"Dummy." Sophie lifted her hand and pinched Colby's cheek, feeling a slight prickling sensation on her fingers. She frowned and asked, "Since when did you start growing a beard?" Colby grabbed the hand Sophie was using to pinch his cheek. "Who did you think was standing guard outside the Minton estate these past few days?" "You didn't leave at all?" "Not for a moment." "What about when you had to use the bathroom?" Faced with Sophie's question, Colby made a shushing gesture. "Men have their ways." Sophie couldn't help but chuckle at Colby's serious expression. She threw herself into his arms, feeling extremely sleepy. "Now I know why I've been sleeping so well these last few days. It's because you were keeping watch over me." Sophie buried her head in Colby's chest, her hair soft and tickling his chest a little.
Colby's throat bobbed unconsciously, his voice a bit husky. "Given how well I've performed, shouldn't I get a reward?" "A reward? Yeah, I guess you deserve one." Sophie asked playfully, "But today, outside the Minton estate, there was talk of taking someone down and smashing surveillance cameras. Shouldn't that be... Ah! Colby! Putdown!" Before Sophie could finish her sentence, Colby had already scooped her up and was striding towards the house. "Colby!" Sophie's expression was a mix of annoyance and amusement. The next second, Colby gently set her down on the couch. Looking at Sophie, who now had flushed cheeks, Colby chuckled lightly. "Alright, no more teasing. I'll go run a bath for you." "For bedtprep?" Hearing this, Colby tapped Sophie's forehead lightly, saying seriously, "Who's being more improper now?" "Isn't it for bedtprep?" "I'm just worried you haven't been comfortable these past few dayszat the Minton estate," Colby said with concern. "Odie locked you up in a room, didn't he? Did you suffer a lot?" "Suffer?" Sophie thought for a moment.
The food was better than at a Michelin-starred restaurant, the bed larger than in a presidential suite, and she even found samusement with Odie from tto time. Putting other things aside, days without Colby were indeed hard.
Catching Colby's sympathetic gaze, Sophie pretended to be aggrieved. "Yes, I've suffered a lot. Look, I've even lost weight!" Sophie twirled in front of Colby, who frowned slightly. "I'll go give him a piece of my mind, to stand up for you." Saying this, Colby was already standing up, looking as though he was about to teach Odie a lesson. "Hey! I was just kidding! Don't go!" Sophie quickly grabbed Colby, saying, "How dare Odie mistreat me? He's been pamperingwith delicious food and drinks every day. I've actually gained weight." "So, have you gained weight or lost it?" "I've gained it, really!"
Sophie spoke earnestly. These days. at the Minton estate, despite Odie claiming he was teaching, keram lesson, she ate more lavishly than Odie himself at every meal. "Alright, I'll let him off this time. Next time, I'll teach him a proper lesson."
Seeing Colby's reaction, Sophie couldn't help but laugh. She said "The one who needs a bath to relax isn't me, it's you."
Sophie reached out and touched Colby's beard, saying, "How cevery tI'm not by your side, you let yourself go like this? Last time, was the one who shaved you. I'm not around, how scruffy are you going to get?" "Don't talk nonsense." I.ne Colby frowned and covered Sophie's mouth with his hand, saying X seriously, "There won't be a next time. You will always be by my side, and I will never let you be alone."
