Chapter 428novelbin

Jenna's voice was loud enough for Colby to overhear. Sophie's face flushed rad. She glanced at Colby beside her and asked, "He... prepared a dinner for me?"

"Yes, yes, at the Regent Hotell Everything's set up already. We're just missing the lady of the evening. Adler and I are here to pick you up. Where are you?"

Sophie covered the phone, whispering, "You arranged something at the Regent Hotel for me?"

Colby shook his head.

Sophie immediately knew this was a surprise Jenna and Adler had prepared on Colby's behalf. Then... is Colby there?"

Jenna stuttered, "Of... of course he's at the Regent Hotel waiting for you!"

Sophie couldn't help but say, "Then, if Colby is supposed to be with you, who's this person with me now?"

"What? Colby's with you?"

Jenna jumped, and so did Adler, "What! You two are together?"

Both Adler and Jenna seemed ready to leap out of their car as Sophie heard the sound of an abrupt stop on the other end.

Adfer, grinding his teeth with frustration, exclaimed, "Why didn't you tell us sooner? Do you know I spent a fortune to book the entire Regent Hotel for this? You better come back here!"

"Yeah, celebrating without us, that's not cool!"

Though Jenna complained, her heart was already blooming with joy. She had thought her brother was unromantic, only to be pleasantly surprised in the end.

"We should be at the harbor...

Before Sophie could finish, Colby took the phone, saying indifferently, "We're not coming back tonight. Have fun."

After that, Colby hung up.

Jenna and Adler were left in shock. Adler finally managed to ask, "What does he mean by that?"

"He said they're not coming back tonight"

"What are they doing at the harbor?"

"Could it be..."

Jenna opened her mouth and then quickly covered it with her hand. Realization hit them like a tornado. Were they gonna spend the night together?

"I disagree! This is moving too fast! Drive to the harbor now I want to see this unfold!"

"Fine, let's go see. But what's this about moving too fast??

Adler, clearly in on Jenna's curiosity, was even mo eager for some gossip. So, he started the car not caring about the fortune spent, and headed straight for the harbor.

Sophie looked at the phone Colby had handed back to her trying not to laugh. "Why did you hang up on them?"

They were too noisy"

Colby took Sophie's hand, leading her upstairs.

Outside, the moon was bright, and stars scattered across the sky. Th winter sea breeze felt cold, turning the ocean a deep shade of black.

Wrapped in a blanket, Sophie sat on the terrace. All the lights were on with every entertainment device available. Colby handed her a cup of warmed milk. "Are you Cold?"

"I'm okay."

In a deep voice, Colby said, "I wanted to bring you here in the summer. It's indeed a bit late now"

"Summer? Did you buy this cruise ship?"

"Yes"

Sophie was taken aback, having thought Colby had only rented am cruise ship, but he had gone ahead and bought the entire vessel.

It's not too late now."
