Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 1403

Aaron was horrified and bewildered. He tried to intervene several times already but couldn't manage to utter a single word. He finally turned back and left the coffee shop.

Inside the coffee shop, the atmosphere was as stiff. Flynn and Sophia stared at each other, but neither of them said a word.

In the end, Sophia was the one who broke the ice. "How did you know that I am here to meet my blind date?"

"I have overheard. Don't underestimate my skills, Sophia."

Sophia didn't believe a word he said. That's impossible! How could he overhear that! Anyway, she decided to be straightforward and maintain her composure, "I need to marry someone. And I'll marry him with Colin's child. That man should take the offer or just leave it on the table."

"Then, what do you think of me? I'm willing to do that for you." Flynn suggested in a sincere tone.

"No, you're too good a candidate. I don't have the heart to hurt you. I'm sorry. You know I would just hurt you if you stay with me." Sophia answered candidly.

But Flynn took that as a compliment. With interest brimming in his heart, he replied, "I don't mind to be hurt as long as you're the one I end up with. And I can marry you as quickly as you like. We can even get a marriage license now. What do you think of that?"

...

Aaron was thinking of calling Colin right now. But before he took out his phone, Sophia and Flynn walked out of the coffee shop together.

"Sister, let's go home. I told you that this man is not meant for you. I'm right." Aaron said in a satisfied tone, not knowing that a bad thing was bound to happen.

...

At The SL Group

In the conference room on the 22nd floor, Colin was presiding a conference with his senior managers. Then suddenly, his phone buzzed. The caller ID read Aaron Lo.

Colin hit the answer button, and Aaron's terrified voice came out. "Brother! A disaster is imminent! My sister and that man Flynn are going to the Civil Affairs Bureau! They are going to register their marriage! I honestly didn't see this coming!"

Colin was taken aback. He never saw this one coming out, too. Then he blurted out, "What the hell?!" He stood up from his chair immediately. The expression on his livid face horrified everyone in the room. They have never seen their boss get angry like this. All the attendees didn't dare to make a sound. They waited for Colin to finish speaking on his phone.

"It's true! They just departed right now! Brother, what do we do?! Tell me, please!" Aaron helplessly asked in a trembling voice. But Colin had already ended the call. There was no use to waste time anymore.

Putting away his phone, Colin announced to the managers, "You're dismissed!"

Everyone was looking at each other in despair and confusion. But Colin already strode out of the conference room and started running along the corridor. He needed to do something. And he needed to do it fast.

Outside The Civil Affairs Bureau

Flynn and Sophia were already waiting at the end of the queue. Horrified by the sight of other giggling couples, Sophia moved back a little. "Flynn, I think our decision was too rushed. Do you really think this will be the best for us? Are you sure that you will marry me?" Sophia said with an anxious look on her face. She was starting to regret her rash decision.

Her blind date actually wasn't Flynn today. She had no idea as to why he showed at the coffee shop. Perhaps Flynn had heard of the news and bribed the match maker. That could be the only explanation of what had happened.

Just now, he had also manipulated her into marrying him. Did Flynn do this because he wanted to grant her desires, or just because of his hidden intents?

"It doesn't matter. The sooner we marry, the better it would be." Flynn said calmly, but his fingers clenched as he held his ID card. He wanted this to be over with as quick as possible. He could not afford any delays anymore.

"What if that Nana isn't Colin's daughter?" What if Dorothy really lied to her? After all, she didn't even try to believe Colin's side of the issue. She actually wanted to talk to Dorothy again so that she could really sense if she was lying. But before she could even plan to visit Dorothy, Flynn already brought her directly to the the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Flynn rested his hands inside his pockets. He looked around while talking to her, "It's out of question. You already heard the girl calling Colin her daddy. But you won't feel that with me anymore. You don't have to worry about me having any illegitimate child. I'm clean as clean can be!"

Sophia paused for a second. She was thinking of something. "But I still think I shouldn't have rushed into this. Marriage is still a serious affair, you know." Before her sentence ended, running low on patience, Flynn dragged her into the Civil Affairs Bureau by her wrist.

Inside the office, they sat together at a table. A lot of forms were placed in front of them, waiting for their signatures and information.

Sophia wrote down her name, gender and age on the blanks provided.

However, Flynn suddenly stopped after filling in his name.

He asked, "Sophia, does Colin really love you?"

Sophia was rendered speechless. The truth was that she didn't know too. "I have no idea. If I was certain of his feelings for me, I wouldn't be here." She put down her pen too, and looked at Flynn. Her eyes seemed to be sad and confused.

They were already causing some delays, and they would have been scolded if the official wasn't Flynn's friend.
