Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 280

"I'm very much alive," Sophie declared as she rose to her feet. "Your partner is standing right before you, full of life and vigor. You're not dreaming."

Relief washed over Reece's face, a look of joy that one found only after a close brush with disaster. He stepped forward and wrapped Sophie in a tight embrace, needing to confirm the reality of her presence. Sophie patted Reece's back, assuring him. "I promised to make you a movie star, a luminary in the industry, and I intend to keep that promise."

Upon releasing Sophie, Reece's joy morphed into a smile. He had always known she wouldn't be so easily vanquished.

"Why did you take over Russell Enterprises? Why did you meet me? Why haven't you announced that you're still alive?" Reece's mind was a whirlwind of questions.

Sophie hinted, "Didn't you suspect that I was Blake from S Corporation all along?"

Blake was just a pseudonym she had concocted to conceal her identity, fearing that James would discover her.

Everyone thought that the power behind S Corporation was Blake when it was actually Sophie.

But Reece was more perceptive than most. He had already probed into her relationship with S Corporation. So she knew that meeting Reece as the CEO of S Corporation would definitely tip him off.

Reece fell silent for a moment before speaking, "The rumors are flying everywhere. Many believe you're dead, the Russell family is in turmoil, and James is nearly going mad searching for you. What are you planning?"

Sophie's smile faded slightly. "Once, I was the daughter of the Russell family, James' wife. But now, I am simply me, free from the constraints of such titles, able to do as I wish. The final step in becoming my true self is divorcing James."

Divorcing James might seem straightforward, but in reality, it was anything but.

The Russell and Burke families had once been allies, mutually benefiting from each other's projects, with James always having the upper hand in their marriage. She had no say in the matter of divorce. Now, however, their families had fallen out due to her 'death,' and S Corporation and Burke International had become adversaries.

Though things had taken an unexpected turn, they were moving in the right direction. She was close to breaking free from James, just waiting for the right moment.

She hoped Nichole would not disappoint her.

Reece said, "Whatever you want to do, I'm with you."

Sophie smiled, "S Corporation will use all its resources to open up domestic and international entertainment markets for you. I want you to be the brightest star." "Okay," Reece replied without hesitation.

Sophie couldn't help but caution him, "The path isn't as easy as you think. Are you sure?"

"I'm sure," Reece paused, then frowned. "But there's someone standing in my way now."

"Do you mean Corin?"

Originally, she had placed Corin in a media company under Burke International. Surprisingly, the kid did well, and because he was Sophie's recommendation, Burke International had given him their full support offering him all the best resources.

In just a few months, Corin, who had been a second-tier actor at Russell Entertainment, was now on par with Reece.

However, this was all part of Sophie's plan.

"Don't worry, the higher they climb, the harder they fall. Corin's personal life is a mess, rife with scandals. He won't last long."

Sending Corin to Burke International was a strategic move, meant to use him at the right moment to deal a significant blow to Burke Entertainment.
