Chapter 812 She Is Busy
“Why are you here?” Nicholas snapped.
This was between him and Tristan, and he had an opportunity to kill Tristan today.
It would be no fun if Richard suddenly showed up and spoiled his fun.
“Boss, we were worried about you and decided to come here. Do you want us to take action now?” Richard asked carefully. This could be the ideal chance to get rid of Tristan.
Nicholas rolled his eyes. “No need. Find someone to give him a ride back to his hotel. We should leave now!”
It was only right for him to respect his opponent.
Spinning on his heel, he gave Tristan a serious look and said in a solemn tone, “I'm showing mercy today, Tristan. The next time we meet, we will still be rivals, and I won't go easy on you.”
Sophie was his first crush, and no one could make him give up on her.
“It doesn't matter whether or not you give up. Sophie doesn't care about you at all. She loves me,” Tristan announced smugly.
Nicholas said nothing.
The scathing arrogance of Tristan's words stung him deeply, and his anger began to flare. He felt helpless as he realized he was unable to do anything in the face of such an affront.
“Take him away. I don't want to see him now. He's annoying me,” Nicholas snapped impatiently.
I can't meet Sophie in this state, so I'll have to recuperate for a few days at home before attempting another visit.
Back at the hotel, Tristan bumped into Sophie unexpectedly. He had not anticipated that she would return so soon, and he was embarrassed to be seen in such a wretched state.
Never in Sophie's wildest dreams did she expect to see Tristan badly wounded one day.
Worried, she inquired, “Where did you go? How did you get hurt? Who did this to you?” She was perplexed, as Tristan was skilled at defending himself.
Tristan felt incredibly uncomfortable, not wanting to expose this side of himself to her. “Why are you back all of a sudden? I had no idea that you were coming back today,” he said, his voice betraying his unease.
“Are you saying that you can go wild since I'm not coming back?” Sophie demanded. She felt terrible for him, as his injuries were clearly quite serious.
She had only returned to collect something and was utterly shocked to find him badly hurt.
Sophie made a call to the front desk to request a medical kit. She then urged, “Come, sit down.”
Tristan felt a bit awkward as Sophie had seen him in this miserable situation.
“I'm fine. You must be busy, so you should get back to work. I can handle it myself,” he told her. His injuries, though they appeared to be severe, were only superficial.
Sophie replied sternly, “Tristan, you'd better come over while I'm still being nice.”
Does he think he's still young? He's already in his thirties but still acts impulsively and gets himself into trouble,
Knowing she would fly into a fit of rage if he refused to comply, Tristan let out a sigh and went over to sit down in front of her obediently, allowing her to dress his wounds.
Sophie was gentle, so he didn't feel any pain at all. When she had finished, she shifted him so that he could rest his head on her abdomen.
“Did Nicholas do this to you?”
Tristan was speechless. Why did she say that out loud?
He meekly replied, “He's faring worse than me. Don't worry. I didn't suffer any losses.”
Sophie chided, “Nicholas is crazy. Why would you play along with him? You should've ignored him!”
Even though Nicholas might be faring worse than Tristan, she still felt her heart ache for Tristan.
Tristan told her, “He challenged me. I would look like a coward if I refused to accept his challenge!”
