Sophia hurriedly explained for Colin, "Mom, he"s a CEO. There are too many things going on in the company. Sometimes, he can"t help himself. He can"t just leave whenever he wants to."
Wendy laughed out, glancing at her. "Sophie, you"re so protective of Colin! You"ll spoil him!"
Sophia opened her mouth but was at a loss for words. If Wendy was happy with that thought, she wouldn"t ruin it.
"No, I don"t think so. Mrs. Lyu, let me help you!" Seeing Mrs. Lyu prepare to wash the vegetables, Sophia quickly changed the subject.
"But that"s a servant"s job, Mrs. Li..." Mrs. Lyu hesitated. Sophia smiled at her, "I"m just going to wash some vegetables. Come on, you can help Wendy with other things."
Wendy nodded to Mrs. Lu. She reluctantly gave the vegetable basin to Sophia and started to work on something else.
The SL Group
After hanging up the phone, Colin contemplated for a while. He returned to the conference room and said, "Alright, everyone. Go home, have a good rest, and think of a better way to solve the problem. That"s it for today"s meeting."
...
Everyone was completely shocked at Colin"s words. Half an hour ago, he said that if they couldn"t come up with a good idea, no one would be going home tonight.
How could one phone call change his mind so quickly?
Although everyone was puzzled, they all hurriedly packed up their things and quickly left room before Colin changed his mind.
Wendy placed the last dish onto the table. Sophia was pacing in the doorway with her phone in her hands, when she heard the door of the villa open.
Pleasantly surprised, she raised her head and saw Colin come in.
"You... You"re back!" Sophia flashed him a smile.
Colin shot her a strange look. What was she up to? Was she determined to play the affectionate wife to please his parents?
With that thought, Colin hummed indifferently in response.
He changed into his slippers and took off his suit jacket. When a pair of small hands reached out to take his coat, Colin was surprised. His puzzled eyes met hers.
Sophia awkwardly explained, "I"ll hang it
"Do you know what you did wrong? It"s alright if you just wanted to own me. But you should not have helped Molly leave me!"
When Brian learns the truth, there is no chance for Hannah to win his heart.
Molly, who wants to run away from Brian, seems to be the only one to blame for Hannah"s misfortune...
!"
Angie flashed a kind smile, "You don"t have to be so polite to your mother. Look how good your mother is to you, Sophie."
Sophia nodded, shooting Wendy a grateful look, "Mom has always been nice to me."
She suddenly heard Colin scoff. Her cheerful mood instantly disappeared.
Colin"s voice was low, and no one else noticed.
Wendy was still smiling at Sophia, "The best reward I could wish for is a grandchild. You should hurry up, Sophie."
When people reached a certain age, they wanted different things.
Now in her fifties, Wendy was about to enter old age. She"s very eager for a grandchild.
When Wendy brought up the subject, Levi remained silent. He ate his food quickly with his head down.
He and Colin had been urged by mother for years to get married and have children. Since his brother finally got married, mom hadn"t paid him attention for a while.
As long as mother focused on Colin and Sophia, he could still be free...
Sophia"s face flushed as she was urged to have children again. She bowed her head, "All right."
Colin didn"t promise or refuse. Instead, he deliberately turned to Levi, "Levi, you"re 27 years old now, aren"t you?"
Levi glared, "Can"t you leave me be?"
"I certainly won"t, brother." Colin took a sip of his soup.
"What do you want?"
"Mom, now that Levi has also come of age, shouldn"t you focus on getting him a wife?"
