"Okay."

At that moment, inside the Burke family mansion, Bea stood up, her complexion somewhat pale. "What? You're telling me James took Sophie to the amusement park?"

"Yes, and that's not all. I heard James even rented out the entire amusement park and spent a billion on Aldridge Global just to ask Sophie out."

Calla lowered her head, feeling hurt.

Since Nichole had left, she had seized the opportunity to return to the Burke family once again.

But all of James' attention was on Sophie. He had no intention of marrying Calla.

She had learned of this news today when she went to Burke International and intended to bring James breakfast.

"That foolish boy! What is he thinking?"

Bea was fuming with anger.

Russell Enterprises had already gone bankrupt. James really shouldn't be wasting his time on Sophie! He should be looking to divorce as soon as possible!

Bea commanded, "Call Colt right now and tell him this message is from me. I want James to come home immediately!"

"Yes!"

Calla joyfully pulled out her phone. When Colt saw the call was from Calla, he pondered for a moment before answering, "Ms. Calla, does Mrs. Bea need something?"

Calla said, "She wants Mr. Burke to come home right now."

"Sorry, the signal here isn't great. I'll call you back later." After saying that, Colt hung up.

Calla's expression soured. She wasn't a child; she knew Colt had done that on purpose.

Bea, frustrated to the point of despair, said, "James! Not only did he lose his own flesh and blood, but now he's also taking his soon-to-be ex-wife to the amusement park! What is he thinking?" Bea picked up her walking stick and said, "Call the driver immediately. I'm going to Burke International myself to get to the bottom of this!"

"Yes."

Meanwhile, James was watching Sophie, who was enjoying herself on the carousel, her face full of pleasure.

He took out his phone, captured this moment, and couldn't help but smile.

If he had realized his feelings for Sophie sooner, could everything have been different?

'Ding Ding-'

Just then, James' phone rang.

James answered the call. On the other end, Colt said, "Mr. Burke, Mrs. Bea had Ms. Calla call me earlier, probably because someone at the company leaked the news about you coming here." "I got it."

James, still watching Sophie on the carousel, said, "Cover for me for the next part of the plan. I don't want her birthday to be ruined."

"Understood, Mr. Burke."

After hanging up, Sophie got off the carousel and said, "If there's something at the company, you should go back. There's no need to stay with me just for my birthday."

After all, she was used to James being busy with various things.

James' voice was low as he said, "Nothing is more important than you today."

Hearing James' words, Sophie fell silent. Perhaps that was what she had hoped to hear in her past life. Unfortunately, she was no longer moved by anything James said.

James asked, "What else do you want to do? Whatever you say today, I'll agree to."

"You shouldn't say that lightly." Sophie raised an eyebrow. "What if I said I want all of Burke International's assets or the CEO position of Burke International? Would you give them to me or not?"
