“Really! I'm fine! If I weren't, I would've definitely told you!” Sophie exclaimed.
“Fine!” Dylan said exasperatedly. Since Sophie put it that way, it was not a good idea for Dylan to persist. After all, Sophie could now handle difficult situations on her own.
There were no problems at all.
“Captain Green, are you still looking for your daughter?” That was the reason Sophie came looking for him.
A few years ago, Dylan's only daughter was kidnapped by a criminal gang. His wife was also brutally murdered.
Others would feel sympathetic when they thought of what Dylan had been through.
Dylan nodded when he heard Sophie mention his daughter.
“Yes. I believe my daughter is still alive. She must be waiting for me to rescue her.” Although many years had passed, he had never given up looking for her.
“Mmm.” Sophie had always known about Dylan's determination.
She had been paying attention to the case and helping him all these years.
However, despite her efforts and connections, she did not succeed.
It was as if Dylan's daughter had disappeared into thin air. There wasn't a single clue about her whereabouts.
“All right. Don't look at me like that. I'm doing fine now.” He could only continue to spend his time and focus on work to make him forget about the pain of the past.
“Okay.”
Sophie was not used to comforting others.
Hence, she did not know what else to say to him.
“I'll get some people to help you look for her.” There had to be some closure for him, whether his daughter was alive or not.
As the two of them were immersed in their conversation, Sophie's phone suddenly rang.
“Come here! The camp commander said he wanted to see you!” Tristan's deep and sexy voice could be heard from the other end of the phone.
“All right. I got it. I'll head over right now.”
A smile appeared on Sophie's lips as she hung up the phone.
“Who was that?” Dylan asked curiously. He had never seen such a gentle expression on Sophie's face before.
“My boyfriend. Come on! I'll introduce him to you!” With that, Sophie led Dylan toward the camp commander's office.
“Sophie, don't you dare try to scare me! Are you telling me that your boyfriend is the camp commander? Absolutely not! Although he isn't married yet, he's old enough to be your father.”
Sophie was at a loss for words.
“Captain Green, what a creative imagination you have. When did I ever say that the camp commander is my boyfriend?” She hoped Tristan did not hear what Dylan said.
Tristan and the camp commander were chatting when Sophie and Dylan arrived at the office.
They finished discussing business and made small talk while waiting for Dylan and Sophie.
“Dylan, come and see who's here.”
Dylan was shocked when he saw that it was Tristan. Could he be Sophie's boyfriend?
“Please don't tell me you're Sophie's boyfriend.” Hmm... Indeed. Only someone like Tristan was suited for Sophie.
“That's right. I'm her boyfriend. What's up? Do you have anything against it? Not only am I her boyfriend, but I'm also her fiancé.” Just what kind of tone is he using to talk to me?
“Are you kidding me, Tristan? How can you lay your hands on such a sweet young girl?”
Tristan was speechless.
“Dylan, it's been a while since we fought, right? Let's have a go at it right now.” What does he mean by me touching such a sweet young girl? Am I that old?
