In her past life, Sna had returned for a very simple reason: her husband''s addiction to gambling. Despite being decked out in gold and silver, their wealth was depleting fast. Sna hade back to the country at her husband''s abusive behest, seeking money.
Considering the timeline, it was only the second year. Why would Sna suddenlye back?
It seemed that Sophie had disrupted more than just one or two things ever since her rebirth.
Sna... was indeed a formidable opponent.
"You must be Sophie," Sna eyed Sophie from top to bottom, only to sneer, "You do have some looks. No wonder James is always hovering around you."
Sophie felt dizzy and had no interest in bantering, "Sna, what do you want?"
Sna''s expression turned cautious. She frowned and asked, "How do you know my name?"
Sophie realized she had inadvertently mentioned Sna''s name, but it was toote.
She tried to maintain herposure, "James mentioned you."
Although suspicious, Sna quickly remembered the urgent matter of her visit, stating, "Then you know, I am James'' aunt..."
Sna''s smile faded a bit as she said, "I just got back to the country and heard from my aunt about you and James. You must have seen the news today." "Unfortunately, I didn''t."
Sophie''s response choked Sna again.
Sophie continued, "If there''s nothing else, I won''t keep you."
As she tried to close the door again, Sna blocked it with her hand. No longer hiding her intentions, she walked straight into the room followed by her bodyguards in single file. s?novel
Sophie scoffed, "So, you intend to barge into someone''s home?"
"How could you call it barging in? I am James'' aunt, and I came to this dump only because my aunt Bea begged me; otherwise, I would never step foot here."
Idiot!
Sophie was almost amused by Sna.
Bea had called Sna over simply because she didn''t want to lower herself toe here. Sna had walked right into the trap, serving Bea''s purpose perfectly.
Sna really thought too highly of herself.
Sophie said, "James isn''t here. I''m the only one living here at the moment. Sna, are you leaving or not? If not, I''ll have to call the police."Têxt ? N?velDrama.Org.
"Sophie, I think you need to think
carefully. You''re now a public enemy, universally despised. You
and James are already divorced
What''s the point of stubbornly
staying? Aunt Bea has made it clear she won''t give you any money. Just give up."
Sophie watched Sna''s mercenary face; she indeed resembled Bea quite a bit.
Sophieughed, "Who said I''m not leaving?"
"If you''re not clinging on, why are
you hiding James? Sophie, don''t you know James'' status? The CEO of Burke International is attending such a low-tier event with you. What would people say about my family?"
