Chapter 1511

Colby came back from overseas a week later, and by then, gossip about his and Sophie's marriage had hit fever pitch. Rumors were flying everywhere some folks said Sophie had checked out of the marriage and was now spending her days in Devonport, hanging out with young, handsome models. Others went so far as to claim she had a younger man stashed away at home and was romantically involved with Harold, the new head honcho of the Aldridge Estate.
