Anything For Her

Chapter 719 Register Our Marriage First

His hands that roamed around her body caused her to tremble involuntarily.

Sophie grabbed his large hand and said, “All right, that's enough. You'll end up suffering if you continue.”

It was the same every time.

They had yet to reach the last step, but sometimes, he'd touch the forbidden areas.

In the end, he would have to take a cold shower to calm himself down. Unfortunately, because of the cold weather, he could be at risk of catching a cold if he relied too heavily on cold showers.

Tristan placed her on his lap so they were facing each other.

He captured her lips in a passionate kiss as though that was the only way to quell his desire. However, the longer their kiss lasted, the more he could not suppress his desires.

Sophie flung her arms around his neck as her breathing grew heavy. Drained of energy, she sprawled on his chest.

Tristan was pleased to discover that she had gained some weight.

He was beginning to feel his resolve waning as she was utterly flawless in his eyes.

The top few buttons of Sophie's pajamas were undone. Her shoulders were half exposed, and she looked especially alluring.

“You look gorgeous,” he rasped on the verge of losing his self-control. “Why don't we register our marriage first?”

He didn't think he could wait until the day of their wedding.

Sophie felt both speechless and amused.

She couldn't help but wonder if men were all the same. Tristan was obviously aiming for a home run so they could finally be united.

As she said nothing, Tristan grew anxious. “What's wrong?”

Has she regretted her decision to marry me?

Seeing that, Sophie burst into giggles and bent her head to bite his shoulder.

“Mm...” Tristan let out a low groan. However, the sound he made merely made the environment steamier.

“Why? Does it hurt? I'm sorry. I didn't do it on purpose,” Sophie apologized profusely. Just like him, she had also lost her self-control. “If you want to register our marriage first, that works. I won't say no.”

She had already decided to spend the rest of her life with him, so it didn't matter when they got married.

Tristan felt a surge of happiness as he quickly said, “I'll get someone to pick a suitable date for us.” He had never been one to believe in superstitions and omens, but when it came to his own wedding, he was unwilling to take any chances and opted to get a professional to determine an auspicious date for the big day.

“All right. Before that, I'd like to visit my grandpa to tell him about the good news in person,” Sophie uttered. Josiah adored Tristan, so she knew he'd be delighted to learn about their wedding.

“Mm, I'll come with you,” Tristan agreed.

It would be best if he were to accompany her to deliver the good news.

“Sure!”

Yale couldn't help but feel like an animal caught in the headlights when he looked into Tristan's eyes. Tristan always evoked fear within him.

There were so many rumors about Tristan in Jipsdale that could spark terror in anyone.

“Mr. Tristan, why are you here today?” Yale asked anxiously as he couldn't stand the silence anymore.

Tristan said, “No matter how you treated Sophie in the past, you're still her parents. We're going to get married soon, so I hope you won't disappoint her in the future.”

Sophie had grown strong enough to no longer need the protection of her parents, but as a twenty-year-old, she still longed for the comfort and security that only a family could provide.

Alas, Yale and Charmaine's actions had always disappointed her.

Yale was surprised to learn that they were getting married, as he assumed Tristan was merely fooling around with Sophie.

He never knew they would end up as husband and wife.

“Mr. Tristan, are you serious?” he asked incredulously. The Lombard family is influential and powerful. Why would they approve of Sophie as their daughter-in-law?

Tristan furrowed his brows at his words.

“What do you mean by that? Sophie deserves the best of everything in the world!” he snapped. I can't believe such parents exist in this world.

Even Charmaine was staring at Tristan in disbelief. “Are you sure you want to marry Sophie?”

After all, Sophie's reputation in Jipsdale made many shy away from her.

“You don't have to prepare anything. All you have to do is to attend our wedding,” Tristan said.

He wanted to give Sophie an unforgettable wedding. That was why he had come here to extend an invitation to her parents.

“Mr. Tristan, will you treat her well?” Charmaine asked doubtfully.

When she first married Yale, she had been filled with joy and optimism. However, the reality of married life quickly set in, and she soon realized that things were not as straightforward as she had initially anticipated. She came from a simple background, and this was something that her father-in-law did not appreciate. No matter how hard she tried to fit in, she was never good enough to gain their approval.

“Sophie is different, so she'll definitely be happy,” Tristan said icily. He had only come here today to warn them not to say anything that might upset Sophie.

Sophie might not take their hurtful comments to heart, but he didn't want them to speak those words.
