“Wrong number,” Sophie replied, lying through her teeth.

Nicholas doesn’t know when to give up, does he? Or perhaps he didn’t learn his lesson from last time?

Tristan had a feeling that she was not telling the truth.

However, he decided not to probe further this time. If Sophie refused to answer him, he would not ask any more questions.

Sophie stared at his back as guilt filled her heart.

There was nothing between her and Nicholas. She did not tell Tristan because she did not want him to worry.

However, he seemed down in the dumps because of the call.

“Are you all right?” Sophie asked tentatively. She did not wish for Tristan to get angry or upset.

After returning from the hot spring resort, Sophie immediately called Nicholas.

Nicholas’ lips curled up into a smirk when he saw the familiar number.

“Sophie, aren’t you being too mean? If I don’t call you, you’ll never call me first, won’t you? Are you going to forget about me?”

Having not heard Sophie’s voice for so long, he truly missed her.

“I miss you so much. Should I come to Jipsdale to visit you?”

Nicholas seemed to have forgotten about what had happened in the past. Like someone who had been parted from his lover for a long time, he wanted to fly over to her side.

“Nicholas, haven’t you learned your lesson? I’ve warned you to stay out of my life. I will never like you.”

“Why not? I met you first. How could you fall in love with someone else? Do you know you’re breaking my heart?” Nicholas uttered hysterically.

I was the one who met her first. How can another man steal her heart before I do?

“Nicholas, are you certain you’re not sick in the head? If you are, you can go to the hospital. Stop spouting nonsense at me!” Sophie raged. Nicholas was an important person. She could not afford to get rid of him.
