Chapter 207 "Colby! What are you talking about?" Sophie hurriedly pushed the family crest back to Colby.
Even as an outsider, she knew the significance of the Costello family crest and was shocked that Colby would entrust such an important item to her.
"Sophie, once I give something away, I never take it back." Colby placed the family crest on Sophie's chest. The Costello family crest signified the head of the Costello family. Possessing this crest was akin to having absolute authority within the Costello family.

"Should I leave?" Adler hesitated.
"Don't go! I need to talk to you!" Sophie stepped forward, her mind in turmoil, mumbling unclearly, "I was just getting a bit hungry, what did you buy?" "Colby askedto get dinner since you probably hadn't eaten anything after work." Adler spoke while glancing at Colby's expression.

Adler sa: this and even made a joking gesture toward Colby, but Colby's expression did not improve.
Adler was nervous. It couldn't be that he had interrupted a heartfelt confession just by walking in, could it? No way! Who confessed so suddenly? ⇒ But the next second, Adler saw the family crest on Sophie's chest.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe thought he was seeing things, so he looked again. It really was the Costello family crest! "Colby! That's really low of you!" Adler's exclamation made Sophie drop her chopsticks on the floor.
Colby frowned, "Get out!" "You can't just confess and expect-" Adler was cut off as Colby covered his mouth with one hand and dragged him out forcefully.
Sophie watched the scene unfold, her hands touching her slightly warm cheeks. She felt her heart just skipped a beat.
