Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 49 Change Your Clothes

few bites this morning, so eat more now.”Sophie held a fork in her hand and looked at him.“Don’t you have something to do today?”He doesn’t have to accompany me.“If you have something to do, you can leave after eating. I’m feeling much better now.” It wasn’t even a big deal. It was just a fever.“I’m free today.”Collaboration worth billions can’t compare to the girl sitting in front of me.“Fine then.”Sophie didn’t try to persuade him anymore since he said so.“Have some too, Mr. Tristan. Don’t just stare at me.”Only then did Tristan pick up his spoon, but he didn’t start eating. Instead, he started scooping more food for her.After he was satisfied that she wouldn’t go hungry, he finally dug into his food. The crease on Sophie’s forehead deepened with every bite. The food tastes quite bland today.“What’s wrong? Is the food not to your liking? Shall we change the housekeeper?”Sophie shook her head.“It’s fine.” This housekeeper is quiet and professional. I feel comfortable when I’m with her.“I’ll just have her add some condiments next time.”“You have the numbers for The Crown and Pegasus Pavilion, so just give them a call for food delivery if you don’t like the housekeeper’s food.”“I’m not that particular.” I’m fine as long as it’s filling. I’m not picky with food.After finishing lunch, Sophie couldn’t sleep anymore, so she settled onto the couch and watched the television.Tristan cleaned up the dining table, then took a seat beside her.He gently patted her head.“I’m fine now.”“That’s great to hear.”Even though it was just a common cold and fever, I was worried sick when I saw her lying unconscious on the couch. She didn’t even know how worried I was.Tristan left in the evening after getting an urgent call. He even ordered her to rest at home before he left.After he drove away, Sophie changed her clothes straight away. Ysabelle’s birthday is tomorrow, and I haven’t even bought her a present yet. I was too busy the past few days.Since she had already taken leave that day, she decided to spend the remaining time buying Ysabelle’s present. She got on her new bicycle and pedaled her way to Monarch Mall.After a period of observation, Sophie had a basic understanding of Ysabelle. A rich girl like her won’t lack presents, so finding a suitable gift for her will be challenging.Sophie entered a jewelry store, thinking of picking something out for Ysabelle.Dressed in a plain white t-shirt, black slacks, and canvas shoes didn’t get Sophie any warm greeting from the sales assistant. The sales assistant merely nodded at Sophie when she entered, then pretended she didn’t exist.Couldn’t care less about the sales assistant’s attitude, Sophie slowly studied each piece of jewelry on the shelf.Willow and a few of her friends were out shopping as well. She didn’t have to take any classes on Saturday, because she had art lessons.Yet, one call from Louisa and she skipped her lesson.Louisa loved shopping for luxury goods. The Yarborough family was wealthier than the Tanner family. Moreover, Louisa was the only child of the Yarborough family, hence the excessive love and pampering they gave her.A few other girls
