Anything For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 860

Chapter 860 Do Not Beg Me For Help

“Go sleep in your room! Because of you, Ysabelle has gotten the wrong idea...” Sophie grumbled. Argh! Ysabelle must've thought there was some hanky-panky going on between us!

“What's there to be afraid of?” Tristan replied. “You're now my fiancée, so why should anyone care what we get up to around here? It's none of their business.”

Oh, come on. Do I need everyone else's permission to be in a relationship?

“A while more. Let's cuddle a while more, and I'll leave,” he added, a far cry from his usual authoritative self.

Upon seeing how beguiling the man was, Sophie gave in and took the initiative to hug him.

Fine... I can never reject him when he plays dirty, anyway. In fact, I don't think I can ever bring myself to turn him down.

Meanwhile, Ysabelle had rushed out with her phone in hand, only to be stopped by Sarah before she could enter her room.

“Why are you running? What on earth could be chasing you at home?”

“Aunt Sarah, I...” Ysabelle mumbled, her face red with embarrassment.

Then again, how could she not be when she had walked in on another couple doing the deed? Even though she and Felix were also dating, the latter never went beyond hugging and kissing her.

Naturally, she'd be mortified to witness such an intimate scene!

“What's the matter with you? Are you not feeling well? Do you want to see the doctor?” Sarah asked worriedly when she saw the flush in Ysabelle's cheeks.

For a moment, the young woman touched her face and bit her lower lip as she lapsed into silence. “I'm all right, Aunt Sarah.”

Sarah, however, remained doubtful.

“What's wrong with you, then?”

“I-I'm done for, Aunt Sarah. If Uncle Tristan threatens to kill me tomorrow, will you please protect me?”

“Why? What happened?”

“Earlier, I barged into Sophie's room without knocking on the door. Then...” Ysabelle muttered before her voice trailed off.

“Oh, my goodness! Shouldn't you be old enough to know basic etiquette? You must always remember to knock before entering anyone's room!”

Well, it's perfectly normal and understandable for couples to be intimate. Besides, hasn't Dad been longing for grandchildren? I can't believe Ysabelle ruined that moment for Tristan and Sophie!

Ysabelle nodded. “Yes. I know.”

Argh! Why am I being blamed? I was already feeling down in the dumps today and only returned to Sophie's room to grab my phone. How did I know I'd catch them in such a compromising situation? I didn't do it on purpose!

“All right. Don't worry too much,” Sarah reassured. “It's getting late. Go to bed soon. You have an upcoming album release, don't you? You ought to be in good shape for that.”

After all, looks were important in the music industry, so a singer like Ysabelle had to have ample rest.

“Okay,” the young woman mumbled before darting into her room with her phone.

Sarah was also about to retire for the night when her phone suddenly rang. Alas, she couldn't help but frown as soon as she realized who the caller was.

What on earth is Juan up to? I was in love with him before, but he always treated me indifferently. However, now that I've given up on him, he won't stop pestering me! What's the point of this?

Sarah instantly declined the call, but Juan soon called again, clearly refusing to give up.

Annoyed, Sarah texted: Juan, what do you want? Haven't I already said that things aren't going to work out between us?

Juan: Why not, though? I wasn't aware of my feelings for you in the past, but now I know. Don't be afraid, Sarah. Besides, you don't have to do anything this time. I'll go to you.

Sarah: Is this fun for you, Juan? You ignored me when I was so madly in love with you, but now that I've chosen to walk away, you refuse to let me go. Do you truly like me, or are you just being resentful?
