Changing Only For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 147

 

Cecelia was angry. Prior to that, she had never cared about Lorelei. However, she just wanted Lorelei dead when she crossed her bottom line.

“Oh, goodness!” Having grown up with Cecelia, Sophie was well aware of her temper. “That’s it, okay? It’s just Lorelei. She’s done for.”

“Okay.” Cecelia knew Sophie would get annoyed if she were to carry on pursuing the matter.

“As an actress, isn’t the state of your complexion important to you? Sleep early, okay?”

“Hey, you’re way more important to me compared to my complexion.” If Cecelia were a man, she would definitely be a sweet talker.

The two of them talked on the phone for quite a while before Cecelia reluctantly hung up.

When Sophie came out of her room, Tristan was still in the living room.

“It’s getting late,” Sophie said.

Tristan raised his gaze and glanced at Sophie. She was standing there with her auburn hair over her shoulders, looking as beautiful as always.

He beckoned her over with his finger.

Upon seeing that, Sophie walked up to him and stood in front of him. “What? Didn’t I tell you I’m fine? What makes you think I can’t beat Lorelei?”

Sophie wasn’t one to get bullied.

“I know you’re very capable, Sophie. In fact, you can even fight off mercenaries. However, I’m still not willing to see you in any form of danger. Even if your counterpart has nothing on you, I would still stand by your side because I’m worried that you might get hurt. I don’t think I can ever stay away from you. Do you know how I feel?”

Indeed, once someone had fallen in love, they would do anything in their power to keep their significant other safe and sound.

He then suddenly held her waist and pulled her downward. Just like that, she was sitting on his lap.

Before that, Sophie was standing in front of him. She couldn’t help but feel that the position she was in was a little too intimate for her liking.

“Mr. Tristan!” Sophie exclaimed in surprise.

To her surprise, Tristan merely rested his head on her shoulder.

Right then, she was overwhelmed with uncertainties. She really didn’t know what to say to make him feel better. All along, she preferred to take everything upon herself and protect the others.

However, she was at a loss whenever she was with Tristan.

Due to the uncertainties, she wasn’t even sure where she would end up in the future. Hence, she couldn’t promise Tristan anything.

“You’re so cruel, you know? I’ve already said so much, but you’re still unwilling to commit to me.” Tristan had never expected that he would end up wanting an eighteen-year-old girl to make a commitment to him.

“I…” At that point, she didn’t know what to say.

Tristan wrapped his arms around her neck and kissed her on her lips. “It’s all right. I’m not trying to put pressure on you when I said that. I just want you to know that you’re the only person I want to be with.”

After staying in that position for around ten minutes, he let go of her and let her sit on the couch. If he were to keep holding her in his arms, he could lose his cool and devour her whole.

After taking a shower, Tristan couldn’t help but smile wryly when he saw himself in the mirror. When did my willpower become so weak? Sophie was just sitting on my lap. It’s not like she was doing anything to me, so why couldn’t I control my urge?

After showering, Tristan came out with a bathrobe on. Sophie isn’t in the living room anymore. She must be in bed already, right?

When Sophie heard the door close, she got out of her room and went to the living room. As expected, he had already left.

Tristan: I’m home. Sleep early, okay?

Sophie: Okay.

Tristan wasn’t happy when he received the one-word reply. This girl is so heartless. I thought I’m a man with few words, but compared to her, it seems like I’m such a talker. It’s okay, though. All we have is time. I’ll slowly involve myself in her life, and she’ll get used to having me around.
