Just as he finished speaking, the two party girls near them immediately opened two bottles of cold beer.
Hugh slowly approached Herring. Sophia's arms were draped on Hugh's as they casually stood beside Colin. Holding the bottle of beer that Herring gave him, Hugh apologized, "I was late because I had an important meeting. It has nothing to do with Sophia. I'll drink for her, then!"
Upon hearing this, other men started to boo. They hated that a beautiful woman would not drink just because of his partner. "Mr.Hugh, I'm 100 percent sure that she's you girlfriend now. You have become so protective of her! I have never seen you like this before!"
"A hero saves the beautiful woman! What a story!"
With a smile, Hugh looked at the man who just teased him, "I am chasing her! I am trying to win this beautiful woman's heart. Isn't it something I should do? How could I let go of a pretty girl like her?"
"Oh! I see! So Ms. Lo, what are you waiting for?? You may never meet someone as rich and handsome as Hugh again! Accept him and start a new life with this handsome bachelor!" Flynn Fan, the regional CEO who just came here to work a couple of years ago, said with a hint of excitement. He knew nothing about the things that happened between them before. He doesn't have any idea about Colin and Sophia's past.
Sophia felt everyone was staring at her. She felt a bit uncomfortable but still managed to smile. "Hugh deserves someone much better than me. An average designer like me is never worthy of a man like him! There are better women than me!"
"I didn't expect that she's this modest. She is really humble! It makes her more beautiful!" Flynn became interested of Sophia. He let go of the girl beside him and picked up a glass of wine. Then he walked up to her, "I wonder if Ms. Lo would care to join me in a drink. It would be a privilege for a beautiful woman like you to sit beside me."
Casting a glance at the wine in his hand, Hugh quickly whispered in Sophia's ears, "He's the regional CEO of Jingguan Entertainment Company in A Country. His name is Flynn. He's quite a famous man in Green Cold Country. Won't you share a drink with him? That will do good for your image. Go ahead."
Several people around him overheard what he just said since he did not keep his voice down. Flynn smiled when he heard Hugh introducing him to the pretty lady.
Sophia did not expect that had to drink out of courtesy soon after she walked in the party. This was happening too fast.
She had't even eaten anything yet! She guessed that she probably would get drunk tonight. "There's no harm in starting early, then." She thought to herself. Smiling, she picked up the glass of wine, let go of Hugh's hand and charmingly walked up to Flynn. She clinked glasses with him. "Thanks for your appreciation. Mr. Fan. Cheers!"
They cli
It all starts on that fateful night.
When Ella, who is the dear sister of Samuel’s best buddy, sneaks into the hotel where the drunken Samuel resides and gets pregnant…
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I did no such thing!"
Ella jumped on the bed and cried out. “I don’t want a scheming woman as my wife. Just sign the paper...
nt to separate her from Hugh?
The people became a bit indifferent when they saw Sophia being pulled away. They left Hugh and the party girl alone.
Then Herring led Sophia to a seat beside the sexy party girl leaning on Colin. Sophia did not know if he did this on purpose. Or maybe somebody asked him to. Either way, Sophia found Herring's actions to be strange. While Hugh was about to sit next to Sophia, Herring urged him to go to the karaoke and have some fun.
When they were picking songs to sing, Hugh glanced at Herring and asked, "You're having fun doing it? I know what you're up to."
"Of course not. Who on earth would want to have any problem with you guys? But I happen to know who is truly in Sophia's heart. So, sorry about it! Bro, could you just be a little generous this time and let Sophia be truly happy?"
Hugh disdainfully stared at him. "Did he ever think of Sophia's feelings when he was making out with all these girls? Do you think Sophia will be happy knowing that?"
"That's their own business! Did you notice that Colin had been avoiding physical contact with the girls when Sophia stepped in? That was unheard of him. But these girls are clingy as a sticky candy. They just won't get off from him even if Colin wanted to get rid of them already."
Sitting in front of the jukebox, the two bantered back and forth for a while. Then they picked a song entitled Good Buddies and started singing merrily.
Sophia kept some distance from the girl and quietly listened to song. She was feeling very uncomfortable right now.
Wearing a white shirt and a black jacket, Flynn approached them and sat next to her with his hands holding two glasses and a bottle of expensive wine. Then he opened the bottle and poured some into the glasses.
He didn't hesitate to give Sophia one of the glasses.
Then the two glasses clinked. Sophia took a sip. "Thank you."
