The sunlight poured into the room. It enveloped Colin in a warm, golden light.

Some people just hit the genetic jackpot. Colin, eldest son of the Li family, was one of them.

He was handsome, charming and excellent at almost anything he did. There wasn't a woman who wouldn't want him.

......

Sophia was the complete opposite. In her mind, she was the most common, ordinary woman in the world. If one day she suddenly disappeared, she doubted anyone would even notice.

Colin looked at her. With no other place to possibly fix her gaze, Sophia Lo dumbly looked met his gaze. Their eyes met. Sophia quickly reorganized her thoughts. "Mr. Li, what can I do for you?"

"First, you can close the door."

Sophia turned obediently and closed the door. She stood to the side of it waiting for Colin.

"Tell me everything what happened with Quincy. The last time you asked for leave. Don't spare me any detail." Colin sat on a couch with his legs elegantly crossed in front of him.

The were a perceptible change in Sophia's eyes. "Do you believe me?" She said suspiciously.

If she told Colin about Quincy's advances, would he instead think that she had tried to seduce him? After all, in his eyes she was just some dumb, floozy woman.

"Of course I'll believe you!" Colin noted in a trustworthy way..

Sophia reflect over the matter briefly, and decided to tell him everything that had happened on that day.

When she got to the part about Quincy touching her hand, a darkness seemed to grow in Colin's eyes. Did he take her for a liar?

Sophia looked straight into Colin's eyes. "Mr. Li, I have no idea what you're after, but I have told you the truth. I swear it!"

Colin left the couch and walked over to her. He raised her hand and asked in an indifferent tone, "which hand did he touch?"

Sophia suddenly feared that he might now believe her. She raised her hand before him, "my left hand."

What Colin did next surprised Sophia. He lowered his head and kissed the back of her hand.

"I know."

"You know what?" "And after that?" "…Nothing else happened."

Sophia was confused, and looked at the man holding her hand curiously. What did he really want?

"A senior meeting will be held today. You will come with me".copy right hot novel pub
