Chapter 424 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.

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 concemed 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 concem you!" James spared no one's feelings. He immediately made a call and sternly said into the phone, "Have your men escort Bea and any irrelevant parties out." The next moment, security guards approached and surrounded Bea and Calla.
The manager stepped forward and said, "Please don't make this difficult for me. Just leave." Bea frowned, "What? If I don't leave, you'll resort to physical measures?" "We wouldn't, but we might have to carry you out, which would be undignified for everyone." "Grandma Bea_" Calla tugged at Bea's sleeve. Bea knew her grandson was furious and could only snort coldly before turning to leave with Calla.
Watching this unfold, Sophie felt like she was the protagonist in this .

"No need to explain. I know this wasn't your doing." Sophie turned to James, pausing before saying, "But you did fulfill a dream of mine."

Sophie didn't look up, simply stating, "I had a dream where you were m especially cold to me, never willing to spend a single birthday with me. But today... I still want to thank you"
