James was a businessman who had been calling the shots in Devonport for years. If he couldn't handle the police, he wouldn't deserve to be the head of Burke International.
It seemed this time, James wouldn't be implicated.
"Guys, please come with us to the station," the police officers said, their tone much friendlier, but the outcome was not what James had hoped for.
James frowned, and Colt said coldly, "Hasn't your chief informed you about the situation?"
"The chief has briefed us, but we still need you to come to the station for a statement," they replied.
The stance of the police was clear.
James quickly turned his gaze to Colby. Was Colby the one causing trouble?
Sophie furrowed her brows as well. She didn't know that Colby's influence had already penetrated Devonport.
In her past life, Colby had only established himself in Devonport three years later. How could he have such a significant influence now?
"We are just doing our job. Please, Mr. Burke, don't make this difficult for us," the officers said before gesturing for them to follow.
They had no choice but to go to the station.
James glared at Colby, "You really have some tricks up your sleeve."
"You are one to talk," Colby retorted, escorting Sophie out.
Two police officers escorted James in the middle, surrounded by reporters outside the hotel. From the moment James came out, the flashlights never stopped.
"Mr. Burke! We heard you were accused of kidnapping and assaulting your wife. Is that true?"
"Mr. Burke, Ms. Sophie mentioned divorce at a funeral recently. Is that due to a disagreement between you?"

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. More about what’s up with Gordon....
