Chapter 204 Blushing
“Mhm, I know. I’ll go back now,” Tristan assured.
“Be careful on the road.” It was then Sophie hung up the call. It was getting pretty late. The more she talked to him, the later he would return to his home, which was why she stopped.
After hanging up the call, she realized Josiah really was still waiting in the living room for her.
“Who were you talking to earlier? Was it Tanny? Why don’t you invite him in since he’s already here? It’s not like we don’t have enough rooms here. It’s dangerous for him to go back in this weather!” the old man suggested.
“Why are you so naughty, Grandpa? Didn’t I ask you to stay in the hospital for a couple more days?” As Sophie spoke, her expression darkened. She didn’t forget why she was there.
He pretended as though he didn’t hear anything and turned to the butler nearby. “Isn’t Tanny a good kid?”
The butler could only nod.
It wasn’t unexpected that the old man refused to stay in the hospital for that long.
“It’s going to be the shareholders’ meeting in a few days, Soph. Are you confident?” Another reason Josiah didn’t sleep was because of that.
He found it hard to sleep soundly before that matter concluded.
No matter what happened, that was his sweat and blood. Thus, there was no way he could just ignore it.
“You don’t believe me, Grandpa? Since you already handed Tanner Group to me, you should let it go already. I won’t disappoint you,” Sophie assured. Is this why he didn’t want to stay in the hospital?
“Mhm.” There wasn’t much for him to say.
“All right, it’s getting late. You should go and sleep now. If you don’t, I won’t care about the company anymore.”
“I know you won’t do that, Soph.” Despite his words, he still went to sleep.
It wasn’t until Sophie accompanied him to the bed and covered him with a blanket that she stepped out of his room.
Morgan left the room with her.
“It’s getting very late, Ms. Sophie. You should rest early!” he said.
“Thank you for your hard work in this period of time, Morgan. You should rest early too!”
After that, she returned to her own room. It had been a while since the last time she lived there for a couple of days.
The moment Sophie arrived in her room, her phone rang.
At that point, she really wasn’t sure what to say. All she wanted was to rest early.
Before she could hang up, she heard Tristan say, “I miss you.”
Despite the fact that it hadn’t been long since they parted ways, it still made her heart race when she heard that.
Thoughts crossed her mind as she glanced at him. What’s wrong with him? He’s been teasing me often lately! Moreover, it has only been an hour since we left each other.
“It’s getting very late, Mr. Tristan. I’m going to sleep now,” Sophie uttered before ending the video call.
Sitting on the couch, Tristan couldn’t help but chuckle when he saw how she acted. Why is she so adorable? I bet she’s feeling shy! I didn’t even say much! It was just an “I miss you!”
As for her, she was lying in bed, calming down. After a while, she patted her cheeks. “What’s wrong with you, Sophie? He didn’t really say anything special! Why are you even blushing?”
All she could think of at that moment was Tristan’s face.
