Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 343

Harold had never mentioned his trip abroad to her.

The butler led Sophie upstairs, where she once again saw the man in the wheelchair.

On the second floor, Gordon was still sitting in the same spot on the terrace, a solitary figure.

Sophie approached Gordon and said, "Mr. Gordon, you wanted to see me?"

Gordon slightly raised his hand, and the butler promptly brought over a chair, placing it beside him.

At Gordon's gesture, Sophie, though reluctant, took a seat on the chair, instinctively wanting to keep some distance from Gordon.

Gordon's inherent aloofness made him seem unapproachable, and his smile, though rare, seemed chilling.

Sophie had heard of Gordon's cunning ways in both her past and present lives. Such a formidable figure would have dominated Devonport if not for his untimely demise.

"Ms. Sophie, I advise you against pursuing your current endeavor," Gordon suddenly spoke, his tone light yet clearly containing a warning.

Sophie believed her acquaintance with Gordon to be superficial, so she was puzzled by his sudden invitation and advice.

"Mr. Harold, I'm not sure what you mean," Sophie feigned ignorance, only to meet Gordon's penetrating gaze. Her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly averted her eyes as if an extra second would expose her thoughts to him.

"The Burke family may seem to be in decline, but its century-old foundation remains. Hundreds, if not thousands, of partners are willing to collaborate with Burke International. Even if they suffer a temporary setback, they can recover. Russell Enterprises..." Gordon paused, "S Corporation is a new power capable of inflicting a severe blow on Burke International, but engaging in a prolonged battle would be futile."

Sophie was taken aback. Gordon knew she held control of S Corporation.

Aside from a few close confidants, even James was unaware that her alias, Blake, controlled S Corporation. The Aldridge family had always maintained a low profile and were seldom involved in business rumors.

How did Gordon know? Could Colby have told him?
