Sophie handed the ring box back to James. "Give this to the girl you truly love. I'm tired of playing Mrs. Burke."
Then, Sophie turned and walked away, leaving James standing alone.
That evening, Sophie returned to her apartment, and the internet was already buzzing with news about the corporate rivalry between S Corporation and Burke International. Rumors had escalated from mere speculation to wild conjecture in just one night.
Some people said that Burke International was about to fall from power, and its position as the leading company in Devonport was no longer secure.
Others believed that the real power behind S Corporation was a high-profile figure, untouchable by James.
And there were those who speculated that James was actually planning a comeback to take down S Corporation.
Jenna watched the online news with glee.
Sophie leaned back on the couch, feeling helpless. "Your laughter is going to bring the bed down. Keep it down, or you'll disturb the neighbors below."
"But don't you find it hilarious? I'd love to see the look on James' face when he reads these stories."
Jenna laughed until she was nearly in tears.
James, always so prideful, was now rumored to be someone else's subordinate.
"If it were me, I'd be so mad I wouldn't leave my bed for days."
Seeing Sophie lost in thought, Jenna asked, "Did James suspect something when you went back to the Burke family today?"
"He was suspicious, but not in the way I expected."
"What do you mean, not in the way you expected? How can suspicions differ?" Jenna hugged a pillow, ready to dive into the story.
