Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 725

“Sarah, what's the matter? Is Yvette giving you trouble?” Yvette's existence has become insignificant. She must be holding a grudge against Sarah.

“Don't worry about Yvette. I can handle her.” Obviously, Yvette isn't too happy about the current situation. She has always thought that she would marry Juan and become a lady of the Quigley family. There's no way she will be happy with the way things are now.

“Okay. Be careful, though. Yvette is a trashy woman. Who knows what she'll try to pull?”

Truth be told, no one could tell.

“Yeah, I know.”

“Let's change the subject, shall we? Today is supposed to be a happy day, so let's not dwell on that annoying person.”

Ysabelle had never liked Yvette to begin with. The other woman was arrogant and assumed Juan would always be around to protect her.

Now that things had come to this, it only served her right.

Inside the study, William handed over the list of gifts he had prepared to Tristan. “I know you don't like me meddling in your affairs, but as your father, this is the least I should do.”

Tristan grew up without a mother, so the duty fell on William.

Tristan was stunned when he saw the two sheets of paper filled with his father's handwriting. He had always assumed that his father would oppose his marriage.

Why is he agreeing to it now, and he's even prepared so much?

“Dad...” Tristan was not someone who wore his heart on his sleeve. At moments like this, he did not have the slightest idea of what to do to express his feelings.

William, too, felt awkward about the situation.

“I know you've been busy. Don't worry too much about it. I'll get someone to prepare the things.” William had been resting idly at home for some time now, and he was pleased with finally having something to do.

“Thank you, Dad.”

William was happy when he saw his son's reaction.

“Tristan, remember this. You're my son no matter what. I wish you utmost happiness.”

Prior to this, no matter what he did, he had always kept Tristan in mind.

“Yeah, I know.”

“Great! Why don't you stay here tonight since everyone's here? It's been a while since we've had such a gathering.”

It truly had been a long time since they had everyone present under one roof.

William's children had grown up, and they all had their own places to be. Whereas William himself had grown old and could only stay here and protect the place they called home.

“I'll ask Sophie.”

Tristan decided to seek Sophie's permission before agreeing to it. If she said it was okay, only then would they stay the night.

William was bereft of words. They're not even married yet, and he's already being led around the nose by her.

“Tristan, I must say. You don't resemble me in this aspect.”

Can't you even make simple decisions on your own? Why do you have to seek Sophie's permission?

“Dad, it's important that we respect each other. We're not even married yet, and it's important to get her consent.”

“Okay, okay. Go on, then!”

William no longer wanted to continue the conversation.

When the father and son went downstairs, they came to a stop on the stairs when they saw how well the three ladies were getting along.

Although William had always thought that his daughter was a good judge of character, he had not expected her to warm up to Sophie so much.

“Sophie is a good person.” After all, his daughter was a shrewd person! How could she like her so much?

“Yeah. She's the most wonderful person in the world,” Tristan replied. There was no doubt his Sophie was utterly perfect.

Once again, William was bereft of words. It had only been empty talk on his part. He did not expect Tristan to agree so fervently. Truly, people tend to see things from rose-tinted glasses when they are in a relationship.

It did not matter what everyone else said. To Tristan, his woman was the best.

As the two men arrived downstairs, Tristan suggested, “It's getting quite late. Why don't we stay over for the night? What do you think, Sophie?”

Tristan intended to respect Sophie's wishes no matter what. If she did not agree to it, they would leave right away.

Sophie found it hard to refuse when she saw the expectant look William was giving her.

“Okay! I also think it's getting pretty late. Anyway, I have lots to talk about with Sarah and Ysabelle. Let's stay here tonight.”

Truth be told, Sophie was an understanding person. She would do anything as long as it was in her power to do so.

William was satisfied that Sophie was not an obtuse girl.

“All right. You younglings can stay and chat. I'll be upstairs resting.”

Even if William refused to admit to it, he was, in fact, getting on in years. There were many things that were beyond his control.

“Okay! Rest early, Dad. Don't fiddle with your phone too much.”

Sarah knew that her father was prone to playing with his phone and it wasn't good for his eyesight. There's really no need for an old man to be on his phone so much!

“I know.” Hmph, can you blame me for using my phone so much? It's because you all have been too busy to keep me company that I had no choice but to occupy myself with my phone.

“You all can continue to chat. I'll go take a shower.” Since Tristan couldn't very well butt into their girls' conversation, he decided to give Sophie a little space.

“Mm, go ahead.”

The three girls continued their discussion after Tristan went upstairs.

“Sophie, you should sleep in my room tonight since it's your first time at our place. You might feel a little uncomfortable.” Ysabelle hoped that Sophie would stay with her so that they could continue to chat. There were still so many things she wanted to talk about.

“How about the three of us sleep in the same room?” Sarah liked the idea. She, too, felt somewhat excited.

“Okay!”

Sophie had no objections to that.

Once the three of them entered Ysabelle's room, they decided that Sophie should shower first. Ysabelle handed her a set of girlish pajamas.

When Sophie saw the pajamas Ysabelle held in her hands, she could not imagine what she would look like wearing those.

“Is something wrong? These are brand new. I've never worn them since I purchased them, so don't worry about it!” Ysabelle hurried to explain when she noticed Sophie's reluctance. She assumed that the latter did not like wearing used clothes.

“Got it. I'll go take a shower now.”

Sophie could only reluctantly accept the clothes Ysabelle held out. She couldn't afford to be picky. Besides, most of Ysabelle's clothes would look like this anyway.

Ysabelle was amazed beyond words when Sophie came out of the bathroom dressed in pink pajamas.

“Sophie, you really do look good in anything you wear! How can a woman like you exist?”

How are the other women supposed to live when someone like you exists?

“I'm serious. I don't think this outfit suits me,” Sophie said as she dried her hair with a towel. It was her first time wearing something like this, and it made her feel uncomfortable.

Ysabelle immediately shook her head. “I'm not joking too! You look good in those clothes. You can go ask Uncle Tristan if you don't believe me. As you know, he has impeccable taste.”
