For Sophia Lo, it was a great opportunity to pay back Wendy. "Auntie, please don"t hesitate to ask."
She would try her best to do whatever she could.
"I have two sons. The elder one, Colin, is nearing thirty this year. However, he still hasn"t found a woman to take care of him.
I want you to marry Colin. To be by his side, and take care of him."
Sophia had not expected that the first help Wendy would ask for was to marry her elder son.
"But Auntie, you know I am not good in house affairs." Before the Lo clan declined, Sophia, although not a lady in a rich and powerful family, she was her parents favorite and was not allowed to do any housework.
"It doesn"t matter. We have maids to do housework.
You don"t need to do anything." "Will Colin agree?" Sophia was uncomfortable with the idea of marrying a stranger.
"His opinion hardly matters. That troublesome boy is almost thirty and has not brought me a daughter-in-law! Please tell Auntie whether you will or not. I will understand if you don"t want to marry him.
Kid, don"t put yourself in a dilemma." "Auntie, please give me some time to think about it." Sophia Lo said the words with a bowed head.
Wendy left her alone in the room.
She went to a window sill. Looking out of the window silently, she recalled a man"s figure in her mind.
The man said to her, "Sophia, I will beg your father to let you marry me next year after I graduate."
However, the man, who had promised to marry her, was in the arms of another woman because of power.
After the engagement, he came to find her and said, "Sophia, the one that I love is you, not her. I will get a divorce with her when my position is stable. Please wait for me."
How had that turned out?
Dorothy Lien had found out that her fiancé was in love with Sophia. No wonder she was treating Sophia poorly. At first, Dorothy made all kinds of plans to embarra.s.s Sophia. When that was not enough, she planned to send Sophia to prison along with her beloved man.
Sophia Lo closed her e
“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 a.s.sets? 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...
ance? Sophia Lo, how dare you!" Colin"s legs were on the tea table and his voice was lazy, which made it hard for Sophia to judge his feelings.
Sophia turned around and walked into the kitchen. "What do you want to eat?"
"Nothing!" Colin stood up and walked to the door.
He threw her some keys before leaving "You know the villa"s address and these are the keys. Pick a room and move in."
He closed the door forcefully and left as quickly as he had arrived.
Sophia looked at the keys on the sofa with bitterness. Their marriage was just in name.
Maybe it was Wendy who had forced Colin to give Sophia the villa"s keys.
As expected, the day after Sophia moved in, her mother-in-law came to Colin"s villa in Z Country.
Sophia was still in a meeting with Colin at the company when Wendy called her.
Maybe it was a sudden inspection. After work, Colin warned Sophia as she drove to the villa, "Don"t say anything absurd in front of my mother and sleep in my bedroom tonight!"
"As you wish, Mr. Li!" Sophia promised lightly and continued driving carefully.
At the villa, the maids were busy preparing dinner. Wendy looked unhappy at the sight of the couple.
"Mom, you are here!" Sophia changed her shoes and greeted Wendy with a smile.
Wendy"s smile made Colin jealous. He murmured that she had not given him a smile yet!
