Trapped with the CEO

But instead of letting her go, Colin pulled her closer and made her sit on his lap.

...

The atmosphere within the room was strange. Sophia blushed, wondering what Colin was doing in front of other people.

"What are you doing? Let me go!" she hissed.

When Sophia blushed and resisted, everyone thought she was shy and embarrassed.

Hugh looked away and filled his glass with wine, drinking one glass after another.

Sophia tried to squirm away from Colin's grasp several times, but failed to escape.

Finally finding the opportunity to confront Colin, Herring said coldly, "Colin, you told Shelly to stay away from me, yet here you are holding your wife lovingly."

Colin nodded. "Yes."

... Sophia had no idea what was wrong with Colin tonight.

They had been giving each other the silent treatment for a long time, whether in the office or at home. They barely talked to each other at all.

But now, Colin kept holding her and wouldn't let her go. Was it as Herring said, was Colin showing his love for Sophia?

She shook off the idea quickly.

Colin hated her so much. How could he love her in any way?

Hugh didn't want see Colin holding Sophia anymore. He stood up from the sofa and dragged Sophia up after drinking several glasses of wine.

Since neither Sophia nor Colin anticipated this, Hugh was able to pull Sophia away from Colin's arms.

Sophia moved two steps away before she could go further. She turned back to see Colin holding her left wrist.

The atmosphere had completely turned cold. Herring quickly turned off the music on the screen and looked at the two struggling men.

Standing up from the sofa, Colin looked at Hugh and said coldly, "Hugh, no matter how good your relationship with Sophia was, she is now my wife. I won't let her be alone with you."

He walked to Sophia and gave her a warning look.

Sophia actually understood what he meant, but Colin was thinking too much. S

Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.

"You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.

"You! Give that land to my family, or I won't agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.

"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.

ee men in the room.

Hugh still held onto his last hope. He hoped that she would tell him that she was in prison... working as a cleaning lady. It would still be better than the alternative of her being a sentenced criminal.

But it wasn't the case.

"Two years ago, I was sentenced to five years in prison because of attempted murder. A few days before I was locked in, I had someone tell you that I had something to do because I didn't want to worry you. Payne and Dorothy were the ones who pushed me into jail. If it wasn't for my mother... My mother-in-law, Colin's mother, I would still be in prison instead of talking with you here now..."

"Do you still think I'd still be in love with Payne after that? I want him and Dorothy to die! But they cannot die now because I'm not yet strong enough, and I haven't found out how to clear my name!"

"Two years ago, my mother was killed, my dad was driven crazy, and my brother went missing. The murderer wiped out every evidence. While I was grieving about losing my family, Payne, the man I had loved for many years... pushed me into the devilish prison with a third woman. How could I continue to love such a horrible man?"

...

Colin's heart clenched tightly. He took Sophia into his arms and told her, "Don't speak anymore!"
