Chapter 4 Family
When Faye came out of the kitchen, Colin had already coaxed Old Mr. Farrell into laughing.
Faye was not surprised to see this because he could win everyone's favor regardless of age or gender.
When it was about dinner time, the rest of the Farrells arrived home one after another.
Old Mr. Farrell had only one son, who was Colin's father, Blaine Farrell.
Blaine had three children, who were Hank, Colin, and Helen.
His current wife had given birth to Hank and Helen, but Colin was his childhood sweetheart's son.
So, their family atmosphere was harmonious but hypocritical.
During dinner, Madam Farrell added food to Colin's plate several times like a caring mother.
Seeing this, Helen pouted and complained, "Mom, you're always partial to Colin."
Madam Farrell smiled kindly, "Don't talk nonsense. You're all my children, and I love you three the
same."
Hank timely retorted elegantly, "Mom, you love Colin the most."
When the mother and her two children were echoing each other, Colin was having the soup with a
spoon like an outsider.
When Faye got up and cleaned the table together with the maid after the meal, Helen said in an
affectedly sweet voice, "Faye, cut an orange."
Faye calmly replied, "Okay."
Colin was talking on the phone beside the floor-to-ceiling window. When he heard their conversation,
he turned his head to look at Helen and asked, "What?"
Helen was stunned for a moment and then smiled, "I'm sorry I forgot you're married. I was used to
asking Faye for help. I will never do this again."
Then, she ran up to Faye, took her arm, and shook it like a spoiled child, saying, "Faye, I was wrong.
Can you forgive me?"
Faye smiled with alienation in her eyes and said, "Never mind."
Colin shot a glance at them and then continued to speak on the phone, "The person you mentioned is
not good! Find someone else to do it."
After the person on the other end of the phone said something, Colin replied with mockery, "Fine! You
handle it by yourself."
Hanging up the phone, he turned around and walked into the kitchen.
When Faye was washing dishes with her head down, he suddenly pulled back her hair hanging over
her ears and held it with his big hands, saying, "My grandpa asked us to stay overnight. Is it OK for
you?"
Hearing this, she froze for a while and then replied, "It's up to you."
Colin leaned forward, lowered his head to approach her red ear, and said in a seductive voice, "Don't
worry! I'll sleep on the sofa."
Faye subconsciously leaned forward and said, "Stay away from me."
Colin chuckled, "What are you afraid of?"
When Faye put the dish in her hand on the rack and turned to look at him, her hair slipped out of his
grasp, and then she said, "Farrell Media will hold an annual conference next month, so you mustn't
have any scandal exposed."
Colin put his hands in his pockets, rubbed his fingers against each other that had touched her hair, and
said, "What if any scandal is exposed?" Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Faye frowned, "Can't you restrain yourself for merely one month?"
Colin grinned, "It's too difficult."
Faye reached out to push him away and said, "Fine! Do whatever you please!"
Then, she walked out of the kitchen and went upstairs. Colin stopped smiling, turned to look at the
maid, and said, "Don't let her do housework anymore."
The maid was very afraid of him, so she answered with a blushing face, "She offered to help do
housework herself."
Colin smiled, "If I see her do housework again, you will be fired."
The maid was speechless.
When he get out of the kitchen, he bumped into Hank who had a refined and approachable demeanor.
He said, "Colin, can I have a word with you?"
Colin despised him the most, so he sneered and asked, "What's up?"
Hank handed him a glass of red wine and said, "Since you married Faye, you should take good care of
her. She looks strong on the surface, but she's quite fragile on the inside."
Colin took the red wine over, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Although others don't know why I
married her, I think you know the reason very clearly."
