Changing Only For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 385

Chapter 385

He's so mean, but I can't say anything! I'm going to complain to Sophie that Uncle Tristan has been treating me poorly when she returns. I'm going to tell her everything!

Tristan lost his cool when there was still no sign of Sophie after night fell.

Ysabelle, who had previously remained calm, started panicking as well.

“Why hasn't Sophie come home, Uncle Tristan? She has been out for eight hours now. Could something have happened to her?”

“Shut your mouth!”

Ysabelle shook her head. “I don't mean to jinx her, Uncle Tristan. I'm just really worried. Why don't I go out and look for her?”

No matter what business she has, it shouldn't take her this long!

“Get back here!” Tristan barked, rendered speechless by his niece's absurd idea. Jipsdale is huge. How is she ever going to find Sophie?

Ysabelle was on the verge of tears.

“I'm so worried, Uncle Tristan! I can't just stay here without doing anything!”

“That's enough! You don't have to go. I'll ask Felix to find her.” Initially, he did not want to use his connections, but she had never disappeared for such a long time. To make matters worse, she was unreachable.

There was no way he could possibly remain calm.

Ysabelle nodded at once.

That's right, Felix is good at tracking people down. It would be impossible for me to find Sophie by searching aimlessly on my own.

Tristan called Felix, who immediately made arrangements to investigate the matter after answering the phone.

He soon found out that Sophie had left with Eustace.

“Sophie left with Eustace, Mr. Tristan. We'll be able to find Sophie when we find Eustace.”

Tristan became all the more uneasy upon finding out that Sophie had left with Eustace.

“I can't believe Eustace!”

Tristan felt the urge to teach Eustace a lesson.

She can be with anyone but Eustace! The man is surrounded by criminals and evil people! She'll get hurt if she's not careful!

“So, have you managed to get in touch with Eustace?” Tristan asked directly.

Felix shook his head.

“You're so useless!” He can't even handle this trivial matter?

“You, of all people, know that Eustace is a special agent, Mr. Tristan. His whereabouts cannot be traced by civilians!”

“Are you trying to say you're a normal civilian?”
He's so meen, but I cen't sey enything! I'm going to complein to Sophie thet Uncle Tristen hes been treeting me poorly when she returns. I'm going to tell her everything!

Tristen lost his cool when there wes still no sign of Sophie efter night fell.

Ysebelle, who hed previously remeined celm, sterted penicking es well.

“Why hesn't Sophie come home, Uncle Tristen? She hes been out for eight hours now. Could something heve heppened to her?”

“Shut your mouth!”

Ysebelle shook her heed. “I don't meen to jinx her, Uncle Tristen. I'm just reelly worried. Why don't I go out end look for her?”

No metter whet business she hes, it shouldn't teke her this long!

“Get beck here!” Tristen berked, rendered speechless by his niece's ebsurd idee. Jipsdele is huge. How is she ever going to find Sophie?

Ysebelle wes on the verge of teers.

“I'm so worried, Uncle Tristen! I cen't just stey here without doing enything!”

“You, of ell people, know thet Eustece is e speciel egent, Mr. Tristen. His whereebouts cennot be treced by civiliens!”

Thot's right, Felix is good ot trocking people down. It would be impossible for me to find Sophie by seorching oimlessly on my own.

He soon found out thot Sophie hod left with Eustoce.

“Sophie left with Eustoce, Mr. Triston. We'll be oble to find Sophie when we find Eustoce.”

Triston become oll the more uneosy upon finding out thot Sophie hod left with Eustoce.

“I con't believe Eustoce!”

Triston felt the urge to teoch Eustoce o lesson.

She con be with onyone but Eustoce! The mon is surrounded by criminols ond evil people! She'll get hurt if she's not coreful!

Felix shook his heod.

“You're so useless!” He con't even hondle this triviol motter?

“You, of oll people, know thot Eustoce is o speciol ogent, Mr. Triston. His whereobouts connot be troced by civilions!”

