Pursuing Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 787

CHAPTER 787 NOT ALLOW HIM TO PICK ON ME

Tristan glanced at the time, only to see that it was just past four o'clock in the afternoon. Hmm, there's still some time left before dinner.

“Nap for a while longer. I'll take a shower, and we'll go downstairs together.” Right then, he needed to take a cold shower.

Hearing that, Sophie was entirely perplexed.

Her gaze instinctively went to his groin before she finally nodded.

“Okay. Go and shower!” It went without saying that she knew how much he treasured her. To that end, he really wanted to leave them both pure for their wedding night.

At that moment, she seemingly started looking forward to their wedding night as well.

When Tristan had finished showering and stepped out of the bathroom, Sophie had to admit that she had truly stuck gold at the breathtaking sight of him.

His figure and looks are downright perfect! Furthermore, he's lethally sexy when fresh out of the shower!

Seeing that she was staring at him fixedly, Tristan inexorably chuckled. From the looks of it, this girlfriend of mine is very much satisfied with her boyfriend's figure.

“I swear I'll definitely satisfy you, Sophie.”

As soon as his sudden promise drifted into the air, Sophie's ears went red, and her face flamed.

Oh God, what suggestive remark is he spouting? When have I been dissatisfied with him? I've always been pleased with him, never once finding him lacking!

Tristan only had a towel wrapped around his waist then, so it was difficult not to fantasize about his figure.

While Sophie was blushing hotly, someone knocked on the door. From the sound of it, one could tell that it was undoubtedly Ysabelle.

“I'm going to get dressed. Tell her we'll be down in a while and to stop knocking.” Tristan stopped teasing her and went to the walk-in closet to change.

Thereafter, Sophie patted her face with both hands.

“How could you be so pathetic, Sophie? It was just a look, and you got all hot and bothered!”

Verily, he's a devilish man. Before I knew it, he managed to fluster me.

At the relentless knocking, she had no choice but to go over and open the door. Sure enough, Ysabelle was standing outside.

“What were you both doing in there, Sophie? Why did it take you so long to open the door? Ah, forget it. It's time to go downstairs. Dinner will be ready soon.”

Ysabelle came upstairs for no other reason than to inform the couple about dinner.

“Okay, got it. You go ahead. I'll wait for your Uncle Tristan.” Well, Tristan told me to wait for him.

“Whoa! How sweet! What were you two doing just now? Did you do something only fit for adults?”

That question rendered Sophie speechless.

“All right, go downstairs first. We'll be right on your heels.”

“Fine, then. I'll go ahead of you. Felix is still downstairs. I've got to keep an eye on things and help him out if my father were to pick on him.” I can't allow them to bully Felix when he's such a sedate person.

Mere moments after Ysabelle had left, Tristan came out after changing, wearing suit pants and a white shirt. The shirt was unbuttoned, baring his seductive chest.

Sophie promptly averted her eyes.

Damn, I can't continue admiring him anymore. Otherwise, I really won't be able to stop myself from pouncing on him. Everything was fine in the past, but after being together for a long time now, I keep getting these impulses to jump his bones. Gosh, he's really too tempting!

“What are you looking at? Come and help me button my shirt!” Tristan's voice abruptly rang out. In the next heartbeat, he had already reached her.

Lifting her fair and slender hands, Sophie helped him fasten his shirt, one button after another. At the sight of her looking incredibly adorable with her cheeks stained scarlet, Tristan hugged her in his arms in the next instant.

“How are you so cute, Sophie? How could there be such an adorable girl like you in this world?”

She makes me want to take a bite out of her!

“All right, stop teasing me. I can't quite take it anymore.” Sophie wanted to push him away, but he was hugging her too tightly that she could not break free at all.

“Okay. Let's go downstairs, then!”

Subsequently, the two of them went downstairs. When Felix saw that Tristan had taken a shower, he could not help looking at him enviously.

What did they do in broad daylight that he even had to take a shower? It simply makes my imagination run wild.

“What did you two do upstairs that you had to take a shower when it's so cold and early yet, Mr. Tristan?”

“Is being meddlesome contagious? I think you've taken in too much of Ysabelle's saliva. It has also turned you into a busybody now.”

Is he sick of living? Why is he asking so many questions? Does he not know that curiosity kills the cat?

Meanwhile, Arius shook his head with his eyes pinned on Sophie. “Haven't I told you this, Sophie? Although you've gotten engaged to him, you're a girl and must learn to protect yourself, okay?”

“Whoa! How sweet! What were you two doing just now? Did you do something only fit for adults?”

That way, if you were to regret it one day, you'd still have a way out!

Sophie said nothing.

Thus, Arius continued, “I'm only saying this for your good. Tristan—”

Immediately, Tristan shot him a glare.

“It seems that you've got a problem with me, Professor Gullifer? Well? Shall we go out for a duel?”

Is he trying to talk my woman into abandoning me? How could there be someone like him in this world? The mere sight of him irritates me!

Arius instantly swung his gaze to Sophie. “Did you see that, Sophie? I've got reason to suspect that this man has a tendency for violence. Who knows whether he'd get physical with you after marriage?”

Upon hearing that, Tristan was gripped by the urge to teach the man a hard lesson. Argh! Look what he's saying!

“Come, Arius! Let's go out for a duel.” There was still some time before dinner, so it would not matter if they were to go out for a face-off then.

At once, Arius hid behind Sophie.

“Considering our close relationship, Sophie, you won't allow him to pick on me, right? You've got to protect me.” Hiding behind her, he regarded Tristan smugly.

With her there, he was not the least bit afraid of the man before him.

Sophie fell silent, dumbstruck.

Can these two men in their thirties stop acting so childish?

Following that, Tristan pulled Sophie into his arms and hugged her. She's my woman. How could she be some other man's shield?

“All right. I won't bother taking offense with an imbecile.” Otherwise, I'd also appear like one.

That left Arius without a retort.

Am I being disdained now? What right does he have to look down on me? I'm perfectly fine, aren't I?

“Okay, stop messing around. Come and eat,” Sarah swiftly urged when she came out and saw the three of them at a stalemate.

“I'll do as you say and forgive him this once, Sarah.” Arius made up an excuse to save himself from embarrassment.

He had no other choice since he was alone then. If he did not do so, he would still be the one on the losing end.

Seeing that he had gone over to the dining table, the others followed suit and took their seats. Tristan took Sophie's hand.

I don't want to pick on Arius either, but I can't resist doing so when he always makes for easy prey. I can't help it.

“Be a bit more accommodating to Arius. He's really pitiful all alone,” Sophie could not help chiding, taking up the rear with Tristan.
