Chapter 369
Sophie: He doesn't need my protection. I'm the one who can't stop fretting about him.
Liking someone meant not wanting to see them hurt.
She wouldn't be able to forgive herself if Tristan was injured because of her.
That was followed by a reply: All right. Let us handle this matter. The other members in the chat were confident they could prevent Tristan from any harm.
Sophie then logged off, which was why she didn't see their reaction after they received Tristan's info.
Immediately after that, someone wrote: D*mn. Did you guys see who Phantom's lover is? I'm shaking right now. It's Mr. Tristan!
They were in a state of utter disbelief.
Someone responded: What the h*ll? Does he really need our protection? Actually, does anyone even dare to hurt him?
Another person replied: That's because you didn't see who's trying to hurt him, which is Nicholas Sable! Why are the people around Phantom all so extraordinary?
After a brief moment, someone texted: All right, since Phantom asked us for help, let's just do our best. Their bond with her was so deep that they were willing to give their lives for her.
Another person agreed: For sure. As long as Phantom needs something done, I won't say no to it.
After Sophie left the bathroom, she saw dinner had already been prepared.
Micah was worried she wouldn't enjoy the local food, so all the dishes were from her country.
“Give this a try, Ms. Tanner. If you dislike it, I'll ask the others to change it right away.’’ It was the first time he saw Tristan bring a woman to the mansion. The fact that she would very likely one day be the lady of the house prompted him to pay extra attention to making her happy.
“Thank you. This is well enough. I'm not picky,” Sophie replied tenderly.
Her demeanor satisfied Micah greatly. She's not overly humble or even a little arrogant. As expected of Mr. Tristan, he really does have a good eye. Even his girlfriend is excellent.
“You may leave now, Micah,” Tristan ordered.
“Very well, Mr. Tristan.” Before the butler left, he glanced at Felix. What is Mr. Northley doing here? Why does he have to join the couple's meal? He should've gone to the hotel!
He had to keep those words to himself because he was a professional butler. Still, he shot a subtle begrudging glance at Felix.
When Felix caught that, he wondered if he had done something reprehensible. I'm only here for a meal! Why is he looking at me like that? Do I not even have the right to eat? Are single people really that unwelcoming?
“Let's eat!” Tristan noticed Felix's intention to say something, but he didn't ask what was on the latter's mind because he really didn't want to listen to him talk at the moment.
In the end, Felix still blurted, “Am I interrupting you two, Mr. Tristan? It's not like either of you can do anything about it right now, so my presence here doesn't count as a disturbance!”
Tristan resisted the urge to admonish him. Why must he be so blunt?
“It's me who's disturbing you two, Mr. Northley. I'm sorry,” Sophie apologized profusely.
After all, she was the one who insisted on following them on their business trip.
