hadn't finished her sentence when Bea's voice carried over from outside the mall, "Booking the entire mall, what a grand gesture indeed."
Bea approached, her entourage of bodyguards clearing a path for her, quickly surrounding the place.
Bystanders, clueless about the ongoing drama, gathered around, curious about what was unfolding.
The faint smile in Sophie's eyes vanished at the sight of Bea.
Bea looked at Sophie coldly and said, "Ms. Sophie, weren't you the one clamoring for a divorce from my grandson? What's this now? Did you enchant my grandson to throw you a lavish birthday party? Now that Russell Entertainment has gone bankrupt, do you want to crawl back to the Burke family? Dream on!"
"Grandma!"
James' face darkened.
Colt rushed back from outside and, seeing the scene, his expression turned extremely grim.
Who would have thought Bea would be so assertive, going as far as to check James' bank records and then finding her way here?
"Bea, this is a public place; let's discuss this back home."
Colt tried to reason with Bea but was met with a cold glance. "You're really a loyal dog by James' side, aren't you? Supporting him in everything he does."
1. Colt, feeling ashamed, could only stand aside.
James stepped forward and said, "Grandma, this was all my doing. I insisted on giving Sophie this birthday celebration; she has nothing to do with it."
"What a thing to say, as if she has nothing to do with it! Have you lost your mind? You've spent so much money to please a woman who treats you this way! Have you forgotten what she said about you in the media? Have you forgotten how she embarrassed the Burke family in public?"
Bea spoke with disappointment, "Now that Russell Entertainment is bankrupt, she's back to seduce you, hoping to use your status and wealth to rise again. Don't you understand? How could the Burke family have such a foolish descendant!"novelbin
James frowned and said, "Grandma, it does not matter what Sophie thinks. I don't care whether she's using me or doesn't love me. I only want her in my life. The Mrs. Burke title will always belong to her."
"James, are you out of your mind?" Calla stepped forward, pointing at Sophie behind James. "This woman is clearly after your wealth. How can you be with someone like her?"
"Who I'm with is none of your business."
James' gaze turned colder, and Calla involuntarily stepped back.
The crowd's gaze towards Sophie became more peculiar.
Sophie simply placed the flowers she held onto a nearby gift box and said lightly, "Mr. Burke, thank you for the birthday surprise you prepared for me today. Please have Colt send me the details later. Ill purchase them."
"Sophie..."
"Hmph, that's for the best!" Bea coldly said, "Since divorce has been brought up, let's not have any morec Om interactions. And don't even think about getting close to my grandson again! Let alone having my grandson spend a penny on you!"
James' expression turned cold as he said, "Grandma, it's time for you to go back"
"What? James, are you going to m
lecture me too?"
"Colt! Take her away!"
