"Aren't you supposed to be taking Nichole to the hospital? Why are you still here?" Sophie couldn't wait for James to leave. She was worried that if it got too late, Colby might be off to bed, and who knew what kind of schemes Bea might cook up tomorrow.
"Enjoy your meal," James said, glancing at the nearly empty dishes on the table that Sophie had almost cleared. A sense of frustration suddenly filled him. All this effort was made to force him to stay home, and all she cared about was eating? As soon as James left, looking a bit sulky, Sophie quickly pulled out her phone and dialed Colby. "Hey, I got held up today, but I'm on my way now." "No rush." "See you soon!" Meanwhile, at Tredgold Corporation, Colby stood in front of the office's floor-to-ceiling window and hung up the phone.
Adler, waking up from a nap on the office couch, asked, "Where's Sophie? What tis it, and she's still not here?" "She got held up." "Held up all day?" Adler stretched lazily, then suddenly, realizing something, he exclaimed, “You didn't wait here all day without moving, did you?" From the window, one could clearly see the entrance of Tredgold Corporation.
Colby's lips curled into a slight smile.
Adler gasped, "Man, I've seen something new today! What's up? Tired of being a war go d and want to beca god of pure love?" "It's not out of the question." Adler had never seen such an expression on Colby's face before. He had always thought love at first sight was just a fairy tale, but here it was, unfolding right before him with his close friend.

Sophie looked around. Technically, Tredgold Corporation's employees should have already left for the day, yet the lights in the building were all still on.
Adler, back in the CEO's office, watched the brightly lit building and couldn't help but exclaim, "Do you know how much it costs? You monster... "What monster?" Sophie walked in just in tto hear Adler's remark. She looked puzzled.
"I meant, I dreamt of a monster standing next toall day today!" Sophie grew even more puzzled.
At that moment, Colby spoke up indifferently, "Aren't you here to see me?" "I wanted to ask, is that plot of land something Ryan bought for you?"
