Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

Chapter 200 Family Bonding

Sophia and Ambrose went to a restaurant that specialized in grilled fish. After ordering, Sophia said to

Ambrose, "I really need to go to the bathroom. Can you sit here and wait for me? Don't go anywhere.

Do you understand?"

Ambrose nodded obediently. "Okay. I'll wait right here."

Sophia smiled. She asked a waiter to look after Ambrose while she was away.

Worried about leaving Ambrose alone, she rushed to the bathroom to get back as soon as possible.

When she returned to the table, a man was sitting opposite Ambrose.

A familiar man...

"Mr. Colin, what a coincidence! Why are you here?" Sophia said with a stiff smile.

Colin was looking at the menu to order more dishes. He glanced at her and said, "Sit down."

... Colin's actions made her feel like she was a newcomer he had invited to sit down for dinner. He was

the one intruding on her dinner with Ambrose. Why was he treating her like a guest?

Sophia sat down and watched him order more dishes. She kept staring at him as she waited for an

explanation.

Colin ignored her questioning gaze. He turned to Ambrose and said, "After dinner, I'll have the driver

bring you home first. Sophia and I have something to discuss."

Ambrose didn't reply. Did his father want to finish dinner early so he could be sent back home early?

What kind of father would abandon his own son for a woman?

Sophia was also quiet. She wondered what she had to talk about with Colin.

After a while, Ambrose said grumpily, "Dad, I'm on a date with Sophia tonight. Can't you talk to her next

time?" Every time he went out with Sophia, Colin would be there. Ambrose just wanted to spend some

time alone with Sophia, but Colin kept ruining their dates.

Colin wiped his hands with a warm wet towel. "I just want to bond with my future daughter-in-law. I want

to know if she's good enough for you."

... Sophia started coughing. She rubbed her chest as she tried to clear her throat. Sophia had choked

on her juice when she heard what Colin said.

Ambrose immediately jumped off his seat and ran to Sophia, patting her back in comfort. "Sophia, you

shouldn't drink too fast. Were you shocked by what Dad said? He's letting us be together! Are you

excited? I'm also very excited…" Ambrose chatted happily.

He couldn't help laughing. He and Sophia could finally be together...

Sophia stared at the man sitting across her. "Mr. Colin, Do you want me to call you 'daddy' too?"

Colin arched an eyebrow. "Sounds great! Go on, call me 'daddy.'"

Sophia paused. How could Colin... Make it sound so dirty? What was wrong with him?

As a simple child, Ambrose thought Colin was giving their relationship his consent. He smiled. "Dad,

don't rush Sophia. She'll call you 'daddy' after we get married."

Sophia had no words. The conversation between the father and son was really extraordinary...

The grilled fish was placed on the table. Sophia took Ambrose to the seat beside her and they started

to eat. Sophia helped Ambrose with the fish. They ignored the man sitting across them as they kept

chatting and laughing at each other's jokes.

During dinner, Colin winked at Ambrose several times. He wanted his son to bring him into the

conversation. After this went on for a while, Ambrose finally asked, "Dad, does your eye hurt?"

"Yes." Colin said in resignation.

Ambrose nodded his head in understanding. "No wonder you keep winking at me!"

Sophia couldn't help laughing out loud. "Ambrose, stop looking at your father. Have some more fish."

Taking a piece of fish, she picked out all the fish bones and placed it in Ambrose's bowl.

She used a tissue to wipe Ambrose's mouth. When she moved to get more fish for Ambrose, she found

a large piece of fish in her bowl.

Sophia was confused. Didn't she put the fish in Ambrose's bowl? Sophia picked the fish and placed it in

his bowl again.

Colin wasn't happy to see that Sophia wasn't eating much. "Ambrose, are you a man or not? Can't you

eat by yourself?"

Sophia waved her hand. "No, no... There are lots of fish bones inside. He can't pick them out by

himself." Ambrose was still a child. How was he supposed to do that by himself?

Colin remained silent.

Sophia continued removing the bones for Ambrose. Colin turned the fish over and picked some for

Sophia.

Sophia glanced at the expressionless man and wanted to say something, but Colin spoke first. "You're

taking care of my son, so I'm taking care of you."

Sophia blinked. "No, you don't need to do that. I'm not a child." She refused gently.

If Colin kept being kind to her, Sophia was afraid that she would forget how much he hurt her.

She felt really happy. She couldn't help being drawn to him...

"Yes, you are. Ambrose has eaten more than you have." Colin's eyes fell on Sophia. Though her head

was bent low, he could see that she was blushing. Colin arched an eyebrow. Sophia got shy easily.

Sophia was so adorable, he wanted to tease her.

"Brody eats very slowly. We can wait for him to finish eating first, then I'll have dinner." Actually, Sophia

loved eating fish a lot. If not for Brody, she would finish the whole fish all by herself.

Colin picked up a piece of fish with his chopsticks and raised it to Sophia's mouth. "Open up."

Surprised, Sophia lifted her head and stared at him with wide eyes. Colin was smiling at her. He... He

was feeding her...

Ambrose was discontent with Colin's actions. Jumping off the chair, he walked over to his father and

ate the fish from Colin's chopsticks.

Colin stared at his son darkly. Holding back a smile, Sophia deliberately asked Ambrose, "It's delicious,

isn't it?"

"Yes! Thank you, dad!"

Sophia laughed in delight. She covered her mouth as she tried to stifle her giggles.

Colin would've admonished Ambrose, but since he made Sophia laugh, Colin decided to cut him some

slack this time. After all, Ambrose was still a child.

When Colin picked up another piece of fish and tried to feed Sophia again, Sophia winked at Ambrose.

Once again, he ate the fish from Colin's chopsticks.

Colin was aware of their trick and pretended to be angry about it. He stared at the cunning boy in

discontent. "Ambrose, can you stop that? Eat your dinner."

Ambrose blinked innocently at him. "That's what I'm doing, I'm eating dinner. Right, Sophia?"

Sophia agreed with a sweet smile. "Of course. Brody is so well-behaved. Come here and let me see if

you've enough or not."

Ambrose deliberately held his breath to make his stomach bulge. Sophia touched his stomach and said

dramatically, "Wow! Your tummy is so big. It looks like a big watermelon!"

Sophia's teasing made Ambrose giggle. "Do you like watermelon? I can buy you a big one!"

"Yes, I love watermelon!" Thinking it was a joke, Sophia answered without thinking. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

But Ambrose had already kept her preference in mind.

Colin looked at them with a smile. Their interactions made him feel warm. He had made a good

decision, following them here. They were having a good time, like a family...

After dinner, Sophia went to the bathroom to wash her hands before they left the restaurant.
