“Come on. I’ve made arrangements for it already. I’m sure you’re hungry since you just got off the plane,” Nicholas gently said.

At the thought of Butterfly, Sophie nodded and agreed to it. After all, it was just a meal.

“I’ll come with you,” Tristan said. There was no way he was going to let her have a meal with Nicholas alone.

“Me too.” Like Tristan, Arius did not want Sophie to go alone. They were up against the lunatic Nicholas, and they were not going to watch Sophie enter the wolf’s den by herself.

Nicholas was speechless.

What is wrong with them? Why are they so adamant about being the third wheels? Is it exciting for them?

“But I don’t want to eat with you. Seeing you makes me lose my appetite,” Nicholas bluntly told them.

Then, he walked over to open the car door before inviting Sophie into the car.

Arius took a deep breath.

“Who do you think you are, Nicholas? Do you think we can stand the sight of you too?”

Meanwhile, Tristan was close to lunging over and breaking Nicholas’ neck there and then.

Nevertheless, the thought of the captive Butterfly halted him from executing his plan.

“Don’t worry. He wouldn’t dare to do anything to me even if I’m going there alone.”

Sophie had a gun. If Nicholas were to do something foolish, she was going to whip it out and shoot him dead.

“Okay.”

If they were in a different situation, Tristan would not have agreed to it. Alas, Butterfly was someone important to Sophie.

Before they found Butterfly, he could not do anything impulsive.
