“Whatever.” Colby’s voice was cold as he dropped that word and turned to leave.


    Once Colby left, Adler didn’t want to stick around either. He quickly caught up with Colby, leaving


    Vanessa alone.


    Sophie, witnessing this, simply turned and left as well.


    Jenna asked from the side, “Did you hear what they were saying?”


    1 did”


    Adler’s voice was so loud, it was impossible not to hear.


    Vanessa just inadvertently caused her a lot of trouble.


    Jenna saw Sophie’s grim expression and grew serious. “Will Vanessa joining Burke International’s film


    division cause you trouble?”


    Sophie remained silent, but her expression said it all.


    “That bad?”


    “I hope not”


    But indeed, the White family overseas had their moment of glory, and now, with Colby’s support, it


    would surely make people wary


    Burke International inviting Vanessa to join their film division at this time was clearly a strategic move, a


    way to shift attention from the recent scandal involving Corin


    Having the White family’s background, Vanessa would also attract a significant amount of overseas


    investment.


    No wonder Vanessa and Colby had been trending online recently. It was Burke International building


    momentum for Vanessa.


    With this, the film division of Burke International, previously marred by Corin’s scandal, seemned


    poised for a revival.


    Within three days, Vanessa indeed started making frequent appearances on the trending list. With the


    title of an overseas socialite, Vanessa quickly became the darling of high society, an heiress of wealth.


    This persona was something she could firmly establish


    Sophie sat in the top office of S Corporation, feeling weary.


    The situation had taken a turn, and everything was unfolding as she had anticipated. The film division


    of Burke International was indeed gradually recovering thanks to Vanessa’s involvement.


    Corin’s impact on the film division was slowly diminishing.


    Tricia knocked on the door, saying, “Ms. Sophie, there’s an urgent matter.”


    “Come in.” Sophie asked tiredly. “What’s the bad news this time?


    “Nichole has been released from prison.”


    This is from N?velDrama.Org.


    Hearing this, Sophie’s weary eyes regained focus as she frowned. “You said Nichole has been


    released?”


    “Who released her?”


    “It’s unclear, but it seems it wasn’t the Burke family’s doing.”


    Sophie found it amusing. “If it wasn’t the Burke family, then how did she get out? Did she escape on


    her own?”


    “It doesn’t seem like an escape. It looks like she went through the proper procedures and was bailed


    out.”


    “Are you suggesting Nichole’s mother spent a fortune to bail her out?” Sophieughed, saying, “I have


    people watching Nichole’s mother around the clock. She’s dodging creditors every day; she doesn’t


    have the money to bail Nichole out


    Tve already sent someone to investigate. However, Nichole went straight to the Burke family upon her


    release and now is under Bea’s protection, making the investigation somewhat difficult”


    er isn’t urgent.”


    “It’s okay. Take your time with the investigation. This matter


    “It isn’t?”


    “Since Nichole is out, it means she has the means to do so. And now, she’s under the protection of Bea


    from the Burke family, who’s eager for a grandchild. Who do you think would dare touch her?”


    Hearing this, Tricia also fell silent for a moment, then said, “I understand, I’ll get on it‘


    “Be thorough. The information gathered will sooner ortere in handy”
