Sophia's tears dropped to the ground. The heartache was too much for her to bear, and she felt light-headed. Sophia stood firmly, refusing to lose consciousness.
Colin removed her arms and stared at her coldly.
Sophia smiled despite his indifference. Gathering her courage, she got on her on tiptoes and kissed him.
She couldn't remember how Colin responded to her kiss, or how long it took. Suddenly, the sound of high heels clicking on the floor came, and she was pushed away.
The door of the room was pushed open. Seeing who had entered, Sophia clenched her fist tightly.
"I'm sorry I'm late, Colin. I went to the supermarket to buy some fruits." Well-dressed, Dorothy walked in and placed a delicate fruit basket on the table.
What did Dorothy want? Did Colin ask her to come? Did they decide to come see her together?
What did they come here for? To show off their affections for each other?
Ridiculous. Suddenly, Sophia let out a manic laugh.
She grabbed the fruit basket and threw it out of the room. "Get out!"
The fruits scattered all over the ground.
Sophia glared at Dorothy. What a hypocrite! She would never accept Dorothy's fake kindness!
"Sophia, that's enough!" Colin snapped.
Dorothy held Colin's arm smugly. "Sophia, we came to see you because you're Colin's ex-wife. Don't be so ungrateful!"
Before Sophia could reply, Dorothy told Colin softly, "Let's go. Miss Lo needs more rest."
Without looking at Dorothy, Colin left the room. Dorothy immediately went after him.
The footsteps gradually disappeared. Sophia sat on the bed weakly.
The man she loved most had fallen in love with her enemy...
How ironic.
Fate was cruel.
Sophia suddenly felt physically and mentally exhausted.
When Hugh returned to the ward, Sophia was already asleep. He tucked her in and sat by the bedside.
In the Hospital Parking Lot.
Standing beside his May
“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.
Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...
ng mall more frequently, then she could always see Colin...
Colin looked imposing as he walked, attracting the attention of many women.
Trailing behind him were the department managers of the mall. It seemed he was doing an inspection.
Sophia walked out of a men's clothing store, carrying several bags in her hands, when she saw Colin.
Colin's eyes settled on Sophia briefly before he walked inside the shop Sophia had just left. His subordinates followed him.
Sophia wanted to look back, but she didn't want Dorothy to cause trouble for her in the future...
She quickened her pace and left the mall.
Listening to the report of the manager of the menswear store, Colin glanced at Sophia who stood alone outside.
He couldn't figure out whom she bought the clothes for. Were they for Hugh?
The corners of Colin's mouth turned down in irony. He pulled his attention back to work.
At the Lo House.
Sophia opened the door of the living room. "Dad, I'm back. Are you done yet?"
There was nothing but silence.
A sense of foreboding rose in Sophia's heart. She knocked on the closed door of Jay's room. "Dad, are you there?"
Sophia knocked repeatedly, but got no response. When she turned the doorknob, she found that the door wasn't locked.
