My Fair Stunner novel (Faye and Colin)
Chapter 437 Let Go

Chapter 437 Let Go

When Faye walked out of Carlotta's bedroom, she found Colin was on a call before the French window.

He was holding an unlit cigarette in his mouth and the collar of his shirt was unbuttoned. He asked with a spurious smile, "Are you sure?" When he finished the words, Faye wrapped her arms around his waist.

Colin slightly raised his brows, put his palm on Faye's hand, and patted it. Then he turned around and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

Faye only rested her head on Colin's back quietly.

Colin asked again with a nasal sound.

Faye said in an upset voice, "You may go on. Let me hug you for a while."

Colin said with a chuckle, "Well."

Then he continued the call and said to the person at the other end of the phone, "Ethan, you may go on."

Ethan asked, "Does Faye have any problem?"

Colin replied calmly, "Nothing. She just wants to hug me."

Both Ethan and Faye were rendered speechless.

Not getting any response from Ethan, Colin continued teasingly, "Don't take it to your heart. It's normal for married couples."

Ethan sneered and asked, "Are you humble-bragging?"

Colin asked in a pretended innocent voice, "Am I?"

Ethan was annoyed yet amused. He retorted, "Be confident. Save your question. Of course, you are. And it's apparent."

Colin clicked his tongue and asked, "Are all single old men so sensitive?"

Ethan questioned, "Whom are you alluding to? Abbot?"

Collin said, "I'm recording our call."

Ethan scolded, "You're so nasty."

Eight times out of ten of Colin and Ethan's joking arguments would end in a draw. As for the rest two times, probably it was because one of them had made a mistake.

After joking with Ethan for a while, Colin came to the point with a smile, "Assign some men to investigate that thing in the prison."

Ethan replied, "Okay. I see. I call you to inform you in advance so that you can get mentally prepared."

Colin said, "I'm looking forward to it if he's still alive."

When chatting with Ethan, Colin also paid great attention to Faye's mood.

Feeling that Faye was tightening her hug, he felt so touched.

Ten minutes later, Colin hung up his phone.

Faye withdrew her hands, walked to Colin, and stood by his side.

Colin put his phone into his pocket and asked with a smile, "What did you and aunt talk about?"

Faye answered honestly, "I encouraged her to pursue her own happiness bravely."

Colin's smile widened as he said, "Good job."

Faye looked back at Colin and said with a smile, "Seems like I can let go of some matters."

Colin turned around to face Faye, reached out to pull her into his embrace, and hugged her tightly. "Honey."

Faye took a breath. Not wanting to worry him, she shifted the topic and asked, "What did you talk about with Ethan just now?"

Colin replied, "Colin said that it seemed like Blaine was still alive."

Faye asked in shock, "What?"

Colin chuckled scornfully and continued, "Saints must have a mistake in a thousand of considerations, and fool people must have a gain in a thousand of considerations. Blaine had made a good move. He even managed to deceive Brandon. But probably he hadn't expected that Ethan would send his men to investigate him."

Faye said, "Brandon is a thoughtful person, how would he make such a stupid mistake?"

Colin tilted his head and landed a kiss on Faye's hair, asking, "What do you think of it?"

Faye realized something after pondering for a while and said, "Something was wrong with the men sent by Brandon into prison."

Colin chuckled, not commenting on it.

Faye continued, "It must be Maxwell!"

Colin curled his lips into a smile and said, "Honey, is it appropriate for you to be so smart?"

Faye replied with a bright smile, "It's not difficult to guess this."

Colin said, "Then guess why Maxwell did this."

Faye replied, "We know little about Maxwell and Brandon, nor do we know about what has happened between the two. It's hard to guess it."

Colin appreciated this aspect of Faye the most - she was smart, but she wouldn't think herself clever and act accordingly.

She would never make wild guesses about things that she was ignorant of.

Colin chuckled when he heard Faye's words and said, "Maxwell and Brandon are especially similar in an aspect."

Faye added, "They could endure hardships to accomplish some ambition."

The next day...

It was six o'clock in the morning and Faye and Colin were still sleeping. But Colin's phone which was placed on the bedside table suddenly rang.

Colin reached out for his phone with a frown and answered the call, "Hello?"

York's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Mr. Farrell, your grandfather passed away."

Colin immediately sobered up when he heard the words. He sat up on the bed, took a glance at the sleeping Faye, and asked in a low voice, "When did he pass away?"

York replied, "Half an hour ago."

Colin said, "I see."

York wasn't in a hurry to end the call when he heard Colin's words.

Colin sensed something wrong and asked with a frown, "What's wrong?"

York replied naturally, "Madame Farrell asked when you and Mrs. Farrell would come back."

Colin answered, "At about eight."

York replied, "Okay."

After hanging up his phone, Colin thought of York's deliberate pause during their call. He concluded something must have happened in the Farrells' Mansion and there must be someone beside York. He couldn't report to him directly, so he chose to deliver the information to him in that manner."

When Colin was lost in thoughts, his phone vibrated.

Colin looked down. A message popped out on the screen: Brandon shows up.
