“What’s taking you so long? I thought you’d fainted inside the bathroom and was already planning to rescue you!”

“Oh. I’m fine. I was just dealing with some stuff,” Sophie reassured.

“With Butterfly’s case, you mean.”

Tristan knew Sophie’s relationship with Butterfly. Thus, he deduced that Sophie would not turn a blind eye to the situation.

“Mm-hmm. I found the address of the place where I believe she’s being held captive. I still need to get someone to check, though.”

“I’ve found a location too, and I’ve also sent people to investigate,” said Tristan. “Don’t worry! You can entrust me with this case. I won’t let you down.”

Sophie hummed in response.

The sooner they rescued Butterfly, the sooner she no longer had to see Nicholas. Being with Nicholas was as insufferable as hanging out with the devil himself.

Sophie did not doubt Tristan’s abilities. However, there was always a thick tension between Tristan and Nicholas. One wrong move on their side might result in enraging Nicholas.

“All right. Let’s dry your hair first. Otherwise, you might catch a cold!” Tristan coaxed.

Butterfly was not in immediate danger, which means they still had a lot of time. Tristan was confident that she would be found eventually.

Leading Sophie out of the bathroom, he pressed his hands on her shoulder and forced her to take a seat on the bed before patting dry her hair with a towel. Once her hair was no longer dripping with water, Tristan took out a hairdryer and blow-dried her hair.

At that moment, the doorbell sounded.

Tristan went to greet the door. The manager of the hotel had personally delivered their dinner to their room.

“Mr. Tristan, here’s the food you ordered. If there’s anything else that you need, feel free to let us know,” the manager offered courteously.

The manager was well aware of Tristan’s identity and status, which was why he had delivered dinner to the room himself.

“Sure. Bring the trolley inside.” With that being said, Tristan stepped to the side.

Without wasting a moment, the manager and the staff entered the suite and arranged the food on the dining table.

“Enjoy your meal, Mr. Tristan.” Not wanting to intrude on his guests’ space for too long, the manager left with the staff immediately after they served the food.
