Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 136

Chapter 136 Irresistible Passion

“Why aren’t you going in?” Sophie approached him and asked softly.

“You’re finally home.” The one who was authoritative, high, and mighty seemed so pitiful at that instant.

Tristan stretched out his right arm and pulled her into his embrace. He hugged her by the waist with another arm and rested his forehead on hers.

Sophie’s heart skipped a beat upon his sudden action.

How long has he been standing here? Why are his body and breath so cold?

“Mr. Tristan⁠—”

As soon as her words fell, the man moved and pinned her to the wall. Then, he began to kiss her.

His kiss was swift and somewhat aggressive, to the extent that Sophie felt a stinging pain on her lips. Gradually, he slowed things down and kissed her gently.

Then, he stopped and hugged her quietly.

If only she was older… He had to fight the desire from within to dismiss the thought of launching a series of amorous advances toward her.

He wanted to let her know how much he cared for her so badly.

“Shall we go in now? It’s cold out here.” The winter in Jipsdale was freezing cold even though it was just the beginning of the season.

He touched her hands and felt the cold. Immediately, he covered both her palms with his and strode toward the apartment.

Upon scanning his thumbprint, the door unlocked itself, and the heater was also automatically switched on.

Sophie was a bit surprised that he was so quick to act and seemed very familiar with it.

“What’s wrong? Still feeling cold?” Tristan frowned as he seated her on his lap.

The ambiguous position made Sophie blush.

“Mr. Tristan, I—”

Without paying heed to what she was saying, he kept her locked in his arms as if she was his most treasured prize.

“Where were you?”

I bet the main reason why he’s not his usual self is because I turned him down for a meal and met Arius instead.

“Mr. Tristan, something urgent came up, and I had to meet an important person today. I promise to buy you a meal another day,” she tried to pacify him.

“An important person? Is the person more important than me?” He was very particular about it.

Sophie was rendered speechless.

When Tristan heard that she was seen with a man at Cloud Nine Hotel, he was blazing with rage.

It was not because he did not trust her, but he lacked confidence in himself.

He felt like he was in no position to question her. Hence, at that moment, he wanted to destroy every single man on earth just to be with her forever.

However, when he saw her walking out of the elevator after having waited outside the apartment for three long hours, his pent-up anger just faded away within seconds.

“Quite important.” I wouldn’t have been here if it was not for Arius—the man I met when I first came to Horington five years ago.

Hearing her stating so, Tristan felt as though his heart was instantly torn apart, and the pain was unbearable.

Sophie felt a little down when she noticed the disappointed look on his face.

What’s going on?

“Mr. Tristan, I’ll definitely treat you to a big meal one day. Just the two of us.” Can he stop staring at me like that?

He pressed a kiss to her forehead.

Do I really care about getting a free meal? What has got into her head to arrive at this conclusion?

At first, Sophie wanted to call Josiah as soon as she arrived home. Now that Tristan was present, she could not make the phone call anymore.

I guess I’ll have to go pick Grandpa up personally from the Tanner residence tomorrow.
