Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 747

Chapter 747 A Trap

Knowing Barney was going out to eat with someone, Sophie naturally couldn't let him go alone. Hence, she decided to accompany him.

The restaurant that Remus invited them to was very famous in Anglandur. He was already waiting for them when they arrived.

He and his assistant had been standing outside the restaurant in the cold for a long time, deliberately putting on an act.

When Remus saw Barney and Sophie, he immediately rushed over to open the car door for Barney.

“Dr. Smith, you're finally here. I thought I would never see you again in this life!” Remus put on a pained and distressed look.

Arius rolled his eyes. What is he babbling about? What does he mean by not seeing us again in this life? We just went to Chanaea. Why would he not be able to see us anymore?

Meanwhile, Barney didn't bother with deciphering Remus' words.

“It's cold outside. Let's go in and talk.” Barney's accomplishments in medicine were unparalleled, but he was an honest and righteous person. Hence, he was not a match for Remus.

“Okay, Dr. Smith. This way, please!”

Remus instantly led the way.

Sophie and Arius followed behind Barney. The many bodyguards in charge of looking out for Sophie had to remain outside as they couldn't enter the restaurant.

Although their mission was to protect Sophie, they felt that she should be safe in a famous restaurant in Anglandur.

“Boss, are we really not going in to take a look?” Although it was a restaurant, it was still possible for something to happen inside.

“There's no need. They won't be in any danger for now,” the leader of the bodyguards responded. This was also why he allowed Sophie and the others to go in by themselves.

Otherwise, he would have followed them in already.


“I see!”

The young bodyguard who asked the question fell silent. He's right. We were all personally chosen by Mr. Tristan. Hence, we will never let anything happen to Ms. Tanner. We will definitely not disappoint Mr. Tristan.

Meanwhile, Barney and the others entered the private room. Barney took the main seat while Remus and Sophie sat to his left and right respectively. Arius then sat beside Sophie.

“Arius, there's been a bit of a misunderstanding between us. This time, I genuinely want to apologize to you guys. You should know that in a position like mine, many things are beyond my control. I didn't want to take over Dr. Smith's position, but I had no choice when it was the higher-ups' orders. Dr. Smith, you can understand this, right?”

Barney waved his hand.

“Remus, you don't have to explain. Since I decided to leave, I knew that someone would have to take my place. I have no thoughts on this matter, and you don't need to feel burdened,” he said.

“Dr. Smith, I knew you were a magnanimous person and wouldn't hold it against me. I really wanted to go to Chanaea with you, but as you know, my family and friends are all here. Since my family chose to stay here, I couldn't do anything about it,” Remus went on.

Barney laughed and replied, “It's okay, Remus. No matter what decision you made, I don't blame you.”

Upon hearing Barney's words, Remus finally felt relieved and turned to look at Sophie.

“This is...”

He recognized Arius, but he had never seen this gorgeous woman before.

“She's Sophie Tanner, Arius' girlfriend.”

Barney didn't want Remus to know Sophie's identity. The more people who knew about Sophie, the more dangerous it would be for her.

Anglandurns were known to be ruthless, and Barney didn't want to take any risks.

“Arius, you're so lucky. Ms. Tanner is really pretty. I have never seen someone this beautiful,” Remus stated.

Arius scoffed coldly.

He could care less about being polite with Remus. However, he understood Barney's intentions.

Sophie also had no objections to it since she knew Barney was trying to protect her.

However, she didn't eat much the entire meal.

It was difficult eating in the company of people she didn't like.

Also, she didn't talk much. Rather, she listened quietly to the conversation as if she didn't really understand what they were talking about.

Remus kept emphasizing how he wished Barney would come back to the medical association.

He also mentioned the recent happenings in International Medical Association.

However, it was impossible for Barney to return at that point. “Remus, don't say such things anymore. I feel at ease with you taking over International Medical Association.”

Since he was all about contributing to the study of medicine, it didn't matter which organization he was doing it in.
