Colby pointed to his cheek and whispered, "Givea kiss, and I'll tell you.".
"Colby!" Sophie's face turned red in an instant.

At first, she didn't think much of it, but now, looking back, it was all Colby's schto get to know her! "Alright, no more teasing." Colby stood up and said, "He slapped you twice. I'll settle the scores with him slowly. The five billion is just the first step. A quick kill might be easy, but a slow torment is far more painful." Sophie pursed her lips. "Will it be dangerous?"
