Sophie grabbed the contract, her eyes scanning the text that confirmed James would hand over all Burke International shares to her in three months.

"Handing over all of Burke International? I thought Mr. Burke was joking, but it seems he's actually serious," she mused.

James' face remained impassive. "When I say something, I mean it. But..."

"But I doubt you'll make it three months."
