Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 375

Chapter 375

In the end, Sophie delivered a kick to Nicholas' stomach.

Nicholas might be good at fighting, but he held back when he was fighting against Sophie. After all, he didn't want to harm her.

Thus, he was actually in a disadvantageous position most of the time.

Sophie exerted all her strength to deliver that kick, so Nicholas staggered back a long distance before managing to regain his balance.

Seeing Nicholas suffering a setback, Alex promptly got to his feet.

“Boss, are you all right?” he asked worriedly.

The other men surrounded Sophie.

They can fool around, but she cannot hurt Boss. Otherwise, we'll be in deep trouble.

Sophie swept her gaze across them but didn't feel threatened at all.

“Why? Are you all joining him to fight against me? If that's your plan, come at me all at once. Don't waste my time.” Sophie knew Tristan would come here if she were to stay here any longer.

“Sophie, why are you doing this? Boss treats you well. How could you be this ungrateful?” Alex admonished her.

Boss literally fulfills her every request. He even went against Old Mr. Sable. She's being ungrateful.

“Stop it. What are you doing? I'm perfectly fine,” Nicholas assured with a smile. “I'll take my leave. You should consider my suggestion. I believe you know I'm not the type to give up easily. I will do everything that I can to get you.”

Sophie was rendered speechless.

To her, he was nothing but a lunatic. It was impossible to reason with a lunatic.

However, she knew it wasn't the time to continue their fight. She had to head home right away.

“Sophie, I'm being serious. I will kill Tristan if I have to,” Nicholas cautioned.

“I dare you to touch him.” Sophie wasn't going to cave into his threats.

Turning on her heels, she stalked out of the cafe. Indeed, she spotted Tristan's car outside when she was at the door.

He was heading to the cafe with an umbrella in his hands.

It was raining heavily, so Sophie halted in her tracks.

Nicholas was still inside. Her efforts would be in vain if they were to bump into each other.

That fool Nicholas won't come out right this moment, I think.

Tristan went over to her and closed his umbrella.

Standing beside her, he said, “If your friend is here, why don't you ask him or her to head to the mansion? You have everything you need there to welcome them. You shouldn't have come out as the weather is bad.”

Accidents were prone to happen in this kind of bad weather.

The cafe was only ten minutes away from the mansion, but Tristan was still worried.

“Never mind. It was just an ordinary friend, so I didn't want to bring him to the mansion,” came Sophie's response.

“Where is your friend? Has he left?”

“Yes, he's gone. Come on, let's go home.”

“Let me piggyback you. There are too many water puddles on the ground,” Tristan offered.

Sophie shook her head. “It's okay. I can change shoes back at home.”

“Come on,” Tristan urged. He was already crouching in front of her.

Sophie couldn't bring herself to reject him yet again, so she climbed onto his back and wrapped her arms around his neck. Tristan hoisted her up, opened his umbrella, and walked away.

Nicholas witnessed the entire situation.

Beside him, Alex had also seen everything. He sensed his employer's anger and didn't dare to make any sound.

“Alex, I have a question for you. Answer me honestly,” Nicholas ordered.

“Boss, just go ahead and ask me the question. I will answer accordingly,” Alex promised. He wasn't about to irritate Nicholas at this moment.

Nicholas asked, “If you are a woman, do you also like a man like Tristan, who is meticulous in every way?”

Tristan's status was, in fact, similar to his.

However, he had never taken care of any woman.

He couldn't believe Tristan was able to go that far just to take care of Sophie.

“Boss, I prefer someone like you,” Alex answered. I can't afford to anger Boss.

Nicholas gave him a frosty look.

“Alex, I doubt that. Can't you be honest with me?” he demanded. Is there even someone by my side who can be honest with me? Indeed, my life is a failure.

“Boss, I...” Alex wanted to say more but swallowed his words upon seeing his employer's expression. He plucked up his courage to add, “Boss, not every woman likes the same type of man.”

Some women preferred tender men; some preferred indifferent men; some preferred domineering men.

There was no standard in love, after all.

“Boss, I think you should give up on Sophie. She has angered you so much, so there is no point holding on. There are plenty of gorgeous women by your side. I can find any type of woman you want. I promise they will give you their undivided attention,” Alex promised.

All Sophie does is annoy Boss. I don't know what's so good about her.

“There's no need to concern yourself with my affairs,” Nicholas said curtly.

Sophie's special, so I can't give up on her. What's so good about other women who only know how to suck up to me? I hate women like that. All they want is my money and status. They are not genuine at all. Why can't I forget Sophie? Because she never sucks up to me and always scowls at me, that's why.

Tristan piggybacked Sophie to his vehicle. Seeing them, the driver got out of the car immediately to open the door for them.

After Sophie climbed into the car, Tristan closed his umbrella and went in after her.

“Come, let's go back.”

It was just a short walk, but Tristan's clothes were slightly wet. Sophie got a towel to pat him dry.

When we walked here, he focused on shielding me and didn't bother about himself. She let out a sigh.

Back in the mansion, Felix was still dealing with work matters at the branch office and wasn't back yet. The butler had already prepared lunch.

He was waiting at the door when they arrived. “Mr. Tristan, Ms. Tanner, you're back. Lunch is ready. Do you want to have lunch now?” he asked politely.

“Go wash your hands, and we will have lunch together. I believe you didn't eat much at the cafe,” Tristan uttered. The cafe sold dessert, but he knew Sophie didn't like sweet stuff.

“Mm!” Sophie went to wash her hands as told.

After she came out of the bathroom having washed her hands, Tristan pulled out a chair and told her to sit down.

“Do you have work this afternoon?” she asked. Tristan was usually pretty busy with work as he was the CEO of his company.

“Nothing much. Felix can deal with them. I will keep you company at home in the afternoon,” Tristan told her. He didn't want to neglect her because of work.

Sophie replied earnestly, “Tristan, there's no need to keep me company. I'm perfectly fine alone.”

“Why? Are you meeting a friend this afternoon? Let me come with you. I'd like to know more about your friend.”
