“No,” Sophie quickly replied. Is he joking? I can’t let him meet Nicholas. Besides, Nicholas isn’t even technically my friend.

Hearing that, Tristan told her, “Then I will stay with you as you rest at home.” They were heading back tomorrow, so he initially planned to bring her around today.

Alas, the weather was so bad that they had to stay at home.

“This trip is too rushed, so I don’t have time to bring you out to have some fun. The weather isn’t cooperating, too. Next time, then. We can go on a holiday after your university entrance exam ends,” he added.

We can go anywhere as long as she gets to relax.

Sophie nodded and got him a piece of pork rib.

“Eat up!”

After lunch, they spent half an hour in the living room before Tristan brought Sophie to her bedroom.

“Take a nap,” Sophie told Tristan.

She woke up late today, so she wasn’t sleepy at this hour.

“Sleep with me,” Tristan implored as he took her hand.

“But I’m not sleepy at all. I want to read for a while,” Sophie protested. She had said everything in her mind to Nicholas, but she wasn’t sure what he would do next.

Thus, the only way out was to be fully prepared.

No matter what Nicholas’ plan was, she would never give in to him.

It was a difficult thing to achieve in Anglandur, but it wasn’t entirely impossible.

Right then, Felix’s call arrived.

Something important must’ve happened for him to call Tristan at this hour.

Thus, Tristan answered the call in front of Sophie. “What is it?”

“Mr. Tristan, guess who the person who attacked you sneakily was? I don’t think you’ll be able to guess the person’s identity, though,” Felix declared.

“Just go straight to the topic,” Tristan ordered, as he disliked guessing games. Felix knows I cannot guess the person’s identity, so why does he even bother asking me the question?

“Nicholas Sable,” Felix revealed.
