Chapter 268
Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
"Bea, James just said that Sophie has fallen into the sea. Could she possibly be...â
âShe's better off dead. That way, he can finally move on!â
Bea didnât believe that James would actually die over a woman. He couldnât die. She wouldnât allow it!
The coastal search and rescue team searched day and night for three days, but the ocean was vast. Despite expanding their search area, they still hadnât found any sign of Sophie.
Meanwhile, the Russell family had already received news of Sophieâs misfortune. Perry was as anxious as a cat on a hot tin roof, while only Jessica seemed overjoyed.
If Sophie was gone, any agreement Jessica had with her naturally wouldnât matter anymore. The future of the Russell family would belong to her and Isaac!
At that moment, Jessica watched the frantic Perry with a glint of coldness in her eyes.
'Perry, you were heartless to me and my son before. Iâm gonna get you back for that now.'
On the third day, James was in despair. No one could survive three days at sea.
Colt walked into the CEOâs office, and James immediately asked, âHave you found Sophie?â
Colt shook his head, saying, âNot yet.â
The light in Jamesâ eyes dimmed instantly, his complexion turning pale. These past few days, he had looked much more haggard than ever before.
Colt said, âMr. Burke, itâs been three days. Thereâs no hope left. Continuing the search is just a waste of resources, especially now that S Corporation is on the rise. We need to take action. You need to pull yourself together.â
âWho says itâs a waste of resources? Who says thereâs no hope?â Jamesâ eyes blazed with a fierce red. âKeep searching! Hire a professional search team if you must, but we have to find Sophie! Even if itâs just her body!â
Colt fell silent but finally nodded. âYes, Mr. Burke.â
James rubbed his temples, calming himself down after his outburst. âWhat about the kidnappers? Have they been caught?â
âTheyâve fled overseas. Our people canât find them. But theyâve got our counterfeit money. Disposing of so much fake money wonât be easy for them.â

Colt bowed his head lower. âIâm sorry, Mr. Burke.â
âMy home address and my personal phone number arenât known to just anyone. You need to investigate whoâs behind them thoroughly. They couldnât have taken Sophie so easily without inside help.â
âWeâre already on it. I believe weâll have results soon.â Just as Colt finished speaking, his phone rang.
He answered the call, and within seconds, his expression eased. âI got it!â
After hanging up, Colt turned to James with excitement. âMr. Burke, weâve found someone who had previous dealings with that group.â
James slammed his hand on the desk. âBring them here! Now!â
âYes!â
In no time, a group of people brought Katy into the CEOâs office at Burke International.
It was Katyâs first time seeing James. She observed the brooding man before her and felt uneasy. âWho are you people? Why have you brought me here? What do you want!â
