Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 224

Sitting squarely on the driver's seat, Hugh hurriedly put on his clean shoes and threw aside the muddy ones into a trash can nearby. After that, he instantly drove away.

Inside the expensive and sophisticated Porsche Cayenne, Colin opened the shoe box, took out the fancy leisure shoes, and personally helped Sophia to put them on. It was really a sweet gesture that Sophia was not used to.

Knowing that it was no use to refuse his gesture, Sophia just tightly bit her lips, and stared at Colin's handsome features while she let him help put on her shoes. Why was he doing this? Was he trying to pursue her again?

"Next time that you visit Auntie Hemosa, call me and I'll go with you. No ifs and buts. I'll go with you." He set the shoe box aside, and then casually leaned back on his chair.

She couldn't say anything just yet. Her anger still consumed and her mind was going places.

Colin did not mind at all. He knew he should let Sophia think for a while. Then he turned to Aaron, "Take us to the Redbud Mansion."

"Okay, brother-in-law."

Not until then did Sophia finally open her mouth, "Aaron, I don't want to go there. Take me home. I'm your sister. Let's go home, instead."

Aaron chuckled and said, "My dear sister, brother-in-law has been waiting for you all night long. Don't be so stubborn!"

…… Stubborn? Was she really the one who was stubborn? After everything that happened?

So what if he has been waiting for her all night long? Well, he should wait some more. In reality, she did not even force him to wait. It was not her fault.

"Aaron, I will be really angry if you don't send me home!" At first, she was just angry with Colin. But now she was angry with both of them? Why was Aaron so loyal to Colin, and not to her?

For fear that Sophia would be really mad at him, Aaron begged her, "Sister, please don't be angry! I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do! Brother-in-law, how..."

"Brother-in-law? Do not call him brother-in-law! I don't want to hear you calling him that again!" "He will marry another woman soon. How many times have I told you not to call him the wrong way! He's not part of the family anymore!"

...... Before the two men got wind of what was happening, Sophia was already extremely angry!

Facing her anger, Colin told Aaron in a low voice, "Take us to your home. It's okay."

"No. You can't step foot in my home!" Sophia looked at the man next to her, "And, how much are the shoes? I will transfer the money to you right now! I don't want your help!"

After those words, she took down her backpack, pulled out her phone and prepared to transfer the money to him.

"One million! That's how much those shoes cost." He wanted to test her.

Sophia opened her eyes wide and was bewildered. "Colin, have you gone robbing banks? Are you testing my intelligence and common sense? A pair of leisure shoes does not cost one million! That's impossible!"

"Of course, you're right. The price of a pair of shoes won't be a million dollars. In fact, it was only 10, 000. But in order to buy you the shoes, I used my precious time, my resources, my oil and my car...... You are supposed to pay for them! So all in all, the price is actually far higher than one million. I just cut the whole price into half for you!"

Sophia was utterly speechless because of his arrogance. How could he even demand a price for his time? And even a fee for his resources? How dare he! Oh, it would be normal for Colin to ask for 10 million. That's right! Because he was Colin. The arrogant and selfish Colin!

He did not ignore the brimming irony in her eyes. Then he scowled and told her, "Sophia, I know this is hard for you. But I just want to take care of you. That's all."

"I can take care of myself. Please go to your fiancee. She can please you! Don't come to me just because you were waiting for me and that you are unhappy."

Aaron was rendered speechless as he did not dare to even make any sound. He has been living with Sophia for nearly 20 years already, but this was the first time that he saw her in such bad temper.

Then Colin suddenly held her chin and lifted her face so she could see him right in the eyes. Looking through the intimidating expression in his eyes, she suddenly felt a little regretful of being stubborn. It seemed that Colin was fond of obedient woman. He did not want a woman who will not follow him. And in order to take care of Brody, she has to be obedient. Was that right?

She was counting on herself to defeat Dorothy and make Brody call her Mommy! She knew that Brody and Dorothy weren't even close yet.

...

"Sophia Lo, you can't hide your real self anymore, can you? Why are you being stubborn like this?" Years ago, when they just got married, Sophia would always be stubborn like this. Her attitude and harsh words always made him feel very uncomfortable.

He didn't know why Sophia became...... stronger and resentful. He didn't know why she would always go up against him.

Now she was much stronger and more independent. But why does it feel that he actually preferred her to be like this? He couldn't understand himself.

Now he sensed that the more rebellious she became, the more comfortable he felt......

"Pak!" Slapping off his hands from her face, Sophia lowered her head and stared at the screen of her mobile phone. "Okay, one million! I will immediately transfer one million to you! You know I have the money for that, right?"

It was just that if she paid the one million, she would be back to her previous life of being poor. She would not be able to pay for her dinner at all. She couldn't even afford any food that she wanted to eat.
