Chapter 568
In her past life, Solana 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. Solana had come back to the country at her husband’s abusive behest, seeking money
Considering the timeline, it was only the second year. Why would Solana suddenly come back?
It seemed that Sophie had disrupted more than just one or two things ever since her rebirth.
Solana… was indeed a formidable opponent.
“You must be Sophie, Solana eyed Sophie from top to bottom, only to sneec “You do have some looks. No wonder James is always hovering around you.”
Sophie felt dizzy and had no interest in bantering. “Solana, what do you want?”
Solana’s expression turned cautious. She frowned and asked, “How do you know my name?”
Sophie realized she had inadvertently mentioned Solana’s name, but it was too late.
She tried to maintain her composure, “James mentioned you”
Although suspicious, Solana quickly remembered the urgent matter of her visit, stating. “Then you know, I am James‘ aunt…”
Solana’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 Solana again.
Sophie continued, “If there’s nothing else, I won’t keep you”
As she tried to close the door again, Solana blocked it with her hand. No longer hiding her intentions, she walked straight into the room, followed by her bodyguards in single file
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 Solana.
Bea had called Solana over simply because she didn’t want to lower herself to come here. Solana had walked right into the trap, serving Bea’s purpose perfectly.
Solana really thought too highly of herself.
Sophie said, “James isn’t here. I’m the only one living here at the moment. Solana, are you leaving or not? If not, I have to call the police.”
“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 Solana’s mercenary face, she indeed resembled Bea quite a bit.
Sophie laughed, “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?”
