Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 745

“Tsk. Sophie, do you honestly see me as such a person? Is it really necessary?” If he were to succumb to love, it would be for an eternity.

“That's good.” After hearing a satisfactory response, Sophie did not speak further.

She began concentrating on the experiment, no longer paying heed to him.

Seeing how focused she was, Arius left Sophie alone and went to work on his own experiments.

That evening, Tristan came to pick her up and discovered she was leaving for Anglandur tomorrow.

Unfortunately, Lombard Group had an important meeting tomorrow, so Tristan could not accompany her.

However, now that Nicholas had his eyes on her, Tristan was even more worried about letting her go to Anglandur alone.

“Can't you go a little later? If you can push back the schedule, I will be able to go with you,” Tristan said.

The meeting tomorrow was really important, and Felix and the others couldn't go on his behalf. Hence, Tristan had to attend it himself.

“You don't have to come with me. I can handle it myself. Don't worry!” replied Sophie.

She was merely acting in an abundance of caution. Even if Nicholas did show up, she would be able to handle the situation.

“No, I don't want to take any risks right now! Even if there is only a one percent chance of it happening, I will not allow it.”

The last incident had traumatized him.

Sophie hooked her arms around his neck and kissed him. “Didn't I tell you? That kind of thing will not happen again.”

Tristan was thinking about how to come up with a perfect plan. “Tell Barney we'll leave in the afternoon, and we can go on our plane.”

Tristan had a private plane, and if it was only a bit later, there shouldn't be any problems with Anglandur.

“Tristan! If we're together, I'll only be a burden to you, and I don't want to see that happen! Do you get it?” replied Sophie.

They were two independent and separate people. No matter how close they were, they still needed to manage their own affairs.

Tristan leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

“You're not a burden! I just don't want to take any risks. I don't want to lose you.”

“You won't lose me. The last time was just an accident! Even if Nicholas appears before me, I will find my way out of there.”

The only reason things had turned out the way they did last time was because she was seriously injured.

Regardless, Tristan didn't want to compromise.

He was adamant about going with her.

Sophie planted a soft kiss on his Adam's apple, a gesture that always made Tristan tremble with desire. She loved his Adam's apple, finding it particularly sexy and irresistible.

Tristan had noticed it as well. Many times, Sophie would irresistibly kiss him on the same spot over and over again.

Embracing her tightly, he kissed her passionately for a long time before finally releasing her.

“I'll send a few more of my men to follow you. Do not refuse my offer. Only then will I be able to put my mind at ease,” Tristan said, his anxious tone belaying his deep concern for her safety.

That was already his biggest concession.

Sophie nodded in agreement. “Okay, fine. That works for me.”

After all, she had been followed everywhere for the past few days.

“You're a very stubborn girl. I really have no idea what to do with you,” Tristan teased, his voice tinged with amusement. Sophie had always been an opinionated woman.

Her lips curved into a playful smile. “It's only because you're obsessed with me!” she retorted, knowing full well that his unwavering love was the reason behind his unprincipled concessions.

“Yes, I'm obsessed with you, and I cannot lose you,” Tristan replied. Never in his mind did he expect to love someone so deeply.

Tristan and Sophie were completely immersed in their love, and their intense passion for each other drove them closer together.

Meanwhile, Nicholas was drinking his whiskey alone in a hotel room.

Recently, he had stopped drinking wine and switched to whiskey exclusively.

Only whiskey could alleviate the pain in his heart.

Richard sighed as he observed his boss' state.

Men trapped by love were truly pitiful creatures.

Men like Nicholas, who wielded supreme power and privilege, had already reached the pinnacle that others could only dream of from birth.

Yet, there was one woman in this world who remained forever out of his grasp. It was Sophie.

It was precisely because he couldn't have her that he couldn't forget her; such was the nature of men.

If they possessed something, they might not cherish it. However, they would spend a lifetime longing for it if they couldn't have it.

Men were really cheap.

“Boss, we need to go back now,” Richard urged. There was a problem in Anglandur, and they needed to return immediately.

“Very well. Let's go,” replied Nicholas.

It was mandatory for him to return to Anglandur.

“Boss, you don't have to be like this. I found out that Ms. Tanner will also be in Anglandur today. We'll have a distinct advantage with her there, won't we?” Richard said.

In Jipsdale, they had to be cautious, but in Anglandur, they held all the power.

They could do whatever they wanted without fear or repercussions.

“Is that so?” Nicholas asked, his spirits lifted at the news.

“That's great!” he exclaimed with a delighted laugh. Once he was in Anglandur, he could get closer to Sophie.

Meanwhile, Ysabelle and Sarah came to the airport to send Sophie off.

“Sophie, why don't I go with you? I don't have anything on my plate recently,” Ysabelle offered, knowing full well the danger posed by Nicholas.

Sophie shook her head. “It's not necessary. I have some matters to attend to, and it's not convenient to bring you along. You should stay here and enjoy your time with Felix!”

“We've been together for such a long time. We don't have to be glued to each other every day!” Ysabelle protested, her voice filled with petulance.

It was true that Felix and she had been very sweet recently, but Sophie was also very important!

“It's better that the two of you are glued to each other! That's the only way to show you're happy with each other. Sarah, it's almost time, so we're boarding soon. You two should go back now.”

At that moment, Butterfly arrived, her face hidden behind a pair of large sunglasses and a black backpack slung over her shoulders.

“Sophie, wait for me! I'm on the same flight as you,” she called out in a cheerful voice.

Sophie was instantly rendered speechless.

Oh, Butterfly...

“I'm coming with you!” declared Butterfly. It was best to have someone else around, just in case.

“Thanks,” replied Sophie. It was good that Butterfly would be with her. After all, no one knew what would happen in Anglandur. Butterfly was skilled in combat, and her hacking abilities were second only to Sophie's. With her assistance, they could ensure that everything went smoothly.

“Tsk. Is there any need for thanks between us?” Butterfly asked, her arm draped casually over Sophie's shoulder. Butterfly would do anything for Sophie.

Sarah and Ysabelle were relieved that Butterfly was tagging along.

After Sophie and her group passed through security, Ysabelle and Sarah left.

“Aunt Sarah, I think I should go to the training camp for a bit too. That way, I can become stronger! I'm too weak now!” Ysabelle declared, her voice filled with determination. She was tired of always needing others to protect her.
