Chapter 774 Dear, Do You Still Think You're the Previous Mr. Farrell
That sound made Colin's eyebrow twitch involuntarily.
As soon as the other end finished talking, Colin was concerned about Carlotta might overhear the conversation, so he lightly patted Faye's shoulder and got up to answer the call.
A brief pause on Colin's end led the caller to feel elated, thinking that he was waiting for her response.
Before Colin could reach the second floor, he heard the woman on the phone feigning a tone, "Mr. Farrell, I am your anchor, Amelia Parker. Do you have time tonight? I'd like to invite you for coffee."
Upon hearing that, Colin halted in his tracks.
Amelia Parker?
The name sounded familiar to Colin.
Not because of the unconventional gift she had sent, but because Faye had mentioned that name before.
Colin turned to look at Faye.
Faye was engrossed in conversation with Carlotta. When she noticed that Colin was gazing at her, she turned around.
Colin mouthed, "Honey, come over."
Seeing that, Faye turned back to Carlotta and said, "Carlotta, give me a moment. I need to talk to Colin."
Carlotta smiled gently and said, "Go ahead."
Faye got up and walked toward Colin. On the steps, Colin leaned down to whisper in her ear, "It's Amelia."
Faye tilted her head and looked up. Colin suddenly smiled, "She's quite audacious."
While Colin was speaking to Faye, Amelia, who was on the phone didn't stop at all. She was playfully teasing Colin with a shy and flirtatious tone.
"Mr. Farrell, did you receive that nightgown?"
"Do you like it?"
Amelia tried to act coy over the phone and asked, "Mr. Farrell, do you have time tonight?"
As Amelia spoke, Colin intentionally moved the phone closer to Faye's ear.
After Amelia finished speaking, Colin raised an eyebrow at Faye and said, "Honey?"
While Faye listened to Amelia's words, she didn't get angry and she was smiling instead. Her red lips moved and said, "It's coming to you. Take care of it."
With that, Faye reached out and hooked the collar of Colin's shirt, pulling it down.
Colin naturally leaned down and lowered his head. Then, Faye whispered near his ear, "Dear, do you still think you're the previous Mr. Farrell?"
Colin chuckled softly and asked in a low voice, "Am I not?"
"If my answer is yes, are you brave enough to admit it?" Faye's words trailed off, and she leaned forward slightly, biting Colin's ear with her red lips lightly.
Colin let out a soft "hiss" and the hand around Faye's waist tightened suddenly.
Faye released her bite, blew warm air against Colin's ear, and said, "Handle it properly."
Colin nodded and assured her, "Don't worry, honey."
A smile appeared at the corner of Faye's lips and she said, "I'll go keep Carlotta company first."
Colin replied, "Go ahead."
Faye turned and headed downstairs.
Colin brought the phone back to his ear, and the person on the other end was still speaking in a sweet and coy manner.
"Mr. Farrell, did you even hear what I said?"
Colin's tone became serious and answered, "I've been busy lately. I don't have any time."
Upon hearing that, Amelia was overjoyed beyond words. Since Colin hadn't refused, it was a sort of indirect acceptance of her.
Amelia could barely conceal her excitement and she asked further, "Then, when will you have time?"
Colin shifted the topic and said, "I heard there's a transformation for the anchor role recently. I'd like you to be the pioneer of this transformation."
Amelia's emotions were beyond excitement now. She asked, "Is... that alright? What if Ms. Nash finds out, I'm afraid..."
Before Amelia could finish her sentence, Colin interrupted in a stern tone, "I have something to attend to right now. Robert will contact you."
Colin hung up the phone and immediately dialed Robert's number.
Once the call was connected, Robert greeted, "Mr. Farrell."
"Are you at the office?"
