Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 727 Do You Doubt My Stamina

“You feel like getting married as well? Who's the groom? Felix?”

“Will you give me your blessings, Aunt Sarah? There's a generation gap between Felix and I. Grandpa will definitely object. What about you? Do you have an opinion about it?”

In truth, Ysabelle was very much worried about that matter.

“You don't need to worry about that. With Felix here, he'll resolve everything. As for me, I naturally support you. As long as you're happy, you can be with anyone you like.”

Felix was a trustworthy man. Sarah was truly happy for Ysabelle for having found such a man.

At long last, a smile of relief bloomed on Ysabelle's face.

“As expected, you're the best, Aunt Sarah! No matter what I do, you always support me. I love you!”

Sophie, Ysabelle, and Sarah lay on the bed and chatted for a long time. Only when it was past midnight did they go to sleep.

When William woke up the following morning and spotted Sophie coming out from Ysabelle's room, his brows knitted together. I urged them to stay the night here to create an opportunity for them. Why didn't they cherish it?

The instant he was alone with Tristan, he couldn't help asking, “What's wrong with you, Tristan? Aren't you and Sophie going to get married soon? In that case, you two can naturally sleep together. I want to have a grandchild soon!”

He was only so enthusiastic about the couple's matters because he hoped that they would have a child earlier to keep him company.

Ah, I'm reminded of how fun Ysabelle was to play with when she was young! Now, they're all grown up and have their own careers. No one can stay at home to keep me company anymore. If Tristan and Sophie were to give me a grandchild, I could take care of the baby at home with peace of mind. Isn't that great?

Tristan was dumbstruck, words eluding him.

Good Lord! Why is he becoming increasingly out of control?

“Dad, we're not going to have children for the time being, so don't be all excited there alone.”

This time, William went speechless instead.

Why don't they want a child when they're going to get married?

“Listen here, Tristan. If the two of you want kids, have them earlier. I am still healthy now and can help you both to take care of them. When I'm really bedridden in the future, no one will be able to help you two!”

“That's enough, Dad. Sophie is still young, and she's currently busy with her career. How would she have the time to have kids?”

William promptly fell silent, saying nothing further.

Indeed, Sophie is exceedingly outstanding, so much so that it makes others envious. However, I'm really dissatisfied if she doesn't want kids.

When everyone had breakfast together in the morning, Sarah and Ysabelle looked enervated.

“What did you two do last night? Why are you looking all listless?” William did not know what to say when he took in their tired looks.

“I'm fine, Grandpa. I've just been too busy recently, so I haven't been having sufficient sleep.”

“I'm fine, too, Dad,” Sarah muttered while having breakfast.

Sophie was the only one who was still energetic upon waking up despite having talked deep into the night with them both.

Sure enough, people often have boundless energy when a happy event is around the corner.

“Sophie, are you both not planning to have kids for now?” William had restrained himself for a long time, but in the end, he snapped and put that question to Sophie directly.

Sophie jerked her eyes up and cast a glance at Tristan. Did he say anything? Why are we suddenly on this subject?

“You don't need to look at him. This is what I think. Tristan isn't young anymore, so the two of you should have kids earlier. That aside, I'm already advanced in years. If you both have a baby now, I can still help to take care of the baby. But if you're any later, I'm afraid I might not be capable of helping at that time.”

Those were his true feelings.

“That's a matter between us, Dad. You don't need to meddle in this!” No father-in-law asks their daughter-in-law such a question. How awkward!

“All right, you all continue eating. I'm going out to exercise.” Conversely, William didn't find anything improper about it.

Hah! Tristan simply adores her too much, so he's always thinking from her perspective in every matter! I'm his father, so I hope my son will have a child soon. Besides, their relationship will be even more stable after they have a baby, no? Young people nowadays are too casual about marriage and divorce. Considering how much he loves her, he's the one who'll be grieving if their marriage really reaches such a stage one day. Isn't that so? That's why I wish they'll have a child earlier.

Sarah and Ysabelle stared at the man's retreating back before exchanging a glance.

What's going on here? Why did this issue come up all of a sudden?

“Don't take that to heart, Sophie. We have the final say on whether we want to have a child. Others can't make the decision for us!”

In response, Sophie nodded.

It was indeed a tad embarrassing for her, but it wasn't too bad since the matter wasn't something shameful.

“Do you not want a child yet, Sophie? Oh yes, you're only twenty years old! You're just a little younger than me. Even I don't want a kid!”

We're still kids ourselves! How would we know how to take care of a child? It's best to table this for the future.

“Truthfully speaking, I only plan to have a child at twenty-eight years old!” Since getting together with Felix, Ysabelle had also planned out her life.
