Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 1312

"Yes!" Ambrose answered dauntlessly.

Colin found himself utterly speechless. He paused for a while and then tried to put his idea across the table. "Okay. There are two options for you. First, you can make her your girlfriend. And that will be easy for everybody. Then the second thing is I can make her... your mother."

... Pondering about what is happening and what will happen, they both stayed silent for a while.

Finally, Ambrose broke the silence and shouted as loud as he could, "Grandma! Your son is coming after my girlfriend!"

Colin hissed at him, "Shut up! You're ruining everything!"

Ambrose knew everybody was already asleep. Yet, it didn't stop him to say it loud. He did that on purpose.

Ambrose grabbed Colin's arm and turned serious. "Colin, I am telling you. Sophia Lo would be mine sooner or later. You know I could do that and I'll make sure I will. So stay away from her!"

The son sternly warned his father. But the father had other plans in mind. Suddenly, Colin got hold of Ambrose, laid him down on his legs and spanked his bottom three times...

Pak! Pak! Pak!

"Nooooo! Waaaa!" Ambrose seemed to burst into tears and spitefully blurted out, "Colin... you are my enemy now! You stay away from me too! Huhuhu..." Ambrose felt very sad and blue. Never in his life had he imagined that his beloved Daddy would want to grab from him the woman he loved.

Colin put Ambrose down on the bed and said, "So, do you really want to have a fight with me over a woman? You know, it will end badly for you, Ambrose."

Ambrose pretended to be weeping as he tried to wipe the tears that hadn't even come down. He nodded heavily and said, "Yes! I think you should give up, or I will fight you through the bitter end. You are 34 years old already! You are an old man now! How can you compete for a girl with a young man like me? Aren't you too old for chasing girls? Young men always triumph over old men in this sort of thing.

... Why were they both falling in love with that woman? What did he see in Sophia that prompted Ambrose to fight against his father rather than giving up?

Colin tucked Ambrose into the bed again and said, "Just go to sleep!"

"No. I don't want to! "If you don't give up, I will run away with Sophia! And you will never see me again!" Ambrose tried to threaten his father. Ambrose was thinking about running away with Sophia. If only he could be with Sophia, he would not fear anything at all. He was not afraid of what Colin would do to him because he knew that he can survive any challenges.

Colin playfully pointed at Ambrose's nose, fixed his eyes on his and said, "Go to sleep now, or I won't let you see Sophia again. You're in way over your head."

'Fine, but this is not over.' Ambrose bravely said to himself. Then he closed his eyes and tried to sleep.

For now, they will call a truce. But both of them knew that this truce was just temporary.

Colin was fretting endlessly over Sophia and Ambrose. When he got back to his room, he threw his phone on the bed and untied his tie rather hastily.

"Now that you have decided to marry another woman, I would distance myself from you. You give me no other choice..." Colin could still clearly remember what Sophia said to him. Why did these words bother him so much? In reality, he should not care about this anymore.

They were already divorced. He could marry whoever he wanted to be with. It was none of her business to poke about what he would do from that point on. 'Distance myself... so she had decided to give up on me? She would just quit that easily?' Colin said to himself, sneering while thinking of Sophia's lovely face.

Maybe he was just overthinking everything. The present issues in his life have caused him so much anxieties. Maybe Sophia did not even like him.

...

In the CEO Office of the Pei Group

Jonas and Hugh were glaring at each other. Neither of them will back down. Jonas pounded on the table angrily, and shouted, "Aren't you my own damn son? What are you thinking by bringing Sophia to our company? You, of all people, know that she is an enemy! Do you actually believe that she would appreciate you giving her the opportunity to work here? You're absolutely wrong! She is not that simple-minded! How could we ever trust that woman again?! Now, she has suddenly become our chief designer. It only took her two months to get that position. Don't you see what she is doing? Don't you see why she wanted to work for us? She works hard just for the position. Just for the sake of being promoted! She doesn't really want to help us!"

Hugh just sneered at Jonas but stayed quiet for a while. Even if Sophia was here for another purpose, Hugh would not care about it. He believed that the Pei Family owed her a lot, and they just refused to admit that fact. Finally Hugh replied in a cold manner, "So? No one in our company works harder than her! She has earned her place in our company."

No one could deny Sophia's effort. She always was the last one to leave the office. She gave her everything for the company. All of her designs were perfect because she would not allow any flaws to ruin the group's image. She would even cancel her personal plans if she needed to work beyond the office hours.
