Changing Only For Her novel (Sophie and Tristan) novel Chapter 701

Chapter 701 A Few Bodyguards

Ysabelle teared up when she saw Sophie walking down on her own. Oh, thank goodness! Thank goodness she's fine! Otherwise, I'd never have been able to forgive myself.

Upon learning of Sophie's return, Cecelia had specially requested a day off from the director so she could pick the former up at the airport.

Mark and Sunny were also present. They had not been able to make it to Jetroina when Sophie got injured due to their busy schedules, so it was only natural that they wanted to be there that day to welcome her back.

Holding onto Tristan's arm for support, Sophie slowly walked toward the group. “Why are you guys here?” she asked. They're all quite busy, so they really didn't have to come all the way here just to welcome me back.

Ysabelle broke free from Felix's grasp and rushed over to hug Sophie. “You're finally back! You don't know how much I've missed you! Thank heavens you're all better now.”

I wouldn't know what to do if she ended up not being able to stand or walk anymore! If that happened, there's no way I would forgive myself for the rest of my life!

Sophie patted her back. “Okay, that's enough. I've recovered already, so there's no need to keep beating yourself up about it.”

Tears slid down Ysabelle's cheeks when she heard that. “Okay. I'm just so thankful you're fine now.”

Going over to them, Cecelia said, “Sophie, you've been having a streak of bad luck lately, so you should be more careful. I don't wish to see you injured again.”

Ever since Sophie was a child, she had suffered a lot. Hence, everyone who cared for her wished for her to have a happy life ahead.

After studying Sophie closely from head to toe, Mark finally felt somewhat at ease.

Needless to say, Tristan noticed Mark's gaze on her. Although he was annoyed by how Mark was staring at her, he knew that Sophie cherished Mark and thus made no comment.

Meanwhile, Sunny was more unreserved. He ran up to Sophie and pulled her into a bear hug. Still feeling worried, he said, “You need to bring me along the next time you go off somewhere. That way, I can protect you even if something happens.”

“Okay, got it. Let's get going. The weather is so cold, so we shouldn't keep standing here.”

Christmas was just around the corner, and the weather in Jipsdale was gradually growing colder. Even though Sophie had a thick down jacket wrapped around her, she still felt the chill.

The others it and immediately started heading toward the exit. A car was already waiting outside. There was heating inside the vehicle, and Sophie felt much warmer as soon as she climbed in.

“Are you okay?” Arius asked in a concerned tone.

“Yeah. You don't have to be so worried. I feel a little chilly, that's all,” she replied. I only hurt my leg a little this time, and the injury has almost healed completely. As long as I don't do any strenuous exercise, I'll be fine.

“It's only natural that I'm worried. After all, I can't possibly risk my reputation, can I?” he responded. After all, I'm a doctor. If something happens to her while she's on my watch, wouldn't that ruin my good name?

She stared at him speechlessly. Forget it. That's how he talks. It's unnecessary to argue with him. I'll only drive myself mad if I take him seriously.

Finally, the group arrived at Tristan's mansion. As Sophie needed to be looked after, Tristan decided not to take her to the condominium near the University of Medicine as he felt he would not be able to take good care of her there. He had many housekeepers at the mansion, and Arius would be staying with them too. Hence, his mansion was the most suitable place for Sophie to recuperate in.

After everyone arrived at the mansion, they gathered in the living room, filling the place with chatter and laughter. The atmosphere in the usually quiet residence suddenly felt a little livelier due to the group's presence.

“Let's all have dinner together,” Ysabelle suggested. It had been a long time since they had enjoyed a meal together. She continued, “You've been in Jetroina for so long, so you must surely miss the food in Chanaea.”

“Sure!” Sophie agreed. She also missed having meals together with everyone.

As they were chatting, Sean and Charles also turned up. The pair breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Sophie had recovered. Tristan had something to discuss with Sean and Charles, so he led them into the study.

Meanwhile, Sarah busied herself with preparing food for the rest as she was the best cook among them. Now that Sophie had returned, she resolved to prepare nutritious food to help the former regain her health. Sophie had already been skinny enough, and she only got thinner after the incident. Sarah was not pleased to see that.

Noticing how Sarah had been bustling about nonstop since they reached the mansion, Sophie went over to her and said, “You should get some rest too.”

“Don't mind me. I'm just making some stew. It's not hard work at all. Go and chat with the others,” Sarah replied. Everybody had taken time off to gather there because they cared a lot about Sophie.

“All right, then. Ask the help to take care of the rest, then come out and take a break,” Sophie said before heading back into the living room.

She then asked Cecelia, “Cecelia, how's the filming for your movie? Mr. Ledger is strict, so I bet it's difficult working with him, right?”

Cecelia could not help rolling her beautiful eyes at that. “Don't think so little of me, Sophie. I'm very serious when it comes to filming. I never mess around. Mr. Ledger even praised me in front of everyone else today!”

After all, the name Cecelia Lance is synonymous with exceptional talent.

She continued after a brief pause, “Besides, even if I did mess around, no one would dare to say anything. I have a wealthy backer, after all.”

It went without saying that everyone knew who the wealthy backer was.

“He's so lucky to have someone like you in his life,” Sophie teased.

Here, Mark piped up and asked, “Is your leg really better now? You should still be careful. It takes a long time for such serious injuries to heal, and it has only been a month since you got hurt.”

“I'm really all right, Mark. Don't worry. I promise I'll be careful.” In truth, she could not afford to injure her leg again as it would be beyond saving if that happened. Nonetheless, she was not about to tell the others that. She had no intention of making them worry about her.

“Just be careful. I also don't think you should return to the University of Medicine and Jipsdale University this semester,” he said. Crowds are everywhere at universities, and some students can be rough and boisterous. There's no telling what could happen.

“I still have two projects to work on at the universities,” she explained. Hence, she had no choice but to return.

Mark frowned. “Whatever it is, your health comes first. Just do what you can and leave the rest.”

She could not help chuckling at the sight of his stern expression. “All right, I will. You've nothing to worry about. I'll take care of things as I see fit.”

“How about this? For the time being, I think it'll be better if you have a few bodyguards with you when you're out,” Mark proposed, thinking that the bodyguards would be able to handle things if something did happen.

His suggestion left her at a loss for words. I'm only a student. Do I really need to have bodyguards with me when I go out? Isn't that a little too much? There's no need for that at all!

She shook her head, rejecting his suggestion. “I'm no big shot. Why do I need to have bodyguards with me?”

“I'm not kidding, Sophie. I'm being serious,” he replied. I mean, what's the harm in having a few bodyguards?
