With these words, Colin just remembered he was the one that had invited the flirt, Herring. Now, it was impossible to send him away.
Sophia laughed sardonically and said, "Didn't Herring ask you to seduce me? Now that I'm yours, will you abandon me ungratefully?"
The man looked stunned, "What do you mean, you're mine?"
Sophia ignored his question and said, "Mr. Li, I'm leaving now."
Colin stubbed out his cigarette in the ashtray, suddenly kissing her red lips, "Sophie, you owe me 35 kisses. Tonight, you should pay them all."
There was no way she could protest, when he aggressively robbed her of her breath.
Since he just smoked a cigarette, his mouth was heavy with its taste.
But... The kiss lasted too long. One minute passed... Two minutes... Three minutes... Soon, Sophia got desperate.
Five minutes had passed when Colin finally let her go with wobbly legs.
Her face was flushed as she gasped for air.
"No! "Colin, you're taking advantage of me!" Sophia tried to bargain with him.
"What?" Without releasing Sophia, Colin lowered his head and listened to what she had to say.
"You can't kiss me for too long. It should only last a minute. Otherwise, I'll count the extra minutes as more kisses."
"Impossible!" Colin released her and walked to his office desk, turning the computer off.
Exasperated, Sophia behaved recklessly, "Then, I won't file for a leave!" He had cheated two kisses out of her.
"Fine!" Colin put on his coat and agreed.
When Sophia turned around, she heard Colin's voice from behind, "Your father must miss you a lot, but you haven't visited him for a long time. He must feel very sad."
...
Sophia stopped in her tracks. With her back to Colin, she closed her eyes.
After a while, she fiercely turned around and snapped at the man fixing the buttons of his coat.
"Are you threatening me?"
"I never said I was a kind and merciful man." Colin didn't even try to deny her accusations.
Sophia didn't respond.
Her face turned red with anger, and the words left her mouth with some difficulty, "I want a divorce! I'm calling mother!"
Her words stopped Colin's movements. "Sophia, you're not thinking straight. I have the final say on when our marriage will end."
Sophia pulled at her clothes. She suddenly remembered that Colin was the one who bought these clothes for her.
Her anger quickly dissipated, "Okay."
Colin stared at the woman who had suddenly changed her mind, "Sophia, what are you doing?"
She said softly, "Don't worry. Let's just get out of here."
Obviously she wasn't herself. Colin raised her chin to look into her eyes.
The doubt in his eyes made her feel helpless. "I... I'm your wife. I shouldn't talk back to you."
"That's it?"
"Yes."
"Kiss me."
"..." Sophia stood on her tiptoes and kissed him.
She gave him a simple kiss, before backing away from him.
Satisfied with her good behavior, Colin smiled. He embraced her tightly and kissed her.
...
Leaving the office, Colin took Sophia to a restaurant for dinner.
Sophia's change in attitude made for a harmonious atmosphere.
