Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 753 A Cold Shower

Richard believed all that mattered was Nicholas' happiness. So why did he have to worry about anyone else?

It was because of what Richard said that Nicholas was going to be doomed in the future. He seemed to have found validation from someone else.

As such, Nicholas was going to be even more reckless.

In the meantime, the entire group arrived at Jipsdale airport at midnight. After leaving the aircraft, everyone soon saw Sophie's perfect man waiting for her.

It was going to be Christmas soon. During this time, the weather in Jipsdale became much colder. The man was dressed in a matching suit paired with a black coat. This made him look even more dashing.

After seeing the beautiful girl step off the aircraft, the man softened his expression almost immediately.

It's good that she came home safe. That's all that matters to me. Tristan was quite happy.

“Sophie, your boyfriend is here!” Butterfly only had a black backpack on her.

When she saw such a striking man before her, Butterfly couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy.

Falling in love seems to be a nice thing. At least there's always someone who will be thinking of you, no matter what. They would also do anything for you.

“Yeah,” said Sophie.

When Sophie saw Tristan, her heart softened too.

Before that, no one would give her such an intense feeling. “You're right. You do need some time to find someone who loves you.”

Amid her happiness, Sophie then realized that no matter how strong or capable a woman was, she still wanted someone to cuddle with at the end of the day.

When she left the aircraft, Sophie hastily rushed over to Tristan, who stood there with open arms.

He then caught Sophie and held her tightly in his embrace.

“You're finally home.” While it was only two days, it felt like forever to Tristan.

“Yeah. I've missed you too,” said Sophie. In the beginning, Sophie could not comprehend Tristan's feelings or his passion.

Yet now, Sophie felt the same way toward him. She now understood that when one fell in love, the longing they felt for one another was just like the tide.

“Let's go! It's very late. We should head home.” Now that Barney's problems are over and done with, everyone can go home and rest with ease.

“You're right. Let's go home.” Sophie had never once associated the word “home” with warmth before.

At the mention of this word, Sophie could feel warmth coursing through her heart.

Tristan asked the driver to send the others home. He was going to drive Sophie back to the mansion on his own.

By the time they arrived at the mansion and had a shower, it was already two in the morning. However, Tristan still insisted on keeping Sophie company.

“Why don't you sleep? It's late. You should go to bed early,” murmured Sophie while brushing her hair. She then gave Tristan a sideways glance.

“I just want to be by your side forever,” replied Tristan.

The corners of Sophie's lips were curved into a smile.

“Tell me. Do your business associates know just how clingy you are?”

“So what if they do know? Or what if they don't? I really don't care. All I know is that I love you, and I want to be with you. It doesn't matter what everyone else thinks.”

Tristan definitely had the right to be so strong-willed.

“Okay, then.”

Tristan picked up the towel and began to dry Sophie's hair. Sophie willingly let him take care of her, given that so many things had happened today. She did not want to move a muscle.

On top of that, it was a very long flight back home. Sophie was very tired. She leaned across the couch and enjoyed Tristan's special treatment of her.

Tristan was a very careful person, and this was especially prevalent in the way he treated Sophie. His movements were gentle. By the time Tristan had dried Sophie's hair enough, she had already fallen asleep.

As Tristan looked at her beautiful face while she was in a deep sleep, his expression subconsciously loosened up and became even softer.

“Silly thing. I bet you're tired.” Tristan's silly girl was definitely very adept. She was able to solve so many problems.

However, Tristan did wish that she was not so adept as well. That way, he could always stay by Sophie's side and protect her.

After mulling over this for a while longer, Tristan realized that this was also a conundrum.

It was precisely because of Sophie's capabilities that Tristan was able to feel less worried for her. If Tristan were not around, he could count on Sophie to take care of herself.

Tristan leaned over and placed the softest of kisses on Sophie's lips. He then carried her over to the bed and tucked her in.

“Goodnight, my princess. I hope you dream of me.” Tristan hoped that as long as Sophie dreamt of him, they were going to be good dreams.

He also hoped that he was able to give her all the happiness in the world.

At the moment, Sophie had a happy smile gracing her lips.

Seeing her this way made Tristan feel even more satisfied.

“It's okay. It's just a year. In one more year, you will be my bride. When that happens, I won't let you go so easily.”

Tristan shifted helplessly, having noticed a bulge in his pants. Ever since he had met Sophie, he behaved like a young man who had not known carnal pleasures.

For some reason, he found it hard to control himself around her.
