Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 766

Chapter 766 Alone Time

He seems to be in a good mood today. But isn't Lombard Group's annual party tonight?

“Don't worry. It's not like I'm going to sell you off. Just go and get changed,” Tristan said with a chuckle.

“All right,” Sophie replied.

He carried her to the bed, sat her down there, then went to the walk-in closet to get her outfit. It was clear that he had already picked what she was to wear that day.

Tristan has a good eye, and I trust his taste in picking an outfit for me. However, why has he already taken the time to pick what I'll wear? What on earth has he got planned? Despite her confusion, she did not ask any questions. She merely looked at the clothes he laid out on the bed and said, “You can go out now. How am I going to get changed if you don't leave?”

“I'll just turn around.” With that, he turned so that he faced away from her but showed no intention of leaving.

Hence, she had no choice but to gather the clothes in her arms and go to the walk-in closet. The closet was spacious enough for her to get dressed inside.

Tristan had a hat and scarf in his hands by the time she had changed. When he saw her walk out, he immediately helped her put them on.

“Where are we going?” Sophie asked, noting that they were in matching couple outfits. For some reason, he had been very interested in matching outfits recently.

“We're going to Horington.”

His reply left her dumbstruck.

“Isn't your company having its annual party tonight? Why are we going to Horington?” she inquired. There's nothing we need to do in Horington, and won't we be in a hurry to rush back for the annual party if we head there now?

“It's fine. We'll just come back tonight,” Tristan responded. The party takes place every year, so even if we don't make it back in time, it doesn't matter. Besides, there are other members of senior management in the company. It's not like I'm the only one. They can get on without me, can't they?

“All right. As long as it makes you happy.” Since she was not busy with anything recently, she decided to accompany him to do anything and go anywhere he wished.

When Ysabelle called Sophie, the couple was already at the airport and about to board their flight.

“What? The two of you are flying to Horington? Whatever for?” Ysabelle was puzzled. It's nearly Christmas, and there's nothing all that interesting in Horington, so why are they going there?

“I don't have a clue. Your uncle wants to go. Since it's something he wants to do, naturally, I'll go with him. I didn't ask much.”

“Can I come along? The concert is over, and I've nothing else to do now, so I'll just go and join you guys!”

Before Sophie could respond, Tristan took the phone from her. “Ysabelle Lombard, can you stop being a third wheel all the time and give us some space?”

After saying that, he ended the call.

Ysabelle suddenly felt lonely and unwanted as she listened to the dial tone. Am I just a third wheel? I'm his beloved niece, aren't I? How could he shun me like that? Would they have been able to get together so easily if it hadn't been for me? I let the fact that he didn't thank me slide, but now he's shutting me out. That's too much!

Just then, Felix walked in. His heart ached when he saw her looking so miserable.
