Chapter 300

When Jessica couldn’t spot any signs of heartbreak or shock on Sophie’s face, she awkwardly commented from the sidelines, “Well, that figures.

Everyone says Colby’s as cold-hearted as they come. And Sophie, you have already been through a marriage. How could he possibly...”

Sophie gave Jessica a chilly glance that sent shivers down her spine.

With a bland tone, Sophie remarked, “If I’m not mistaken, you and Uncle Perry are also on your second marriage, aren’t you? How did you manage to enter the Russell family? Seems you’ve forgotten.”

“I...” Jessica was at a loss for words.

Standing up, Sophie said, “We are both women. We should be nice to each other. Jessica, you should really watch your words.”

“Yes, yes, you’re right. My apologies, I misspoke,” Jessica hurriedly agreed.

Now that Sophie practically ruled the Russell household, Jessica could not provoke her further.

Sophie coldly instructed, “There’s work waiting for me at the office. I’ll be leaving now. The table’s a mess. Please clean it up.”

Sophie lazily adjusted her blouse, then strutted out of the Russell family’s grand entrance in her high heels.

Watching Sophie’s retreating figure, Jessica waited until she was sure Sophie had left before glancing at the cluttered table with disdain. “Sophie!

Treating me like a servant now?”

This couldn’t go on. If Sophie truly divorced James, it would mean the Russell family had thoroughly alienated the Burkes.

Jessica had to find a way to prevent Sophie and James from divorcing.

After the merger, Sophie’s appearance in S Corporation was as normal as it could be. To the rest, she was still seen as the Russell family’s lady.

Arriving at her office, Sophie sank into her chair, feeling somewhat exhausted.

Tricia had been waiting for a while, "Ms. Sophie, there’s been movement from the Burke family, but it’s all within our control. Do you want to counter?”

Sophie’s thoughts drifted. Noticing, Tricia asked, “Ms. Sophie?”

Snapping back, Sophie asked, “What did you just say? I didn’t catch that.”

“I was saying the Burke family has made a move. Should we deal with them?”

Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)

Chapter 299 “Not for now.”

“No? But this means many of Russell Enterprises’ projects will have to be put on hold.”

“James hardly has the funds to keep going. Let him waste his resources on Russell Enterprises. It’s no skin off my back. Besides, Burke International is about to make a significant payout soon.”

Tricia was puzzled. “A significant payout from Burke International? Ms. Sophie, how do you know?”

“That’s not important. What matters is that the Burke family is on the brink of collapse.”

Sophie didn’t divulge to Tricia that in her past life, a construction project of Burke International suffered a severe accident with a worker falling from the building. Iit was initially settled with a small compensation, but later, it’s revealed to be a substandard construction, leading to a costly rebuild and resulting in significant losses for Burke International.

This event wasn’t a big deal for Burke International in her past life, but presently, it woul be a massive blow.

She had been closely monitoring this project of the Burke family, and everything was going on as she expected.

Soon, when this comes to light, James would hardly have the capacity to challenge the Russell family.

This would save her a lot of trouble.

“Ding—’

Tricia’s phone chimed. She quickly pulled it out, glanced at it, then hurriedly stuffed it back into her pocket.

Tricia worked closely with Colby, and Sophie was unaccustomed to seeing her flustered. Casually, Sophie asked, “Something happened?”

Tricia stammered, “No, nothing.”

Sophie extended her hand, “Let me see.”
