Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 248

Ambrose got the hint, so he immediately burst into tears. "Aunt Sophia, do you hate me? I like you so much, but why don't you want to stay here to keep me company. I feel angry!" He continued crying.

After he finished his words, Ambrose ran over to the stairs. Sophia's heart broke as she saw him cry. As Ambrose was about to go upstairs, she caught up with him and held him in her arms, saying, "Ambrose, I didn't mean that. Don't cry."

Ambrose rubbed his eyes with his hands and sobbed some more, pleading, "Can you sleep with me tonight? Or can you bring me home with you?"

"..." It was the first time that Sophia had seen Ambrose depend on her so much.

She really didn't know whether she should be happy or not. She touched Ambrose's head and said, "Okay, Ambrose, I will lull you to sleep."

After he heard her, Ambrose clapped his hands and happily hugged her. "Okay. Auntie Sophia, you should keep your words!"

When Sophia looked at Ambrose again, she didn't see any tears in his eyes or on his face. She was fooled by this naughty kid! Alas! She massaged Ambrose's head, carried him to Jordan and Wendy, and timidly said, "I will stay here tonight. I promise I won't bother you at all."

This time, Jordan and Wendy nodded at the same time... Wendy secretly gave Ambrose a thumb-up. Then, she pretended not to know what had happened just now and asked a servant to bring some fruits to them.

Sophia sat back in her seat which was beside Colin's. He looked inhospitable...

Alas! She just hoped that she wouldn't feel so awkward after he married. But she knew she still displeased him.

She wondered whether he thought of her situation...

When Sophia almost couldn't stand Colin's indifference, Jordan asked Colin to go to his study together.

In the study

They sat opposite each other at the tea table. Jordan boiled the water in the kettle, took out some raw Pu'er tea leaves, and put them into the purple clay teapot.

Colin played with the purple clay tea pet* on the tea table and flatly asked, (*TN: Tea pet is a small clay figure kept by tea drinkers for good luck.) "Father, do you want to talk to me about Sophia?"

Jordan nodded and said, "You're already in your thirties. I should have let you deal with your matters by yourself. You also saw that she tried to keep her distance from you, but why didn't you let her?"

Jordan didn't agree to let Sophia leave because he saw Colin's expression.

"Why do I need to stay away from her?"

Jordan poured the boiling water into the teapot and washed the raw Pu'er tea leaves twice. "Why do you need to stay away from her? You and Dorothy have already taken your pre-wedding photos and are going to get married at the end of the month. What do you want Sophia to do? Do you want her to be your mistress?"

"Colin, I think you know what Sophia is trying to do. Even though she came to our house several times, I could feel that she tried to keep her distance from you. She wants to get close to you, but she also doesn't dare to do it. I think you know why."

Wendy had told Jordan to retell her words to Colin. She thought that Colin would listen to Jordan, and Jordan had to obey.

Colin knew what this was all about and said, "Father, this would all be resolved in less than a month."

"Resolved? How? Can you tell me?" Jordan thought that Sophia was a good person. Although the Li Clan's reputation dwindled because of her ruthless behaviors before, they never cared about what other people thought.

They liked Sophia. Besides, Colin had once told Jordan that Sophia didn't do anything wrong, nor did she cheat on him.
