Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 32

With unmistakable anxiety in his voice, Herring asked, " "Dude, are you sure you haven't changed your mind? You really want me to seduce your wife?"

"Yeah, I do!" Colin, though, was already filled with a sense of regret.

"Come on… I mean. Your wife is really fun! She's like a fine cup of tea, tasty, but you can always find a greater hidden depth of flavor." Colin had already hung up the phone.

Herring found himself speaking to the dial tone.

Herring looked at the woman in front of him, and shrugged, "Your brother is so heartless."

Shelly Li remained silent for a long time before finally speaking, "He's still better than a man who falls for every woman he meets.."

"......"

Sophia had clearly overheard the conversation between Colin and Herring. So Colin had sent Herring to seduce her!

Wow. There really was nothing Colin wouldn't do to achieve his goals. He would leave no stone unturned in his quest to divorce her.

Colin restrained Sophia from behind. Sophia shoved back angrily. "Get your hands off me!"

"Did you…overhear?" The room was dead silent. Of course she was able to hear their conversation.

"Shut up and go to sleep! And get the hell out of my house by the morning!" Sophia closed her eyes. She was fuming but tried her best to ignore him.

But Sophia felt a pain gradually rising in her chest. How could she feel heartbroken for such a man? She thought to herself. How?

"We've already moved on from that.." Colin turned to her, put his head up on his right arm and tried to explain.

He was met with silence.

"Sophia, I mean it! I can make Herring leave tomorrow!"

Colin thought that chasing Herring away might very well make him feel better, too.

"There's no need to send him away. I like him. If you send him away, I'd be very unhappy!"

"......" This time Colin remained silent.

His eyes widened with anger in the dark. His Sophia just told him, that she liked Herring! Goddamn it!

Colin pulled back his arm and rolled over on top of her.

"You are no allowed to like Herring! I forbid you!"

"Your opinion means nothing to me. I've already fallen for him. You were a good match maker after all." Sophia opened her eyes. Their eyes met in the dark room. His seemed to glow with anger.

He was angry? Why? This was his plan. After all, he was the one who had put Herring and her together.

Colin lowered his head to kiss her. But Sophia covered her mouth with her hands, and mumbled, "Colin, I'm in love with another man! Soon, you'll get the divorce you've wanted for so long."

......

After a long time, Colin collapsed on the bed, and remained silent for a long while.

Sophia soon fell asleep with random thoughts bouncing around in her head. Colin listened to the rhythm of her breath and stared at the ceiling. His mind was racing with conflicting emotions.

Day broke.

When Sophia woke up, she was alone on the bed.

However, the breakfast on the kitchen table reminded her that Colin had stayed over the last night.

Was his leaving so abruptly a sign? Maybe it signaled the end of their relationship.

Last night.... Sophia decided to let it go for the time being.

The food on the table included beautifully packaged soup packets, porridge, and a few dishes. It would be a shame if she didn't eat them up. Sophia ate everything. Feeling bloated, she massaged her stomach.
