Gordon's car dropped Sophie off outside her apartment.
With a heavy heart, Sophie got out of the car and had just reached the apartment entrance when the security guard suddenly called out to her, "Ms. Sophie!"
Sophie frowned and asked, "What's up?"
"A gentleman came by looking for you, and he's been waiting inside for an hour."
Saying so, the security guard pointed towards the lobby's front desk, where Sophie could clearly see Colby's figure.
Sophie said coldly, "I'm not familiar with him. Tell him to leave."
"Alright, I'll send him away!"
Just as the security guard was about to leave, Sophie's heart softened, "Come back!"
"Uh?"
"…Let him in."
The security guard was taken aback, thinking he had heard wrong. Wasn't she not familiar with him? Why was she letting him in?
"Ms. Sophie, we have a policy here. If you're being harassed, you can tell me directly, and I'll send the person away!"
"Harassed? He's my boyfriend."
"What?" The security guard was stunned.
Boyfriend?
The security guard glanced at his phone, which was currently showing news of Sophie and James announcing their reconciliation, arm in arm.
'This... this doesn't look like a single person.'
The guard scratched his head in confusion but still went to the front desk and said to Colby, "Mr. Burke, your wife is calling you over."
"What did you call me?"
"Mr. Burke?"
At that moment, Colby's gaze was sharp enough to cut through steel.
The security guard couldn't figure out what he had said wrong, but he felt a chill down his spine.
Colby followed Sophie like a child who had done something wrong. He didn't dare to get too close to her. Once in the elevator, the two stood in silence. Sophie was the first to step out, followed closely by Colby. When Sophie was about to unlock her door, she turned to look at Colby, who was standing at the other end of the corridor, and said, "How long are you planning to follow me?"
Colby pursed his lips, always at a loss for words. This time, though, Sophie was truly angry, and he couldn't muster a single word.
"Either come in or leave. I don't need a night guard."
At that, Colby's face finally broke into a smile, and he followed Sophie into her apartment.
