Anything For Her

Chapter 376

“No,” Sophie quickly replied. Is he joking? I can't let him meet Nicholas. Besides, Nicholas isn't even technically my friend.

Hearing that, Tristan told her, “Then I will stay with you as you rest at home.” They were heading back tomorrow, so he initially planned to bring her around today.

Alas, the weather was so bad that they had to stay at home.

“This trip is too rushed, so I don't have time to bring you out to have some fun. The weather isn't cooperating, too. Next time, then. We can go on a holiday after your university entrance exam ends,” he added.

We can go anywhere as long as she gets to relax.

Sophie nodded and got him a piece of pork rib.

“Eat up!”

After lunch, they spent half an hour in the living room before Tristan brought Sophie to her bedroom.

“Take a nap,” Sophie told Tristan.

She woke up late today, so she wasn't sleepy at this hour.

“Sleep with me,” Tristan implored as he took her hand.

“But I'm not sleepy at all. I want to read for a while,” Sophie protested. She had said everything in her mind to Nicholas, but she wasn't sure what he would do next.

Thus, the only way out was to be fully prepared.

No matter what Nicholas' plan was, she would never give in to him.

It was a difficult thing to achieve in Anglandur, but it wasn't entirely impossible.

Right then, Felix's call arrived.

Something important must've happened for him to call Tristan at this hour.

Thus, Tristan answered the call in front of Sophie. “What is it?”

“Mr. Tristan, guess who the person who attacked you sneakily was? I don't think you'll be able to guess the person's identity, though,” Felix declared.

“Just go straight to the topic,” Tristan ordered, as he disliked guessing games. Felix knows I cannot guess the person's identity, so why does he even bother asking me the question?

“Nicholas Sable,” Felix revealed.

Tristan remained silent, so he added, “Who could've guessed? We never crossed paths, so I don't know what got over him.”

Despite finding the culprit, he couldn't figure out the motive.

“Mm, I got it,” came Tristan's answer.

Felix asked, “Mr. Tristan, what's your next step?”

They were in Anglandur, so Nicholas had a better chance of succeeding if he were to take action.

“Isn't that your problem to solve?” Tristan returned. Felix has always been in charge of my safety. Did he ask just me what to do next? Seriously?

“All right, then. Have fun with your girlfriend. Leave everything to me.” Felix inhaled sharply. Ugh, Mr. Tristan is a lovesick fool!

“Mm. Let me know if you can't handle the matter.”

Felix was speechless. Did he just look down on me?

“Mr. Tristan, are you looking down on me? If I can't even deal with the matter, what right do I have to work for you?” Felix retorted. Is he joking?

Tristan reminded him, “Be careful. Nicholas is a psycho who will do everything he can to achieve his goals.” With an enemy like Nicholas, one would have to be more despicable than him or risk suffering a loss.

“Don't worry. I got it,” Felix assured him. He was in a hurry to solve the matter and return home.

My Ysabelle is alone in Jipsdale. I wonder how she's doing. A day has passed, but she hasn't contacted me yet. She doesn't even care about me.

Sophie instantly knew who attacked Tristan sneakily when she heard Nicholas' name being mentioned.

That was a good thing, for he was able to put his guard up.

Nicholas might be influential in Anglandur, but Tristan was no small fry.

As long as Tristan knew about the current situation, he would be able to sort everything out quickly.

After hanging up, Tristan tossed his phone aside.

“Nicholas Sable, huh?” he mused.

I can't believe Nicholas is bold enough to provoke me.

Sophie came over to him and said, “Be careful of this person. He's crazy.”

“Do you know him?” Tristan got curious.

She's right about that. However, she has always been in Chanaea and shouldn't know Nicholas Sable.

“Arius told me about him previously. Just be careful. I don't want you to get hurt,” Sophie said, her voice laced with concern.

He can't get hurt, ever.

“Don't worry. I'll be fine,” Tristan comforted her.

He was confident that Nicholas wouldn't be able to hurt him.

“Let's go. Even if you're not sleepy, lie in bed to get some rest. We will head back tomorrow so you can get over the jet lag. Remember, you still have to take your university entrance exam.”

“It's fine. I can get into Jipsdale University even if I take the exam with my eyes closed,” Sophie replied.

She wasn't worried at all.

“Young lady, you seem pretty confident in yourself,” Tristan commented.

Sophie chuckled. “Of course. Besides, the International Medical Association is waiting for me!”

“Do you want to join the International Medical Association?” Tristan asked. If she plans on joining the International Medical Association, she'll have to attend a university in Anglandur.

“Mm!” Sophie nodded.

After considering it for a long while, she still wanted to join the International Medical Association. Killing people isn't fun. Saving people is more fun!

Tristan nodded. “Looks like I'll have to shift my company's focus to Anglandur soon.”
