Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 285

On the day of the funeral, Nichole wore a simple black dress. Her stomach was still flat, but she intentionally protruded it, eager to let everyone know she was carrying the future of the Burke family.

Bea was greeting the arriving guests, but James was nowhere to be seen.

Turning to Nichole beside her, Bea inquired, “Where's James?”

Nichole shook her head, replying, “I haven’t seen him at all this morning.”

It wasn't long before Colt hurried over, saying to Bea, “Madam, Mr. Burke has said he won't be attending today.”

“He's not coming? How could that be possible?”

Given that James and Sophie's divorce had not yet been finalized, they were still a loving couple to the public eye. How could a husband be absent at his wife's burial?

What would everyone think?

Frowning, Bea declared, “Go fetch James immediately. Tell him it’s my command. If he doesn’t show up today, he'll no longer be my grandchild!”

“Yes.”

Colt quickly departed.

“Who is that woman with Bea?”

“Don’t you know? That's the student Mr. Burke took under his wing, rumored to be carrying Mr. Burke’s child. She's just waiting to give birth before they could wed.”

“Mrs. Burke has just passed, yet the Burke family carries on so heartlessly.”

Suddenly, a commotion arose from the crowd.
