Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 245

Everyone in the shop had gone silent. If Sophia hadn't had called the man "Mr. Li", they would've thought she was ignorant of Colin Li's identity. She had dared talk to Mr. Li so arrogantly!

Sophia watched Colin, trying to fathom what was going on in his head. If she knew what he was thinking of, she would've been mortified.

All Colin could think about was how much he wanted to undress the insolent woman.

Colin remained silent. Assuming he didn't want to bother responding to Sophia, Dorothy sneered, "What makes you think you're qualified to talk to me? I'm Colin's fiancé, you're beneath me!"

Unfazed at Dorothy's reply, Sophia laughed. She leaned closer and fixed Dorothy an unimpressed stare. "Why are you so smug? You've just picked up a shoe that I'd thrown away. I'm beneath you, you say? What a joke! What makes you so capable?"

Everyone was dumbfounded by her response. They all shot glances at Colin to gauge his reaction.

Devoid of any emotions on his face, Colin showed no interest in their conversation. He kept his feelings so deeply hidden, that no one could figure out what he was thinking of.

Dorothy wondered when Sophia had become... such a fearless woman. Back when they first met, Sophia used to be a docile and fat girl. She was stupid and had no personality at all.

But now, Sophia seemed to be glowing everywhere.

Maybe it was true that Colin was the man who had changed Sophia. She used to use cheap skincare products on her face, but she now used expensive ones. Sophia had also learned to apply makeup from a professional makeup artist. The makeup on her face suited her perfectly.

Despite her reluctance, Dorothy also had to admit to herself that Sophia was quickly making a name for herself in the designer industry.

The realization made Dorothy lose her confidence. Even if she was born in an upper-class family, she felt a sense of inferiority in front of Sophia...

She wondered if Colin really wanted to marry her. How could he give up such an excellent and confident woman?

Sophia continued, "Miss Lien, why don't you say anything? You're an upper-class lady. Tell me, is Mr. Li the one giving you the courage to comfort yourself with the public spectacle you made of yourself? Or are you just a shameless woman?"

Turning white, Dorothy stepped backwards with each word Sophia said. She kept retreating until she was stopped by Colin's arms.

Although Dorothy wanted to snap back, Colin wrapped his arm around her waist and whispered, "Let's go and choose something else. The coat doesn't suit you. I'll pick the perfect one for you."

With that, Colin took Dorothy away.

Looking at the man holding her, Dorothy was shocked. But her anger dissipated with his tenderness. With an affectionate look in her eyes, she followed Colin to the other side of the shop to look at the clothes.

The manager and saleslady immediately followed suit to assist them. In the end, the khaki overcoat was handed over to Sophia.

Selina came over to Sophia and marvelled, "Sophia, that was amazing! You're my idol!"

Sophia took off her grey coat and handed it to the saleslady. She looked at Selina with a smile. "Why would you say that?"

"You fearlessly cut Dorothy down without even batting an eyelash! Colin's fiancé! I admire your courage! Did you see Dorothy's face? Her face darkened before immediately turning pale!" Selina gushed excitedly. She couldn't understand how Colin could choose Dorothy, an insincere and hypocritical woman.

Sophia recalled the scene that had just transpired. Actually, she was quite frightened the whole time she was challenging Dorothy. She was afraid that Colin would come to his fiancee's aid and retaliate.

She had no problem challenging Dorothy, but Colin was a completely different matter.

Sophia couldn't help glancing at Colin's back as she absentmindedly put on the overcoat. She remembered how he accompanied her shopping once before. She sighed longingly at the memory.

Selina found that the coat suited Sophia quite well. Widening her eyes and deliberately raising her voice, she marvelled, "Wow! Sophia, you look so beautiful! Colin, take a look! Don't you think Sophia looks wonderful?"

Sophia was speechless, While Dorothy fumed in silence. She really wanted to glare at Selina, but Selina was Levi's wife. Her mother had told her that she couldn't offend anyone in the Li Clan, so she had to be nice to Selina.

Colin moved his eyes towards Sophia, who was facing the mirror. Gathering up her courage, Sophia turned around to face Colin and shoot Dorothy a challenging look.

Sophia decided to gamble on Colin. He had told her that if she wanted to do anything, she could do as she pleased. That she didn't need to worry about anything, and he would back her up...

Challenging Dorothy in front of him now, Sophia wondered how Colin would keep his promise.

Dorothy really wanted that coat. She coveted it the moment she laid eyes on it. But Colin told her it didn't suit her even before she tried it on. Seeing how splendid Sophia looked in the coat, Dorothy felt aggrieved.

She would've looked much better than Sophia in that coat!

And what's more, Sophia dared to challenge her again! Dorothy couldn't let her get away with it. "Miss Lo, to my knowledge, the coat is valued at nine hundred and ninety thousand. Can you afford it?"

Sophia smiled. If she had returned the credit card with fifty million back to Colin, she wouldn't be able to afford it. But since Colin had threatened her into taking the card back, she could definitely afford it.

Although she found the coat quite expensive, it would be worth every penny if she could make Dorothy angry.

Sophia ignored Dorothy and grinned sweetly at Colin instead. "Mr. Li, does the coat look good on me?"

Dorothy stared at her smiling face. Was this woman trying to seduce Colin? Over her dead body!

Afraid that Colin would praise her, Dorothy hurried to lie, "The coat doesn't look good on you, no matter the color or style!"

Sophia continued to ignore her and kept her eyes on Colin. She wouldn't give in. She had to make Colin say something.

Underneath everyone's curious glances, Colin grinned. "That's one of Eason Bo's works, isn't it? He's your mentor. Did he customize it for you?"

'Did he customize it for you?' Colin's question clearly spoke volumes.

Sophia's heart soar as she heard Colin's response. It was undoubtedly better than simply telling her she looked beautiful. Smiling happily, Sophia took off the coat and handed it to the saleslady. "Please pack it up, I'm taking it."

Dorothy looked at Sophia incredulously. She was just a daughter of a poor professor. How could she afford the price?

"Sophia, you must be some man's kept mistress!" Dorothy suddenly yelled, stopping Sophia on her way to the checkout counter.

Colin's eyes flashed with anger at Dorothy's outburst. But he was immediately pacified to hear Sophia's satisfying response.

Ignoring everyone's shocked and contemptuous looks, Sophia came up to Dorothy and whispered, "Yes, you're right. I'm definitely someone's kept mistress. And that man is your husband."
