Colin looked at the sleeping Sophia. She had a lovely face. But her indifference bothered him.
Was it because she had been in prison for one and a half years? Had her time made her indifferent?
He lifted her left hand that had been resting on her abdomen. A thin layer of gauze was wrapped around her wrist, and her fingertips were covered in red burns.
Colin wondered whether he would have liked Sophia had they not been forced into this marriage.
And the answer was obvious: No.
To him, she seemed to be angry and in search of revenge.
Not only that, during her time at his company, he knew that she had been hesitant to interact with her colleagues.
She was not bad at socializing, just unwilling.
She was very serious about her work, studious, and keen to take advice from others.
He knew she worked hard because she wanted to be stronger, more powerful. She was ambitious.
In doing so, she would have the means to match, if not defeat her enemies.
......
Colin wasn't drawn to her strength and attitude. He hoped his future partner would be simple and obedient.
When he left, he told the nurse to watch the time and remember to change Sophia's IV drip.
At four o' clock, Sophia finally woke. Since she had missed lunch, she felt ravenous.
She looked around, and saw that her room was empty. Colin had left.
On the table next to her bed, lay three empty IV bottles.
As she sat up in bed, a nurse walked in and said, "Miss Lo, you're awake."
