Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Overflowing Affection

Lying in Tristan’s embrace, Sophie felt extremely comfortable and closed her eyes.

Tristan’s frown disappeared when he saw how relaxed she was. He wrapped his arms around her.

Perhaps because they were genuinely tired or because they were with each other, they felt exceptionally at ease. The two quickly drifted off to sleep.

They slept soundly until past seven in the evening. Even Bertram and the others didn’t dare to wake them up for dinner. Instead, they waited till Tristan and Sophie were fully rested.

The two of them woke up simultaneously. However, even after awakening, Sophie didn’t feel like moving and kept her eyes closed.

It was a rare opportunity for her to finally relax. After all, she was truly exhausted.

“Time to get up and have dinner.” Regardless, they still had to eat dinner. Otherwise, it would be quite bad for their health, especially since Sophie was already quite thin, to begin with.

“Let me lie here a little longer! I really don’t feel like moving right now.” In reality, she could go eating. As she had quite a heavy lunch, she simply didn’t feel hungry at all.

“Your phone is ringing.”

She had put the phone on silent mode. However, Tristan saw the screen light up.

“Oh.”

Sophie got up and picked up her phone. When she saw that the call was from Caleb, she answered it.

“What’s the matter, Caleb? Did something happen at the Institute of Physics?”

“I’m doing well here, so don’t worry. I heard you went to Fandar. It’s a dangerous place. Please be careful, okay?” Caleb was genuinely concerned about her.

“Yeah, I know. If anyone dares to bully you at the Institute of Physics, let me know.”

“You don’t need to worry about me. I’m already a grown-up! How could anyone bully me?” Since it was a rare opportunity for him to pursue his passion, he truly cherished it.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up. I’ve still got to deal with something.” Although Sophie knew Caleb was sincere, she still wasn’t accustomed to his concern.
