Trapped with the CEO

Chapter 1324 She Dumped Me

"Mom! What's the matter? You are shaking." Dorothy followed and anxiously looked at her angry mother.

Marcella said nothing. She didn't even have the strength to speak right now. She was thinking who might have known about the fact that she was afraid of black cats. She rarely told that to someone.

"Mom, do you think it was the bitch Sophia Lo who sent you the black cat? My instinct tells me that she was behind this." Dorothy's words reminded her mother of something. It seemed that Sophia Lo knew her secret fear about cats.

"I'll investigate into this and if I find out that Sophia Lo did it, I will kill her!" Marcella gnashed her teeth in anger as she was blurting out these words.

Dorothy sensed right away that her mother was extremely exasperated. So she became angry too. "Mom, I'll go find her at once. I won't let her slip away!"

Marcella hurriedly grabbed her daughter by the hand and said, "Stop it! Today is my birthday! It is not the right time. I want this night to be happy and joyful."

"Mom, you don't have to be afraid of her now, for she and Colin have got divorced already. Thus, Colin won't help her anymore. She has nothing! At present, she can only get some support from Hugh. You know Hugh is the son of Uncle Pei and he has always had a good relationship with us." At that moment, the only thing Dorothy wanted to do was to give Sophia Lo a lesson. A really harsh and brutal lesson.

Damn it! How dare Sophia Lo come to her home and steal her thunder?

"listen to me! Don't cause any trouble right now. Do this for your mother. These things should be planned carefully. I don't want our image to be ruined." Marcella was older so she was more mature than her daughter, especially in handling pressure and issues.

But Dorothy still insisted. After letting go of her hand, she made a promise to her mother, "I got it. Mom, please quickly dress yourself up again. The dinner is about to begin."

Meanwhile, Sophia knew she has already succeeded in her mission. She asked Hugh, "Can we go before the party ends?"

Hugh took a look at the people in the hall and said, "Of course we can. Let's say goodbye to Mr. Lien. Do you want to go home already? Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

Gregary was talking something about business matters with Colin and some other CEOs at that time. It was a good chance for him and he must grab it right away.

Hugh walked next to Gregary and said, "Excuse me, sir! I must go now because I need to handle some important affairs. I had a very good time and this party really relieved me of my stress this week!"

Gregary took a quick glance at Sophia, then finally fixed his eyes on Hugh. "Of course. Let me do the honor of walking yo

When her boyfriend betrayed her, all light and joy was gone from Cherry’s life. Deserted, bereft of hope, she married a man that she had barely met, but she had never expected him to be her ex-boyfriend’s uncle.

Cherry thought that she had finally found her happiness, but she had no idea about the dark secrets that were bound to unfold and haunt her forever...

her patience. She threw herself upon Sophia in a harsh attempt to physically teach her a lesson.

But before she could hurt Sophia, Hugh shoved her, showing no mercy at all for the woman. Because she was wearing heels, Dorothy failed to keep her balance and stumbled to the ground. She could hear some people laughing at her.

It was precisely under that circumstances when Dorothy saw Colin ready to leave the hall. At that moment, Dorothy immediately changed her expression into a pitiful one. She sadly looked at Colin and said, "Colin, This woman right here has bullied me and my mother!" She exclaimed while pointing a finger at Sophia.

With a hint of irony in his eyes, Colin reluctantly walked to Dorothy and gently helped her up.

With Colin's help, Dorothy stood up and coyly looked at him. Surely, there was no doubt that the woman Colin loved was her! It was such a sweet gesture!

Before Colin could speak up, Dorothy arrogantly pointed at Sophia and said, "Colin, she bullied me and also boasted that she dumped you..."

"Well, that's the truth. She was the one who dumped me." Colin replied casually.

All the people were surprised at his words. Dorothy felt embarrassed and stunned as she stood still, utterly speechless.

Sophia was also surprised. Her heart was beating rapidly and her mind was running in circles. How could Colin still care about her? He just saved her integrity and in the process, he tarnished his own image.

But just a moment later, all the deep emotions in her eyes vanished because of what Colin said...

"Only after she dumped me did I have the chance to meet you, Dorothy. The love of my life." He looked affectionately at Dorothy, which made every woman present in the hall envious and jealous. Sophia was deeply hurt as tears welled up in her eyes.
