"Mr. Gordon," Sophie said, "I still don't quite get it. The Reeves family is just James's mom's side of the family.

Sophie was taken aback. "But... I heard there isn't a suitable male in the current generation of the Reeves family." "Who says a woman can't run Burke International?" Gordon responded lightly. "Elodie, this girl, is quite remarkable." Sophie didn't quite remember anyone from the Reeves family named Elodie, but anyone praised by Gordon had to be someone special.

"Ms. Elodie, Beatrice is waiting for you to discuss matters with the Burke family." "First, to Burke Estate. I want to see Gordon." Her voice was as melodious as the sound of pearls dropping onto a jade plate.
"But..." "No need for you to follow; I'll go on my own." Elodie put her luggage in the trunk and off to Burke Estate, several bodyguards stlles in the airport breeze.
