Chapter 67 Traces of Love
Looking down at Faye's serious, sincere face, Colin stopped smiling, raising an eyebrow. "You wanna
cooperate with me?"
"Yes," Faye said firmly, while thinking, "Now that he has known what I plan to do, it is better to make
him my collaborator rather than an enemy. The Farrells are troublesome enough to me. Why do I
burden myself to make an enemy with him?"
Furthermore, she didn't want to make an enemy with Colin.
It was not only because Colin was powerful, but also that she held a sort of compassion toward him
after what happened today.
Colin straightened up and questioned, "But what can I get from our cooperation?"
"You can give it a try. It's more than you think."
Colin regarded Faye with his intense gaze, unspeaking.
Then when Faye was about to give up, he grinned. "Okay."
She smiled and reached out her hand to him, saying in a businesslike manner, "I hope we'll enjoy our
cooperation."
"Me, too." Faye shook hands with her.
Faye got out of the elevator ahead of him.
Colin walked slowly behind her, taking his time, and watched her open her room.
As she was about to enter the room, she turned to look at Colin. "I won't have dinner."
"Okay." Colin replied with a smile, knowing Faye was on her guard against him, being afraid that they
would do something they shouldn't have.
In her room, Faye stood against the door, a frown creasing her forehead, because there was an
indescribable feeling lingering in her heart, making her feel uneasy.
In the other room, Colin got a call from Abbot right after he entered.
"Where have you been? Colin," Abbot asked with a teasing tone.
Walking to the french window, Colin lit up a cigarette. "The temple."
Hearing that, Abbot took on a more serious tone. "How's your mother doing?"
"Hum! You should call her Nanny Silent," Colin said sarcastically.
Abbot sighed. "After all these years, you shouldn't..."
Colin interrupted, "Cut the crap. Or I'm hanging up." Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
As his friend for years, Abbot had a good understanding of Colin's bitterness. To avoid pissing him off,
Abbot changed the topic. "Did you go there alone?"
"With Faye," Colin said, flicking the cigarette ash off.
Abbot tutted and said, "I can't believe you have taken Faye to see your mom. Oh, no, Nanny Silent."
A half smile curled Colin's lips and he said, "I need to convince her I hate the Farrells."
"Good for you. You old dog," Abbot said.
"Anyway, I didn't lie to her." Colin wore a crooked smile.
Abbot was astonished by his words, denouncing and swearing at him.
"Do you think Faye will have compassion for me?" Colin asked, with a cigarette dangling from his lips.
"I guess she'll have more sympathy for you if you reveal your true self in front of her," Abbot said
meaningfully.
"Why?" Colin asked.
"You poor child. Your dad uses you to make money. Your mom wished you die when you were little. A
cold-hearted man will surely feel sorry for you, let alone Faye," Abbot said in a joking tone, but made
Colin lost in thought.
"Are you sure? Does it work?" Colin asked.
Abbot was stunned and then cried out, "Oh boy! Don't tell me you're going to this!"
"I won't," Colin said.
Abbot let out a sigh of relief. "I'm scared. I thought you..."
"I won't let her know all of it at once. I'll reveal my true self bit by bit unconsciously and make her feel
sorry for me."
Abbot choked with a complete surprise at his words, grinding his teeth in anger, saying with absolute
assurance, "I said you had fallen in love her. If I said it wrong, come and beat me."
"But I've been tired of beating you," Colin said.
Abbot blew a raspberry. "I'll call Faye later and tell on you."
"By the way, ask Jadon to take care of Faye's aunt," Colin changed the topic, remaining calm.
Abbot snorted. "Of course I will. Faye is my childhood friend and..."
"Does she take you as her friend?" Colin said ironically.
"You bastard," Abbot shouted.
The two chatted for another five minutes before Colin hung up the phone.
As Colin was about to put his cellphone in his pocket, he got a message. "Colin, Faye is a good girl. Be
nice to her. Believe it or not, I hope you'll live a happy life with her."
