Sophie only left Arius' room when he chased her out and told her to get some rest.
Sophie went back to one of the wards that she was temporarily staying in.
The moment she opened the door, she grew wary instantly because she realized someone was in the room. At that moment, she was a researcher for the virus, so there were always people protecting her. Even so, she was still cautious.
Sensing that someone was in the bathroom, Sophie went over and held the doorknob. The next second, she turned the doorknob and pushed the door open.
Right when she was about to attack the intruder, she was delivered a warm hug.
“It's me!” the man said.
Sophie hadn't heard that voice in a long time. When she finally heard his voice, her heart started racing wildly. We haven't seen each other in more than two weeks!
“Why are you here? Why are you not in Anglandur? Besides, this is a hospital, and the virus is still not under control. Don't you know how dangerous it is for you to come here?” she asked.
“I came because I miss you!” Tristan missed her so dearly that he had gone to see her the moment he returned to Jipsdale.
The whole time he was in Anglandur, he missed her badly. In fact, he had never missed someone as much as he had missed her.
“I've missed you too! I've missed you so much!” In truth, she had always been an independent girl. Hence, she was surprised by how much she missed him. Seeing that he was finally by her side, she kissed him without thinking about the consequences.
On the other hand, Tristan was planning to do so from the beginning.
At once, he took the initiative and kissed her back. The atmosphere in the bathroom immediately grew intense. He was kissing her aggressively while pinning her against the sink.
After a while, he wanted more, so he carried her onto the sink and stood in between her legs to continue kissing her.
It was as if they just couldn't get enough of each other.
In the end, he was gasping for air as he held her in his embrace. “I've already captured Stephen, so he'll be connected to the virus. It's definitely going to work in our favor!”
Sophie then held his head and grumbled, “Why did you do such a dangerous thing? Didn't I tell you I can find the antidote?”
“It wasn't dangerous at all! It's just Stephen. Capturing him was child's play.” Tristan wanted to help her instead of letting her fight the battle on her own.
“Oh, you!” Sophie kissed his forehead. “We've achieved a breakthrough with the research, so everything's going to end soon. Don't worry.” She believed that she would be back by his side in no time.
“You're so incredible!” Tristan praised. “I'm serious. You're the most incredible among us. However, that's not what I want. I just want you to keep yourself safe when things get dicey!”
Tristan was a selfish man, so all he wanted was for her to stay safe.
“Have you only returned from Anglandur?” Sophie noticed how tired he looked. He must've come to see me the moment he arrived.
“Yes.”
“Go home and rest, okay? It isn't comfortable here, and you won't like it!” Sophie knew Tristan had always been pampered, and he only used quality goods.
“No. I'm finally back, so I want to be with you!” Tristan carried her to the hospital bed before getting into the bed himself.
The hospital bed was small, so they had to squeeze.
Neither of them had a good night's rest over the past few days, so they were both dog-tired. However, neither of them could fall asleep.
Tristan couldn't sleep either, but he remembered how little sleep he had gotten over the past few days. Still, he couldn't help but urge, “Sleep!”
Why is he asking me to sleep when he can't seem to fall asleep? Sophie leaned in closer toward him and voiced, “Don't you have trouble falling asleep as well?”
“I do. I can't sleep,” he replied. Too many things had happened recently, so I'm just so happy I get to hold her once more. In fact, I feel relieved. It's just that I haven't seen her in so long, so I can't bear to close my eyes.
In the dark, Tristan once again found her lips, and he ended up kissing her again.
Instantly, the atmosphere in the room became intimate.
If we continue doing this, neither of us is going to get any sleep tonight. I can't keep staying here and disrupting her sleep. With that in mind, Tristan immediately got out of bed and said, “Sleep, okay? Take care.”
“Okay. Be careful on your way home, and don't worry about me.” Sophie was blushing uncontrollably, but she knew he had to go home to rest.
Tristan caressed her cheek and said, “Don't worry about me!”
With that, he left the ward. True enough, Sophie managed to calm her mind and fall asleep soon after he left.
When she woke up the next morning, she showered and got changed before meeting Barney and the rest. Although the new antidote was working well, it seemed to have some side effects. Therefore, their priority was to minimize the side effects.
“Frankly, the side effects aren't that serious anymore,” Georgina uttered softly. This is the best anyone could do.
“No. These side effects might affect the users' genetics. We need to make improvements!”
Too many people were going to be affected, so they couldn't afford to take risks.
“Georgina, please stay here and monitor the patients who have taken medicine. Sophie and I have to leave for a while!” Barney knew Tristan had captured Stephen, so he wanted to see Stephen.
“Sure, Dr. Smith.” Obviously, Georgina wasn't going to have a problem with that. Throughout that period of time, she had learned plenty from Barney and Sophie. I might've even learned the things that could change my life!
Barney left alongside Sophie. Eustace was waiting for them outside. He returned at the same time as Tristan.
Upon seeing Barney and Sophie walking out, Eustace immediately got out of his military jeep and opened the door for the both of them.
“This way, Dr. Smith!” Since they were in Chanaea, Eustace was tasked to protect Barney.
Barney got into the car, and Sophie followed closely behind. They soon arrived at a military base.
Stephen was held captive at that location.
He was stunned momentarily when he saw Barney.
“You're a traitor, Barney! What are you trying to do? I'm not letting you off the hook! Trust me!” Stephen was livid when he saw Barney. “Also, you want to move the International Medical Association to Chanaea, don't you? I refuse to accept it!”
Barney found Stephen amusing. “Stephen, who do you think you are? You're now a captive! Do you think I need your acceptance? You're so shameless. Do you think you're speaking for everyone?”
