Noticing that her boss was still busy, the secretary dared not disturb him further. She had no choice but to leave and close the door behind her.

“You’ll know just how capable I am after we’re married,” Tristan said.

Why is he being such a pervert all of a sudden?

“What are you doing now?” Tristan asked with concern. As Sophie had a theoretical assessment in the morning and a practical test in the afternoon, she couldn’t go home at noon. “How about I come over at noon to have lunch with you?”

“That’s not necessary. Noontime is short, so you should go back and rest properly instead of traveling back and forth.”

“Okay.” Tristan tapped his thigh with one hand, feeling quite unhappy about not being able to see her at noon.

“What’s the matter? If you have something to do, you can get back to work. Sandra and I are going to eat now.”

“All right. Go and have your meal, then.” He didn’t want to delay her lunchtime. “Watch what you eat. You have a sensitive stomach.”

“Okay. I got it. Don’t worry.”

After hanging up the phone, Sophie turned to face the two people beside her. “What’s wrong? Why are you both looking at me like that?”

Sandra said, “It’s just that we’ve never seen you like this before. You must really like Mr. Tristan, right?”

Regardless of their characters, any girl would show their docile side in front of their boyfriend.

“Yes, I like him a lot.” Sophie didn’t feel the need to hide her affection for Tristan because she genuinely loved him.

“I envy you for being able to meet someone you’re so fond of,” Sandra wondered when she could meet the love of her life.

“Don’t envy me. Everyone will meet their special someone; it’s just a matter of time.”

Simon chimed in, “I might not meet someone like that in this lifetime anymore.”

Hearing him say that, Sandra couldn’t help but glance at him.
