Chapter 76 Le''s Feelings
Colin''s eyes went cold. "Why? Haven''t I satisfied you this afternoon?"
... If it wasn''t for dinner, Sophia would force herself on Colin. Oops! No, she was more likely to punch
him in the face!
"Fuck off." Sophia red at him.
It seemed they''d better keep their distance.
"Did you just tell me to fuck off?"
"Yes! You heard me. Now fuck off!" Sophia was so furious, she had totally forgotten her personal
promise that she would be nice to Colin in the future.
Instead of pulling away, Colin lowered his head and kissed her roughly. He kissed so hard, that he was
almost biting her.
But Sophia didn''t push him away. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed back fiercely.
They didn''t let go even when they started losing their breath.
Since Sophia had been with Colin several times, she knew exactly what would happen next.
Before Colin moved further, she forcefully pushed him away and rushed towards the bedroom door as
soon as he was caught off guard.
Sophia almost burst intoughter when she mmed the door shut behind her. She was so happy that
she had to hold back the sudden impulse, trying not to jump up in joy.
It was indeed her victory. Left in the room, Colin felt like pulling her back inside and having her against
the wall...
A sweat broke out on Colin''s forehead as he tried to reign in his desire.
Another figure emerged from the staircase. When Sophia saw her, her triumphant smile faded away.
"Miss Ji, guests are not allowed on the second floor tonight. May I show you out?" Sophia didn''t like
her. The woman wanted to seduce her husband, after all!
Le nced at Sophia, then ignored her. She went directly to Colin''s room and knocked on the door,
"Colin? Are you there?"
"He is, but he can''t see you now. Bad timing, Miss Ji." Sophia''s face was still flushed and she spoke
breathlessly. It was obvious what she and Colin had been up to.
Le ignored her again and kept knocking on the door. "Can Ie in, Colin?"
...
Before Le pulled the door open, Colin walked out. "What''s up, Le?"
"Colin, is she really your wife?" Le looked curiously at Sophia.
Colin frowned. Hadn''t he introduced them? "Yes, Le. As I have told you, Sophia Lo is my wife."
Le ignored Colin''s unpleasant tone and turned to Sophia. "Then why aren''t you devoted to Colin?
Why are you seducing Dorothy''s husband?"
...
"Did Miss Ji misunderstand something? When did I seduce Payne Tai? Who told you that?" Sophia
asked coldly.
"I overheard Payne talking to Dorothy. Isn''t Colin enough for you?"
Sophia smiled wryly. "Miss Ji, who are you to ask that?"
Turning around, she drew her angry eyes back from their faces. Then she walked downstairs without
looking back.
Colin watched her retreating back until Sophia disappeared from his sight. "She''s a bit straightforward.
Don''t take it personally, Le."
"It''s okay, Colin. I''m more concerned about you. Why would Payne say that if it wasn''t true? I feel so
bad for you." Finally alone, Le gazed at Colin with unabashed affection.
Colin smiled. "That''s not possible. Sophie isn''t that kind of person."
Le was seized by a sudden heartache. She couldn''t help holding Colin''s waist. "Colin, why didn''t you
wait for me? Why did you have to marry a woman like her? You''re out of her league... Colin, do you
have any idea how I feel about you? Why didn''t you choose me?"
Le''s quiet sobs made Colin feel bad. He reached out a hand to softly caress her long wavy hair.
"Le, I''ve told you before that you deserve a better man. I''m not the right person for you. Don''t cry,
Le, your make-up will be ruined."
"Colin, do you dislike me?" Le buried her face into his chest, greedily breathing in his smell.
Not far from them, stood Sophia in silence. She had gone back up to get her cellphone, which she left
in her bedroom. She looked at them with a nk expression on her face.
"How could I dislike you, Le? You''re like my own sister!" Colin tried tofort her. When he spotted
the figure standing by the stairs, a guilty look crept up his face.
The hand that was reaching to pat Le''s head froze in an awkward gesture.
Their eyes met, but Colin couldn''t make out the expression on Sophia''s face.
Oblivious, Le continued talking with her face buried in his shoulder. "You know I don''t want to be your
sister. In the past several years, I''ve made so many phone calls to you. Didn''t you notice? I''ve stayed
single all this time. I''ve been waiting for you, Colin.
I''ve always said that as long as you''re not married, I won''t get married, either. Then all of a sudden, you
tell me that you''ve married someone else. Colin, how could you be so oblivious?" Le cried bitterly
and hugged Colin tightly.
Sophia watched the whole scene unfold. They''ve been hugging each other for three minutes, but
neither of them let go.
Now, she was certain that Le was Colin''s true love.
Sophia went downstairs, the light in her eyes fading away. She felt a suffocating pain engulf her chest.
Colin stared helplessly at Sophia''s back as she turned back downstairs. He wanted to go after her and
exin to her, but couldn''t heartlessly abandon Le. He stayed in ce,forting the crying woman
in his arms.
"Le, if we were suitable for each other, we would''ve fallen in love a long time ago. But we didn''t.
We''re not meant for each other."
Le was 29, and he was 30.
If he had feelings for Le, he wouldn''t have kept her waiting for so long.
Le knew he was telling the truth. She choked with sobs, hugging him tightly as if he would disappear

if she let go.
...
Downstairs, dinner had began. Taking Sophia''s hand, Wendy settled her in the seat next to her. Many
guests had started curiously asking Wendy who Sophia was. Wendy smiled and told them that Sophia
was her daughter.
Wendy wanted to say "daughter-inw." But to get Colin to agree to the marriage, she had promised
him that she would keep their marriage a secret from the outside world.
"Where''s Colin? What''s taking him so long?" Colin''s seat next to Sophia was empty.
At Wendy''s question, Sophia absentmindedly unpacked a wet tissue and replied, "He''s busy."
"What''s he busy with right now?" Wendy then noticed that Le''s seat next to General Ji was also
empty.
Among all the three tables for guests, only Le''s and Colin''s seats were empty.
ncing at the pale look on Sophia''s face, Wendy sensed something was wrong.
"Sophie, where''s Colin?"
"He seems to be upstairs." Sophia was still thinking about Colin and Le holding each other. Before
she realized it, she had replied with Colin''s whereabouts. She was so immersed in her own thoughts
that she didn''t notice Wendy leaving for Colin.
In the corridor upstairs, Le''s crying hade to an end. Colin tried to push her away, but Le held
onto his coat tightly.
"Colin, Le." Wendy''s voice came from the staircase. Hearing this, Le quickly stepped away from
Colin''s arms.
Lowering her head and averting her eyes, she whispered, "Aunt Wendy."
