Chapter 433

The next day, Sophie was chauffeured back to Aldridge Global in Colby's luxury car.

Rumors about Sophie being taken away by James the day before had already spread like wildfire among the trainees.

The incident at the Eastwood Mall had also made the news last night. It had become the hot topic of conversation for all the trainees during their breaks.

"Oh my, some people just don't know their own weight, nor do they realize their status. Thinking of getting back into high society isn't that simple, is it?"

"Did I you all see the car that dropped her off today? Tsk tsk. looks like she's got a hefty sponsor."

"A bankrupt heiress. What else could she do but act like this?"

Several people whispered among themselves, but Sophie was unfazed.

Wendy approached Sophie and said, "Looks like Mr. Burke's investment in Aldridge Global is going to fall through, huh? Sophie, what's the use of stubbomly refusing to divorce? In the end, you won't gain anything, will you?"

Sophie raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Don't play dumb with us. Everyone knows Russell Enterprise is bankrupt now, and you're eager to reconcile with Mr. Burke. But with your status, the chances of you returning as Mrs. Burke are slim, especially if Bea doesn't approve. You can forget about turning your fortunes around"

Wendy was particularly upset seeing her own father so eager to please James yesterday.

They were trainees at the same place, and Sophie still carried the title of Mrs. Burke, commanding respect from others.

Another trainee chimed in, "Yeah, remember how you were so sure about divorcing Mr. Burke? And yet, it's been so long, and we've seen no divorce. It's clear to us all that your divorce threat was just a ploy to force Mr. Burke to abandon his pregnant mistress."

"Alas, what a pity. Mr, Burke has countless girls available to step in. I heard Bea has already chosen Miss Calla as the next Mrs. Burke, It might be better to divorce sooner. Maybe Mr. Burke will take pity on you and leave you a sum of money."

They mockingly looked at Sophie.

"You're right. I also hope the divorce happens soon." Sophie left them with that remark and went to practice new moves.

Sophie's attitude irked Wendy and her group.

*She's pretending! Clearly, she doesn't want a divorce, yet she acts all high and mighty."

"Let her be. Without the title of Mrs. Burke, she's nothing!"

"We'll just wait for Miss Devins to become the next Mrs. Burke and watch Sophie cry and regret."

Sophie wasn't concerned. She doubted Bea would let Calla become Mrs. Burke.

Bea was highly selective and wanted a granddaughter-in-law from a prestigious family, preferably one with a legacy like the Russell family.

The Devins family's minor status could be used occasionally but would never be officially recognized.

Just then, Skye pushed the door open and said, "Mr. Ricardo is here for an inspection. Everyone, come out."

"Mr. Ricardo? novelbin

Some lit up with excitement.

Ricardo, known for his deep love for Nichole, had already won over y won overam legion of female fans who were eager to meet this legendary domineering CEO.

Skye spoke indifferently. This is a e

one-time opportunity so get dressed and come out."

The training room instantly buzzed with activity.
