"What''s the matter?"


    Marian would nevere here to see her without a reason.


    After a nce around, Sophie said, "Come with me."


    She asked Skye to prepare an empty conference room and handed Marian a cup of coffee, saying, "Whatever it is, you can tell me directly." "Madam, it''s Ms. Nichole! She has returned to the Burke family!"


    Nichole?


    Sophie frowned. She remembered that Nichole was supposed to be with Ricardo. How could she suddenly return to the Burke family?


    Sophie said calmly, "Marian, you know I''m no longer Mrs. Burke. James and I are going through a divorce, and it''s only a matter of time." "Madam, Nichole is not a good woman. She merely bewitched Mr. Burke. He was drugged, and that''s why..."


    Marian understood how disgraceful the situation was. Still, she had to say, "Madam, I''ve seen your dedication to Mr. Burke since the day you walked in. Now, he needs you more than ever. I really didn''t want Nichole entering the Burke family, causing unrest, so..."


    "I know you want James and me to reconcile." Sophie smiled lightly and said, "But James and I were never meant to be from the start."


    "Mrs. Burke..."


    "Stop calling me that." Sophie said, "Thank you foring to me and sharing this news. As thedy of the house, Nichole will be difficult to deal with. In the future, if possible, you might be better off sticking with Bea."


    Marian sighed and nodded. Everyone had their own fate. It couldn''t be forced.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    Sophie asked, "But, with Nichole returning to the Burke family, is she looking to marry James?"


    "Yeah!" Marian became angry at the


    mention, saying, "The moment Nichole entered, she started crying and clinging to Bea''s legs. She imed that Ricardo forced leave and even deliberately mentioned her status as the

    Freeman family''s heiress! The sight of it was simply nauseating!"


    "Nichole said Ricardo forced her to leave?"


    Marian said indignantly. "But we all know the truth! As soon as Nichole heard she was the Freeman family''s heiress and her fiancé was Ricardo, she left without a second thought. The took on her face was as if she had won the lottery! How could that have been forced?"


    Sophie frowned.


    With Nichole''s character, she would be overjoyed if she knew she was the Freeman family''s heiress and had a handsome and wealthy fiancé. How could she have been forced to leave?


    Sophie''s expression softened, and she smiled slightly, saying, "Marian, there''s something I need to tell you."


    "What?"


    "Nichole might not actually be the Freeman family''s heiress at all."


    "How could that be? Mr. Briggs even held a press conference! How could Nichole not be the Freeman family''s heiress?" "Hosting a press conference only proves that he believes Nichole is the Freeman family''s heiress, not that she definitely is." Hearing this, Marian fell silent.


    Sophie knew Marian was smart. Now that she knew this information, she would likely share it with Bea upon returning. Bea had a widework in their circle. If she wanted to investigate Nichole''s identity, it would undoubtedly be easier.
