"Colby! What are you talking about?" Sophie hurriedly pushed the family crest back to Colby.
Even as an outsider, she knew the significance of the Costello family crest and was shocked that Colby would entrust such an important item to her.
"Sophie, once I give something away, I never take it back."
Colby placed the family crest on Sophie's chest. The Costello family crest signified the head of the Costello family. Possessing this crest was akin to having absolute authority within the Costello family.
Colby looked at Sophie, a smile in his eyes, and whispered softly, "You are the wife I have chosen."
Sophie's heart pounded like a drum, unsure of how to respond. In her past life, she had devoted herself to James and had never been chosen so decisively.
Now, Colby's words stirred something within her.
"I..."
Just as Sophie was about to speak, Adler's voice suddenly came from outside. "Colby, the dinner you asked me to buy..."
Adler's voice stopped abruptly upon seeing the scene inside. Sophie quickly stepped back from Colby.
Adler was holding a beautifully packaged meal box, and upon noticing Colby's dark expression, instantly realized his timing was off.
"Should I leave?" Adler hesitated.
"Don't go! I need to talk to you!" Sophie stepped forward, her mind in turmoil, mumbling unclearly, "I was just getting a bit hungry, what did you buy?"
"Colby asked me to get dinner since you probably hadn't eaten anything after work." Adler spoke while glancing at Colby's expression.
Wow, Colby looked furious!
