Chapter 479

"A gala?"

Sophie returned to S Corporation, immediately catching wind of the company's internal buzz.

She tossed the invitation onto her desk, saying, "Out with it. Why didn't this invitation appear on my desk yesterday?"

Tricia was visibly hesitant but eventually confessed, "This time, the gala will host all the top celebrities and big-name stars. I thought it unnecessary, so..."

"Get to the point. Who's the host?"

Tricia dodged the question, clearly hiding something. Pressed by Sophie, she had no choice but to reveal. "... The host is Burker International."

Hearing this, Sophie laughed. She knew Tricia wouldn't have hidden the invitation without a reason. It was for fear of her running into James.

Carefully, Tricia said, "Ms. Sophie, Burker International intends to announce Mr. Burke's and... Ms. Rowena's engagement."

In Devonport, everyone knew the nature of Sophie and James' relationship. Now, James was getting engaged to Nichole, and the invitation was sent to his still-not- officially-divorced wife, an irony indeed.
