Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

Chapter 2 Shall We Call You Soapy

For Sophia Lo, it was a great opportunity to pay back Wendy. "Auntie, please don't hesitate to ask."

She would try her best to do whatever she could.

"I have two sons. The elder one, Colin, is nearing thirty this year. However, he still hasn't found a

woman to take care of him.

I want you to marry Colin. To be by his side, and take care of him."

Sophia had not expected that the first help Wendy would ask for was to marry her elder son.

"But Auntie, you know I am not good in house affairs." Before the Lo clan declined, Sophia, although

not a lady in a rich and powerful family, she was her parents favorite and was not allowed to do any

housework.

"It doesn't matter. We have maids to do housework.

You don't need to do anything." "Will Colin agree?" Sophia was uncomfortable with the idea of marrying

a stranger.

"His opinion hardly matters. That troublesome boy is almost thirty and has not brought me a daughter-

in-law! Please tell Auntie whether you will or not. I will understand if you don't want to marry him.

Kid, don't put yourself in a dilemma." "Auntie, please give me some time to think about it." Sophia Lo

said the words with a bowed head.

Wendy left her alone in the room.

She went to a window sill. Looking out of the window silently, she recalled a man's figure in her mind.

The man said to her, "Sophia, I will beg your father to let you marry me next year after I graduate."

However, the man, who had promised to marry her, was in the arms of another woman because of

power.

After the engagement, he came to find her and said, "Sophia, the one that I love is you, not her. I will

get a divorce with her when my position is stable. Please wait for me."

How had that turned out?

Dorothy Lien had found out that her fiancé was in love with Sophia. No wonder she was treating Sophia

poorly. At first, Dorothy made all kinds of plans to embarrass Sophia. When that was not enough, she

planned to send Sophia to prison along with her beloved man.

Sophia Lo closed her eyes. She suppressed her emotions. Determined to put the past behind her, she

opened the bedroom door and found Wendy. "Auntie, I promise you."

After a few days, Colin came back from Z Country.

It was the first meeting for Colin and Sophia because he had lived in America for his work.

Wendy and Julia, Sophia's mother, had only befriended each other after Colin had gone to America.

This is why the two hadn't met before.

The man was tall and good looking. Traits he had inherited from Jordan. He nodded his head at Sophia

as a way of greeting.

Colin looked at his mother in shock when Wendy shared her idea. "Mom, are you insane? You want her

to be your daughter-in-law?"

"Yes, I am insane!" Wendy answered him directly.

Colin looked at the silent Sophia. His measuring look made Sophia uncomfortable.

Knowing that Colin was making Sophia uncomfortable on purpose, Wendy gave him a light slap. "Be

polite to Sophia!"

Colin ignored his mother and went to Sophia He lifted her chin with his right hand. "Where did you

come from? You have brainwashed my mother."

Colin knew that he was good looking. He had been chased by countless girls since primary school.

However, it was Sophia, only she, who had been able to convince his dear mother to marry them.

"Sophia Lo, Sophia Lo, should we name you, Soapy?"

Colin firmly believed that Sophia had a reason to get close to Wendy. As to this reason, he would find

out!

Colin's taunt made Sophia blush. She clenched her fist and forced his hand off her face.

Colin pretended to nurse his hand. "Yo? What a temper!" "I should tell you that I already love someone

else. You can leave now! Do you understand?"

Wendy got a headache. When had Colin become so flirty? When did he love a girl? She smiled at the

thought. As his mother, she should would have known if he had a loved girl!

"Colin, if you don't agree to this, we will not be mother and son!"

Colin smiled. "Good!"

All of a sudden, Wendy remembered that her son could be persuaded by reason but not by force. She

wiped pretend tears. "You can go now. Why did I give birth to an ungrateful son?"

The next day, Colin and Sophia Lo appeared at the Registry of Marriages.

The sound of the doorbell drew Sophia's mind away from the past and back to reality.

The glass had been emptied of its content a long time ago.

She put down the glass and walked towards the door.

Colin stood on the other side, dressed in a suit.

She looked into his eyes and saw only disgust.

"Mr. Li." She presented a respectful greeting.

Colin pushed her aside, walked into the presidential suite, and sat on the sofa. He looked at Sophia

and asked, "Soapy, why did you tear the cooperation contract with Lien clan?"

Having heard Colin call her Soapy for so long, she had gotten used to the ridicule.

"If Mr. Li really wants to cooperate with the Lien clan, please ask someone else to negotiate." She

didn't want to do that at all! This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

"Why? Just because their representative is your ex-boyfriend?" Colin's face mimicked the sarcasm in

his voice. He had heard that his wife had had a very rich private life.

His mention of Payne brought coldness in Sophia's eyes.

"Yes, what of it?" Right now, Sophia was Colin's private secretary and she handled the common

cooperation cases.

"Since he betrayed you, you are using SL to get vengeance? Sophia Lo, how dare you!" Colin's legs

were on the tea table and his voice was lazy, which made it hard for Sophia to judge his feelings.

Sophia turned around and walked into the kitchen. "What do you want to eat?"

"Nothing!" Colin stood up and walked to the door.

He threw her some keys before leaving "You know the villa's address and these are the keys. Pick a

room and move in."

He closed the door forcefully and left as quickly as he had arrived.

Sophia looked at the keys on the sofa with bitterness. Their marriage was just in name.

Maybe it was Wendy who had forced Colin to give Sophia the villa's keys.

As expected, the day after Sophia moved in, her mother-in-law came to Colin's villa in Z Country.

Sophia was still in a meeting with Colin at the company when Wendy called her.

Maybe it was a sudden inspection. After work, Colin warned Sophia as she drove to the villa, "Don't say

anything absurd in front of my mother and sleep in my bedroom tonight!"

"As you wish, Mr. Li!" Sophia promised lightly and continued driving carefully.

At the villa, the maids were busy preparing dinner. Wendy looked unhappy at the sight of the couple.

"Mom, you are here!" Sophia changed her shoes and greeted Wendy with a smile.

Wendy's smile made Colin jealous. He murmured that she had not given him a smile yet!
