Amber knew if she didn't say something now, she might get no chance in the future. She said bluntly, "I actually liked you, but you took over my life. For years. Without asking me. I'm pissed at you for that."

She was a woman with a soft heart. Colman was kind to her when he wasn't being a control freak. What woman wouldn't be moved by that? She could tell he was sincere from the way he treated her. It wasn't just because he had money. He used money as a tool, and that didn't factor into her decision.

He was earnest and really cared about her. If she needed help, he would show up in person. That was sweet.

On her birthday, he kissed her in front of her boyfriend. That was when she figured out she had feelings for him.

He knew Amber was angry at him. He leaned against a tree and smiled bitterly.

"I hadn't broken up with Leon yet, but you just pulled me away from him like that. You forced me to betray him. I broke up with him because of you, but you didn't even let me say goodbye. What's up with that? You ever think about Leon's feelings? His best friend betrayed him. His girlfriend did the same. How do you think he feels about that? You're a selfish guy, Colman Huo."

'I'm selfish?' Colman took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, put one in his mouth, took out the lighter and was ready to hit the striker.

Amber walked over and stood in front of him. She raised her head and looked at him angrily. "Can I bum one off you?

Let's smoke together." He wasn't really attracted to women who smoked, so he tucked the one in his mouth in his pocket, and quietly put the pack away.

"You never ask me what I want. You only give me what you think is good for me. That's not right." She knew it was his way of being good to her, but she didn't feel he respected her at all.

She finally found the chance to pour out her feelings, pick out any inconsistencies, and lay bare her thoughts for the past few years. She didn't worry about what he thought. He needed to hear it.

Colman just listened quietly. He didn't say anything, even if there were misunderstandings.

An hour later, she said her piece and was tired, and finally stopped talking. It was emotionally draining to do this.

"Thirsty?" Colman asked with a smile.

In fact, she was thirsty. After all, she had been speaking for an hour now. Her mouth felt like the ground in the desert. But she was still angry and said impatiently, "I'm not thirsty!"

"I think you are!" he said.

"I said I'm not thirsty! Mmmph!" In a single quick movement, she was encircled in his arms, and he kissed her passionately.

Then, Amber left to catch her flight. She went abroad for further study.

At first, Colman thought he would just give up on Amber. Even she thought things would fall apart right here.

However, three months later

At a univer

art.

Amber said nothing. She had mixed feelings.

After he said that, any guilt she had over Leon vanished like a ghost.

The second day, the couple went to Tow Village. Colman took Amber to see the place where his mom and his three brothers had lived when they were kids.

But Tow Village had changed a lot. Things had grown up around there. Businesses had moved in. It was a lot different than it was twenty years ago.

However, the house they had lived in had been torn down, replaced with a three-story building.

Although he felt a little sad about it, Amber was good at talking him through it. He got over it quickly.

During the honeymoon trip, Amber was pregnant. Three months later, they found out she was carrying twins.

At the end of the new year, a pair of beautiful girls were born. The Huo family members had been immersed in happiness for a long time. After all, the men in the family all loved little girls and lavished their attention on them.

And that was when Amber figured out another layer of Colman's deception. He was the one who had taken those photos he had shown to Leon. He spread the rumors she was having an affair.

He hired those boys to get close to her. When Leon tried to get to that boy close to her with a group of his friends, Colman hired some men to protect the boy. He made sure that whoever he'd set up was protected.

Colman was not allergic to shrimp, either. It was all just part of his plan to make sure she would fall for him.

Every time she was in a bad mood after fighting with Leon, Colman made sure he'd be there to comfort her. He hadn't left anything to chance. Her husband just made it look that way.

It was the perfect plan, and perfectly executed. He had everything planned out. He would poach Amber from his best friend and make her his woman. He was a match for even the most devious members of the Huo family.