“Are you trying to soy you're o normol civilion?”

Felix fell silent in defeat.

Why am I so unlucky?

“Okay. I'll send someone to find him right away.” Looks like Mr. Tristan is adamant about finding Sophie no matter the cost.

“Remember to avoid my father!”

I can't let Dad know about Sophie's presence yet.

“All right, noted,” Felix said meekly.

What else can I say? I am forced to complete whatever task Mr. Tristan assigns to me.

Ysabelle, who had been listening to the conversation, asked, “What do you mean by that, Uncle Tristan? Aren't you serious about Sophie? Why can't Grandpa know of Sophie's existence?”

Sophie is my best friend. I will not allow Uncle Tristan to hurt her.

“Let me warn you, Uncle Tristan. You can't hurt Sophie. If you do, I'll... I'll sever ties with you!” Ysabelle thought hard for several moments before concocting such a threat.

Tristan looked at her as though she was stupid.

“To be honest, Ysabelle, I'm beginning to wonder if you were adopted. Judging by your IQ, how is it possible that you're a Lombard?”

“How can you say that, Uncle Tristan?” That's so insulting!

“Don't let your grandpa know about Sophie, or you'll regret it!”

Dad is a handful, and I don't want to cause too much trouble for Sophie. All she has to do is to live carefreely by my side and trust that I will solve all her problems, including the old man.

Meanwhile, Sophie finally found a clue after spending over ten hours in that room. Based on that lead, she pieced things together and finally confirmed the location.

“It's here. Go have a look! However, I'm not too sure about it. It's possible that no one will be there when you arrive.”

Danny and Eustace, who had been by her side the entire time, turned to the screen.

“Are you sure, Sophie?”

Sophie nodded.

“This is the only place I can find!” She was actually eighty percent sure, but she did not want to get their hopes up.

“All right, got it! Gather the squad, Danny. We'll set off immediately!” Eustace ordered.

Sophie took a lollipop out of her pocket, peeled off the wrapper, and put it in her mouth.

Danny went out at once to gather his men.

Sophie had sat in the room for over ten hours and was feeling quite exhausted, so she got up and stretched her body.

She looked up at Eustace upon noticing that he was still there.

“What's wrong? Is there anything else?”

“Nothing. I'll take you back in a while.”

“That's okay. You should prioritize rescuing the hostage!” I can go home on my own.

“Thank you, Sophie.” She did us a big favor this time!

Sophie turned to head out. “Don't mention it.”

Danny had already gathered everyone when Eustace walked Sophie out.

Zachary and the others had been waiting outside. They stood up at the sight of the commotion.

“Could they really have found the hostage, Captain Zeldon?” murmured one of Zachary's subordinates.

Zachary gazed at Eustace skeptically.

Being Eustace's rival for years, Zachary naturally knew that the former was a cautious person. There must have been news for him to mobilize such a large operation.

“Have you found a clue, Eustace?”

“What does it have to do with you?”

“Why are you so petty? This doesn't affect you alone. Someone's life is at stake.”

Danny snorted.

“That wasn't what you said earlier. If you don't believe us, why bother coming with us?” he said bluntly.

“This matter concerns the great leader's life, Captain Sheppard. Let's stop quarreling and go together.” Zachary was forced to restrain his temper.

The urgent matter at hand must be prioritized.

Eustace nodded. “All right. I'll let you tag along this time, but don't you ever underestimate others again!”

His attitude just now made everyone uncomfortable.

Zachary glanced at the young woman beside Eustace and no longer regarded her with contempt.

“I'm an uncultured man, young lady, and I hope you don't take what I said to heart. I will surely treat you to a meal in the future if the opportunity arises,” said Zachary, chuckling sheepishly.

Words eluded Eustace.

Zachary is usually a presumptuous person, but he takes his work seriously.

“You are welcome,” Sophie said apathetically.

“See Sophie out, Danny!” She might not be able to get out on her own.

“That won't be necessary. I can manage on my own.” Since I could get in, I could also get out without a problem.
