Chapter 75 Too Brutal
“No.” Tristan said nothing at all.
I’m no one to her, so what right do I have to ask so much of her? Whoever she wants to be with is definitely her freedom!
Truth be told, he actually understood all that. However, at the thought that Sophie might not belong to him, he would grow terribly frustrated, even if that possibility was negligible.
“Oh, okay.”
In the courtyard outside, a group of teenage girls was dancing in classical attire.
Every single move exuded grace.
They snagged Sophie’s attention, so she didn’t bother trying to speculate what exactly was wrong with Tristan.
Sigh!
At that, Tristan couldn’t help sighing.
There’s still a long way to go before I win her over. Never had I imagined that such a day would come for me!
When the dance ended, a young maiden in white and wearing a veil came out to play the harp.
Right then, Blossom came with a few other servers and served the food.
“Enjoy the food, Mr. Tristan, Ms. Tanner. Just call me if you need anything else.”
“Sure!”
Tristan picked up the bottle of sherry on the table.
“This bottle is really unique!”
The bottle was similar to those in historical movies on television, but it was even more exquisite.
“Yeah.”
Tristan opened the bottle of sherry and poured some for Sophie as well.
“Try some. The most famous item here in Blossom Garden is its sherry.”
“Are you trying to get me drunk, Mr. Tristan? What do you want to do?”
Sophie arched an eyebrow, her eyes stunning beyond words.
“I want to do everything, but I can’t do anything.”
She was young, so he wouldn’t do anything to her no matter how fevered he was.
“I was just joking.”
Sophie liked that place a lot. She picked up the crystal glass and took a sip.
Sure enough, the taste was superb. It was incredibly mellow, a different taste compared to red wine.
In a single gulp, she downed the sherry in the crystal glass.
“Can I have more?”
Without commenting, Tristan poured her some more sherry.
“Sophie, it’s not appropriate for a girl to drink in front of men. You must learn to protect yourself. In the future, don’t drink with other men.”
“Okay. I’ll drink with you in the future!” Sophie deliberately declared with a smile.
Tristan didn’t mind though he was aware that she was intentionally teasing him.
“Don’t just drink. The food at Blossom Garden is also top-notch.”
He took some vegetables for her.
“Go ahead and eat. You don’t need to worry about me.” Actually, Sophie wasn’t all that hungry. But she really liked the sherry.
I wonder if Ms. Blossom will be willing to sell me a few bottles.
“Mr. Tristan, how’s your relationship with Ms. Blossom?”
“What relationship?” Tristan frowned, for he didn’t want her to misunderstand.
However, it turned out that he was the one who misinterpreted her remark.
“It’s just that I’m pretty fond of the sherry here. Please have Ms. Blossom sell me a few bottles.”
At once, Tristan was stumped.
“Blossom Garden doesn’t sell its sherry. Whoever wants to drink it can only come here.”
Even if the president himself came, the same principle applied.
“Even you can’t get it, huh?” Disappointment showed on Sophie’s face.
At the sight of her crestfallen expression, distress inundated Tristan.
“It’s okay. I’m in Jipsdale now anyway, so I can come whenever I like!”
Subsequently, Sophie poured herself another glass of sherry.
“What an alcoholic!”
Tristan didn’t expect her alcohol tolerance to be so high that she seemed fine even after drinking a few glasses.
“Don’t drink so much. It kicks in very strongly. Once, Felix got drunk at Blossom Garden.”
“Okay.”
Having drunk quite a bit, Sophie went over to the window to watch the performance outside.
Unexpectedly, she saw Juan with Letitia.
This time, it was only the two of them.
