Chapter 206 Will You Be My Mother


    "Don''t mention it. Don''t forget to have breakfast downstairs after helping Brody dress up."


    "Okay." Sophia happily watched Wendy leave the nursery.


    "Sophia." The little boy suddenly called her. Sophia snapped out of her thoughts.


    Seeing Ambrose changing out of his pajamas, Sophia hurriedly went to him to help him change his


    clothes. "You know how to change your own clothes? That''s amazing!"


    "I''ve learned that a long time ago! Dad always tells me that since I''m a man, I need to do things like this


    by myself." Ambrose announced with pride.


    "That''s wonderful, Brody is such a responsible man!" Sophia gushed, smiling in amusement at the


    proud look on his face.


    After Ambrose was dressed properly, Sophia took him to the bathroom to wash. Ambrose watched


    Sophia through the mirror as she squeezed toothpaste out of the tube. "Sophia, do you like my father?"


    Oh... That came out of the blue. Sophia was at a loss of words. Sophia fumbled for an appropriate


    answer.


    She intended to deny it at first, but in the face of Ambrose''s serious look, she couldn''t lie. She stuttered,


    "Well, a little..."


    Sophia didn''t like Colin a little. She already loved him a lot, and his recent kindness towards her only


    made her fall in love even more.


    "In that case... I won''t ask you to be my girlfriend anymore." Ambrose approached her with a smile.


    Sophia was astonished when he asked, "Will you be my mother?"


    ''Will you be my mother?'' Sophia''s eyes widened. Tears welled up in her eyes as she quietly repeated


    the words to herself.


    Her hand trembled and froze halfway in handing the toothbrush to Ambrose. Taking it, Ambrose rinsed


    his mouth with tap water and started brushing his teeth. He stared at Sophia''s shocked expression


    through the mirror.


    He was serious about this. He couldn''tpete with his father and win Sophia over against him. But it


    would be good to have Sophia as his mother.


    He would be proud to tell everyone in ss, "This is Sophia Lo, my mother!" That would be awesome!


    By the time Sophia finally snapped out of her shock, Ambrose had finished brushing his teeth and was


    already gargling.


    She discreetly wiped away the tears with the back of her hand. Sophia kissed him on his cheek and


    whispered hoarsely, "I''d love to, but I need some time. Can you wait?"


    Sophia was determined. For Ambrose''s sake, she would do everything she could to stop Colin and


    Dorothy from marrying each other.


    If her n was sessful and Dorothy went to jail, she would find a way to get back with Colin. And if


    that happened, she would be willing to be... Ambrose''s mother.


    "Okay, let''s make a deal!" Ambrose grinned. There was still a little toothpaste foam stuck on the


    corners of his mouth.


    "Yes, alright. Now let me wash your face..."


    Afterwards, Sophia was in a particrly good mood.


    She could tell that Ambrose liked her a lot, and she definitely felt the same way about him. But she


    didn''t expect his request. Perhaps he loved her more than she imagined...


    Sophia cleaned Ambrose up and told him to go downstairs first. She returned to Colin''s room to wash


    her face.


    Inside, Colin had already sorted himself up. When Sophia entered the room, he noticed her eyes were


    red. Colin frowned. "Why were you crying?"


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    "What? No... Maybe when I washed my face... The toothpaste foam went into my eyes." Sophia always


    stuttered when she was lying.


    Colin was familiar with her habits. Striding to her, he snapped, "You''re lying, Sophia Lo!"


    "Um... It''s nothing! I need to wash my face!" Colin''s stare was so intense, she felt like she would spill


    everything if she stayed with him any longer.


    Her heart jolted as she rushed into the bathroom. She decided to keep Ambrose''s request a secret.


    Colin mustn''t know about it.


    If Colin knew that she wanted to get back together with him, he would cast her away.


    She didn''t think she would be bold enough to steal Colin''s son away under his nose, yet here she


    was...


    After washing her face, she went out of the bathroom. She expected to see it empty, but Colin was still


    there, looking at his cellphone. Hearing the door open, he raised his head to look at her, "Ready?"


    "Yeah."


    "Let''s go." He put away his phone, and took the lead to leave the room.


    Sophia was at a loss of words. Was he waiting for her?


    Colin walked downstairs, with Sophia following behind. Staring at Colin''s back, she realized something


    was different about him.


    He seems to have changed. Colin was quieter than before, and more unpredictable. Most times, she


    couldn''t figure out his thoughts or sense his emotions.


    And his attitude towards her gave her whish. He was either surprisingly kind or extremely aloof.


    Sophia had mixed feelings about his erratic behavior. But one thing was for certain, she was trapped.


    He always took her down a peg when she was happy, and cheered her up a little when she was sad.


    Sophia sighed heavily. She didn''t know what to think about their rtionship.


    Colin must be taking his vengeance on her. He must still be angry with her for filing for divorce.


    When they arrived at the dining room, Ambrose was having breakfast with the elders. Levi and Selina


    were still upstairs.


    Sophia greeted, "Uncle, auntie, good morning."


    Jordan looked at her nkly. "Morning. Have some breakfast."


    Sophia breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed her former father-inw wasn''t mad at her.


    She knew that if Jordan hated someone, he wouldn''t talk to the person at all. But since he spoke to her,


    she spected that he wasn''t angry with her.


    "Aunt Sophia,e over!" Sophia was surprised. Ambrose never called her that before.


    ncing at his son in surprise, Colin wondered what he was up to.


    Sophia sat down beside Ambrose, who was eating an egg tart. He quickly picked up another one for


    Sophia and urged, "Try it! It''s good, Aunt Sophia!"


    Sophia put the egg tart back into his te with a smile. "My food will arrive soon. Eat your breakfast,


    little one."


    As she spoke, a servant brought over two tes and ced them in front of her and Colin.


    But Ambrose insisted, "Aunt Sophia, there''s no egg tart in your te. Granny made them for me


    specially. See? I have two, I''ll give you one!"


    Sophia smiled at him. Gesturing to her te, she said, "No, thanks. I have steamed dumplings and


    eggs." There was also milk and fruit.


    But Ambrose put the egg tart back into her te. "You''re too skinny, auntie. You need to eat more, or


    you won''t have the strength to pick me up."


    Since Sophia was going to be his mother, she would hold him more often. Children were always held


    by their mothers.


    Sophia chuckled and didn''t refuse again. "Thank you, you''re so considerate! How about I trade your


    egg tart for my omelette?" Afraid Ambrose would get hungry, Sophia fed him the omelette.


    The others smiled as they watched Sophia and Ambrose''s interaction.


    Outside the Li Manor, Sophia watched Wendy and Ambrose get into the car before entering hers.
