Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 43

"Why do you bother asking? You already know." Sophia blushed, which was rare.

"Great! Colin finally becomes a man!" He really admired Colin's willpower. Colin had been a virgin for thirty years.

Sophia didn't want to continue this topic, so she changed the subject by asking, "Herring, so you're really working here?"

"Uh-huh, I promised your husband that I'd work here for three months. And after that, I'll have the investment I need for my company." The investment advisory firm that Herring had registered was about to go bankrupt. He had never been there nor had he handled any problems. His underlings oversaw everything.

The company was now on its last legs. Funds were needed to sustain the company. And Herring was ready to invest more money in it.

However, in order to get Herring's help, Colin had offered to invest in his company and to hire professionals for him to run the company.

And of course, Herring had agreed.

"Did you promise him..." Sophia stopped before she could finish the sentence.

Never mind, why bother to bring that up? Sophia had guessed that Colin had seduced Herring into taking her away.

Herring rested on the desk leisurely and said, "Sophia, you finally bought yourself some clothes!"

"What?" That sounded like she had been coming to work in her birthday suit all this while.

Herring pointed at her light blue shirt, "Well, I suppose the shirt you're wearing is TER. This shirt would cost you about two-month salary. Wait, did Colin buy you this?"

It was possible that Sophia bought one fancy item of clothing. But from head to foot, inside and out, she was wearing only branded clothes. That was unusual.

Herring had been with so many women and so he could tell just by the look of it. And he knew most women's brands, Because he often bought clothes for the women he spent time with.

Also, the skateboard shoes on her feet were name-brand products. If he remembered correctly, shoes of this brand were worth at least 10, 000 a pair!

No one would be so generous except Colin. So it seemed that their relationship was headed in the right direction.

Sophia nodded in surprise. She could tell that her shirt was not cheap, but she didn't know it was so costly either.

Her monthly pay at SL was 8, 000, not counting bonuses. Herring said this shirt would take two months of her wages, then it would be nearly 20, 000... She looked at her shirt in surprise! Was this made of gold?

Why would Colin buy such expensive clothes for her?

"Husbands buy clothes for their wives. It's perfectly justified! If they didn't, then that would be odd. Don't stress about it." Herring tried to reassure Sophia and patted her on the shoulder.

Sophia nodded. She knew it was like the evening dress Herring had bought her. She had put it on and now, there was no way to return it to the store.

Okay! She would remember all that Colin had done for her!

She just couldn't get why Colin was being so good to her. Especially since he still insisted on divorcing her.

He had made Payne and Dorothy apologize to her and had bought her high-end clothes. Did Colin want to compensate her for sleeping with him last night?

Sophia's brain was in a mess with all these questions. She tried to focus on work. She didn't want to think anymore.

This was no big deal. She could be better to Colin in return. But how?

He was her boss. He had enough money. He didn't want anything!

It seemed that it would be better to ask him later.

When Wade released the announcement as per Colin's instructions, there was an uproar among the female workers. They surmised that Mr. Li made this announcement for Sophia's sake.
