Colin's hand was beautiful and slender.
Faye stared at Colin's hand in a daze. After about ten seconds, she said, "Do you need me to help you
put it on?"
Colin laughed in a low voice, "What?"
Faye took the ring from Colin's hand and heard her heart beat faster than usual.
Colin said, "The middle finger on the left represents love."
Faye looked up.
Colin smiled, "For me, it's love right now."
With that, under Faye's gaze, he took the initiative to put his left middle finger into the ring.
Looking at Faye's stunned eyes, Colin said jokingly, "Baby, you don't have to take the initiative. I just
want you to show your attitude."
He stretched his arms around Faye's waist and said solemnly, "I was scared just now."
Faye glanced at the couple rings between them and said emotionally, "I've never seen you so cautious
before."
Colin raised his eyebrows and said, "When?"
Faye blurted out, "When we just got married..."
Faye suddenly realized something and raised her eyes. As expected, Colin's face changed slightly.
Faye couldn't help laughing, "Are you afraid?"
Colin said, "One step at a time." Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Colin was racking his brains to make Faye happy when his phone on the desk suddenly rang.
Colin glanced at it and saw that it was Alexander. He answered it.
Before Colin could say anything, Alexander said sadly on the other end of the phone, "Colin, why don't
you send someone else? I really can't take it anymore."
Colin said in a deep voice, "What?"
Alexander said, "Colin, James traumatized me mentally in the past. But now Jake is abusing me
emotionally!"
Colin raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "What the hell are you talking about?"
Alexander was stunned for a moment, "Colin, have you forgotten the task you gave me?"
Colin raised his hand and pressed his temple, "I haven't."
Colin just had forgotten to notify Alexander to terminate the mission.
Hearing Colin's words, Alexander sniffed, "Colin, I think Jake is sick. I mean it. He is very sick. I think
he doesn't look like a doctor, but a patient..."
On the other end of the phone, Alexander complained about what Jake had done over the past two
days.
Colin didn't bother to listen to it. He put his phone on speaker and threw it aside, bowing his head to
please Faye.
Alexander said, "He asked me to make him three meals a day in the name of treating me."
Colin lightly kissed the corner of Faye's lips, lowered his voice, and said, "Put these two on the middle
finger. I will design two later, and we will put it on the ring finger."
Faye said, "The ring finger means we are married."
Colin said, "We were already married."
Alexander couldn't hear the conversation between Colin and Faye, and continued complaining, "He
called me at 2:00 am last night and asked me to clean his room, saying that it would help my recovery."
Colin turned a deaf ear to her words, "I'm very regretful now. Why did I pretend to be reckless? I was so
stupid."
Faye kicked Colin and reminded him, "Alexander is talking to you."
Colin took back one hand from around Faye's waist, pinched Faye's ankle, and buckled it behind his
waist.
Faye was shocked.
Alexander said, "Colin, I really can't do this. Find someone else!"
Seeing Faye glare at him, Colin tilted his head and said to Alexander on the other end of the phone,
"Okay, I see."
Alexander said, "What?"
Alexander had just wanted to complain to Colin and never expected that Colin would agree so readily.
He found it unbelievable.
Colin said, "Don't you want to quit this job? Okay, I agree."
Alexander said, "You agree so easily?"
Colin chuckled, "Or what? Do you think I will force you to keep doing it?"
Alexander paused and asked, "How much money do I need to refund?"
Colin said, "No need to refund. It just happens that the environment where you lived is not very good,
so you can just move there."
Alexander was overjoyed when he heard that he didn't need to refund the money, "Really?"
Colin teased, "If you want to refund, I won't refuse."
Alexander instantly became lively and cheerful, "Colin, you're a real man! You make my sister proud!"
Colin teased, "It's not me who makes your sister proud, it's money."
Alexander jokingly said a few flattering words, and finally said that he was going to move before he
hung up the phone.
After the call, Colin and Faye look at each other.
Faye looked at him and asked, "You forgot to tell Alexander?"
Colin's fingertips, which had just been lingering on Faye's ankle, were now running on her slender leg.
He said, "I was busy engraving the ring in the morning and forgot to call him."
Colin added, "Don't worry. I have informed Ethan. Ethan will not take action against Jake."
Ethan was much more powerful than Alexander.
Hearing this, Faye felt much relieved.
Seeing Faye's expression softened, Colin leaned closer to Faye's ear and said in a deep voice, "Honey,
my birthday is coming soon. Could you put a bell on my ankle once as my birthday present?"
