Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 1160

Colin looked at Sophia as she spoke a thousand words a minute.

She was very chatty today because she was in a good mood.

You could describe her as stubborn, eloquent, calculating and a lover of food. Her physical appearance was a testament to her passion for eating.

"Colin..." she stuffed a melon seed in her mouth, "... Umm, I want to resign."

Colin looked at her in silence, then replied.

"Good."

This response made Sophia frown. She wasn't expecting him to respond so coldly.

"I will only quit after they pay me my salary."

This grabbed Colin's attention. "Why are you going to wait for you salary? That's a stupid idea Sophia." Colin's words flowed out, uninhibited.

Sophia stood up from the stool immediately "Colin, why would you say something like that? I'm not stupid!"

Colin shook his head. Sophia had a bad habit of hearing what she wanted to hear.

Her listening skills were wanting. Sophia, furious with rage boiling underneath the surface, blamed herself for marrying Colin, who was simply an asshole. He was always insulting her and she didn't know why.

Colin reached out and took her hand, gesturing her to sit back down.

"Sophia, you didn't listen to what I said. I said that your idea is a stupid one, not that you are stupid."

"But since the idea came from my mind, and its a stupid one, then aren't you inadvertently calling me stupid?" Sophia retorted, taking Colin by surprise. Colin looked at his wife, and for a second, felt that he was wrong to underestimate her capability to reason. However, he was a proud man and never apologised. His ego couldn't allow him to.

"Let's not argue over semantics. My issue is with your plan.

So, let me get this straight, you plan to quit, go back to Nation A, get close to your enemy, find a job, and take a chance to revenge him?" Sophia saw him differently. Could he read my mind? She thought. She nodded to the affirmative to his words.

Colin laughed sarcastically. A flush of anger washed over Sophia's face. "What are you laughing at?"

"Sophia, you do have a pig brain. What makes you think that you can take revenge on the daughter of Lien Clan? The Lien Clan could ruin you easily using their power and influence. It's a fool's errand." They both knew that Colin was telling the truth.

The Lien Clan held a stable position in Nation A. Though Dorothy, her sworn enemy, had no power, her family did have.

If the daughter of Lien Clan was hurt by anyone, they would make sure that the person responsible was dealt with accordingly.

It was very dangerous, and Sophia knew that she had to be careful.

But deep down she knew that she would take her revenge someday. "I will not take my revenge right now." She responded to her husband's searching looks.

Colin leaned back in his chair and squinted at her. "Okay, but if you are dead set on taking any revenge, I would be more comfortable if you had support."

"Well, I have you..." Sophia looked longingly into his eyes.

"Ha! What can I do? Not me Honey. Another powerful clan, perhaps one that is of a high rank and has a greater influence than the Lien's." Colin chuckled at his wife's naivety. Sophia sat back and thought for a moment. "Perhaps the Huo Clan. I heard that they have a great influence in Nation A. Maybe I can find support from Herring..."

Colin was speechless. He couldn't believe that she was thinking of Herring.

"Sophia, you are my wife but you are thinking of another man. How dare you?"

Sophia bit her tongue. She was disappointed in herself for not thinking through her words. She had a history with Herring, one that Colin knew all too well about. It was no secret that Colin despised Herring because of this.

But despite this, she was angry. "Your wife? Colin, you never treat me like your wife? You belittle me and always threaten to divorce me. Why do you care all of a sudden?" Colin squinted his eyes and sat speechless.

Unbeknownst to Sophia, Colin did want to divorce her, and asked the playboy Herring to seduce her. He wanted to get rid of her.

However, he changed his mind just as soon as he asked Herring to undertake this task. Twice, he had caught Sophia and Herring in an embrace, and Sophia looked very happy. He became jealous and forbid her from seeing Herring.

Even though he didn't love her, he didn't want her to be with another man. It was embarrassing for him.
