Upon hearing this, the room erupted in gasps.
"What the heck is James doing? Didn't he already sign a contract with Sophie?" someone exclaimed.
Adler was beside himself with rage. "How could he back out at the last minute?"
Sophie frowned, her mind racing.
Jenna, her face darkening, demanded, "James, explain yourself. Earlier you said..."
"Ms. Jenna," James interrupted coolly, "there are certain matters within the Dennis Group that can't be aired out in public, much like the previous CEO of the Jiang family stepping down. Would you care to elaborate on that?"
Jenna's face turned a shade paler at his words.
"It seems Ms. Jenna prefers not to discuss it," James continued, his tone icy. "Therefore, the affairs of Burke International are none of her concern."
His words carried a thinly veiled threat.
Sophie noticed the shift in Jenna's demeanor, and even Adler's expression soured.
James's strategy was clear: he wanted them to voluntarily give up their shares in Burke International!
Sandy, standing to the side and feeling bewildered, whispered to Angelo, "Why does this atmosphere feel so tense?"
"How should I know?" Angelo muttered back. "Devonport is a mess."
He couldn't help but be taken aback. Not seeing James for a few days, it seemed he had developed some new tricks. Wasn't the plan to transfer all Burke International shares to Sophie? Why the sudden change of heart?
Taking advantage of the distraction, Angelo subtly retreated to a corner.
Jenna, looking worse for wear, stumbled back, almost falling over.

Enjoying the story, to much victimising Sophie, they could at least try to target others. Hope at some point Sophie comes clean and forgives James and explain her view of loving the boy James was. Just so they both learn and move on. Really needs to be some consequences for the instigators instead of being let go. Sandy needs to see Vanessa is using her as a cover, and Sandy needs to wake up to herself, or be held responsible by her father for alienating the people she was supposed to make contact with. Hope the reporter brother is keeping an eye on what Vanessa and Odie are up to, and that he has he’s own justice in store. Hope he becomes like Reese a good partner. Hope James lives and finds he’s HEA. Need to put Nicole in prison , no release and several lifetimes , with all the evidence on the crimes she’s committed just to get her out of the way guilt free.
