Before I could say anything, he addressed himself as my soulmate. He was so shameless.
I shove his face away. "I haven't asked you yet. When did you get a soulmate? Who did you marry behind my back?"
Colin deftly avoided my hand and stuck to my face again. "You're my wife. I'm your husband. We're soulmates, of course. If you're in a rush, we can get married as soon as the courthouse opens. How about I go back and give you all my wealth first?"
"Hmph, who's in a rush? You're the only one who's in a rush."
"Yes, I am, but I can't marry alone. Baby, when are you going to give me a pass? Do you realize how heartless it is to only hug you without doing anything further?"
Colin pretended to be aggrieved again. He stuffed me into the passenger seat, fastened my seat belt, and started the car.
When this topic came up, I felt overwhelmed. I was so useless.
I was usually good at refuting. However, when it came to speaking about our relationship, I would lose my eloquence. I simply pretended not to hear Colin and abruptly shifted the topic to his troublesome admirer.
It was almost midnight when we got home. Andrew and Queenie were sitting on the couch, waiting for us anxiously.
"Why are you up?" I asked Queenie. She hadn't recovered yet, even after she returned from Harveyton. Due to the low temperature there, she felt uncomfortable on the way back. She should rest early.
She took my small bag and hung it up. "I haven't slept yet. How is she? Is she seriously injured?"
Queenie didn't sleep at all. She was woken up and kept waiting for us because she was worried about me.
