Anything For Her

Chapter 185 Lonely Nights“All right.” Charles had nothing else to say, for it seemed like he was really the only one who was wasting his life fooling around.“Ysabelle, what do you think of Charles?”Ysabelle blinked.“Charles? Isn’t he a little too old?” Has he forgotten Charles’ age, or has he forgotten my age?“Okay, Sophie has started performing now, so quiet down.” Why are they being so loud instead of watching the wonderful performance!Charles, Felix, and Sean all fell silent at that.The three of them could only rub their noses awkwardly while looking at Tristan’s solemn expression.The concert began at eight and ended at half-past eleven. Even after the last song, the fans were still glued to their seats, not wanting to leave.“Thank you, everyone,” said Mark, who had always been someone cool and aloof.The Wheelers then bowed and thanked the audience.By then, the fans below the stage had started crying.“That’s insane. Are fans that scary nowadays?”“How is that insane? Every single member in The Wheelers is amazing. They’re worth going crazy for!” Ysabelle instantly defended.“Okay, you guys head back first. I’ll wait here for Sophie.”Tristan did not have the patience to keep hearing them talk nonsense.“Let’s go. It looks like we’re doing nothing but wasting time here,” Sean blinked at the others.Huh, someone doesn’t want us here.“Uncle Tristan, can I wait with you for Sophie?” Ysabelle was still reeling in from the thrill of the concert. She had tons of things to talk to Sophie about, and she really did not want to head back before meeting her.“It’s late, and the concert was four and a half hours long. Do you think that Sophie still has the energy to talk to you?”Being involved in the concert was a tiring job. Moreover, she had not even had the chance to practice the songs before going on stage. There was no way she would not be exhausted by then.“Oh, you’re right. I’ll go back first then. Uncle Tristan, you have to take good care of Sophie.”Ysabelle could only force the words down her throat and leave with Felix.When Felix saw how reluctant Ysabelle was, he grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms so that no one could crash into her.Ysabelle’s face turned bright red at his gesture.“Felix, I can walk by myself.”However, Felix still did not let go of her.“There are too many people here, and the fans are truly fanatics. I’ll let go of you once we get outside.”Since he had said that, she did not insist. If she did, things would become awkward.Thus, Ysabelle had no choice but to let Felix shield her in his arms and walk out of the venue with difficulty amidst the crowd.Meanwhile, after Sophie changed out of her clothes and removed her makeup before she went out, about to look for Tristan.To her surprise, Mark and the others were waiting outside.Sunny’s hands had yet to be treated.“Sophie, your performance was amazing today!” Sunny cried out. Indeed, no matter how much time had passed, Sophie was still the same person as ever—she could perform wonderfully at any time and any place.However, Sophie frowned when she looked at his swollen hand.“Why aren’t you at the hospital?”Didn’t I ask him to look for Arius at the hospital? Why is he so heedless about his condition? Is he planning to never use his hand ever again?“It’s fine. I can go to the hospital tomorrow to get it checked out.” Sunny then scratched his head with his other hand.It had been too long since he caught a glimpse of her performance, so he was reluctant to leave. He wanted to watch her for a little longer, but he ended up watching until the concert ended.“Don’t worry, Sophie. I’ll take him to the hospital tomorrow.” Most doctors are done with their shifts by now. Even if we are popular, we can’t possibly drag the doctors out of their beds, right?“How can you leave this matter until the next day? Don’t you know how important his hand is?” Sophie uttered, her volume was getting louder without her noticing it. Who did this? I have to find out who the culprit is. I’ll never let this matter go.Sunny could not help but feel touched by how she reacted.He had been around Sophie for a year, so, naturally, he knew that underneath her cold exterior was a caring soul.“It’s okay, Sophie. It doesn’t hurt that much. If I go tomorrow, I’ll be able to see a specialist instead.”“We’re going right now! The rest of you should go back. I’ll take Sunny there.”“Sophie!” Sunny cried out, tears welled up in his eyes as he was really touched.“That’s enough. Stop looking at me in that way. Let’s go.” Sunny had already removed his makeup, and once he put on a mask, she was sure that they would not attract unnecessary attention even if they were to go to the hospital.“I’ll come with you.” No matter what, Sophie was still a girl, and it was unsafe for her to be out this late at night. The others were certain that she would not be able to find a specialist at the hospital to give Sunny a checkup. However, Sunny could only give in at her insistence.“It’s fine. My friend is waiting for me outside. I’ll go with him. Sunny, come on!”“Mark, I’ll be leaving now then. Head back and rest earlier. All of you must be tired from the performance. Don’t worry about me. My hand is really fine.”With that said, Sunny went out with Sophie through the back door.Mark was still worried, and he tried to go after them, but his teammates stopped him.“Forget it, Mark. You know how Sophie is. No one can change her mind about the decisions she has made. It’s good that she didn’t let you go. You’re the representative of The Wheelers, and many people know you. If fans recognize you at the hospital, it’ll be a big problem.”Mark knew that the members were right, but he just could not be at ease.After Tristan received Sophie’s call, he drove out. As Sophie and Sunny came out through the VIP lane, not many fans were there to see them.Tristan did not say anything when he saw her exiting with a young man.“This is Sunny—The Wheelers’ drummer. His hand is injured, so we’re taking him to the hospital,” Sophie explained to Tristan before calling Arius.Just as the call went through, Arius’ voice traveled out of the speakers.“Sophie, you’re calling me so late at night. Are you feeling lonely? Do you want me to go and warm your bed?” teased Arius.“Arius, do you still want to go home?” came Tristan’s icy voice.Immediately, Arius hugged himself.This man is so boring! It’s not as if I’ve said anything!“Mr. Tristan, what are you doing? I dare you to lay a finger on me. Let’s see if Sophie’s going to let you off. Sophie and I are really close. She’ll definitely decimate anyone who dares to hurt me!”There’s no way you can threaten me!“Is that so? Then you should ask her who’s the more important person to her—you, or me.” Tristan was very upset. Does everyone I come across have to make a comparison with me? They’re really getting on my nerves.“Sophie, look, he’s bullying me again! Say, who’s more important to you—me or him?” At that moment, Arius looked as if he was going to end both Sophie and his own life if she were to tell him that he was not important to her.“That’s enough. Can you stop with the nonsense? Where are you right now? Are you at the hospital?” Sophie was done entertaining the two childish men.“What’s wrong? Are you hurt, or is it that arrogant Mr. Tristan? I really hope he’s the one who’s hurt.” He’s always trying to steal her away from me! I hope he’s injured in a way that he can’t be treated!
