Chapter 12 Colt couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Burke, about Mrs. Burke..." "Why don't you accompany her and ensure she doesn't cause trouble like last time?" James knew that Sophie often attended parties. Someone like her, who didn't understand finance, was really just there to pass the time.

As long as she didn't squander money recklessly like before, it would be fine.

Meanwhile, Sophie watched as Colt approached her. Just as Colt was wondering how to start the conversation, Sophie asked, "Is he with Nichole now?" "Ma'am, Ms. Nichole is a key talent our company is grooming, so..." "I understood." Sophie seemed to be quite concerned about James and Nichole.

Colt breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't shake the feeling that the lady had changed somewhat from before.

Nichole, who was by James' side, was engaging confidently in conversation with several business moguls, all of whom Sophie noticed.

Although Nichole had good grades in school, she was still just a student. Her knowledge hardly impressed these seasoned business veterans, who only complimented her to stay in James' good graces.

Soon, Nichole found herself in a difficult position facing an elderly magnate. If Sophie remembered correctly, this man was a financial tycoon from a foreign country.

The only issue was that the tycoon spoke only his native language and no other foreign languages. His translator was now absent.

"Mr. Burke..." Nichole bit her lip and glanced at James.

As James was pondering how to alleviate the awkwardness, Sophie approached and conversed fluently with the tycoon in his language.

The tycoon seemed very pleased with what Sophie had to say, and they shook hands.

Only then did Nichole notice Sophie.

Sophie was wearing a black evening gown identical to hers. However, Sophie wore it with grace and elegance, making it look exquisite. In contrast, Nichole's dress seemed almost like a cheap market find.

Nichole clenched her fists in frustration, though she kept a smile on her face. "Sophie, you are so impressive. You even know that country's native language." Sophie gave Nichole a slight smile but did not respond.

James remembered Sophie knew foreign languages, but this language wasn't widely spoken or internationally recognized. It was rare for someone to know it; he hadn't expected Sophie to be fluent.

"Sophie, what exactly did you say to Mr. Stephen? He seemed quite pleased." Sophie replied, "I just told him that the plot of land he acquired near the southeastern seaboard at the auction last week is sure to sell well, so he's very pleased." 13:15 Chapter 12 "That plot will sell well?" Nichole looked puzzled. It didn't seem that remarkable.

"Perhaps it might." Sophie sounded nonchalant.

In her past life, that plot indeed sold for a good price when the area m suddenly developed into a tourist destination, turning the real estate there into a goldmine.

Undoubtedly, Mr. Stephen had known about the impending development when he bought that land. Nichole, clearly, did not yet have that kind of foresight.

James watched Sophie for a while, e causing her sdiscomfort. "Why are you looking atlike that?" James asked slowly, "How did you know that plot of land would be a hot seller?"
