Facing Sna’s usations, Be a face drained of color. She had never anticipated that Sna, the very person she had been searching for, would end up in Sophie’s hands!


    “Sna, how much did Sophie pay you to pin this on me? I’m your aunt, for crying out loud! If Sophie is threatening you, just tell me, I’ll back you up! The Burke family doesn’t let just anyone mess with us!”


    Bea shot a re at Sophie, pulling the weight of the Burke family name to try and put Sna in her ce. One side was the fallen heiress of the Russell family, and the other was the powerful Burke family of Devonport. The choice seemed obvious.


    But Sna, thoroughly intimidated by her husband and terrified of the Aldridge family, shook her head frantically. “No one paid me! No one threatened me! Aunt Bae, you can’t deny what you did! This has nothing to do with me! Look, I have bank transfer records and chat logs as proof! Ms. Sophie….please, arrest me! I admit it all! I know I’m guilty!”


    Sna kept bowing to Sophie, desperate to escape Sna’s wrath, even if it meant jail time.


    Turning to Bea, Sophie said, “Bea, got anything else to say?”


    Bea red at Sna, seething with frustration. This stupid girl left a trail of evidence! With no room to squirm out of it, Bea sneered, “So what if I did? You’re a flirt, juggling James and Colby, and now Gordon! A woman like you isn’t worth a single tear even if you died a thousand times!”


    “Grandma! The Burke family won’t be pushed around so easily. Even if Sophie thinks she can throw her weight around with the Aldridge family behind her. she has no right to cause a scene here!”Exclusive ? content by N(?)ve/l/Drama.Org.


    Nichole, who had been eavesdropping from the second floorer, decided to jump in and support Bea


    Sophie couldn’t help but chuckle. Nichole wasn’t even married into the family yet, but she was quick to im the Burke name and shield Bea. It was like looking at a younger, more naive version of herself.


    “Sophie! You’re only alive because of Bae’s mercy! You better get l you still can. Don’t think you can do as you please just because Go backing you! This is the Burke family’s turf, not yours!”


    Everyone in Devonport knew the Burke family’s status. Nichole was that Sophie wouldn’t dare to openly challenge them, and Gordon wo a fallout with the Burke family over her. Even if Bea had tried to have killed, Sophie was expected to swallow her pride and move on.


    But just as Nichole was basking in her smugness, Sophie walked righ her. While Nichole stared at Sophie in confusion, Sophie pped her t hard. Nichole’s cheeks burned, and her ears rang. She stood there, stu as she sputtered, “Sophie! You hit me?!”
