James suddenly chuckled, a resigned look in his eyes as he said, "Alright, then let's do as Grandma suggested."

After all, he was nothing more than a puppet for Burke International in this life.

Meanwhile, the news of Mrs. Burke's funeral being organized by Burke International reached Sophie's ears.

This time, the funeral was grandiose. It's like they feared the world wouldn't know, inviting numerous industry elites, entrepreneurs, and philanthropists. Each person's position in the business world was pivotal. Upon seeing the invitation in her hands, Sophie couldn't help but reveal a cold smile.

Cutting off the useless immediately was a tactic the Burke family had always employed. It was the same in her past life, and even after being reborn, nothing had changed.

"Ms. Sophie, what do we do now?"

They hadn't expected the Burke family to be in such a rush to organize the funeral. This way, if Sophie was officially declared dead, everything afterwards would become complicated. "I've already received the invitation, so it wouldn't be appropriate not to go." Sophie said seriously, "This will truly be the first time I attend my own funeral."

She was genuinely curious about what kind of funeral James would organize. Would it be a business gathering, or would prayers be offered for her soul to rest in peace in a church? "But, Ms. Sophie, your identity..."

"James no longer has any capital to compete with S Corporation, so naturally, there's no need for me to continue hiding my identity as Blake."

Sophie was looking forward to the funeral the day after tomorrow, curious about the expressions on Bea and Nichole's faces when they saw her.

After all, she had a score to settle with Nichole.

The next day, Bea went out to arrange Sophie's funeral, leaving only Nichole in the Burke family home. Nichole went upstairs and pushed open the door to the bedroom Sophie once inhabited. She had always said she would eventually move in. Now, her dream was about to come true.

Nichole entered, lit some scented candles, and opened the doors to the walk-in closet filled with Sophie's clothes, a dazzling array of designer brands that nearly overwhelmed her with choices. Marian noticed the partially ajar door to the upstairs room. Curious, she went up, pushed the door open, and saw Nichole standing in front of the dressing mirror, flaunting her waist and holding a gown that Sophie had worn.

Marian was shocked. "What are you doing in the lady's room? And holding the lady's clothes?"

This time, Nichole didn't show any panic. Looking at Marian before her, she said, "Sophie is dead, and the child I'm carrying now is James' child. Everything here will be mine soon. You're just a servant hired by our family. How dare you lecture me?"

"How can you be so rude! You can't even compare to Ms. Sophie in the slightest!"

Marian had worked for the Burke family for many years and had never been talked to like this before.

Nichole, undeterred, scoffed and said, "A servant is justa servant. How dare you talk to me like that? Once I become Mrs. Burke, you'll be the first one I'll have thrown out!" Marian's face turned pale.
