“So?” She wasn’t afraid.

“Anglandur’s always been interested in talents like you. They’ll definitely come looking for you and try to make you stay. If you refuse, they might not let you leave so easily.” Anglandurns could come up with every excuse imaginable.

“Ha.”

Sophie scoffed. If she wanted to leave, no one could ever get in her way.

“I understand. It’s getting late, so you should go back and get some rest. Whatever it is, we can talk about it tomorrow.”

It wasn’t wise to cross her.

“Okay. Don’t stay up too late or spend too much time on the phone. The radiation’s not good for you,” Arius reminded, aware that Tristan would surely call her.

“Got it.”

Expectedly, Tristan’s phone call came the moment Arius left. Judging from how the former’s hair was still wet, he must have just gotten out of the shower.

“Why didn’t you dry your hair? You’ll catch a cold easily,” Sophie couldn’t help but nag.

The heater kept his room warm, but he could still get sick easily.

“It’s fine.”

Tristan put his phone aside and began drying his hair with a towel.

“Have you had dinner?”

“Yup.”

Sophie watched the man who had just taken his shower wipe his hair with the towel. He really is gorgeous.

Tristan had nothing but a robe on, and the sash appeared to have been tied around his waist with minimal effort. Despite the simplicity, she couldn’t take her eyes off him.

It didn’t take long for the man’s short hair to stop dripping beads of water.

“What’s wrong? What are you thinking about?” Seeing her remain silent, Tristan tossed his towel aside.

“Nothing. I just can’t believe such a handsome man like you exists.” The woman’s lips curved.

“Don’t try to charm me, Sophie. You’re so far away from me right now. If you keep this up, I might not be able to resist going over to you.”

Sophie’s smile widened.

“Okay, then. Come on over!”

“Hmph. You know it’d be dawn by the time I get there, missy.”
