The atmosphere suddenly grew tense, and it was at this moment that Colt spoke up to break the ice, "Mr. Burke, how about I go get the car ready? You and Mrs. Burke should head back now. She's been waiting here for your surgery for quite a while."
"Alright, go get the car."
Sophie stood her ground, unmoving. "I'd rather not go."
"Mrs. Burke, the entrance is swarming with reporters. If you don't leave with us now, you might get photographed, which could lead to stories in the tabloids."
Colt had clearly laid out the potential danger. If Sophie stayed, she would definitely cause trouble for both Burker International and herself. She had just remarried James. James was now in the hospital and if the two of them parted ways, it was bound to stir up gossip.
"Then let's go together."
Sophie didn't insist. The three of them got into the car together, and as soon as they left the parking lot, they encountered a crowd of reporters outside.
The moment James' car pulled out, the reporters surged forward, snapping photos.
"Lose them."
"Yes, Mr. Burke."
Colt drove quickly, and soon, they had left the reporters far behind.
Colt asked, "Mr. Burke, your grandmother might still be at home."
"Haven't I already said to ask her to leave?"
"She... probably doesn't want to go."
Colt seemed troubled by his own words.
Asking Bea to make room for Sophie was obviously out of the question. After this incident, Bea had grown to despise Sophie.
"No matter, if she doesn't want to leave, she doesn't have to. It actually gives me an excuse not to stay at home."
She and James had already agreed to a divorce, and in a few days, the paperwork should be finalized. Naturally, they couldn't live together.
James' expression dimmed slightly.

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....
