Hence, Felix silently approached Tristan. He and the others had been tending to Lombard Group when Tristan wasn't around.
Since Tristan had returned, it was time to let him take charge of Lombard Group's matters again.
“Your girlfriend stole my spot, Mr. Tristan,” uttered Felix in a depressed tone. Sophie really does have unparalleled charm.
“So?” Tristan asked casually. There's nothing right or wrong about anything Sophie does.
“It's nothing.” Felix understood the look in his employer's eyes and sighed in his heart.
There was nothing he could do but sulk about it in silence since it was impossible for him to win against Tristan.
“Then what are you sulking about? There's nothing I can do if Ysabelle only has eyes for Sophie. In fact, I was hoping you could control your girlfriend a little so she wouldn't cling to mine every day!”
Speechlessly, Felix thought, Mr. Tristan is overestimating me! I can't control Ysabelle!
“You've become thinner, Sophie,” said Ysabelle with heartache. “You only stayed in Anglandur for a month, so why do you look so skinny? Did Uncle Tristan fail to take good care of you?”
“No, he did. This is just what I'm like. When I get busy, I get thinner. There's nothing I can do about this physique of mine,” Sophie answered. “Although, I don't think it's all bad. Look, I don't even need to lose weight. While others are busy doing that, I can eat and drink whatever I want. It's pretty great.”
“No, it's not. When Aunt Sarah has her break, I'll ask her to cook delicious food for you!” Ysabelle suggested. While I don't have any talent for cooking, Aunt Sarah does!
“It's not necessary. Sarah's tired enough as it is. I don't want to trouble her. I just need to rest a few days at home, and I'll be fine.”
When Sarah arrived with a bag of vegetables she had bought from the supermarket and heard that, she refuted, “It's no trouble at all! I'll prepare a tasty meal for you today. After all, you're the pride of the Lombard family, Sophie.” I can't help but feel proud that Tristan found a girlfriend like her.
Her praise embarrassed Sophie a little. “I didn't do anything special, Sarah. I just so happen to be knowledgeable about that.”
“You're too humble, Sophie!” Ysabelle shook her head with a smile and stared at her friend with admiration. “You're always amazing, no matter what you do!”
As it had been a while since they saw each other, they had a lengthy chat. When Sarah finished preparing dinner, everyone ate in the dining room.
“I'm glad you two are finally back in the country,” Felix uttered. Even though Anglandur has been dangerous recently, the two of them still went there without hesitation and helped out so much. It's impressive.
Smiling, Sophie replied, “Thanks for your and the others' hard work when we weren't around.” He must've been busy managing Lombard Group and Tanner Group during our absence.
“What I did is honestly incomparable to what you achieved.” Felix was very impressed with her. She never ceases to amaze and surprise others.
After the meal, Ysabelle still didn't want to leave but had to after her manager called her about the music video she had to film during the afternoon.
