Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 13

While walking to the corner of the residential area, Sophia Lo heard a car come up behind her. She instinctively knew that it was Colin's car. But she did not stop to look back. Instead, she climbed onto the pavement, and walked faster.

Two minutes later, a Porsche screeched to a stop in front of her, completely blocking her way. Colin!

"Get in the car!"

Sophia Lo ignored him, and decided to go around.

Colin spoke again. "If you don't get in the car, you will be considered absent. If you get in, I can tell the attendance department that you were out working with me at noon."

Sophia Lo "..."

She tried to open the rear door but couldn't...

"Come and sit in front!" Colin unlocked the front passenger door.

Sophia Lo had to listen to him. She slid into the car seat obediently.

The car slowly drove out of the residential area, and then picked up speed on the main road.

"Tell me who hit you in the face!"

"Me!" Sophia thought he was questioning what happened last night, so she answered without thinking.

Colin looked at her curiously. "I'm talking about your face!"

The redness on Sophia's face had subsided quite a bit once she had applied ice. She had hoped to cover the rest with a layer of powder.

"It doesn't matter who hit me. What does matter is that I was refused leave despite being injured. Isn't it the result you wanted to see? You want me to give up, leave SL, and then you."

Colin tightened his grip on the steering wheel, and asked, "Do you really believe in your heart that I organized all this, including the person that hit you, and manager Chu?"

She sat in silence.

It was hard to say.

Silence filled the car. After a while, she began to talk. "Miss Chiao is beautiful, and trusted by you. Will you be willing to punish her?"

Trusted by him? Why didn't he know it?

He intended to explain, but the hurt reflecting on her face stopped him.

Perhaps, more personal challenges would make her retreat, and leave the place that didn't belong to her.

Colin remained silent as they arrived at the company. There was a lot of disappointment in her heart. She asked too much from this man.

Sophia, you are so naive. Did you really expect reassurance from a man who is trying hard to drive you away?

At their arrival at the company, Sophia reported to Wade Chi that she had been working with Colin.

Hearing that she was out working with Mr. Li, Jamie glared at her.

Ignoring Jamie, Sophia began to work in earnest.

Night fell quickly, and Sophia looked at the contract in her hands, in a daze.

She didn't want to see Payne Tai at all. She was afraid she would choke him...

Closer to the appointed time, Sophia took the contract from the table, put it in her bag, and clocked out. She then walked out of the company.

Room 606, on the 66th floor, Royal Hotel.
