“All right, it’s getting late. Let’s go back and take a rest!” Tristan said to the others. They must be exhausted since they’d been accompanying Sophie for the last two days.

“But Uncle Tristan, I—” As Sophie’s best friend, Ysabelle just wanted to stay by her side.

Before she could finish her sentence, Felix pulled her back. “I know you’re worried about Sophie, but Mr. Tristan is here to keep her company. I’m sure he’ll take good care of her, so don’t worry.”

He knew Tristan just wanted to stay with Sophie and did not want others to interrupt them at this point.

“But I—” At first, Ysabelle hesitated to leave, but she eventually gave up and bobbed her head in response. “All right, we’ll go home now.”

She did feel tired as she had not slept a wink for two nights.

They then got into their cars respectively. Sophie shut her eyes and took a nap right away. She had to get enough rest as she would need to make the final arrangement at Central Hospital the next day.

No matter how upset she was, Sophie knew she had to pull herself together from tomorrow onward.

Instead of sending her back to her condominium, Tristan brought her to his mansion since there were housekeepers who could look after her.

Sophie had no issue with the arrangement.

When the car arrived safely in front of Caraxes Mansion, Tristan opened the door and carried Sophie in his arms. Instead of stopping him from doing so, she wrapped her hands around his neck and leaned against his chest.

Tristan straight away carried her to his room, put her down on his bed, and whispered, “Would you like to take a bath? I’ll prepare warm water for you, okay?”

Sophie lifted her head to look at the man who did everything cautiously to make her feel better.

“I’m fine, Tristan, don’t worry about me. I’m just a little upset. I’ll be all right once I get a hold of myself.” Her voice still sounded hoarse.
