“Why are you in such a rush? I’ve never heard you say anything about this!” Sophie was slightly taken aback by the sudden turn of events.
“Something happened in Anglandur, and I must return to settle it.” The truth was, Nicholas did not want to stay there for a second longer.
“Why don’t you go back first? I want to stay here a little longer,” said the woman.
“Sophie, you and I are engaged. The trouble in Anglandur is much more serious than I expected. Why don’t you come back with me and help me out?”
There was no way Nicholas would allow her to stay behind all by herself.
At his insistence, Sophie let out a sigh and stopped rejecting him. “Is that so? All right, then.”
Nicholas heaved a sigh of relief when he heard her answer. In the next second, his phone rang, and he hurried outside to accept the call.
After his call, he noticed that Padma was leaving, and Richard was trailing behind her to send her off.
“There’s no need to thank me. You’re fast at transferring money. I like it,” said Padma.
No one had ever suspected Padma’s abilities, not even herself.
“Okay. Be careful on your way home.”
Nicholas maintained a similar demeanor with other women. He did not display excessive interest when engaging with them, with the only exception being Sophie..
Only in Sophie’s presence did Nicholas reveal his longing, desiring her undivided attention.
“Richard, send Ms. Padma to the airport.”
“Understood.”
Richard and Padma departed, leaving Nicholas alone. As he hung up the call, a mischievous smirk played across his lips. Everything is going according to plan, but why do I still feel a lingering sense of uneaset
They had to depart as soon as possible. Only then would Nicholas find peace of mind. If they lingered any longer, he couldn’t help but worry about the impending consequences.
Upon his return, Richard also inquired about Nicholas’ plan.
They had been away for an extended period this time, and it was time to head back. “Boss, I have already made arrangements for our return,” Richard informed.
“Very well. Make sure everything’s meticulously handled. I want to avoid any unforeseen complications before our departure,” stated Nicholas. Having recently gotten everything he ever wanted, he was determined to safeguard his newfound contentment from any potential disruptions.
“Don’t worry, Boss, I will see to it that everything is in order.” Naturally, Richard knew how much Nicholas

That evening, Nicholas went to look for Sophie, who was immersed in her artwork, her concentration unbroken. As he laid eyes on her, a surge of emotion coursed through him, causing his heart to skip a beat.
She was a woman of many facets, and Nicholas found himself drawn to every single one of them. Sophie sensed his presence, but she chose to finish her painting before finally turning to face him. “What’s wrong? Is there anything I can help you with?”
“No, I don’t need anything. I just want to sit here quietly and watch you. It would be wonderful if we could stay like this forever,” Nicholas expressed, his desires simple and heartfelt, wanting nothing more than to remain by her side.
When confronted with Nicholas’s overwhelming affection, Sophie found herself at a loss for words, She couldn’t quite grasp how to respond to his deep infatuation.
That was how she was, being a naturally reserved person. Sophie’s quiet demeanor was something Nicholas had grown accustomed to.
Meanwhile, Tristan found himself alone in the mansion. In the past, he had never given much thought to being in solitude. However, now that Sophie was no longer there, he couldn’t help but feel that the mansion seemed too vast and empty.
He did not like this feeling at all.
Sean went to the mansion to find Tristan, and the two of them ended up sharing a drink.
“Sophie will return soon! There’s no need for you to be like this!” Sean reassured Tristan, hoping to ease his friend’s worries. There’s really no need for you to act like this.
“I know.”
Knowing that she would return soon was comforting, but Tristan couldn’t help but long for Sophie. It had only been three days since they last saw each other, yet he missed her intensely.
