The moment Felix saw her coming in, he immediately asked, “We can eat now, right? I’m starving! It’s almost two in the afternoon!” “Are you really hungry?” Sophie looked troubled. Since I’ve invited Eustace to join us, will it be a good idea if I let them eat first? “What do you mean? Are you saying we can’t eat yet? Everyone’s here already!” “Can you wait ten more minutes? There’s one more person coming.” Sophie was embarrassed. “But if you’re really hungry, we can just eat first.”

At worst, I’ll just treat Eustace to a meal when he arrives. “Who is it?” Tristan was only curious about that. Why is someone else joining us after she received a call? “It’s Eustace. I think you two should know him. He wanted to meet up with me, saying he has something to discuss with me, so I invited him over. You two don’t mind, right?” Sophie assumed that men should be fine with matters like that. “I mind! A lot!” Hearing that news made Felix grumpy. Couldn’t he have come earlier? Now we have to wait for him while I’m starving! “Then we’ll wait for him,” Tristan decided. It’s just a meal. It’s fine if we wait. That rendered Felix speechless. Mr. Tristan always listens to what Sophie says now. Is he really still the fierce and decisive Mr. Tristan I know? Where did that version of him go? When Eustace arrived at the location Sophie mentioned, he was surprised to learn there were other people in the private room. While Tristan and Felix knew him, he had never met them before.

After all, they didn’t belong to the same social circle. However, he could tell at a glance that Tristan wasn’t an ordinary person. Seeing that Eustace had arrived, Sophie stood up and gestured for him to sit. “I don’t think I need to introduce you to them, right, Eustace? You all should be familiar with each other. This is Tristan, and that’s Felix!” Many people had heard of Tristan’s name before, but only a few had met him. Since no one dared to publish his photos, not a lot of people could recognize him. “That Mr. Tristan from Jipsdale?” That was the only person Eustace could think of when he heard the name and saw Tristan’s demeanor. Sophie nodded. “All right, let’s eat!” By that point, she, too, was feeling pretty hungry. I don’t know why he just had to pick this time to meet me.

me about, Captain Sheppard. What is it?” He should be in a hurry to return to Jipsdale right now, right? After all, he still has his mission of transporting S back to Jipsdale. Staring at the silent Tristan, Eustace swallowed the words he wanted to say. Seeing him acting like that, Felix couldn’t help but exclaim, “You’re not here to confess, are you, Captain Sheppard?” He looks so hesitant to speak! How can it be anything else but a confession? The moment he said that, Tristan glared at him. Don’t be such a busybody! Felix promptly slapped his mouth. Why did I say that without thinking? Stupid mouth! Why can’t I just stay silent

the room, Sophie and Tristan fought for the bill. “This is basically my territory. Allow me,” Sophie said. Instead of arguing with her, Tristan let her do just that. “I’ll be going back now, Sophie. Call me when you return to Jipsdale. I really have something important I need your help with!” With that, Eustace got into the car and left.
