Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 86

Colin was perplexed. "Where?"

"You can go to your Leila, Lola, Lisa or whatever. I'll cover for you when mom asks me." He immediately wanted to end her generosity.

Colin's face darkened. "What do you want?"

Was she angry again? Sophia sat up straight, and gave the check back to him. "Just give me a 10-million check. If you give me too much money, I'll get used to buying whatever I want." Spending money is addictive!

"You can buy whatever you want. Don't hesitate to ask me for more if you want to." Colin didn't take the check. He took some fish from the fish head with chopped peppers dish and put it on Sophia's rice.

Sophia almost gave in to the temptation but she shook her head quickly. "I'm afraid I might not be able to pay you back after we divorce."

"If you can't pay me back, you can sign a contract and stay with me for the rest of your life."

Sophia was silent. Sophia thought about Colin's suggestion. Sign a contract and stay with him forever? Something felt wrong with it.

"Put the check away and eat!" Colin took two bowls of mushroom soup, one for Sophia and the other for himself.

But the number on the check was too high. Sophia was wondering how to refuse it when Colin said, "Sophia, listen to me carefully. If you continue to buy cheap clothes in the pedestrian street again and refuse to use my money, I'll never let you go back to A Country." Colin took a graceful sip of the soup and added, "Do you believe me?"

Of course, Sophia believed him.

"But..."

"No. If I were you, I would take the check and get a car. Then buy pretty clothes and luxury bags that women love so much. Then I would turn to my husband if the money runs out because he is rich."

Sophia was speechless. She put the check away, swallowing a mouthful of rice. "If you were a woman, you'd be a siren! A siren willing to sell herself out to the highest bidder."

Colin hummed lightly and didn't deny her.

Sophia ate the fish and swallowed it down. "Colin, I don't want to buy bags and clothes because you've already bought so many for me. It will be too wasteful to buy any more."

The man looked at her in despair. "A lot of people look down on you and want you to be miserable. You can change and show them otherwise. It would be an achievement to improve yourself and be better than them."

He certainly had a point there, but Sophia replied, "As a CEO, you're supposed to teach me to improve inner beauty, like reading more."

Colin looked up at her and said lightly, "You should talk about inner beauty after you've improved your external beauty. You're still lacking in external beauty, so there is no need to discuss inner beauty with you."

Sophia was so angry, she wanted to throw her chopsticks at Colin. "Fine! I'll do as you say. Prepare to become bankrupt. I'll spend as much money as I can!'"

"Good, that's settled! Here's a credit card for you. There's no limit on it, and I'll have Mr. Ji pay for it. All you need to do is to spend as much as you want." A black gold card was pushed to her.

Colin's words reminded Sophia of the saying, "You're responsible for making money for the family and I'm responsible for my beauty."

Colin held a piece of pork and put it to her lips. Sophia opened her mouth and ate it by reflex. He said lightly, "Right!"

Oh. Happiness came too suddenly. Before Sophia could enjoy the moment, the pork she ate almost made her mouth explode.

She tried hard to swallow the pork as she ate some rice. She remained calm on the outside.

Beside her, Colin was eating his dinner gracefully and quietly. Suddenly, Sophia got an idea to prank Colin. She ate more pork. "Colin, can I kiss you?"

He stopped eating, laying down his chopsticks and taking a sip of the juice.

He seemed to assent to the request. Sophia rushed to him and settled herself on his lap. As if Colin would run away, she held his head tightly and kissed his lips.

The room fell into silence.

Oh God, the devil pepper was much spicier than what she had before!
