Changing only for her (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 738

Chapter 738 Courting Death

“It's okay. They'll be fine.” Sophie could not find any other comforting words to say. She was never good at consoling people.

Tristan tightened his grip on her hand and said, “Yeah, I know. You've had a long day today. Sit down and rest for a while.” Even at such a critical moment, he was still worried about her.

“I'm fine. I'll stay here with you,” the woman assured.

Back when Sophie's grandfather was unwell, he had stayed and kept her company too. She only wished that Sarah and the others were all right.

“Okay,” he replied.

Thankfully, neither William nor Sarah was seriously hurt. They only required a simple treatment from the doctor.

“As for the specifics, we need to do more tests tomorrow to find out. However, they shouldn't have any serious injuries.” The doctor spoke truthfully.

“All right. Doctor, remember to do a full body check for him.” Even though William had an annual body check-up, it was safer to do it once more.

“Okay, I'll leave first.” With that, the doctor left.

Tristan entered the ward soon after. Although William was clear-headed now, he looked a little disheveled.

But he was still the William Lombard from Jipsdale that everyone was familiar with.

The man that no one could mess with.

Even though Sophie was there, William did not comment.

“It's just a minor injury. There's no need for you all to stay here. You can all go home.” The old man was mindful that it was late at night, and it was pointless for them to stay any longer.

“Grandpa, you nearly scared me to death.” Seeing that William was okay, Ysabelle could not hold back her tears and cried.

Seeing the woman crying miserably, William felt very heartbroken.

“Look at me. Don't I seem fine? Don't cry, my good girl!” he coaxed.

Ysabelle was his most beloved granddaughter, so naturally, he could not bear to see her feeling so devastated.

Felix immediately handed her some tissues to wipe her face. “Okay, stop crying. It's already late, so let me send you back! Let's not disturb your grandpa's rest,” he suggested.

What a complicated relationship.

As a wise man, William could naturally deduce Ysabelle and Felix's relationship. He had no problem with the two being together.

However, their relationship was simply too complicated.

“Grandpa, I'll come to see you tomorrow. Please rest well and listen to the doctor's advice, okay?” Ysabelle urged.

“Yes. Don't worry; I'm okay. After you head back, rest well and don't overthink,” William comforted.

“Okay,” Ysabelle relented before leaving with Felix.

Sophie knew that William wanted to discuss something with Tristan privately. Hence, she found an excuse to leave.

As she sat alone in the hospital corridor, she counted her blessings that Sarah and the others were all fine.

At that moment, she felt very fortunate.

Suddenly, Sophie's phone rang. It was an unfamiliar number, but she answered the call anyway.

“Sophie, it's me!”

Nicholas Sable! Why can't he just give up? Hadn't I made myself clear?

“Have you received the gift I sent you?” he asked.

Hearing his words, Sophie narrowed her eyes. “What do you mean? Explain yourself.”

“Car accident!” Nicholas replied straightforwardly. “Sophie, no matter what, we are still friends, right? How could you not invite me to your engagement? I was very displeased, so I got you a small gift. You don't mind, do you?”

So all of this was because of him!

“You're courting death, Nicholas!” the woman bellowed.

How could he do this? Luckily, Old Mr. Lombard and the others are okay. Otherwise, what am I going to say to Tristan?

When the man sensed Sophie's fury, he could not help but laugh.

“Do you feel angry right now? I was likewise furious when I learned that you were getting engaged to Tristan. I told you previously that I loved you and that you couldn't marry anyone else.”

Nicholas was so obsessed with her that it was borderline crazy.

“I can overlook this incident. Let's treat this as a lesson. Don't marry him, or the next punishment won't be so simple,” the man threatened. “If you don't care about his father's and sister's lives, I have nothing to say.”

Sophie was enraged by Nicholas's insanity.

“Nicholas Sable, are you out of your mind? Where are you? I'll find you, and we'll settle things once and for all.” She was tired of Nicholas' constant badgering. It would be better to just end things directly.

“No! If you see me now, you'll definitely kill me!” Nicholas replied. He stood in front of a window, looking at the city night view with a glass of red wine in his hand.

“You better pray that I don't find you, Nicholas. Otherwise, you won't live past that encounter,” Sophie hissed before ending the call.

Next, she called Butterfly and instructed, “Find Nicholas Sable. I swear I'll kill him this time!”

Butterfly was surprised to hear Sophie's furious voice because she hadn't heard her that upset in a long time.

“What's wrong?” she asked in concern.

Nicholas was a ruthless psycho and not someone to mess with.

“You don't need to bother about anything else. He's in Chanaea now. Just find out his location and send it to me,” Sophie said tersely. It had been a long time since she felt so enraged and eager to kill someone.

It took her so long to find happiness, so she did not want anyone to destroy her life.

“Okay, I got it. Don't worry. I'll find his location and send it to you right away,” Butterfly said confidently.

Meanwhile, in the hospital room, Tristan was exasperated at his father's behavior.

“Can't you say whatever you have to say in front of Sophie? She'll be upset if you act like this,” he lamented.

The old man was rendered speechless by Tristan's complaint.

They haven't even gotten married yet, but he's already so biased toward her!

“I'm doing this for her own good. There are some things that she should not know,” William explained. “Do you know why we had the car accident?”

After Tristan shook his head, the old man continued, “Someone shot the tire with a gun! Everything happened too quickly, so I didn't have the chance to tell you. This car accident was intentional.”

As a veteran in the business world, William had seen all kinds of dirty tactics.

“I see. I'll investigate this matter. Please rest well.” Tristan's eyes turned icy cold as he spoke.

Damn it! Who could be so daring?

“Well, you be careful too.” After all, their enemy seemed well-prepared.

“I will,” Tristan replied.

“All right. Now send Sophie back to rest! I think our enemy just wants to threaten us, so there's no need to stay here and guard me,” William said.
