Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 424

Chapter 424

“You're old! You must admit it!” Ysabelle replied. Felix was thirty, while she was only nineteen. Compared to her, he was indeed old.

Felix was dumbfounded by those words.

Meanwhile, Charles, who was gloating over his discomfiture, could not help but laugh. “Felix, you are old. There's no escaping reality; you have to accept it!”

“Have you forgotten about the fact that we're the same age? If I'm old, it applies to you as well!” Felix grumbled. Is he serious? How dare he laugh at me?

Upon hearing that, Charles fell silent.

Fine! He's no fun.

When the group left Nocturnal, they bumped into Clayton and Willow again. Why do they keep showing up in front of us?

Needless to say, all six of them ignored Clayton and Willow as if they were invisible.

Initially, Clayton wanted to greet them, but he could only remain silent upon seeing their reactions.

If I greet them now, they'll surely disregard me. When that happens, we'll still be the ones who are humiliated.

Since everyone in the group drank alcohol that night, they got drivers to send them back. Just then, Tristan and Sophie entered their car first.

Immediately, Ysabelle wanted to follow them into the vehicle, but Felix grabbed her hand.

“Come with me, okay? You can't keep being the third wheel. Mr. Tristan isn't going to like it,” he said.

Ysabelle was displeased by his remark. He and I are both third wheels!

“Felix, that's Uncle Tristan we're talking about. He won't do anything to me!” As soon as those words fell from her lips, Tristan's car drove off. Her uncle did not bother to wait for her.

Ysabelle was on the verge of crying when she saw that. How could Uncle Tristan do this to me? That's mean! He went overboard!

“Do you see that? He didn't even hesitate!” Felix was thrilled. Mr. Tristan is giving me a chance!

Ysabelle harrumphed in response.

Who cares about that? Next time, I have to make Uncle Tristan look bad in front of Sophie. I must show him I'm not someone he wants to mess with.

Felix opened the car door for her and said, “All right. I'll give you a ride since you seem so pitiful!”

I must be the kindest man alive, considering that I can't bear to watch her suffer!

His words left Ysabelle speechless.

Fine! In that case, I'll just accept his offer.

Once Ysabelle got into the car, Felix followed her, and they left immediately after that.

With that, Charles and Sean were left standing at the roadside on their own. At the sight of those four leaving in pairs, Charles sighed and lamented, “Seeing that they've found partners, it makes me want to be in a relationship as well!”

At his age, it was about time for him to date someone.

“What? It's best if you don't hurt young women,” Sean uttered. It's impossible for him to give up on the ladies!

Charles was left speechless for a moment before he said, “Sean, as I've said before, there's nothing I can do about the fact that ladies swoon over me. There's only one of me. I don't want them to be heartbroken.”

“Nonsense!” Sean was bereft of speech upon hearing Charles' reasoning. “Anyway, you ought to be careful! Don't die on a woman's bed one day.”

Charles was caught off guard by his words.

That's a cruel thing to say, no? No matter what, we're still close like brothers. How could he say such a thing?

Sean ignored him after that.

When the driver got out of the car to open the car door for him, Sean hopped in straightaway. “It's just a word of caution. You can choose to ignore it.”

With that, he told the driver to start driving.

Charles could not help but curse under his breath.

They are all prejudiced against me! What else should I do in the prime of my life if not date someone? I can't possibly start dating only when I'm older and the ladies like me for my money.

Although Ysabelle said she wanted to wait for the release of their scores with Sophie, she fell asleep on the couch shortly after arriving at Wisteria Apartments.

“Felix, please carry Ysabelle upstairs and lay her on the bed,” Sophie said in resignation. She was the one fussing about checking our scores together, yet she ended up falling asleep first.

Meanwhile, Felix was heartbroken when he saw the state Ysabelle was in. “Sophie, Ysabelle has been pampered throughout her life, so please cut her some slack in her training. Look at how tired she is.”

Even though he would support Ysabelle regardless of the choices she made, his heart still ached when he saw how drained she was.

“If she wants to debut as an artiste, she must train. It's necessary. In fact, it'll only get tougher from now on,” Sophie replied.

Ysabelle has no choice but to train. Otherwise, how is she going to achieve success if she doesn't work hard?

Words failed Felix. Can't she just tell a white lie?

“Enough of that. Ysabelle chose to undergo these things willingly. Do you think your objections can change anything? If you can't stand it, you can dissuade her from entering the entertainment industry.” Tristan was fed up with Felix's attitude.

Hearing that, Felix went completely speechless.

I didn't even say anything! Must Mr. Tristan be so protective of Sophie?

“I'll carry her upstairs, then,” Felix uttered. They've tired her out.

He laid Ysabelle on the bed but did not go back downstairs even after a long time. Instead, he stayed by the side of the bed and watched her with an affectionate gaze.

When will she understand my feelings for her? Jeez, there's nothing I can do with her. She could've enjoyed an easy life as the daughter of a prominent family, yet she chose to enter the entertainment industry. Must she tire herself out like this?

Only Tristan and Sophie were left sitting on the couch. The young lady was leaning against the cushion because she was tired from the constant rehearsal in the past few days.

“Are you still going to wait for your score?” Tristan asked.

If she wanted to wait for it, he could accompany her.

Sophie shook her head in response.

“No. I'll just check it tomorrow. I'm so sleepy!” All she wanted at that moment was sleep. As for her score, she had zero interest in finding out about it.

“Sure! Let's go take a bath before going to bed!” Tristan said.

He then rose to his feet and pulled her up from the couch.

“Can you still walk?” he inquired.

Sophie immediately nodded. Of course, I can! Is he kidding me? I can't possibly let him carry me up the stairs!

However, Tristan suddenly scooped her up in his arms the next second.

“Since you're so tired, I'll carry you upstairs!” he offered.

That baffled Sophie.

I didn't even say I was tired!

“Actually, I'm fine!” she exclaimed.

“You're not fine. My heart aches when I see how tired you are,” Tristan replied. His woman was indeed very capable, which was probably why she was so tired.

Sophie felt rather blissful when she heard his words.

Hence, she no longer stopped him from carrying her up the stairs. Well, this isn't too bad.

It was not until they arrived in her room that he put her down and headed to the bathroom to run a bath for her.

All of a sudden, Sophie struggled to find the words to describe the man before her eyes.

How does he manage to attend to all of my needs? What did I do to deserve such a man? He treats me so well. If he ever leaves me, I'm going to be very sad.

Tristan came out after running a bath and caught her spacing out on the bed. He then walked up to her and sat next to her.

“What's on your mind?” he asked.

“I'm thinking about our future!” That was the first time she had ever looked forward to the future. I think we'll surely have a blissful life together!
