Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 1209

Wendy looked at Leila and her son. Seeing Leila's eyes red from crying and Colin's white shirt wet with tears, she choked down her anger. "It's time for dinner. When are you going downstairs?"

"Sorry, Aunt Wendy. I'll go downstairs now." Leila wiped away her tears and smiled.

Wendy smiled back and nodded. "How about you, Colin? Sophia is waiting for you!"

"I'll go after I change my clothes."

"Well, I'll go down first. Hurry up!" After saying that, Wendy turned away.

The previous smile on the face was replaced by angry look.

Colin had gone too far! How could he hold Leila like that!

Wendy deliberately ignored the tears on Leila's face. If she went to comfort Leila, wouldn't it be unfair to Sophia?

Just as Colin was about to return to the bedroom, Leila asked softly, "Colin, can I use your bathroom and wash my face?"

He stopped. Because of grandfather's birthday, the rooms on the second floor were full. Thinking of this, he nodded.

They went into Colin's bedroom. Two suitcases were lying on the floor in a mess.

Colin pointed to the bathroom. "The bathroom is over there. I'll go change my clothes."

"Okay. Thank you, Colin!"

"You're welcome."

They then went their separate ways to fix themselves.

Wendy went downstairs and sat down next to Sophia, who looked up at Wendy anxiously. "Mom, you went upstairs..."

"Yes, I went up. Sophia, you can't back down now. Go upstairs and ask Colin to come down!" Wendy gently whispered in Sophia's ear.

Sophia bit her lips tightly and shook her head. She didn't want to see them cuddling together.

"Sophia, I'm on your side. Don't be afraid. Colin is your husband. If you don't fight for him, he'll end up with someone else!"

"..."

Sophia stood up from her seat and went upstairs.

There wasn't any trace of the two in the corridor. She glanced over to the bedroom and wondered if they went in.

Sophia stepped towards the bedroom door unconsciously. The door was ajar, so she pushed it gently.

Inside, Colin was standing by the bed, while Leila was raising herself on her tiptoes to tie his necktie for him.

"Colin, I can also tie a necktie. Are you surprised? Every time I come home, I tie it for my dad. My mom taught me!"

Colin didn't answer her. "Why isn't your mother here today?"

"Mom went back home, so she couldn't make it here."

"I see."

Once the tie was fastened, Leila beamed and held Colin's arm. "Go take a look in the mirror. You're so handsome!"

They walked to the direction of the mirror. The moment they turned around, they saw the silent woman outside the door.

Leila seemed guilty, and let go of Colin's arm immediately.

Colin watched the quiet girl with mixed feelings.

"Colin, mom asked me to remind you to go downstairs. Everyone is waiting for you. Are you ready? If you are, let's go." Sophia's voice was light and soft. She was too heartbroken to find her own voice.

"I'm ready." Colin picked up the suit and wore it. He wanted to follow Sophia, but she hurried downstairs ahead of them.

Sophia went down, walked around the living room, and went to her seat discreetly. Nobody noticed her.
