Chapter 509
He knew that it was not the best time to settle accounts with them, but he would definitely make them suffer and pay the price.
Just then, Arius also arrived.
When he saw Tristan was there too, he was taken aback, but soon, realization dawned on him.
He's Sophie's boyfriend, after all. It's understandable why he is here now.
"Where's Sophie?”
The most important thing now was to find Sophie, but they didn't know where she was.
“What should we do now, then?” Arius was still stunned.
“Let's split up and look for her.”
With that, Tristan went to see the restaurant's manager and ordered, “I want to reserve the entire restaurant. Ask all the diners to leave.”
It was a huge restaurant, so finding her right away was going to be tough.
He could only ask all the other diners to leave.
“Sir, I'm sorry. We have a lot of customers at noon, and everyone else is still having their meals. Asking them to leave abruptly now is going to leave a bad reputation for the restaurant.”
Tristan's aura was intimidating, but what the manager said was right.
“Since I'm booking the entire restaurant, I'll pay for all your losses today. I'm Tristan Lombard. Do you have any other questions?”
"Mr. Tristan?”
On top of his countenance, Tristan's name was enough to make the manager go along with his request.
“Is there any other problems?”
“Not at all. Don't worry. I'll get it done immediately.”
Just when Arius was about to start looking for Sophie, Tristan stopped him in his tracks.
“Check the surveillance footage, and see which room Sophie last went to.”
That was the most effective method.
"Okay.”
Arius immediately went to check the surveillance footage.
Meanwhile, the manager broadcasted that there was a problem in the restaurant, and everyone was asked to leave.
Hearing there was a problem with the restaurant, everyone else left.
“Mr. Tristan, who are you guys looking for? We can help!” offered the manager. With so many employees in the restaurant, they could aid in the search.
“Mr. Tristan, the surveillance cameras are broken.”
Someone had purposely tampered with the surveillance cameras, hence the problem now.
“D*mn it,” Tristan cursed under his breath.
Fortunately, he had asked all the other people to leave.
After much contemplation, he continued, “We should split up to find her, then.”
That was the only thing they could do at the moment.
Tristan felt a pang of hurt in his heart whenever he thought of Sophie being in an uncertain situation.
It's my fault for not protecting her well and letting her get hurt.
The staff opened all the doors, and everyone helped out.
However, Sophie was nowhere to be found.
There was only one room left, and the room was locked from the inside.
Without hesitation, Tristan kicked the door open.
The moment he stepped in, he smelled the metallic odor of blood, causing him to frown in worry.
She's injured. D*mn it! How dare those people hurt my woman!
When Tristan found Sophie drenched in a cold sweat on the balcony, his heart broke into million pieces.
He hurriedly went over and gently picked her up. “Don't be scared. I'm here. No one can hurt you anymore.”
As long as I'm here, I won't let anyone hurt you.
His voice snapped Sophie back to her senses, and she shook her head frantically.
“Am I hearing things again?” Sophie opened her eyes.
“No, it's really me. I'll take you back now. Arius is here too. You'll be fine.”
"Okay.”
It's really him! Even though the call didn't go through, he still came?
“There's no need for that. You'd better leave!” Arius said curtly.
How dare they trick Sophie. They have to pay for what they've done.
Arius handed a bowl of concoction to Tristan, and the latter quickly fed it to Sophie.
“Don't worry. With me here, nothing will go wrong,” comforted Arius as he patted Tristan on the shoulder. “As for you, leave now! We have nothing to say to you,” Arius continued, glaring at Mark.
Despite that, Mark stood there and refused to leave. “What happened today is because of me.”
“Are you done? Get out now.” Tristan was very blunt.
That was the nicest thing he could say to Mark at the very moment.
If he hadn't known Sophie cared a lot about Mark, the latter wouldn't even have had the chance to speak now.
So he needs to scram now.
“Mr. Tristan, this matter has nothing to do with my father,” Mark explained.
No matter what, Quinton was still his father, so Mark felt that he had to bear the responsibility.
“Mark, don't assume everyone else is a fool,” Tristan sneered.
None of the prominent people in Jipsdale were foolish.
Mark pleaded, “Mr. Tristan, you can deal with me however you want, but please let my family go.”
Tristan gave him another punch. “Do you think I have to be nice to you just because Sophie cares about you?”
Mark was a nobody in Tristan's eyes.
Arius pulled Mark to the side with one swift motion and suggested, “Mr. Tristan, you should take care of Sophie first.”
It was not a good time to resolve the matter.
Anyhow, Sophie was the one who could make the decision.
Mark's expression darkened as he was dragged out by Arius.
What he was most worried about at the moment was Sophie. There shouldn't be any problems with her health, right?
“Arius, is Sophie all right? Will it have any bad effects on her?” Mark asked in concern.
