Chapter 62 A Letter from a Foreign Land
Chapter 62 A Letter from a Foreign Land
Sophia was still staring at the large screen when the subway arrived. Seeing the face of the woman in
the lilac coat, she recognized that it was indeed Leila. When the tall man in a suit beside Leila turned,
Sophia saw a familiar face. It was Colin.
The two people didn't hide away from the camera. They walked straight towards a black luxury car and
left.
With a heavy heart, Sophia went home. On the way, she searched online about Leila and Colin. They
were mentioned on Weibo as well.
She checked their Weibo accounts and was relieved to find that neither of them had made a response.
But she was rather depressed by the reviews calling for them to get together.
Her marriage with Colin had been a secret all this time. Only a few people knew that Colin had married.
The number of people wanting Colin and Leila to get together were growing.
When she got home, Sophia took a bath to calm herself down. After much hesitation, Sophia finally
sent Colin a message, "Colin, where's my brother? Is he okay?"
But by the time she fell asleep, she still hadn't gotten a reply from Colin.
At the University of Jeju in H Country
Actors and actresses were taking a break after a commercial shoot.
A tall and handsome man sat down on his chair casually, when a crowd of girls surrounded him, "Hugh!
I love you! Can I take a photo with you?"
"I love you, Hugh!" "I love you! I love you!"
"Hugh! Can I have your autograph?"
Hugh satisfied every request from his fans. Signing autographs for them, he charmed them with a smile
that would make most women go crazy.
Ten minutes later, he was still signing autographs
When his assistant approached him, "Hugh, there's a letter for you from A Country."
Hearing this, Hugh paused and asked, "From whom?"
He was filled with anticipation. Could it be from the person he had lost in touch with for almost two
years?
"Oh, it was sent to your previous address. I got a call and asked them to forward it here." His assistant
explained.
Hugh traveled to different countries most of the time because of his job, and seldom went back to his
residence in A Country.
Hugh quickly finished signing autographs and tried to contain his anxiety. He asked his assistant, "Was
it sent to the West Rhine Garden Villa?"
The assistant confirmed, "Yes. I suppose it's from Miss Lo."
Hugh took the letter and rose from the chair, walking into a grove.
His fans moved to follow him, but they were prevented by his assistant.
The sun gently glistened through the leaves. Hugh sat on a bench, staring at the envelope for a long
time.
He recognized her handwriting.
His cold expression softened. He missed Sophia so much.
It was a short letter, and Hugh soon finished reading it. It turned out that Sophia had gone to Z Country.
What did she mean, if he was willing to contact her? She had no idea how much he missed her. He
couldn't wait to contact her.
He put the letter back into the envelope and strode to his assistant. Taking out his mobile phone, he
added Sophia on WeChat.
When Sophia saw Hugh's friend request, it was already three days later. Every WeChat message she
received either came from Wendy or the work group chats. She didn't care much about checking her
WeChat notifications.
Seeing Hugh's name in the notification column, Sophia was surprised and accepted the request
immediately.
She had just arrived home and put her bag on the table, when a video call came.
It was Hugh.
Sophia accepted it excitedly, and a familiar handsome face appeared on the screen.
"Hugh!" Sophia grinned. She felt like she had gone back in time the moment she saw Hugh.
There was a rare smile in Hugh's eyes. "Sophia, how's everything going?"
Sophia shook her head, her eyes filling with tears as she remembered everything that had happened to
her family, "Hugh, my mother died. My father is mentally ill, and I just found my brother, who had been
missing for a long time."
Sophia told him the truth. Hugh was like an elder brother to her, she didn't need to hide anything from
him.
Sophia's sad face made Hugh's heart ache, "Sophia, don't be sad. Everything will be fine."
Hugh didn't know what to say, he had never consoled a woman before.
"Thank you, Hugh. Where are you now? Are you busy?" Sophia went to her bed and sat down, looking
out the window.
Knowing that Sophia wasn't looking at him, Hugh studied Sophia and noticed she had lost much
weight. He speculated that something must have happened in the past two years when he had lost
contact with her.
"I'm in H Country. I'm leaving for Paris tomorrow. Sophia, why don't you come here? I'll show you
around."
Meanwhile, a man walked quietly through the corridor of the villa. Hearing another man's voice coming
from Sophia's room, he frowned.
He knew that Sophia was inside. Did she bring another man back home?
At the thought, Colin picked up his pace towards Sophia's room. He stopped by the door and didn't see
a man. Sophia sat alone on her bed, her back to the door.
Did he get it wrong?
"I can't leave now. I got a job here, I'm very busy every day. And I have to go back to A Country in two
weeks." Sophia placed her phone against a glass of water on the bedside table and talked with Hugh
as she looked out the window. She didn't know that Colin was behind her, and could be seen on the
phone camera.
Noticing Colin approaching, Hugh narrowed his eyes and his gentle face suddenly clouded.
"... Hugh, why don't you come here? I'll show you around Z Country. I'll get paid tomorrow. We can go
out for a dinner and... Oh, no. We can't. You'll be followed by the paparazzi. I've forgotten that you're
super famous now."
She grinned, unaware of the mutual jealousy between the man she was talking to and the man behind
her.
Remembering the news on Colin and Leila, Sophia wondered if things would be the same if she and
Hugh went out for a meal together.
She suddenly felt pity for Hugh, his fame came at the cost of his privacy. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Sophia came to herself when she heard Hugh ask a question.
"Why are you with Sophia?"
"What?" Sophia turned her head to look at the phone in confusion. She saw Hugh's cold face first, then
she noticed there was a man behind her.
"Goodness!" Sophia was so scared, she jumped off the bed.
Colin... What was he doing here?
Ignoring Sophia's distress, Colin looked at person in the video calmly, "I'm with my wife. What's so
strange about that?"
Hugh's eyes widened in shock.
How was that possible?
Sophia had married Colin?
No way!
Didn't Sophia love that loser, Payne? Why would she marry Colin?
"Sophia! Is that true?" Hugh asked incredulously.
