Dorothy had come to check on Colin because she heard that he had come to the room with a woman in his arms.
And Colin answering the bell wearing just a bathrobe, made it hard for Dorothy not to think of anything else. Her discomfort made her clench her fists at her sides.
"I'm good," replied Colin. "So what brought you here?" Colin firmly stood beside the door. He had no intention of inviting her in.
"Nothing much. Can I wait inside so we could leave together?" Saying so, Dorothy tried to step inside. She really wanted to find out which woman had the guts to seduce her fiance.
Colin understood her intentions. He solidly stood in front of her. "That won't be necessary. I have some other business to deal with. You do not need to wait for me," he dismissed her.
"What about mom's birthday party tomorrow night?" Dorothy piteously looked at her fiance.
"I'll be there."
She could not think of any other excuse to continue talking to Colin. She could also make out that he was a little irritated, so she decided to leave. But had it been Payne standing in front of her just now, she might have already slapped him. But this man was Colin, tremendously superior than Payne in all aspects.
Dorothy put on a gentle smile. "Okay. I'll leave then. Be careful while driving."
Colin didn't bother answering. He closed the door before she had finished the sentence.
Looking back at the closed door, Dorothy felt wretched for herself. She knew she couldn't dare to be angry even when treated like this.
Although Colin and she had been engaged for three years, he still hung out with different girls. That Maeve, for instance, was one of them. And Dorothy could not complain even about this to him.
Therefore, she desperately waited for the end of the next month, when she would become Mrs. Li and have the right to stave off all these trollops.
As for now, she could only let Colin have his fun. She understood that a girl was always by Colin's side because he was a man of excellence. All the girls wanted to be seen with him.
The moment Sophia stepped out of the bathroom, she was surrounded by Colin's strong arms. He bent down and kissed her red, luscious lips.
She tried to escape, but couldn't. She did not want to do anything as she had just applied medicine on certain parts of her body that still hurt.
Besides, she had soaked in water, which must have inflamed her wounds.
"No..." She grabbed the chance when he stopped to breathe and covered his unbridled lips with her soft hand.
Colin was confused. But he soon understood the problem after Sophia stammered her reason.
However, she couldn't get away from him so easily...
After she brushed her teeth, she quickly put on her clothes when Colin went to the bathroom again.
Just as she was about to leave, the door of the bathroom opened and she heard a loud, "Wait!"
Sophia turned around. "I am meeting a friend for dinner, Colin!" she said in a voice full of exasperation. It was not even 5 yet.
He ignored her words and put on the clothes the manager had brought.
Soon he was fully dressed. "Noting but a dressed-up beast," Sophia looked at Colin and thought to herself.
Clearing up her mind, Sophia asked, "Is there anything else?"
"Yes." Colin picked up an expensive watch and started wearing it on his wrist. He looked at her and said, "I need you to come with me to the mall nearby to pick a gift."
"A gift? For whom?"
Colin checked to see that the watch was fastened properly and then said, "My future mother-in-law!"
... Sophia's heart ached for a moment when she heard these words from his mouth.
But she hated it when she was easily influenced emotionally.
She put up a frail smile. "Sure. It would be an honor!"
Saying this, she elegantly walked towards the door.
However, her joints had turned white because she was holding her purse so tightly.
