Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

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."

"Sir, Mrs. Costello doesn't stand much of a chance against Ms. Elodie..."

Elodie had single-handedly transformed the Reeves Corporation since she was seventeen. With her exceptional business talents, she doubled the family's fortune and secured an unshakable position in Harbo City.

Now, with Elodie eyeing the Burke

Estate, few would question her capability. Even though James had transferred all his shares to Sophie, the shareholders would likely try to reclaim them, fully aware of Elodie's prowess.

When it comes to cunning and strategy, Ms. Elodie is unmatched.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

"Who says there's no chance?" Gordon glanced at Rick. "I am Sophie's greatest asset."

Elodie, though shrewd, lacks something crucial.

She's too detached, always on guard. Her resentment runs deep; whether in Devonport or Harbor City, she has no true friends.

No one truly stands by her, and she stands by no one. This is her biggest flaw.

Her drive to be powerful often leads her to manipulation rather than genuine connections. Hence, she fights her battles alone.

Sophie, on the other hand, is

different. Along her journey, sheet

had friends and enemies. She people sincerely but doesn't hold

back against her foes.

Between the two of them... if it comes down to it, Elodie might not necessarily come out on top.

"Mrs. Costello, my chat with Mr. Gordon today wasn't very pleasant."

Elodie smiled. "I look forward to seeing you at the Burke International shareholders' meeting in a few days."
