Gordon's face was neutral, without a hint of joy. He asked calmly, "What's Bea want you to do in Devonport?" "She's hoping I'll take over Burke International for her grandson, to keep it out of outsiders' hands."

Elodie chuckled, her smile faintly echoing Sophie's. "Gordon, between Sophie and me, who do you stand with?"

Gordon's response was cool. "The fact that I invited you here should make that clear."

"You're so good to Sophie, it's almost... enough to make me a bit jealous."

Elodie's smile faded. "I need Burke International. I don't blame you for siding with Sophie, but I'm not backing down on this."

She placed a bottle of pills on the table in front of Gordon. "These should help with your condition. I'll take my leave now."

Elodie flashed a brief smile before turning to leave Gordon's study. Rick, watching her go, voiced his concern, "Sir, Ms. Elodie won't back down easily."

"If she did, she wouldn't be Elodie," Gordon replied with a touch of indifference. "But Sophie's no pushover either. It'll be interesting to see who finally gets their hands on Burke International."
