Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 1229

Colin's phone was connected to the car's Bluetooth. When Sophia called, the call automatically connected to the speakers. Everyone in the car could hear their conversation.

"I'll go back home and take you to the hospital." Colin ended the call and pulled over.

Leila remained quiet. Colin turned to her as she unbuckled her seatbelt. "Leila, you have to go without me. You can call a taxi. I'll ask Mr. Ji to meet you there and accompany you."

"Colin, is Sophia upset with me?" Leila held her handbag so tight, her knuckles turned white.

Colin snorted. "Of course not. Why would you ask that? Wait here, I'll get a cab for you."

Colin got off the car. Standing by the side of the road, he made a quick phone call to Wade.

After hailing a cab for Leila, Colin watched her enter and took a picture of the license plate number. He paid the driver in advance and waved goodbye as he watched the car drive away.

He got into his car, and drove back to the villa.

In the villa, Sophia was pretending to be ill in bed. When the door opened, she swiftly turned and saw Colin.

He came back alone.

Since Leila didn't come back with him, there was no need for her to pretend to be sick.

Getting off the bed, she asked sarcastically, "Why didn't you bring your little sister with you?"

Colin lay down next to her in bed. "I don't want to see you burn with jealousy."

Sophia glared at him. What an egotistical man, she wasn't jealous at all!

"I did you a favor, Mr. Li. What's my reward?" She sat in front of the computer and got ready to work.

"You want a reward? You can have me all night." Colin replied, twirling the car keys around his finger.

Sophia looked to him with feigned horror. "I dare not! I don't want to upset your childhood sweetheart!"

Colin's face instantly turned dark. But Sophia wasn't afraid of him. Rolling her eyes, she said, "Go back to your own room!"

...

Colin was impressed. Sophia had become bolder since they first met. But that was a good sign, it meant that they were getting closer.

Colin didn't go away. He walked up to her with a grin on his face. Sophia jumped off the chair when she saw him approach. "Colin, I'm warning you! Don't come near me!"

"Warning me?" Colin stood before her, lifting her chin with his fingers and looking down at her.

"Yes! I'm warning you! What if your childhood sweetheart comes back and sees us? What if she bursts into tears?"

"What the hell are you talking about?" Colin let go of her, and went out the bedroom with his hands in pockets.

...

Was Colin angry again?

Just as Sophia sat in front of her computer and prepared to type, her bedroom door opened again and Colin entered.

"Come with me."

"Where?"

"Why are you asking? Just come with me!" Colin's patience ran out. He took her coat and dragged her out.

"Wait! my phone!" Sophia pointed at her phone on the desk.

Colin didn't stop. "Why do you need your phone while you're with me? Give me your full attention."
