Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 424

“Colt! Take her away!”

James' stance was firm, leaving Colt with no choice but to bravely step forward and say to Bea, “Madam, you really should—”

“Get lost!”

Bea shook off Colt's hand and strode up to Sophie, sneering, “Sophie, I know the Russell family has gone bankrupt, and you're desperate for money. But since you and James are already processing your divorce, let's clear the air here. As long as I'm around, you don’t get to enter the Burke family again! And as for the marital assets, don't expect to get a penny!”

“Grandmother!” Veins throbbed on James' forehead. He was clearly enraged.

Colt immediately said, “Madam, please, just go back. Don’t anger Mr. Burke any further!”

As Colt finished speaking, Sophie coldly said, “Fine, let's be clear then. Please have your beloved grandson sign the divorce papers as soon as possible. I've sent over a dozen copies already, and they were all torn to shreds by him. I'm not sure if he has a penchant for self-torture. I've made myself quite clear, yet he still refuses to divorce me.”

Bea, always concerned with the Burke family's reputation, found Sophie's words unbearable.

But quickly, she said, “You mean James refuses to divorce you? How amusing. Russell Enterprises is bankrupt, and yet you still act so high and mighty? I heard you've started training at Aldridge Global as a trainee. The esteemed Miss Russell, hailing from a prestigious family, has stooped to becoming a lowly actress. How utterly astonishing.”

Bea's mocking words infuriated James, who exclaimed, “Colt! Do you not want your job? Take her away right now!”

James publicly disregarded Bea's feelings, and Calla attempted to intervene. “James, Bea is just looking out for you, don’t—”

“This doesn’t concern you!”
