Changing Only For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 492

Chapter 492

“You told your dad that you have a girlfriend?” Sophie asked the moment Tristan hung up the phone.
“You told your dad that you have a girlfriend?” Sophie asked the moment Tristan hung up the phone.

“He wanted me to come home, but I don't feel like going home just yet, so I had to play the girlfriend card. Don't worry since he won't do anything to you,” Tristan replied confidently with a nod.

Sophie fell speechless when she heard that.

What? I'm not afraid of him hurting me! I just don't feel like dealing with this stuff just yet!

Noticing the displeased look on Sophie's face, Arius shot Tristan a fierce glare and said, “You'd better handle those family relationships of yours well, you hear me? If you make Sophie upset, I'll take her somewhere far, far away! You won't be able to see her ever again!”

He couldn't bear to see Sophie get bullied.

“I suggest you leave before I beat you up,” Tristan threatened.

This is between me and Sophie! He has no right to interfere!

Arius waved his fist in the air defiantly as he snapped back at Tristan, “Yeah? With those injuries of yours? I'd like to see you try!” Even if he couldn't defeat Tristan in a fight, he had other ways of getting back at him.

“That's enough, Arius! Didn't you say you have something to do? You should head on back now!”

Sophie knew Arius was just trying to help her out, but she believed it wouldn't be appropriate for him to butt into her relationship problems with Tristan.

“All right, then. I'll be leaving now. Let me know if he bullies you, okay? I'm a surgeon. I can stab at him a hundred times, and it still wouldn't count as murder!”

Tristan shot him an icy-cold glare in response, but Arius ignored him completely and continued chatting with Sophie for a little while longer before leaving.

When it was just the two of them in Wisteria Apartments, Tristan gently hugged Sophie from behind and asked, “Are you unhappy because I told my dad I had a girlfriend?”

“No, I'm not unhappy. I just don't know how to get along with elderly people,” Sophie replied. Although William was Tristan's father, he was most certainly old enough to be Sophie's grandfather.

“You don't have to worry about a thing. I'll take care of things with my family, so no one will give you any trouble.”

“Okay.”

“I'll bring you over to meet my father once I'm all better.”

William was the most important person in Tristan's life, so he really wanted to introduce them to each other.

“All right.”

She couldn't possibly say no to meeting someone who mattered that much to him, especially since he had always treated Josiah so well.

Tristan gently caressed her cheeks as he added, “I'm serious, Sophie. You're too adorable to be disliked!”

He believed his father would come to appreciate her as well.

Sophie brushed his hands off and said, “Okay, stop trying to convince me! I promise I'll go with you!”

I'm serious about my relationship with Tristan, and I believe we'll be able to make it work. I'll have to meet his family sooner or later anyway.

William, on the other hand, was freaking out after hanging up the phone.

I can't believe it! My son has finally found himself a girlfriend!

Sarah got curious when she came home and saw William smiling happily to himself. Dad has been rather depressed ever since Tristan got injured. Why is he suddenly so happy today?

She walked up to him and asked, “You seem to be in a great mood today, Dad! What happened?”

“Your brother found himself a girlfriend, Sarah! Why didn't you tell me about it?” William exclaimed.

He had been worried that Tristan would have difficulty finding himself a girlfriend.

What? Dad found out about it?

Unsure of whether William was just trying to trick her into telling him the truth, Sarah decided to play dumb and asked, “What are you talking about, Dad?”

“Don't play dumb with me! Tristan already got discharged by the time I went to visit him at the hospital, but he didn't come home. I gave him a call, and he told me he has a girlfriend! I always thought you'd tell me everything, but it looks like you're keeping secrets from me too!”

“I'm not keeping secrets from you, Dad! I only found out about him having a girlfriend recently, and I didn't know how I should tell you about it.”

Having served in the military for so many years, William could tell she was lying simply by looking at her.

“Nonsense! Anyway, who is that girl? Which family is she from? What is her personality like? Is she worthy of dating Tristan?”

William believed his children were the most excellent, so he expected them to only date those who were equally excellent.

“She's a decent girl, and I like her very much. Please don't bully her, okay?”

William, who always saw himself as easy-going, asked, “What are you talking about? Are you saying I'm a difficult person?”

“I'm just reminding you, Dad. Tristan likes her to the point where he's determined to marry her, so you'd better not scare her away!”

“What do you mean by that, Sarah? Am I really that scary?” William exclaimed in displeasure. What's the meaning of this? I thought my kids liked me!

“I didn't mean anything else.”

“Whatever, I'll let that slide this time. Even your brother has found himself a girlfriend, Sarah. Isn't it about time you get yourself a boyfriend too? I know you like Juan, but he doesn't seem to feel the same about you. You've been holding on to your feelings for him for so many years now. It's time to let go and move on.”

William didn't want to pressure her as he knew about her feelings for Juan, but he got worried when he saw that she was still single after so long.

Sarah did not want to talk about that.

“I know what I'm doing, Dad. Don't worry. I've already given up on Juan.” Having kept at it for so long, she got really tired and decided to give up.

“All right. You're an adult now, so I trust you know what's best for you. Your mom was the only person in this household you could talk to freely about your problems, so life must've been rough for you after she was gone. I may not be able to help you out much, but I do hope you'll find someone who'll love and treasure you.”

As a father, it was only natural for William to care deeply about his daughter.

“I know, Dad.”

Later that night, Sarah brought some food over to Wisteria Apartments.

Tristan wasn't too happy about her showing up uninvited, but Sarah didn't care.

Ysabelle rushed over the moment she heard Sarah was there, which only added to Tristan's displeasure.

Sarah got straight to the point and asked, “Dad already knows about you having a girlfriend, Tristan. When will you bring her over to meet him?”

“I'll think about it when I'm all better,” Tristan replied.

“What? Does Grandpa know about this? Do you guys think he'll like Sophie?” Ysabelle asked curiously.

“It doesn't matter if he likes her or not,” Tristan said.

Sophie felt a warm sensation in her heart when she saw how protective he was.

“Don't worry, Sophie. My dad is a very easygoing person. He knows how much Tristan likes you, so he won't pick on you or anything,” Sarah reassured her.

“Okay.”

After everything she had experienced in life, Sophie no longer felt nervous over such trivial matters.

However, she couldn't help but feel a little concerned about meeting William. After all, Tristan would be put in a difficult spot if things didn't go well between her and William.
