"Isn't that right?" Elodie said, her eyes gleaming. "If I'm not mistaken, Ms. Sophie plans to use Aryan's scandal to bring down Reeves International. I saw this coming, and honestly, it doesn't matter if Aryan has to cough up all the money he made for the company. What I really want is Burke International." "You can have Burke International. The contract I signed with James earlier? I can tear it up. But you must not harm Jenna or any of my friends." Elodie chuckled, "Relax, I'm a woman of my word. If Ms. Sophie isn't convinced, we can make it official with a contract." "Fine, let's make it official. You can have Burke International, but don't get too cocky, Ms. Zhou. Even without Burke International, I can still take you down." Elodie shrugged, casually saying, "Well, let's see about that." With that, Sophie turned on her heel and walked away. Elodie watched her retreating figure, a smug smile playing on her lips.
Meanwhile- "Whose side are you on, anyway?" Angelo demanded, cornering James in a secluded spot.

"Seriously, man! Whose side are you on? And who is this Elodie now? Don't tellyou've fallen for another one?" Angelo's frustration was palpable.
James, looking exhausted, replied, "Don't ask questions you shouldn't. Remember, in Devonport, we don't know each other." Seeing James about to leave, Angelo quickly blocked his path. "You have to tell me. I need to know who my future mentor's wife will be! I can't back the wrong team! Besides, Sophie has been good to me. I think she's genuinely nice. But Elodie? She seems tricky, like someone you don't want to mess with. What's going on?" "Enough. Neither of them will be your future mentor's wife," James said darkly. "Sophie and Colby are about to leave. Take your sister and get out of here, and don't let them suspect anything." With that, James strode away, leaving Angelo bewildered.
Neither of them? Then why is James backing Sophie? This makes no sense! "I don't get it... not one bit," Angelo muttered to himself. Just then, Sandy found him.
"Bro! I've been looking for you everywhere! Why are you still here? Sophie and the others have already left!" "They drove back? How are we supposed to get home?" "No idea," Sandy said, looking completely lost.
She was used to being chauffeured everywhere. If she wasn't out shopping, her feet rarely touched the ground. How would she know how to get back? Back at Burke Estate, Jenna was still visibly distracted.

Sophie thought back to what Jenna had told her about Freddie Jenna's father and the former CEO of Dennis En.
Group, who had killed Jenna's mother Jenna had mentioned
Freddie had paid with his life, and she had inherited all the shares of Dennis Group as a result. But Jenna hadn't gone into detail about how Freddie had died.
Even though Jenna hadn't said much, Sophie could piece it together from Jenna's reaction today. "Jenna..."
"Don't say anything. I was out of line today," Jenna said, her face pale but managing a weak smile.' a weak smile. "Sophie, you don't have manayo worry about me. James may be despicable, but my conscience is clear!"
