Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169 Irresistible

“In that case, I’ll go back and shower. Call me if there are any problems.” She, too, wanted to shower at home. Regardless of how luxurious the VIP ward was, she didn’t like bathing there.

“All right, go on ahead,” Morgan replied respectfully.

After Tristan returned to Wisteria Apartments with Sophie, he, too, took a bath when Sophie went to take a shower.

Despite spending the last few days in the hospital, he only managed a single quick bath. After all, the conditions at the hospital were considered terrible for someone like him.

When he was done showering, he heated up a glass of milk for Sophie and estimated the time she needed before knocking on her door.

Upon hearing the knock, Sophie opened the door, wrapped only in a towel with her hair still dripping wet.

The wet look and perky bosoms that greeted him felt like a siren song calling out to him.

Tristan, unable to help himself, gulped before feeling embarrassed by his own reaction.

“Have a glass of milk before you sleep. We’ll be going to the hospital again tomorrow.”

When Sophie received the glass from him, she brushed against his warm fingers, causing her to flinch in reflex.

Under such circumstances, it was all too easy for both of them to feel awkward.

“After a grueling few days, you can finally get some proper rest.” Sophie’s gentle voice continued to claw at his heart.

Tristan nodded. “Mmm-hmm. I’ll be next door. Call me if you need anything.”

With that, he came out of her room reluctantly.

Sophie’s gaze trailed his silhouette until he returned to his room before drinking the warm milk he had prepared.

After lying in bed, Sophie slept especially well, probably due to the effects of the milk.

By the time she awoke, it was already three in the morning.

Hunger was what had woken her up. With her stomach growling, she couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

In the end, she decided to get out of bed. The moment she opened the door, Tristan heard her movements, causing him to come out too.

“What is it? Where are you going in the middle of the night?” he asked anxiously, worried that something might have happened to Josiah.

Sophie’s heart was warmed by the concerned look on his face.

“It’s nothing. I’m just feeling hungry, as I had barely eaten during the day.”

However, she wasn’t sure if there were still any food delivery services available at night.

“I plan to order some food. Do you want anything?”

I don’t remember him having eaten much too. Given that he’s one point eight meters tall, shouldn’t he be hungrier than I am?

“Oh, in that case, let’s have supper together.”

After going downstairs and taking their seats in the living room, Sophie opened a food delivery app.

Despite browsing through it for a long time, she couldn’t come to a decision.

“Come on. Let’s eat out instead.”

Sophie looked in his direction.

“Who goes out for supper at this ungodly hour?” Isn’t it too late for that?

“You and me!” Why not? As long as we fancy it, who’s to say that we can’t?

Sophie nodded.

“You’re right.”

“Wait for me. I’ll go get changed.” Regardless of how brazen she was, there was no way she was going out in her pajamas.

As Tristan waited in the living room for her, a smile broke out on his face.

Who knew that this is all it takes to be happy? Even though he was just waiting for her to go out for supper, a sense of bliss had descended upon him.

As long as they were together, he would be easily contented regardless of what they did.
