Chapter 219 Flynn was Born in a Rich Family
"You're thanking me for what, pretty lady?" Flynn locked eyes with her as he lifted his thick eyebrows a
bit. His squinting eyes looked quite charming.
"Thank you for bringing me some red wine. It's really tasty." Sophia smiled politely to him.
Flynn made a sweet gesture to show his appreciation. Then he suddenly turned to look at Colin, and
said in a mocking tone, "Colin, she thanked you for the red wine you brought! She said it was nice and
she liked it. How about we give her some more? How about two more bottles?"
Then Colin finally looked at Sophia. He saw her casually sipping the red wine in her glass. "Are you
sure that two more bottles are enough? If not, how about four!"
Flynn chuckled at this thought. Removing his gaze away from Colin, he asked Sophia, "Sophia, I have
to say that no one is allowed to leave unless they have become drunk. Would you agree with that?"
"What? Hmmm..." Sophia was taken aback by surprise. However, she remembered her purpose here
and quickly regained her composure. "But I am, of course, no match against you when it comes to
drinking! As the boss, you can do whatever you like! But for poor me? I'm just an ordinary clerk. If I got
drunk and couldn't go to work tomorrow, I would lose all my bonuses and my money! I'm not that rich,
you know."
Flynn moved closer to her, "Don't worry about that. Why not come work with me in my company? You
can go to work if you are in a good mood, or go travel if you feel like you want a break. How about
that?"
Feeling uneasy of the intimate distance between them, Sophia moved further away from him as she
pretended to put down her glass of wine.
Flynn clearly saw how she negatively responded. Instead of getting angry, he felt more interested about
her. Flynn loved challenges.
Sophia Lo was different from those women who wished to get close to him as much as possible just so
they could share with his wealth and power. She was the only one who wanted to distance herself from
him. Wow, she was different! And it seemed like she was not pretending to keep him away. She really
meant it.
"Thank you, Mr. Fan. You have overestimated me so much, but I don't deserve your praises. I know Pei
Group is a nice place to work in, but I'm not planning to find a new employer yet. Thank you for your
offer." Sophia took up the wine glass again. But this time around, she walked farther away from Flynn
while sipping the wine. She was feeling a bit annoyed right now.
Flynn suddenly burst into a fit of laughter. Then he put his arm on Sophia bare shoulders as if she was
his girlfriend. This shocked Sophia so much that she dared not move. Her shock caused her to freeze
on the spot. Flynn clearly felt that her body stiffened in his arms.
"Don't be afraid! Come on! I'm just curious why Hugh is not your type? He is a very handsome and rich
young man. How choosy are you in selecting your partner? Tell me about your preferences." Sensing
her growing uneasiness, Flynn slowly let go of her.
While Flynn was talking to her, Sophia saw Colin at the corner of her eyes. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Sophia sensed how furious Colin had become when Flynn suddenly took her into his arms. Sophia felt
a bit glad that Colin was still jealous whenever a man was around her like that.
"You must be joking, Mr. Fan. Hugh deserves a better woman than me. I'm just an average woman."
"Alas! Please stop calling me Mr. Fan. That is too formal especially when we get closer to each other.
How about I call you Sophia and you call me Flynn? That would be so sweet and endearing." Flynn
fumbled with his glass while he leisurely leaned against the chair.
It was easy to see that Flynn was indeed born and raised with a rich family as he spoke and behaved in
a graceful manner. He had sophisticated manners and words.
He was as sophisticated as Colin. And their demeanor was associated with the education they had
received.
"But Manager Fan, we just met each other for the first time. Wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to
address each other in such an intimate way? I think it's still not time for us to be that intimate with each
other." Sophia was a bit embarrassed but just smiled through it. She could, of course, understand how
a man felt about her just by taking a look into his eyes. She knew that Flynn was flirting with her.
Flynn shook his head in disagreement before expressing how he felt. "It's okay. You don't have to be so
polite to me. To be frank, Sophia, I like you very much. Even though we only met a while ago, I already
feel comfortable with you. And you are so beautiful that I'm sure that I want to be with you for the rest of
my life."
What did she just hear? Did he really mean that or maybe he just drank too much wine already?
Sophia was completely taken aback by Flynn's sudden confession. She wondered what was his
purpose in saying those words.
Sensing that his words stunned Sophia, Flynn, somehow, felt... how cute and alluring she was. Wow!
She was definitely the most beautiful woman he had seen. "If you don't like Hugh, then I'm available. I
could be your boyfriend if you...just agree."
