Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

Chapter 147 Do You Want to Avenge Your Mother

Sophia forced a smile. With a broken heart, her eyes brimmed with tears again. "Colin, someone

threatened me with my Dad's life. He wanted me to tell you that the baby... The baby is not yours.

But, the baby is yours, not Payne's. Colin, we love each other very much. Why don't you trust me?

Have you fallen in love with someone else, and you need a reason to get rid of me?"

Sophia broke down. Unsympathetically, Colin asked, "Have you finished your story?"

"I'm not telling you a story. This afternoon, an unknown number called me. They abducted my father

and said they would kill him if I didn't tell you that the baby is not yours. I had the video, but it was

automatically erased. I suspect someone is monitoring my phone, so I called you using Justina's

phone."

"Do you have a better excuse?" Apparently, Colin did not trust her.

"Colin, I'm not lying to you. I could see my dad, distraught and running around in a large room."

"Where is he being held? Who abducted him? Tell me."

"He didn't tell me. He only said that if I didn't follow his instructions, my father would get hurt."

"So, are you trying to tell me, the baby inside you is not mine?" Colin's cold voice made Sophia shiver.

"The child is yours. I was forced to say that..."

"Stop your lies. Otherwise, never call me again!"

Then he hung up the phone.

In the SL Group offices. Standing in front of the window, Colin smoked a cigarette, clutching his phone

tightly. Before walking back to the meeting room, Colin spoke to Wade. "How is the investigation

concerning my father-in-law going?"

"They called yesterday. There was no news." Wade felt deeply ashamed.

"Sophia suspects her phone is being monitored. Check whether this is happening."

"Okay, sir."

After the meeting, Colin went back to his office. Soon, Wade called, "Sir, I had madam's phone

inspected and, she isn't being monitored."

"Okay, thank you." Colin pulled his tie loose. How could he ever trust Sophia again?

Colin threw his phone on the desk and walked to the wine rack on the other side of the room. He

opened a bottle and poured a full glass, which he downed in one swift move.

The wine made Colin's throat and stomach burn, but it did not change his mood.

'Sophia, I tried to believe you! But you let me down time after time.'

The phone on the table rang. He calmed down and walked to answer the phone. "Hello, sir. This is the

reception desk. A Mr. Aaron wishes to see you, but he has no appointment..."

"Let him in!"

Aaron had wanted to see Sophia several times, but Sophia did not want to see him. Aaron thought

there might be something wrong with his sister, so he had to come to speak to Colin.

Soon, there was a knock on the door. Leaning against the desk, Colin called out, "Come in!"

The receptionist opened the door, followed by Aaron, who was still in his uniform. It seemed he had just

gotten off work.

"Brother!" The door was closed. Aaron walked in anxiously.

There was a strong smell of alcohol in the office. Aaron look around, 'Has Colin been drinking?'

"What's wrong?" Colin took a peek at him and walked to the wine rack.

"I can't find my sister. She is always saying she is busy when I call her. I went to your house, but she

was not there. Do you know where she is?"

Colin did not answer him. He took out another glass, and poured some wine into it. "Are you off work?"

"Yes. About my sister..."

Colin held the glass in front of him. "Can you drink?"

Aaron hesitated for a moment and then nodded. "A little."

Colin gave him the glass of wine. After drinking it, Aron's eyes immediately went red.

"Brother, are you okay?" Aaron could sense that there was something wrong with Colin.

Colin looked at him and finished the glass of wine. "Do you want to avenge your mother?"

"Yes." Aaron's eyes immediately filled with hatred.

"Your sister is living in another house. Don't worry about her. How about this? I can send you abroad

for further study. Don't let me down." He had high expectations for Aaron, but Aaron had not been to

university, nor did he have any social experience. He needed practice.

"Now?" Aaron hesitated a little. He wanted to avenge his mother's death more than anything.

"Yes. Do you think you are strong enough to defeat the man who can bribe the Public Security

Bureau?"

"Brother, what do you mean?"

Colin poured another glass of wine for himself. "When your mother had an accident, didn't your sister

call the police?"

Aaron nodded.

"The police postponed dealing with the case, and finally determined it was an accidental death."

Aaron nodded again. Suddenly, he understood what Colin was trying to say.

Their enemies must be powerful enough to have the police under their control.

Aaron drank up the wine in one gulp. "Brother, I will follow your advice."

"I will send you abroad now. You can apply for Economic Management course. Remember to study

hard. If you have enough time, you can learn something else. As long as you work hard, money is not a

problem. You can ask Mr. Ji for money at any time."

"But, what about my dad and sister?" At the thought of his family, Aaron hesitated.

Colin drank up the last glass of wine and said, "Don't worry. My people are looking into your father's

disappearance. As for your sister..." Colin played with the wine glass, "... you need not worry about her

anymore. She was a very capable woman."

She had became Colin's wife, and then slept with her ex-boyfriend and was pregnant with her ex-

boyfriend's child... She truly was capable.

Without thinking much, Aaron responded. "Okay, brother. Thank you!"

He thought he would work very hard and live up to his brother's expectations, and repay him in the

future.

"Okay, I will ask Mr. Ji to make the arrangements for you. See you." Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"Okay, brother. See you!"

After Aaron left, Colin threw the empty wine bottle to the wall. The bottle broke into tiny fragments.

How could Colin take care of her? How could he worry about a woman who was pregnant with another

man's baby?

Three days after Aaron left Colin's office, Aaron called Sophia, "Sister, please take good care of

yourself and my brother."

"What? What do you mean?" Sophia was puzzled.

"Didn't my brother tell you? I'm going to Britain." Sitting in the departure hall, Aaron looked at the

planes outside in confusion.

"When?" Sophia had a presentiment that something bad was happening.

"Now. I'm leaving now."

Now? Sophia jumped down from her chair on the balcony. "Why didn't you tell me early? I will see you

off!"

"Didn't my brother tell you?"

Sophia didn't know what to say. She hadn't seen Colin for days.
