Old Mr. Sable already knows Sophie’s here, and he had asked me to do something, too. I can’t help but feel helpless getting stuck between this pair of father and son. No matter who I offend, I’m done either way. Alex lamented in his mind.

At seven in the evening, Tristan brought Sophie to his branch company in Norham.

Before they left, Micah provided a bottle of hot water to Sophie.

“Drink some hot water on your way there, Ms. Tanner. The weather here is quite cold!” he advised.

Anything related to Tristan was something he cared deeply about because he had been taking care of his employer’s life in Norham.

“Thank you.” Sophie had a lot of respect for the old butler. As long as the elderly she interacted with weren’t particularly difficult to handle, she would treat them with deference.

Micah opened the car door, waited for the couple to enter the vehicle, and closed it.

Earlier, what he really meant was that she should stay and rest properly.

However, it wasn’t like he couldn’t understand youngsters’ desire to stay close to their lovers all the time. Besides, that was a sign the couple had a healthy, intimate relationship.

That was why he didn’t voice any opinion about it.

“I’ll be leaving Mr. Tristan in your care, Mr. Northley. Be careful!” the butler reminded as Norham was very different from Jipsdale.

“You’re not a spring chicken anymore, Micah! You should head back to rest. There’s no need for you to fuss about us. With me around, no one can harm Mr. Tristan,” Felix assured. What’s going on with everybody during this trip? It’s not like we don’t have a footing here.

As the car drove to their destination, Tristan held Sophie’s icy hand.

“Are you feeling cold?” he asked. Rainy weather was a common occurrence in Norham. Thus, the temperature in the city was pretty low.

“I’m okay!” she replied.
