Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 958
Just as Angelo was scrambling for words, one of Colby's men burst in from outside. He hesitated for a moment when he spotted Sophie, then awkwardly sidled up to Colby, looking like he wanted to share something in private.
"Boss..."
Seeing everyone's curious gazes, Colby said, "No need to whisper, just say it."
"Yes, sir!" The man straightened up and reported, "The Burke mansion caught fire. The flames spread quickly, and the place is completely burned down!"
A heavy silence fell over the room.
Colby shot his man an icy look.
The man felt a shiver run down his spine.
Hadn't the boss just said there were no outsiders here?
While no one dared to break the silence, Angelo suddenly exclaimed, "The Burke mansion? On fire? Oh my God, that's huge! Wasn't Mr. Burke Mrs. Costello's ex-husband? We should definitely go check it out. If someone really died, we should at least help with the arrangements..."
Another awkward silence ensued.
Sandy shot an embarrassed glare at Angelo and said, "Brother, could you have picked a worse moment to bring that up?"
The Burke and Russell families were already at each other's throats, their feud was infamous.
Meanwhile, Devonport was still buzzing with the scandal of James's affair with a college student while he was married.
Sophie spoke up calmly, "The Burke family still has Bea in charge. Besides, as Mr. Pei mentioned, I'm the ex-wife. Handling the aftermath isn’t my responsibility."
