In the afternoon, when Sophie got back to Burke Estate, she saw the maid cleaning up the messy living room.
"Did the Aldridge family get robbed?" Sophie asked, puzzled.
With the kind of security the Aldridge family had, a break-in seemed pretty unlikely.
"Mrs. Costello, thank goodness you're back!"
The maid looked a bit distressed as she approached Sophie and said, "Mr. Gordon asked to see you in the study as soon as you returned. He said it's urgent."
Knowing Gordon had something important to discuss, Sophie didn't waste any time and headed upstairs.
But when she opened the door, there was Rick standing there, holding a bill.
Rick looked serious. "Mrs. Costello, will that be card or cash?"
"Seriously?" Sophie forced a smile. "The boss called me back for this?"
Gordon was sitting at his desk, looking calm. "Even though our relationship is special, the six-figure damage Colby caused still needs to be settled."
Feeling a bit helpless, Sophie rubbed her forehead. "Fine, I'll pay by card."
After all, she had control over all of Colby's stuff, including his bank cards.
Sophie casually pulled out a black card to settle the bill. Hearing the hefty amount being charged still made her wince a bit.
She'd deal with Colby when she got back to her room!
"Mr. Gordon, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going now."
Just as Sophie was about to leave, Gordon suddenly asked, "Did you go see James?"
