Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 248

Bea initially invited Calla over just to make Sophie feel insecure. She did not actually intend for Calla to end up in James' bed.

This time, Calla had overstepped.

Just as Calla was about to give up, Bea suddenly spoke up. "But this time only, you can go check on him for me. If James asks, just say it was my idea."

Calla looked up incredulously, seemingly surprised that Bea was actually letting her go see James.

Bea said indifferently, "Well, what are you waiting for?"

"Thank you!"

Calla left the house beaming with joy as if she had been granted a pardon.

Bea watched Calla's cheerful departure with a sneer. The Devins family was indeed of modest means, but it was precisely such daughters from modest families that were easy to control.

Since Sophie was so indifferent to the position of Mrs. Burke, it was only right to give her a reminder in due time. There were plenty of women who wished to marry into the Burke family.

Sophie was not the only choice.

Sophie had arrived at the Regent Hotel, where James had reserved the best spot in the lobby for its view. Everyone present at the Regent Hotel that day was James' business associate.

As soon as Sophie walked in, she caught the attention of everyone there. She wore a rose-pink evening gown, with her long, curly hair draped to one side. When James turned around and saw Sophie, his thoughts wandered far away.

It had been a long time since he had seen Sophie dressed up like this. The last time he was this stunned was at the land auction, where he discovered that the always plainly-dressed Sophie could look so beautiful.

"Is this Mrs. Burke? She truly is a match for you, Mr. Burke."

"A match made in heaven, indeed!"
