Chapter 171 Every Move Of Hers Is Sensuous
Clayton couldn’t help but laugh at Willow’s words. Does she really think I’m someone like Mason, whom she can manipulate with ease?
“Clayton, why are you looking at me like that? Don’t you believe me? Every word I say is true. I really like you a lot. In fact, I’m willing to sacrifice everything for you.” Confident in her beauty, Willow was sure her pitiful look would be able to melt any man’s heart.
Instead, Clayton tightened his grip on her.
“Is that so? Are you really sure that you like me and truly understand what kind of person I am?”
Clayton’s reaction wasn’t what she had expected, causing her to feel at a loss.
“Clayton, how can I prove myself to you?”
“The man with your sister. Do you know him? He’s someone that I detest.” Clayton released her chin and gently stroked her beautiful face.
“Do you mean Tanny? I hate his guts too. However, what are you expecting me to do? He’s Sophie’s boyfriend, and I’m powerless against him.” When the image of Tristan emerged in her mind, it was still enough to cause her heart to race.
So what if that’s the case? She’s still Sophie’s man and will never be mine. Furthermore, what’s the use of him being better looking than Clayton? As long as I can become Clayton’s girl, my rise to success will be assured.
“I’m not expecting you to do anything. Do I look like someone like that? You know how much I treasure the woman I love. It’s just that he’s an eyesore to me. Since you claim that your feelings for me are true, let’s see how you prove it.” No sooner had Clayton spoken than he ordered the driver to send Willow home.
Despite her unwillingness to leave, Willow was cognizant that her refusal would only end up infuriating him.
“Clayton, remember to call me.” Willow then got into the car.
Right after she did, Clayton took out a wet napkin and methodically wiped his hands with it.
Since daybreak was upon them, Sophie didn’t return to Wisteria Apartments. Instead, Tristan went with her to the hospital.
By the time they arrived, Josiah was already awake, but he was still breathing through the ventilator and unable to speak.
After Sophie sat by his side for a while, she had to leave the room when the nurse came in to give Josiah’s body a wipe.
Nonetheless, Tristan remained inside. After taking the towel from the nurse’s hand, he personally rubbed down Josiah and did so attentively.
Meanwhile, Morgan was moved by Tristan’s gesture.
It’s rare for young men nowadays to be willing to do the dirty work. Most of the time, they are just preoccupied with making money. Unlike them, Mr. Tristan is willing to go the extra mile for Ms. Tanner in spite of his distinguished position in society. Therefore, he must truly be enamored with her.
Josiah, too, could feel how caring Tristan was. Even his own son wasn’t bothered to wipe his body for him.
Tristan is really sincere.
“Old Mr. Tanner, don’t worry. Soph managed to catch a few hours of sleep after going back.”
Well aware of Josiah’s concern for Sophie, Tristan updated him on what they did over the last few hours while wiping the former down.
“Mr. Tristan, let me do it.” When Tristan was about to pour off the water, Morgan stopped him at once.
With no intention of insisting, Tristan rolled-down his sleeves.
“Ms. Sophie, you can go back in now, as Mr. Tristan is done cleaning Old Mr. Tanner. He really is a good catch. For him to be willing to do something like that for you, he must really like you a lot!” Morgan exclaimed.
Stumped for a response, Sophie walked by him and entered.
Inside, she saw Tristan and Josiah getting along very well with each other. At the same time, sweat was beading off Tristan’s forehead after wiping Josiah earlier.
