Anything For Her

When they arrived at Wisteria Apartments, Tristan filled the bathtub with hot water and added a few drops of essential oil before carrying Sophie into the bathroom.

“Don’t you think you’ve been getting a little too familiar with carrying me, Mr. Tristan?” Even though Sophie said that, she still wrapped her arms around his neck.

Tristan let her down once they were inside the bathroom. “I’m happy to serve you. If you don’t feel like moving, I can even help you with—”

“No need.” She immediately pushed him out and leaned against the door. It’s a little worrying that the great Mr. Tristan is willing to do so much for me.

“Guess I’ll stay inside longer.” The weather changed very fast. Even though it was just rain during fall, the weather was already quite cold.

She took off her clothes and entered the bathtub.

Upon immersing herself in the warm water, Sophie let out a satisfied moan.

Tristan was someone who enjoyed the finer things in life, which was why he had bought a tub that would keep the temperature constant. The water would remain warm for as long as she wanted to stay inside. There was no need to worry about it going cold.

Outside, he took a simple bath and changed into a casual outfit.

When he got out, he heard Sophie’s phone ringing.

Since she hadn’t left the bathroom yet, he picked up the phone.

There was a string of numbers on the screen without a name.

Tristan didn’t answer the phone and simply knocked on the bathroom door. “You got a call. There’s no name listed on the screen.”

“Okay. I’ll answer it after I get out in a moment,” Sophie answered.

“Don’t spend too much time inside. Otherwise, you’ll faint.”

“Mm-hmm.”

Sophie only left the bathtub and changed into a casual outfit after she heard the door closing.

Then she glanced at the phone and saw it was from Butterfly.

“What’s up?”

“You finally picked up the phone. I thought something had happened to you.”

“What can possibly happen to me? Oh yeah, Captain Sheppard brought Dr. Yarren back. He asked me for your number, saying he wants to thank you.”

“That’s good to hear. There’s no need to give him my number, though. You know, Captain Sheppard is quite a good talker at Jipsdale. It won’t hurt you to know him better.”

“No need.” Sophie was used to being alone. It was just by coincidence that she formed Wings of Light.