Sophia was rendered speechless again at how bold Flynn was. When she was in Milan, she also met
somebody who truly admired her. But he was by no means as straightforward as Flynn. Flynn was
terribly fast in trying to win her heart. As she was very awkward in socializing with people, Sophia felt
quite embarrassed at how Flynn was treating her. She didn't know what to do now.
Fortunately, Hugh and Herring were done singing. Then they walked towards Sophia and Flynn.
As they finished singing, an enthusiastic applause from the crowd showered the two men.
Sophia was glad that she could finally get rid of Flynn. However, Flynn suddenly grabbed her arm, and
said, "Sophia, let's go and sing a song together! That will be fun! Come on!"
...
Before she could even refuse, Flynn dragged her towards the karaoke area.
Sophia had to put down her wine glass on the table in a hurry as she followed Flynn in her high-heeled
shoes. It was really difficult for her to run without looking awkward...
Watching Sophia and Flynn rushing away from them, Herring approached Hugh and whispered at his
ear, "How interesting this is developing! It seems that you and Colin have one more rival in your pursuit
of Sophia. Flynn is a competitor that you cannot afford to underestimate! He has always loved
challenges!"
The Fan Clan that supported Flynn was noble and influential in the Green Cold Country.
Hugh did not respond with anything. He just stared at the two people who were busying themselves
selecting songs. Then he shifted his gaze towards Colin, who was still very quiet, Anyway, it was too
early to say who would win Sophia's heart until the last minute.
Sophia seldom sang a song in public. She felt really uncomfortable at the thought of performing in front
of many people. But sometimes, she sang songs when she was alone. Unlike Sophia, Flynn was a real
good singer. And he could even sing all the new songs! He was really a talented man!
Finally, they chose a song entitled Because of Love.
It was a love song that was supposed to be sung by a couple. Thanks to the call girls, the atmosphere
in the room became lively and full of joy.
Flynn sang first. "Give you an old CD. Listen to our songs of love in the past. Sometimes I would
suddenly forget that I'm still in love with you."
Sophia cleared her throat and got ready for her part. Then with a pleasant, mellow voice, she sang, "I
can no more sing a song of love from the past. The songs that make you hide with a flushed face..."
All the people could only see the beautiful silhouette of Sophia from the behind. She sang in a voice so
pleasant and gentle that all of them were impressed by this side of hers that they had never known
before. She was indeed different and versatile!
Herring had exchanged his seat with Hugh. As soon as he approached Colin, he pushed away the call
girl sitting beside. "I must sit next to Colin. Move!"
Although the call girl hesitated, she still reluctantly moved aside. "Please, Master Huo. Take your seat."
No sooner had Herring sat between Colin and Hugh than he began to voice out his opinions. "Sophia
Lo is in need of a man who knows how to boldly make the first move. See! I have never heard her sing
a song before. But she is singing for Flynn, although they have just met for the first time. Flynn really
knows his thing. Right now, he is better than you! What's more, it is quite fascinating to hear a nice
song sung by such a beautiful woman!"
"You have to be bossy to Sophia! You must not back down from her! And you must be bossier if she
treats you in a similarly bossy way! You have to work to win her heart!"
"I think Flynn fancies Sophia. Just look at the way he stares at her. Wow... full of admiration and desire.
If you don't get your act moving, Flynn will get the best of you."
Colin did not say anything.
Hugh became totally silent too.
Dorothy was sitting next to Colin. In spite of her gracefulness and elegance, she kept casting looks of
jealousy at Sophia from time to time. She was envious of all the attention that Sophia attracted. She
knew very well that Sophia was a good singer when she and Payne had not completely cut off their
relationship.
But it was beyond her expectation that Sophia would be given a chance to show off her singing talent
today. Why today when Colin was here in this very room?
However, she felt relieved that Colin has not looked at Sophia since the moment she stepped inside the
room. Maybe Colin was not interested in her anymore.
Dorothy felt elated while thinking of this. As Colin seemed to be indifferent towards Sophia Lo, his only
wish might be that their marriage will soon happen. She didn't have to worry about Colin's feelings for
Sophia anymore.
Sophia and Flynn finished singing soon after. Sophia put down the microphone, and looked at the
enthusiastic audience with her charming smile.
Hugh stood from his seat, walked to Sophia, and pulled her to his side. "Sophia, that was some good
singing! Come on, sit here."
Flynn glanced at him, and grinned. He didn't feel worried, at all. Colin and his fiancee were so intimate
that they seemed to love each other very much.
However, it only seemed...maybe pretentious?
Sophia could not help but clench her fists as she passed by Colin. The group was playing a game while
drinking. As a consequence in the game, Dorothy must give Colin a kiss, and she did kiss him...deeply
and passionately.
