William thought Tristan would bring Sophie home since he was so protective of her.

“Didn’t you say you didn’t like her? You want me to bring her here so you can humiliate her?” Tristan snickered.

William took offense at his sarcastic tone.

“Today is my birthday, Tristan. Must you drive me mad?” William’s temper was about to flare.

Tristan responded with a grin. “Of course not, Dad. I want you to live a long life, and I hope everything you wish will come true.”

“Do you mean what you just said? If you do, I want you to break up with Sophie. You can have any woman, but Sophie is not a good match for you. You’re way out of her league,” William uttered. I’ll not allow my son to entertain a woman like Sophie.

“Break up?”

“That’s right. You said you hoped everything I wish would come true, right? So far, life has been treating me well, but the only thing that bothers me is you and Sophie. If you want me to live a happy life, break up with her!”

“I’m afraid that you might not get what you want. It took me a while to win her heart. What makes you think I’ll give her up so easily?” Tristan said. I’ll never let her go.

“You—” William knew convincing Tristan would not be the easiest thing in the world.

Tristan cut in and continued, “You should avoid seeing me since my presence upsets you all the time. By the way, Sophie will be coming later!”

“You—” William was about the explode in rage. He knows I dislike Sophie, yet, he still invited her over. He’s just trying to get on my nerves!

“You have a problem with that? She’s my girlfriend, so she should be here to celebrate your birthday. Isn’t that how things work?” Tristan refused to give in.

“Fine! Do what you want!” William left in a huff.
