Thad flown by, and Devonport had transformed rapidly, with S Corporation becoming a powerhouse in the city. The press conference room at S Corporation was buzzing with journalists, all eager to interview Sophie, who was dressed in a chic black gown and wore trendy gold-rimmed glasses.
In the past two years, Sophie had matured, radiating a confident and intellectual charm.

Is that true?" "What will happen to S Corporation after you leave?" The reporters fired off questions one after another.
Sophie, sitting on stage, gave a calm smile and replied, "Who says a woman has to give up her career if she's pregnant? Times are changing, and it's not unusual to see pregnant women juggling work and life. Plenty of families have dads at hwhile moms work. Stepping down is just my way of growing into a better version of myself. From the start of S Corporation, I've had amazing partners and friends supporting me. But S Corporation is just one chapter in my life, not the whole story. Going forward, S Corporation will keep serving the public and remain a trusted business." Just then, the conference hall doors swung open.
Everyone turned to see James walk in. The journalists quickly snapped into action, capturing every moment. "James? Isn't he Sophie's ex? What's he doing here?" "Is there sbig news? Haven't they been avoiding each other for years?" The reporters buzzed with curiosity.
James walked over to Sophie and shook her hand politely. They looked like business associates meeting for the first time-friendly and professional, but nothing more.
"Burke International has formed a long-term partnership with S Corporation. Mr. Burke will be taking over the development of S Corporation, ensuring its growth and a bright future." Cameras went wild, capturing the handshake between Sophie and James.
In a nearby studio, Colby watched the screen showing Sophie and James, feeling increasingly irritated.
Adler, sitting next to him, burst out laughing. "Colby, didn't see this coming, did you? You look like a jealous boyfriend spying on his girl from the sidelines!" Hearing this, Colby snapped the pencil in his hand, his face expressionless, "Shut up." Seeing Colby's jealous struggle, Adler tried to stifle his laughter.
After the press conference, Sophie relaxed and took off her glasses.

"How are you?" James asked Sophie, like an old friend catching up.
"Just knowing today's my last day makesfeel good."
Even now, Sophie couldn't quite m understand why James loved working so much.
He could tirelessly repeat the smundane tasks day in and day out- meetings, networking, handling paperwork, coordinating partnerships, closing deals, and sometimes jetting across the country. m
