Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 521

Chapter 521

Sophie asked Nicholas nonchalantly, “So, why are you here? Are you here to seek revenge on me?”

She did not want to waste her precious time on insignificant people like him.

Nicholas was unbothered by her coldness and explained, “I sought you out today because I've missed you. That's the only reason.”

He risked his life to meet her because he yearned for her. He would not have minded if he died because of his decision.

Sophie was rendered speechless.

She questioned how to talk sense into her admirer's head.

In the end, she threatened, “Stop following me, Nicholas, or I swear you'll die by my hand.”

It was a genuine warning.

Much to her chagrin, Nicholas smiled indulgently and replied, “Oh dear, but what else can I do? I'd be happy to die at your hands.”

Sophie scoffed coldly at his response.

Why must he throw himself wholeheartedly into this unrequited love? I will never accept his feelings.

He tried to garner her sympathy. “Don't be so cruel to me, okay, Sophie? I really, really like you.” Can't she feel my sincerity?

Sophie ignored him. She adjusted the grip on her textbooks and prepared to leave.

Alas, Nicholas refused to give up and followed her doggedly.

“Where are you going? Let me join you!”

He continued smiling brightly, totally unaffected by her frostiness.

Sophie warned, “That has absolutely nothing to do with you. Stop following me.”

It did little to deter Nicholas. Does she take me for a joke? I was threatened my whole life growing up!

Scrunching her brows in frustration, Sophie turned and leaped into the air, sending a kick flying his way.

Nicholas expected her attack and swiftly grabbed her leg. Before he could pat himself on the back for anticipating her actions, Sophie flipped in the air and kicked him with the other leg instead.

Her attacks were strong and fast, and even someone as skilled as Nicholas struggled to fend her off.

He staggered backward in the middle of their fight and shouted, “Stop it!”

He added, “I didn't come here to engage you in a fight, Sophie.”

Why is she hitting me without warning?

“I've warned you before. Don't come near me again, or I will really send you to your grave,” repeated Sophie.

She truly had no qualms about ending his life if he continued to pester her.

Sophie's determination cut Nicholas to the quick.

He painted a forlorn figure as he pleaded, “I flew over ten hours to come here. Do you really not want to see me?”

“Yes. I've never wanted to see you, so don't ever appear in my life again.”

Sophie did not believe in rejecting people tactfully, especially if she did not like the person in question. Moreover, she did not want to become friends with Nicholas.

After her vicious parting remark, Sophie turned and left.

She spent the afternoon reading in the library, gathering information for her medical dissertation.

It was an impossible feat for most medical students.

Preparations typically began in the fourth year of their studies, but Sophie already had a research topic in mind during her freshman year.

Ysabelle came to look for her in the library with two milkshakes in hand.

She spotted Sophie silently reading from afar and ended up admiring the latter's gorgeous profile for a long moment.

How can a woman be this beautiful? It's impossible to tear my eyes away from her even though she's just sitting silently.

Ysabelle stared at Sophie as though she was in a trance.

Suddenly, she recalled how she had offended her uncle a few days ago.

She promptly took her phone from her pocket and snapped a few photos of Sophie, which she sent to Tristan.

There! I think that's enough to redeem myself.

Tristan was in a meeting when Ysabelle's texts arrived. He initially had no plans to open the message when he saw who the sender was.

Still, he knew Ysabelle was with Sophie at that moment, and concern over Sophie's wellbeing eventually spurred him to look at his niece's texts.
