Willow didn't deserve anyone's concern.
She only had herself to blame for the quagmire that she was in.
“Yeah. I think something's off with my grandpa!” Sophie said.
“Didn't you and Arius operate on him last time? There shouldn't be any problem.”
“Yes. The surgery was very successful. But although the surgery could fix his illness, it was useless against his aging organs.”
She knew it better than anyone else. However, it was one thing to know, but another thing to let go.
The suite in the hot spring resort was exclusively reserved for Sophie and Tristan.
“Go on and enjoy yourself so that you can have a good night's sleep. You've been working really hard recently. You should relax tonight,” Tristan said.
“Aren't you going to join me?” Sophie asked.
“Do you want me to?” Tristan's eyes glinted.
“Join me.”
After all, it was better to enjoy the hot spring together.
Sophie enjoyed spending time with Tristan.
“All right if you insist,” Tristan said with a grin.
After stepping into the hot spring, he could feel his muscles relaxing.
“It was really wise of you to purchase this property. I really like it here,” she commented.
Tristan used to think that he was too busy to enjoy life. However, he then realized that he had only been working hard so that he could live a good life.
Since he could afford to enjoy luxuries in his life, he reckoned he ought to make the best of it.
“I'm glad you like it,” Tristan replied. He thought that the place was great too.
Most importantly, they could have the private hot spring experience all to themselves.
“Yeah,” she mumbled.
Tristan ordered someone to fetch a bottle of red wine as well as two wine glasses.
The bottle was already open, and Tristan poured a glass for himself, and another for Sophie.
“Have some. This red wine is quite good.”
He had spent a small fortune on the bottle of red wine.
However, it was not the money that mattered, as he had spent a lot of effort to get that bottle of red wine.
Sophie took the glass and had a sip. As expected, the taste was exquisite.
Tristan raised his glass to clink it against Sophie's.
Then he took a sip as well. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he drank.
Sophie had to admit that Tristan looked really handsome when he drank the wine.
It was a treat to watch him drink.
“What's the matter?” Tristan asked.
He noticed Sophie was gazing at him intently. Is there something on my face?
“Nothing. I was just wondering, how is it possible that you're so good-looking, and what are the odds that I'd get to know you? I consider myself really lucky to have met you,” Sophie said.
Tristan burst into a chuckle at her forthright praises.
“I'm glad that you find my face pleasing,” he teased.
“Tristan, can I ask you something? Why do you like me?”
“I'm not sure. I guess it was love at first sight.”
“Love... or lust? Haven't you heard the saying that love at first sight is actually lust at first sight?”
“Do you think I'm that shallow?”
“Yes!”
“All right, I'll admit that I was attracted to your face at first. Surely, you have to agree that it's a plus point that the person you like coincidentally has an attractive look?”
The two of them chatted as they drank, and unknowingly, they finished the bottle of red wine.
Sophie felt a bit dizzy, and she reckoned it could be from the wine, or simply because she was in the hot spring for too long.
“What's the matter?”
“I'm feeling dizzy.”
“Let's go. We can't be in the hot spring for a long time anyway. It's not good for our health.”
“Okay.”
Just when Sophie stood up, she felt her legs giving out and almost stumbled.
Fortunately, Tristan caught her just in time.
He frowned and asked, “Why? Are you not feeling well?”
Sophie recollected herself and said, “I'm all right. Maybe I got up too fast.”
Tristan swept her off her feet, and she immediately circled her hands around his neck.
“I'm really okay. I can walk.”
However, Tristan wouldn't listen as he carried her all the way back to the presidential suite.
He headed straight for the bathroom and turned on the shower.
“I'm really all right,” Sophie reiterated.
Still, Tristan wouldn't listen.
“All right, stay still. I promise not to do anything to you. Don't worry.”
“That's not it...”
Before she could say no, he took off all her clothes.
Sophie's face turned beet red instantly.
She was so embarrassed that her ears turned bright pink as well.
“Mr. Tristan...”
She was completely naked right then.
Truth be told, it was Tristan's first time seeing her like this, and he had to admit that she had a great body.
Her body was slender and toned, with no flab whatsoever, especially her waist.
She must have worked out frequently to maintain her waistline. It was an enticing sight to behold.
Tristan thought he could refrain himself. However, he was on the brink of losing control just after taking a glance.
He even forgot to breathe.
Sophie dared not look at him either.
“Could you please head out for a moment?” she asked in a small voice.
It was a really peculiar feeling to be fully naked in front of him.
She was so overcome by abashment that her toes were curling up.
“No,” Tristan rejected her outright. Nothing could make him get out of the bathroom right then.
He took over the showerhead and started to rinse her body.
He was only wearing swimming trunks. In other words, the swimming trunks were the only piece of fabric separating them.
After getting Sophie out of the shower and getting her dressed, Tristan headed right back into the bathroom.
He turned down the temperature of the water and let the cold water run through his whole body. However, it failed to cool down the fire burning inside him.
Meanwhile, Sophie curled up in bed. As she thought about what had happened back in the bathroom, she quickly pulled the covers over herself.
She could still feel his touch lingering on every inch of her skin, sending little tingles to every corner of her body.
Why is he taking so long in his shower? He's going to get a cold this way. Well, I'm sure him continuing to restrain his urge will not do him any good either. Tristan really treats me well.
Sophie thought that maybe, for the sake of his health, she could actually consider agreeing to have premarital sex with him.
However, she wasn't sure if she was going to initiate.
After all, she didn't feel comfortable initiating as a woman.
Right then, Tristan finally came out of the shower. He was only wrapped in a white towel.
At the sight of Sophie wrapping herself up like a cocoon, Tristan made his way over and gently pulled away the blanket.
hook her head.
