NovelEnglishSophie walked back into the room and saw Colby trying to take a stroll. She rushed over to support him and scolded, "The doctor said you shouldn't be walking around. Why don't you ever listen?" "My body recovers faster than most people's," Colby replied casually.
"Don't givethat. Even though the venom's out of your system, you're still weak. I know you're itching to get back to Devonport to mess with Reeves International." Realizing Sophie was in on his plan, Colby guessed she must have gotten the info from Griffin.
"So, you know." "Of course, I know. Did you really think you could handle this behind my back?" Sophie playfully tapped Colby on the forehead, "You're always tapping me, so it's my turn. There's no need to go after Reeves International. I never really wanted Burke International. If Elodie likes it, she can have it." "I know," Colby said, tucking a stray lock of Sophie's hair behind her ear. "But I can't stand the thought of someone taking what rightfully belongs to my wife." He could see that Sophie had always been fixated on Burke International. If he could secure it for her, he'd be more than happy to do so.
"Griffin toldyou had an agenda when you first approachedbecause I was James's wife. Now that we're married, it's just to cement your position as the top dog in Devonport." Sophie watched Colby closely. Sure enough, he looked uncharacteristically nervous. "That's not true! I didn't!" "Not true? So, you weren't interested inbecause I was James's wife... but because you were attracted to me?" Sophie pretended to be puzzled, "Are there no beauties overseas? What virtues do I have to make the famous Colby fall in love withat first sight?" "It wasn't love at first sight; it was love forever," Colby whispered. "I won't deny that I initially approached you because you were James's wife, but I never planned to use you. That night at the auction, I purposely challenged you just to get your attention. When you got kidnapped, I realized how much you mean to me. Sophie, you're the love of my life, the one I want to spend forever with. I'd never use you for anything. Status, wealth, power-none of that means anything compared to you." Hearing Colby's words touched Sophie deeply, but she played it cool, "Men always say sweet things. I don't want to hear what you say; I want to see what you do." "Alright." Sophie noticed how quickly Colby agreed and teased, "You agreed too fast. A lifetis long. If you ever wrong me, then I..." "If I ever wrong you, you can take my life anytime." "I wouldn't take your life. If one day you stop loving me, I'd walk away and never look back."

With that, Colby took Sophie's hand. Just as he was about to lean in for a kiss, Sophie pushed him away, saying, "Stop it, the doctor said you can't be... active."
Sophie's words were coy, and her face turned a shade of pink. Colby laughed and kissed her forehead, saying, "Don't worry, I'll make sure to rest up and get back on my feet soon." Like RICH WOMEN? These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich women will persue you.
