“Romance, gifts, wealth, looks, and physique.”


    After James finished listing these aspects, Colt immediately responded, “Apart from romance, you have


    it all, Mr. Burker


    “Do I need you to tell me that?”


    James gave Colt a cold nce and said, “Propam ideas ording to these standards.”


    Tm on it‘


    “Have everything ready by tomorrow. Get in touch with Aldridge Global. Im visiting Aldridge Global


    tomorrow.”


    “Yes, Mr. Burke


    The next day, the practice studio at Burke International was inplete disarray.


    “Did you guys hear? Mr. Burke ising to ourpany today!”


    “Mr. Burke ising? Doesn’t that mean..”


    All eyes tumed simultaneously to Sophie.


    Sophie frowned slightly


    James wasing? Why didn’t she know anything about this in advance?


    Sophie immediately took out her phone, intending to ask Tricia, but at that moment, Skye walked in and


    said to Sophie, “Sophie,e with me for a second”


    Under everyone’s gaze, Sophie followed Skye out of the studio and saw James standing downstairs as


    soon as they exited.


    As the CEO of Burke International, James‘ visit to a subsidiary of Aldridge Global should be treated


    with the highest regard. At that moment, James was followed by a bunch of Aldridge Global executives.


    When Wendy came out to see what was happening, she saw her own father nodding and bowing along


    with James.


    “Wendy, isn’t that your dad?


    “Ah, even Wendy’s dad has to stand aside and serve.”


    Wendy felt disgraced and turned to leave..


    Sophie followed Skye into the elevator and asked, “What’s going on?”


    “Mr. Burke is here to discuss a coboration project with ourpany, and he specifically requested to


    see you.” Skye exined. “Just go along with it. Mr. Burke’s investment is very important to us.”


    They were just a subsidiary and still needed to report their performance to Aldridge Global’s


    headquarters annually. If they could secure James‘ support, their staff bonuses and budget allocation


    for the next year would significantly increase


    “Does Gordon know about James‘ visit?”


    “The higher–ups haven’t informed Mr. Gordon.”

    Skye’s exnation was within Sophie’s expectations.


    With Jamesing over, the upper management of Aldridge Global certainly hoped to secure this big


    fish for themselves. As the year–end approached, they aimed to contribute this annual performance to


    Aldridge Global’s headquarters and strive for a substantial reward


    If they had informed Gordon about James‘ potential investment beforehand and James ended up not


    investing, it would undoubtedly have lowered Gordon’s expectations for Aldridge Global. If she were


    one of the executives here, she would also wait until after the deal was secured to inform Gordon.


    “This way” Skye led Sophie to where James was standing


    Mr. Devin said, “Mr. Burke, Mrs. Burke is a new trainee Aldridge Global has signed and is very familiar


    with ourpany! How about having Mrs. Burke apany you for a casual tour and we can have


    lunch together at noon to discuss the coboration? I’ve already


    made reservations at the restaurant.”


    Mr. Devin was extremely ttering.


    “As for the coboration, you can discuss it directly with my secretory. I’m bomowing Sophie for the


    day. Any objections?”


    “No objections! Of course not”


    Mr Devin agreed immediately.


    Sophia was about to refuse, but Mr Devin quickly said, “Having Mrs. Burke Join Aldridge Global as a


    trainee is an honor for us. We won’t disture the two of you from your reunion.”
