Chapter 1853

Colby found himself dropping to one knee almost without realizing it. Slowly, he said, "Ms. Sophie, please forgive my earlier rudeness. If you're still upset, the Costello family has plenty of water-feel free to splash some at me."

"Are you out of your mind?" Sophie exclaimed, practically tripping over her own feet as she fled the scene in haste.

Colby's gaze darkened unconsciously. Why on earth had he knelt before Sophie like that?

Colby knitted his brows reflexively. "Mom, how many times have I asked you not to just barge in?"

"I'm sorry, honey, but I just couldn't hold it in this time!" she gushed, practically glowing with pride. "I just can't believe it! My son, giving roses to a girl!"
