Anything For Her

Chapter 638

Meanwhile, Sandra and Simon were picking some vegetables. Although the dining cost here was not expensive, the restaurant offered various kinds of vegetables to its customers, many of which were wild herbs.

The two soon filled their plates with all sorts of vegetables.

“Simon, are you okay? Actually, you don't have to be so sad. Sophie's boyfriend is so powerful. It's not shameful that you lost to him, right?”

All men would feel shame and inferiority in front of Tristan. A man like him was simply outstanding.

“I'm fine. Indeed, I'm not ashamed to lose to Mr. Tristan.” Besides, only a powerful man like Tristan is worthy of a woman like Sophie.

Other men were merely small fries.

Although he did feel a little upset, he wasn't ashamed at all.

His love had ended before it could even begin. He could only bow out of the competition when he learned that his opponent was Tristan.

The duo carried the plates of vegetables over. Meanwhile, Sophie had already placed the fish on the grill.

“Let's eat. It's getting late, and I need to take a nap later,” Sophie said, but she wondered if she would be able to fall asleep with a full stomach.

Tristan got some grilled fish for Sophie and said attentively, “You should eat more.”

Sophie had a small appetite, and Tristan thought that she should eat more.

Sandra was super envious when she saw how caring Tristan was toward Sophie.

Not only was Sophie's boyfriend handsome, but he was also very gentle and considerate. This made Sophie an object of jealousy for others.

“Simon, I'm tortured by their lovey-dovey acts.”

Simon didn't want to make any comments. He reckoned he shouldn't have gone there to have a meal with them.

“All right. You two help yourselves. I thought you said you wanted to eat BBQ? Why aren't you eating?”

“Relax. Since you are Sophie's friends, you are also my friends too.” Indeed, Tristan had a formidable aura, but they were just having a meal and shouldn't act as if they were walking on eggshells.

Sandra immediately served Simon a piece of grilled fish.

“Enjoy the food.” She hoped that food could lighten up his mood.

Simon nodded.

Tristan was at ease throughout the meal, although he looked quite out of place in the current setting. That was just how he was.

As long as he was willing to do so, he could easily adapt to the environment around him.

After the meal, Sandra and Simon went back to the dorm. Tristan commented while looking at their leaving figures. “Does Simon have a crush on you?”

Sophie's lips quirked into a grin.

“Maybe. Why? Are you jealous?”

“No. I'm not surprised that he likes you. I will have an exhausted life if I feel jealous of everyone who has a crush on you.”

Sophie held his arm, and the duo walked toward the car together.

The tweed, wool coats wrapped around their slender figures. Both of them had outstanding features and looked like perfect matches for each other. Their presence instantly commanded everyone's attention and envy.

When they reached the car, Tristan pulled the door open for Sophie and let her get in the car first. Then, he closed the door and walked to the other side, and got in the car.

“It's getting late. Do you still want to go back to rest?” There wasn't much time left for her to nap, even if she went back now.

“Yes. I don't have any classes in the evening. I'm going back to my condominium to write my thesis.” Her last thesis had been published and seemed to have won an award. She wasn't paying much attention to that, anyway.

It was now a norm for her to win awards from time to time.

Moreover, she didn't write those papers to win a prize but purely to share some of her thoughts and ideas.

“I see! Then let's head back together!” Tristan didn't seem to have anything to do in the evening, so he decided to hang out at Sophie's place.

“Aren't you quite busy lately? You should get to your business. I don't want to keep you any longer.” He really shouldn't spend more time accompanying her.

She was an adult and knew how to manage her time.

“I'm not that busy, just earning money. I realize now that money doesn't look as fascinating to me as before.”

“Do you know that your words would piss off those who are jealous of you?” Others were all working like a mule to make money, yet, a wealthy man like him was saying that earning money wasn't fascinating.

There was truly a vast difference between one human and the other.

“I'm merely telling the truth. Money is nothing but a number to me now.” Tristan spoke his mind.

Sophie nodded in agreement.

She was indifferent to the pursuit of money and felt content as long as she had enough to spend, despite her sometimes being a big spender.

To her, it was good enough that she was able to pay her bills from the money she had earned herself.

The two chatted while making their way back to the condominium. The slippers in the condominium had been replaced with plush ones, keeping their feet warm.
