Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James)
Chapter 620

"Madam, are you heading to the hospital to see Mr. Burke? I've prepared everything you asked for."

Marian carefully prepared the soup, but Bea turned and walked to the bedroom, pulling out a pill from the drawer.

Marian didn't understand what Bea meant but then watched as Bea dropped the pill into the soup, quickly dissolving it. "Madam...what's this..."

"Have all the bodyguards come with me to the hospital right now!"

"...Understood."

James had been waiting for over an hour inside the hospital room but still hadn't seen Colt return.

Colt had never been this late before.

A bad feeling started to take hold of James. He got up from the bed, but before he could reach the door, he heard footsteps in the corridor.

"Madam, Mr. Burke is recuperating in here." The doctor greeted Bea with the utmost respect.

Bea responded with a nonchalant 'hm,' and just as she lifted her eyes, she spotted James at the door.

"Grandma?"

"James, I came to see you." Bea still had that kind and benevolent look on her face but turned to the doctor with dissatisfaction. "James has suffered such serious injuries. Why is he out of bed? Help him back, now!"

James frowned, then realizing something, scoffed, "Grandma, did you need to bring this many people just to see me?"

"I'm afraid you'll run off. You wouldn't want to end up like that cripple from the Aldridge family, forever confined to a wheelchair, would you?"

Bea approached James, assisting him back to the bed.

James looked at the people behind Bea. They must've been her bodyguards from the family. He couldn't leave now. He had to wait for Colt to come before he could think of escaping.

James sat on the bed's edge as Bea handed him some soup. "Marian made this soup for you. Try it. Is it good?"

James remained silent. Since it was his grandmother who offered the soup, he took the bowl and sipped it.

Bea sighed, "Your father used to love the soup I made. It's a pity I'm too old to make it now."

Mentioning his late father ignited a twinge of guilt in James. Regardless of how Bea treated him, she did raise him.

At that moment, Bea looked at James, "Colt said you were going to Duskhaven to replace Sophie. Is that right?"

At this, James looked up sharply. He never expected Colt to report back to Bea.

"This woman is unmanageable, a

disaster. Your father's life was doomed because of your mother, and that's why they both ended up dying together. James, you have always been my pride. I will not allow you to ruin yourself for a woman!"

James stared at Bea, who was utterly indifferent, and felt a wave of dizziness.

Bea said coldly, "You'll stay in the hospital and recover. I will take care of Burke International for you. Once your legs healed and you've come to your senses, I'll hand the position ou. You'll still be the sole

in charge of the Burke

family."
