Chapter 491 "How could the Burke family be involved in a robbery for no reason at all?" Sophie was well aware of the Burke family's security system. Besides the twenty guards, there were numerous maids and bodyguards. The Burke mansion even had its own chapel. Thus, the front and back doors were equipped with state-of-the-art security systems, making it nearly impossible for the average person to break into the Burke estate. What kind of robber would have the capability to suddenly break into the back door of the Burke mansion? "The police should be here, soon. We shouldn't add to the chaos. Sophie, let's go." Jenna tugged at Sophie's arm with a hint of fear, but Sophie frowned and said, "Don't call the police. I'm going in." "Sophie, have you lost your thind?"

Only the two of them could hear Sophie's voice. There was a moment of silence before a henchman stepped forward and said, "We've got control of the entire Burke mansion. I can take James' life right now to avenge you!" *Slap!* A crisp slap landed on the henchman's face, who quickly said, "Sir!" "Retreat." Colby's voice was deep, carrying an undeniable authority. *But..." "Dol need to repeat myself?" Colby seemed to have lost all interest in staying any longer. He walked out of the Burke mansion's grand entrance, and the rest of the henchmen could only release the dozens of guards and maids before following him out of the Burke mansion.
Sophie took a deep breath and said, "Turn the power back on." "Right, I'm on it!"
