Chapter 1404 I Won’t Exhaust My Brother-in-Law

Colin developed a soft heart for the child so he didn't even try to stop her from calling him as her father.
This was the truth. Everything Colin just said was pure truth.
Colin exclaimed, "It was all Marcella's idea. She had this going on for a long time. She persuaded Dorothy to tell you that I wanted to be with you because I just wanted you to donate your kidney for Nana. Don't you see? I have never even tested whether your kidney is compatible with Nana's. And even though it is compatible, I won't let you donate your kidney. I won't take that risk. There are other donors right there."
......
After hearing these words, Sophia couldn't utter a single word. She didn't know what to think nor feel. She was just looking outside the window, contemplating about this sudden change of things.
"I am sorry about Nana, but as for Brody, I..." She wanted to say that she couldn't forgive him, but she hesitated. She wanted to vent out her anger to him because he has kept her son away from her for a very long time.
Colin sensed her anguish so he immediately held her left hand, while his other hand was steering the wheel. He stopped at a red light, and looked at her intently, "Sophia, we've gone so far. I want to be with you. You have no choice but to forgive me. I didn't want that to happen, too."
He was being a bully! How could he manipulate her emotions again? She refused to let him gain the upper hand this time around. She replied, "I have another choice. I can live with two kids..."
Colin let go of her hand and stepped hard on the accelerator. He suddenly blurted out, "Impossible!"
......
Colin then took Sophia to his office. When Sophia sat down on the sofa, Colin approached her, his hands placed on each side of the sofa to support his body. They were so close to each other right now.
Colin turned serious, "From now on, you need to be with me wherever I go. I am afraid that those two annoying flies would harass you again."
Eh... What? Two flies? She quickly understood that he was referring to Hugh and Flynn.
But she thought that he was trying to restrict her freedom. Sophia abruptly shook her head and said, "No way!"
"Well, I'll give you two choices. Be with me or be with my mother. What will you choose?"
...... She didn't actually want to make a choice, but she knew Colin wouldn't agree. So she just said, "I want to be with your mother!"
She felt that she did something wrong after making that choice because Colin suddenly smirked at her. 'Am I being trapped?' Sophia thought in exasperation.
Colin said, "Dear, please wait for me here. As so
When her boyfriend betrayed her, all light and joy was gone from Cherry’s life. Deserted, bereft of hope, she married a man that she had barely met, but she had never expected him to be her ex-boyfriend’s uncle.
Cherry thought that she had finally found her happiness, but she had no idea about the dark secrets that were bound to unfold and haunt her forever...
gh forced a smile and greeted them out of respect.
Sophia asked, "Hugh, are you coming to eat here?" Sophia felt a little awkward. Although Hugh was having a hard time recently, she had never called to ask about his situation. She never showed her concern for him before. She thought, 'I should at least call him to show my concern. I'll call him soon, then.'
Hugh smiled and said, "Yes, I invited some guests to eat here. I heard the food in here was really good."
Then he introduced those two foreigners to Colin and Sophia. They courteously greeted each other. Then Hugh glanced at Sophia once more before entering the restaurant with those two foreigners.
Sophia looked back at Hugh, and was lost in her thoughts, 'Since Hugh is worried about Pei Group, should I ask him if he needs any help? I should at least do that out of courtesy.'
But suddenly the pain in her hand brought her back to reality. Colin became dismayed and jealous. "He's now out of your sight. Can you please stop looking at him?"
"I am not looking at him. I am just a little ashamed. I want to help him. He has been a very nice friend to me." She said that with complete honesty. After all, Hugh was a good person and had done many good things for her.
Colin pushed her into the car, and said, "Humph, you don't have to worry about that. You just need to take care of yourself, our son and our daughter." He would help Hugh with his company. They were still good friends. He would never forget that.
Sophia rolled her eyes at him on purpose, and said, "If you want a daughter, you can give birth to one on your own. Let's see if you can do that!" Colin fastened her seat belt and kissed her forehead. Then Colin went to the other side and drove away.
