Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 13 Flirting

know how to deal with Tristan’s behavior.Tristan knew that she wasn’t used to it, so he didn’t insist.Besides, he wasn’t in a hurry. He wanted to give her time to get used to his existence.Hence, Tristan handed her the bowl and spoon.Sophie took a bite and felt that it tasted pretty good. Hence, she slowly finished the bowl of oatmeal.“Want some more?”“I’m good. Thank you.”Sophie felt pretty awkward when Tristan, a person unrelated to her, cared for her this much.“Mr. Tristan, you may go. This is a hospital. It’s very safe.”“Sleep! I don’t mind sleeping on the couch for one night.” Tristan covered her with a blanket and lay down on the couch. He wasn’t planning to leave at all.“Mr. Tristan?”Sophie had never shared a room with another man. Although it was a ward instead of a room, she still felt awkward about it.“What’s wrong? Are you not tired yet?”Sophie remained silent.Fine. I saved his life before too.

I can manage.” To Sophie, having the prominent Mr. Tristan take care of her was highly unbelievable.“Work is never finished. Do you feel any discomfort? Should I slow it down?” Tristan adjusted her infusion tube.“It’s okay.”When he had the time, Tristan would sit on the couch and work. He would also look up at the infusion bottle and press the bell to call the nurse in time to change the IV drip.Due to her infusion, Sophie needed to go to the bathroom. Hence, she got up and wanted to walk to the bathroom with the infusion bottle by herself.However, Tristan had already walked over. He took off the infusion bottle from the stand and carried it. He
