Colt nodded in agreement. The directors who had planned to use their resignation as a means to force James into a divorce nearly collapsed in relief. No one expected James to actually take serious action!

James' recent despair made them forget the resolute and influential head of Burke International that he once was.

"Mr. Burke, are you really going to let them resign? These are all veteran directors we're talking about."

"I need to send a warning to Grandma." James said indifferently, "Her reach should not extend into the company, and definitely not in front of me."

"Yes, Mr. Burke."

James pulled out a card and said, "The money in here should cover all the expenses. I need some peace for the time being."

"Mr. Burke, although the issue with the construction site has been resolved, there's still the matter with your wife..."

At the mention of Sophie, James gave Colt a cold glance, and Colt added, "The lady has been sending divorce papers daily. We can't just keep tearing them up every time one arrives." "Arrange a meeting with Sophie tonight."

"But Bea mentioned that you must return home tonight."

James replied coldly, "I have the final say in Burke International and the Burke family."

"Of course, Mr. Burke."

As the evening darkened, Nichole prepared a table full of delicious dishes, waiting for James to return. It was already seven o'clock, and a car pulled up at the Burke family's door. Nichole happily opened the door, only to see the driver of Burke International stepping out.

"Why are you alone? Where's James? Why hasn't James come back?"

The driver replied, "Mr. Burke is tied up with some matters tonight and asked me to inform Ms. Nichole and Mrs. Bea not to wait for him for dinner."

"Where did Mr. Burke go? Do you know?"

"It seems he has a business meeting with Mrs. Burke."

Hearing that James was meeting Sophie, Nichole clenched her fists. Even after Sophie had shown such disrespect, James still had her in his heart! "Do you know which restaurant?"

"It seems to be the Diamond Crest Hotel."

"A hotel?"

Images of James and Sophie, drunk and intimate in a hotel room, flashed through Nichole's mind.

She told the driver, "I just remembered I have urgent matters to discuss with Mr. Burke. Take me to the Diamond Crest Hotel right now."

"That's not really appropriate..."

Nichole handed the driver several bills, and he reluctantly agreed to take Nichole to the hotel.

At the Diamond Crest Hotel, James had already reserved a table by the window at the restaurant. It was close to Russell Entertainment, allowing him to spot Sophie approaching from a distance.

As the familiar figure appeared in his sight outside the window, he wondered why he had never paid so much attention to her before.

If they could start over and he had treated her well after their marriage, could they perhaps have had a better ending?

After a while, Colt approached James and said, "Mr. Burke, Mrs. Burke has arrived."

Sophie was wearing a sleek and professional dress, her demeanor cool and detached, a significant change from before.

She looked at James and smiled. "Are you ready to sign the divorce papers?"
