Charles was dumbfounded.

If word got out that I was competing against a young lady, wouldn’t my reputation be ruined?

“Sophie, I’m sorry. I don’t want to fight you. Please give me a pass!”

“Mr. Quigley, what’s the meaning of this? Are you underestimating me?” If that’s the case, the more the reason to go through with the challenge.

Charles gave Tristan a pleading look.

Mr. Tristan, can you rein in your girlfriend, please? Look at how intimidating she is! Is it necessary for her to go so far?

“Sophie, I’m not underestimating you at all! Aren’t we in a hospital? It’s inappropriate to have a contest here. Let’s do it some other time.”

“Fine. We’ll settle this challenge once Mr. Tristan is discharged.”

The man was rendered speechless.

With that, Charles slipped away with Sean.

No sooner had he emerged from the ward than he heaved a sigh of relief.

“Sean, what sort of woman is Mr. Tristan’s girlfriend? Why does she want to challenge a man to a fight?” Is such aggression really necessary?

Sean peeled his hand away.

“That’s what you get for running your mouth!”

He obviously deserves it.

Charles was stumped.

Is this what friends are for? It’s one thing if he doesn’t help, but why does he have to kick me when I’m down?

When they arrived at Felix’s room, they were greeted by an unwelcoming expression.

“Sheesh, Felix. Despite our exhaustion, we still took time out to visit both of you. In the end, all you and Mr. Tristan have given us is that unwelcoming look. Don’t you think you’re being too much?”
