Chapter 458 Vanessa was still nervously watching Shirley, waiting for Shirley to plunge the sharp knife into Sophie's neck.

However, the knife in Shirley's hand dropped.

As soon as Shirley ceased her threats, security immediately rushed over to pull her away.

Sophie took two steps back, and James hurried forward, Inspecting Sophie for injuries, only to discover a notable red mark on Sophie's collarbone At that moment, James froze.

Sophie adjusted her clothes and said, Tm alright, thank you, Mr. Burke." Sophie and James kept a safe distance, but Vanessa's expression was far from pleasant. Her gaze was fixed on Shirley, who had been apprehended.

Why hadn't Shirley's knife pierced Sophie's neck? Shirley coldly looked back at Vanessa as if seeing right through Vanessa's vile intentions.

A flicker of panic crossed Vanessa's face. She had never considered what would happen if Sophie didn't die and Shirley implicated her Now that Shirley hadn't harmed Sophie, her words, whether accusatory or not, would raise suspicions and might alert Sophie to the truth. “Mr. Burke, what should we do with her?" James spoke coldly to the security. "Take her away to the police station.

"Wait," Sophie interrupted. "Leave her. I want to speak to her later." Sophie's gaze unintentionally rested on Vanessa.

Vanessa's heart skipped a beat, sensing from Sophie's look that she might already know Shirley was acting under instructions.

"Let's do as Xes no se James had Shirley taken backstage, but Vanessa becuneasy and approached with concern. "Mrs. Burke, are you alright? Are you hurt?" When Vanessa reached for her hand, Sophie merely glanced at it and then withdrew her hand, saying. Thank you for your concern." "Cwith me." James took Sophie away.

Standing not far off, Ricardo watched the scene with a slight frown. His assistant asked, "Mr. Ricardo, the filming has stopped. Should we head back?" With the chaos that had ensued, they certainly couldn't continue filming today.

Ricardo took a deep breath and said, "You go and investigate. I want results tonight." "Yes, Mr. Ricardo.

Meanwhile, James led Sophie to an empty corridor, where Sophie asked, "Is there something you want to discuss with me, Mr. Burke?" "Why did you suddenly askto withdraw funding yesterday at lunch?” "You didn't know why but withdrew the funding anyway" "Because you askedto." Looking into James' eyes, Sophie involuntarily averted her gaze. “I just felt the project would lose money, so I suggested you cut your losses early, nothing more." "You knew about today's incident beforehand, didn't you?" James' tone was certain.

Sophie smiled as James "If you think so, then perhaps." "Sophie, can't you tellthe truth just once?” James reached out, gently lifting Sophie's collar, revealing the prominent red mark on her neck. As a man, he clearly know what it signified.

Sophie frowned, pulling her collar back. If there's nothing else, Mr. Burke, I be leaving." "Is it Colby?" James asked quietly.

Sophie didn't intend to hide it from James. She calmly said, "I hope we can finalize our divorce soon." Suddenly, James felt a tightness in his chest, as if pierced by a man needles, the pain making it hard to breathe.

"Do we have to end this way?" Sophie stopped and turned, leaving James with just her silhouette. She coldly delivered a harsh truth. “James, I don't love you anymore" James, I don't love you anymore. That simple sentence seemed to pierce through his heart.

James unconsciously touched his chest. Having been the head of the Burke family for so many years, he had lost so much and gradually forgotten the taste of heartache. That statement made him feel as if his heart was being pierced. The pain almost left him breathless.

Sophie walked ahead, her expression gradually calming. Before uttering, those words, she suddenlyCOT remembered the first tshe met James. James was holding her hand and leading her forward. She admitted that in her past life, she truly loved James, but that was only in the past.

She was given a chance to start over and was given a new life. She m wouldn't make the smistakes, and her love for James had faded away with the regrets of her past life. The girl who was once head over heels in love with James no longer existed.

"Mr. Burke... are you alright?" Colt approached, and James was standing still. His gaze was fixed on the other end of the corridor. Witen Colt followed James' gaze, there was no one there.
