Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

Chapter 190 I Don't Want to Meet the Lien Family

Jonas banged his hands heavily on the desk. He got even more infuriated when he saw how calm and

confident Sophia was in front of him. "What did you just say? That you are going to marry Hugh? I'm

his father and I'll never agree to that!"

But when he finally thought everything out, what Sophia just said relieved him of his greatest worry.

He was uncertain and anxious if she and Colin still had feelings for each other. It was not a secret that

Sophia went to Milan three years ago. He actually paid many people to observe and stalk on Colin and

Sophia. It turned out that although Colin had been to Milan, he never went out of his way to search for

Sophia.

But these were not enough to dispel his anxiety. Now that the two people were about to marry

respectively and go their own separate ways, he was completely relieved that they would not see each

other anymore.

"It's not your call."

Sophia was trying to point out that Hugh didn't listen to his father at all now!

Jonas rubbed his eyes and scratched his head, "Why are you becoming so bitchy?"

... How was she being bitchy? Sophia put on a cold expression on her face. "Since we have different

opinions, there is no need to talk anymore. This is completely useless. I'll go back to work if you don't

have anything else to say!"

When her hand was already on the doorknob to open the door, she turned back. "Jonas, was it you

who handicapped my father three years ago?"

Jonas didn't have to lie this time, "Damn right you are! That was me and Gregary. It was Gregary who

called!"

Sophia clenched her fists in so much anger. She knew it! It was either him or Gregary! "Then why did

you ask me to divorce Colin?!" Did they do it just to force a relationship between Colin and Dorothy?

She always thought that it was not so simple.

"Why? I'll tell you, but not right now." When he was sure that Colin would really marry Dorothy, he could

tell her.

Sophia went back to her office. As she was going downstairs, she received a call from Hugh. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

"I'll go to Marcella's birthday party on behalf of the Pei Group, could you... be my partner? Please?"

Since Hugh knew her relationship with the Lien family, he hesitated before calling her. But he actually

didn't want to find another woman. That's why he called Sophia to try his luck.

As expected, Sophia refused, "I don't want to see them! You know that, Hugh."

"Sophia, you don't have to avoid them like this. You should just totally give up on him!" Hugh admitted

that he was selfish, but he just wanted Sophia to know that Colin would marry Dorothy and she couldn't

change anything.

If she went with him to the party, she would definitely see Colin and Dorothy being sweet to each other.

Hugh knew that she would feel the pain, but it could help her move on from the past.

He could always see in her eyes that she was not happy at all. Sophia found it hard to breathe again.

The thought of Colin and Dorothy always made her so uneasy. What would she do if she didn't want to

give up?

"OK, I'll go with you." Besides, if she didn't go, the money spent yesterday was meaningless. She

should go just to see the embarrassed look of Marcella.

At the Lien's House

Owing to their ties and engagement with the Li family, the Lien family was very prosperous in the

business industry.

Many people from the business circle and their spouses arrived in Marcella's birthday banquet. They

were all dressed in sophisticated and expensive clothing. But most of them came to see Colin.

It was seven o'clock and the Lien's villa was brightly lit with splendid decorations.

Marcella would always dress up in a luxurious way. This night was definitely not an exemption. The

black dress made her slightly bloated figure look sexier. She wore a black hat with a lovely silk mask,

which hid half of her face.

Her lips were coated with a dark red lipstick as she smiled all throughout the proceeding. She held

Dorothy's hand and enjoyed the envious looks from other ladies.

"I really envy this family! Dorothy is about to marry such a good man. She and Colin absolutely make a

perfect couple!"

"Right! The sons of the Li family are the best single men in A Country! They are all good-looking and

very wealthy!" She was referring to Colin and Levi. One was a president and the other was a senior

colonel in the military. They were both great and intellectual men!

"Yes, Dorothy must be happy after marrying Colin!"

"Mrs. Li, Wendy, is also a good mother-in-law. She was even good and caring to Sophia, her ex-

daughter-in-law, who has no background and has cheated before! Mrs. Li would treat Miss Lien better!

That Sophia deserved to be kicked out from the family!" This could be seen and heard almost

everywhere in the party. Dorothy being held up high while Sophia's image and integrity were

mercilessly stomped upon.

These ladies' words made Marcella and her daughter very happy and proud.

Talk of the devil and he is sure to appear! When Hugh and Sophia arrived, the big living room turned

quiet for a moment. All eyes were fixed on Sophia.

After the silence, some people couldn't help but marvel at her. "Is the woman in the dark green trench

coat the girl named Sophia? She is so classy and elegant..."

"Yes, I've heard that Sophia has become more beautiful. It is actually true!"

The young ladies also gossiped about the woman who just came in. "The dark green coat on the

woman looks good. I will ask where she bought it."

"Yes, the quality seems good! It must be very expensive!"

"And her lipstick, what is it? Her lips look so sleek and sophisticated!"

Then everyone shifted their gaze on Dorothy. She also wore a long trench coat, but her light purple one

was far worse than Sophia's. "I feel that Sophia looks better!"

"Right, I didn't expect that she has such a good taste!"

"She immediately makes Dorothy look unattractive. Did she do this on purpose?"

"Who knows! I heard that they have some bad blood going on with each other. I'm expecting a good

show of two women fighting against one another tonight!"

...

Although they chatted in low voices, Dorothy still heard everything. Her face turned pale and the smile

on her face was completely gone.

Hugh took Sophia to Marcella and Dorothy. They both looked aghast. Hugh handed the present to

Marcella, "Mrs. Lien, happy birthday! Keep looking young forever!"

Marcella's eyes were fixed on Sophia but she turned to Hugh to smile slightly, "Thank you, Hugh. You

are getting more and more handsome!"

"Thank you for the compliment! We know you're both busy so we won't keep you in this conversation.

Have a good party!" Then Hugh took Sophia's hand, who was putting on a very lovely and alluring

smile, and led her to the other side.

Then warm greetings came from behind them, "Mr. Li, welcome!"

"Hello, Mr. Li!"

"Mr. Li, you are here! This is wonderful!"

"Wow! It's Colin. He is finally here!"

...

When Dorothy saw Colin, she knew that she had the advantage. She rushed to Colin and gave him a

sweet greeting. "Colin, you are here! We've been waiting for you for a long time! Let's go and meet my

mom!"

Colin forced a smile and slowly walked over to Marcella and Gregary. It was obvious that Colin does

not look excited nor happy right now. He said in a faint voice, "Uncle, aunt, I am sorry I was late."

Seeing her good-looking and famous son-in-law, Marcella smiled like a blooming lovely flower, "It's all

right. I am happy as long as you can come!"

"Yes, Dorothy has been talking about you for a long time. She has said many good things about you."

Gregary smiled at his embarrassed daughter, "It's really hard to keep a grown-up daughter! She dumps

her father as soon as she finds a fiance!"

Dorothy stomped her feet, "Dad! You're embarrassing me!"

Her shyness and childish gesture shocked and surprised Sophia. She had never seen her like this

before when she was dating Payne! That would mean only one thing. She was deeply in love with

Colin.
