Of course, Dorothy's baby was important. If Dorothy can't hold her baby in her arms, how could she experience Sophia's suffering?
"Bye, Colin. Be careful on your way back." When Dorothy moved to walk Colin to the door, he refused.
After Colin left, Marcella and Dorothy beamed at each other. "Our time has finally come! My daughter will become a queen." Marcella said proudly.
"Mom, after I get married, I'll use things of the best quality. I'll enjoy the most delicious food. We should hire a Michelin-starred chef. I know you love French cuisine. I'll reserve all the tables in this restaurant, so you can enjoy your meals by yourself." Dorothy was quick to please her mother.
"Oh, my daughter, you're so kind to your mother."
After leaving the restaurant, Colin rubbed his grumbling stomach and called Sophia. "Where are you?"
"I'm cooking dinner at home." Sophia answered. Since it wasn't busy at the office, she went home early.
"Wait for me. I'm on my way." Hanging up the phone, he got into his Cayenne and told Aaron to take them home.
After the call, Sophia wondered if Colin meant he would come and have dinner with her.
It seemed that was the case. She decided to cook more dishes.
When Colin and Aaron entered the Lo House, Sophia had finished preparing dinner. "Wash your hands before eating."
"Okay." Aaron went to the toilet first.
Colin gathered Sophia in his arms and kissed her passionately.
Sophia was confused. What's going on? Why did Colin suddenly kiss her?
When the bathroom door opened, Sophia pushed Colin away. She blushed in embarrassment and didn't look at him. "Hurry up and wash your hands!"
Smiling fondly, Colin went to the bathroom.
The three had a quiet dinner. Wiping his mouth, Aaron said, "I'm going out tonight. I'll leave you two alone to have fun."
Sophia glared at her brother fiercely. But Colin nodded in satisfaction. "If you need a place to stay, you can get a free room at the No. 8 Cruise Ship."
"Thank you, brother." Aaron replied gratefully. He bid them goodbye and left.
Sophia cleaned the kitchen while Colin sat on the couch and watched Sophia's back, deep in thought.
Despite not knowing that Ambrose was her son, Sophia still loved him like her biological son.
And even though she didn't know the reason he was marrying Dorothy, she was good to him.
He made a decision to never disappoint Sophia in his life. "Sophia."
"Hmm, what's up?" Sophia turned around.
"I want to drink some water."
Sophia raised her hands covered in detergent. "Get it yourself. I'm busy. Unless you want a glass of detergent water?" Colin smiled.
"Are you thirsty? I can squeeze some fruit juice for you." He remembered that Sophia likes fresh fruit juice.
Sophia was confused. She shot Colin an odd look. Why was Colin doing this? Why was he suddenly attentive?
Before Sophia could shake her head, Colin stood up. He opened the refrigerator and took out three oranges. "Is orange juice alright?"
"Do you know how to make orange juice?" Sophia asked. She had never seen Colin do housework, much less squeeze orange juice.
Colin kissed her. "You can show me."
Sophia looked at him helplessly. She knew he didn't know how to do it! "Take a seat. After I wash the plates, I'll do it."
Colin took out the necessary tools and pecked her lips, shooting her a glance. "Don't look down on your man."
Sophia doubted that Colin would be good at housework. Rolling her eyes, she said, "You're amazing. After all, you're the CEO of a large corporation. Is there anything that you can't do? I shouldn't have questioned your ability."
