“You told your dad that you have a girlfriend?” Sophie asked the moment Tristan hung up the phone.

“He wanted me to come home, but I don’t feel like going home just yet, so I had to play the girlfriend card. Don’t worry since he won’t do anything to you,” Tristan replied confidently with a nod.

Sophie fell speechless when she heard that.

What? I’m not afraid of him hurting me! I just don’t feel like dealing with this stuff just yet!

Noticing the displeased look on Sophie’s face, Arius shot Tristan a fierce glare and said, “You’d better handle those family relationships of yours well, you hear me? If you make Sophie upset, I’ll take her somewhere far, far away! You won’t be able to see her ever again!”

He couldn’t bear to see Sophie get bullied.

“I suggest you leave before I beat you up,” Tristan threatened.

This is between me and Sophie! He has no right to interfere!

Arius waved his fist in the air defiantly as he snapped back at Tristan, “Yeah? With those injuries of yours? I’d like to see you try!” Even if he couldn’t defeat Tristan in a fight, he had other ways of getting back at him.

“That’s enough, Arius! Didn’t you say you have something to do? You should head on back now!”

Sophie knew Arius was just trying to help her out, but she believed it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to butt into her relationship problems with Tristan.

“All right, then. I’ll be leaving now. Let me know if he bullies you, okay? I’m a surgeon. I can stab at him a hundred times, and it still wouldn’t count as murder!”

Tristan shot him an icy-cold glare in response, but Arius ignored him completely and continued chatting with Sophie for a little while longer before leaving.

When it was just the two of them in Wisteria Apartments, Tristan gently hugged Sophie from behind and asked, “Are you unhappy because I told my dad I had a girlfriend?”

“No, I’m not unhappy. I just don’t know how to get along with elderly people,” Sophie replied. Although William was Tristan’s father, he was most certainly old enough to be Sophie’s grandfather.

“You don’t have to worry about a thing. I’ll take care of things with my family, so no one will give you any trouble.”
