Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 1167

Upon hearing this, Sophie chuckled, "What are you talking about, Bea?"

"I don't want that trunk of treasures anymore. It's all yours," Bea declared. "But you must return that 45% share of the company!"

"Bea, do you not understand the situation?" Sophie replied, "Those 45% shares of Burke International could buy you a hundred of those trunks, and you think one trunk of treasures could exchange for it? Aren't you being a bit too greedy?" "You..."

Bea knew the contents of that trunk couldn't compare to the shares Sophie held, but it was the best offer she had.

"Sophie, you should remember, those shares were given to you by our James! How can you do this to him?" Bea said, glancing at Colby.

Colby merely glanced back, and Bea withdrew her gaze, feeling the chill. She insisted, "Sophie, you know well you got those shares without spending a penny, given to you by our James! Now I've given you my trunk of jewelry, you should be satisfied! Don't take things too far!"

"I'd like to remind you, Bea, that your grandson gave me those shares willingly. I didn't force him." Sophie said, "If you're here for this matter, then there's no need to talk further. I've kept that junk of yours long enough. If you want to redeem your belongings, then come up with the money, and I'll hand over the items."

"You..."

Bea's face darkened. James wasn't around, and she didn't have enough money to redeem the items she had pawned to Sophie! Moreover, the company shares she had were now in Elodie's hands.

"Then name your conditions. What will it take for you to return those 45% shares?" Bea asked.

"There might be a solution for you, Bea." Sophie smiled slightly, "If you're willing to give me that trunk of jewelry, along with your own collection, I might be willing to sell yout 10% of the shares."

"What?! Only 10%?" Bea slammed the table in anger. "Sophie! Do you know how much my treasures are worth?"

"Excluding the ones in the trunk, they're worth billions, right?" Sophie said, "Aren't those 10% shares worth billions? Bea, I've already given you a discount."

Bea was furious, her chest heaving with anger, while Sophie continued, "Bea, think carefully. Without those 10% shares, you won't have any stake in the Burke family anymore Without shares, you'll have no say, and the shareholders won't respect you because of your age. With Elodie holding 10% of the shares, she could make things difficult for you at Burke International. My doing this is actually helping you."

"Fine... Fine, you've got some nerve, Sophie..." Bea was enraged but helpless, only able to glare at the woman sitting before her.

"I thought if you had any sense of

decency left today, I wouldn't hold

the past against you, allowing you to continue being part of the Burke family! All you had to do was sever ties with Colby cleanly! But now, it seems, a woman like you doesn't deserve to step through the doors of the Burke family ever again!"
