Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 572

“Why should I tell you what she said to me?” Tristan replied with a smug expression on his face. It's a secret between Sophie and me, which has nothing to do with them!

Charles was at a loss for words.

Never mind. I shouldn't have asked. Why do I always do this to myself? I know Mr. Tristan won't share anything, yet, I simply can't resist asking. Well, maybe I'm just too curious about the dynamics of the relationship between the couple!

Meanwhile, Felix burst out laughing. He enjoyed seeing the defeated look on Charles' face.

As for Sean, he merely ignored them and kept walking into the restaurant. It was already lunchtime, and he was famished.

Tristan, too, could not be bothered to entertain the two men further and continued making his way into the pizza place.

“Why are you laughing? Nothing about this is funny!” Charles' embarrassment turned into anger. After a pause, he continued, “I'm just curious.”

“What's there to be curious about? Haven't you been dating women the whole time?” Felix continued to tease his friend.

However, most of Charles' dating experience happened in bed.

Charles rolled his eyes at Felix and started ignoring him.

Are these guys really my friends? Why are they all so heartless?

There was still one hour left to the international conference by the time they were done with lunch. Tristan got into the car and said to the other three men, “I think you guys should take a walk back. It's good to exercise after eating.”

“Hold on, Mr. Tristan. The conference is starting soon. Where are you going off to now?” Charles asked, feeling speechless.

“I'm going to meet Sophie for a while!” Tristan could not help but feel like something was missing from not being able to see her at noon. As such, he decided to head back and take a look.

Felix was stumped for words.

Is he serious? Does he really need to do that? It has only been a few hours since they last saw each other. I can't believe he's doing this, even though time is so tight.

“Mr. Tristan, we don't have much time left. It would be too tiring for you to rush to and fro,” Sean said disapprovingly.

It's not as if Sophie would run away. Why must he be in a hurry to see her now?

“That's enough. You guys should go back to the office and just let me be.” Tristan drove off after saying that. He simply wanted to see her, even if it was just for a second, even if they did not get to do anything else.

“Gosh! Mr. Tristan must have gone crazy. What spell did Sophie cast on him? How did he become like that?”

“Exactly. This lovesickness is just too scary.”

“What should I do? I am suddenly missing Ysabelle. Should I go meet her for a while too?” Felix realized that he had not been a dutiful boyfriend.

I should be learning from Mr. Tristan.

Charles slung his arm around Felix's neck and dragged him along.

“Hold your horses, and stop trying to agitate the two of us.” So what if they have girlfriends? It doesn't give them the right to take a dig at us.

“I wasn't trying to agitate you. I do miss her, okay? Besides, I won't waste my energy trying to make you feel bad,” Felix said with a grin on his face.

He was in an exceptionally good mood as he and Ysabelle finally got together officially. As such, he could not be bothered to argue with Charles.

Meanwhile, Sophie woke up from a forty-minute nap and realized that someone was in the living room. When she stepped out of her room to take a look, she was surprised to see Tristan.

“Don't you have another conference in the afternoon? Why did you come home?” she asked. Due to his extremely packed schedule, they did not have lunch together that day.

Noticing that she was awake, Tristan spread his arms wide open.

“I just missed you so much suddenly. It was such a strong longing.” I came home because I wanted to see you.

Sophie glanced at the time and saw that it was already two in the afternoon. I have to attend my anatomy class now.

“But I have to go to class now,” she said as she hugged the man. A second later, she asked, “Tristan, did something happen today?”

She could not help but wonder if something had happened without her knowing, causing him to behave that way.

Tristan wrapped his arms tightly around her as he replied, “No. Nothing happened. Everything went on smoothly. I just miss you so much all of a sudden.”

With that, he planted a kiss on her forehead.

When Sophie heard his words, her heart skipped a beat.

This man knows exactly what to say to tug at my heartstrings.

The next moment, she kissed Tristan's lips.

It was a passionate kiss. Both of them were losing themselves in the romantic exchange, finding it impossible to stop.

“I don't feel like attending the conference anymore!” At that moment, Tristan realized he was easily charmed by her. Even if she did nothing, he would still find himself drawn to her and intoxicated by her attractiveness.

Sophie panted softly while leaning against his chest.

With an indulgent smile on her face, she replied, “Don't go if you don't feel like going. Sean and the others will be there anyway!” As long as Sean's present, nothing will go wrong.

She had absolute confidence in Sean's abilities.

“Sean? It seems like you think very highly of him!” Tristan remarked. She hasn't spoken so highly about the rest before, and yet, she seems to be always singing Sean's praises.

“Yeah. Apart from you, he's second to none in his abilities.” Besides, Sean is a very calm person who does everything in an orderly manner.

Even though Sophie was speaking the truth, Tristan could not help but feel slightly upset.

“How could you pay attention to another man?” Naturally, he was also aware of how outstanding Sean was.

“What's that? Are you jealous? Sean is a close friend of yours! Don't worry. I won't fall for him!” Men and women can admire each other without having romantic feelings for one another, can't they?

“I'm not jealous. I just don't like you paying attention to other men.” Tristan trusted Sophie completely.

“Let's go. I'll send you to class,” he continued. After dropping her off at class, he would still make it to the office in time.

“No need. You should just head straight to the office. Otherwise, it would be too rushed for you,” she urged, aware that he had a very important conference in the afternoon.

If he doesn't leave now, he will have to speed to get there in time. That'd be too dangerous.

“Let's leave the house together, then,” Tristan suggested.

Due to the time constraint, all he managed to do was see Sophie for a short while.

The two of them parted ways after leaving the condominium.

Even though Tristan did not have a chance to rest, he was feeling rejuvenated from the kiss with Sophie earlier and was not tired at all.

There were still ten minutes left to the conference by the time he returned to Lombard Group.

The other three men were waiting for him in his office.

“So, how was your trip back home? Did you receive any benefits?” Charles asked in a suggestive tone.

Tristan could not even be bothered to look at him.

Nothing decent ever comes out of his mouth.

Being ignored once again, Charles scratched his nose awkwardly.

“Do we have all the information ready? You guys know that this is a very important conference, right?” Tristan reminded the other three men.

“Of course, we are aware of the immense importance of this conference.” Sean nodded before continuing, “Don't worry. We have gotten everything prepared.”

“Okay!”

Tristan was relieved to get an affirmative response from Sean. That conference would affect Lombard Group's market share in Anglandur.

Due to the high stakes of the meeting, everyone had spent a lot of time preparing for it.

“Mr. Tristan, you have never thought of expanding the business into Anglandur previously. Are you doing this now because of Sophie?”

It seems like there is nothing Mr. Tristan would not do as long as it concerns Sophie.

“I just can't stand Nicholas Sable! Anyway, what has he been up to recently?” Tristan inquired, as there did not seem to be any news about Nicholas lately.
