Pursuing Her

Chapter 136 Irresistible Passion

“Why aren’t you going in?” Sophie approached him and asked softly.

“You’re finally home.” The one who was authoritative, high, and mighty seemed so pitiful at that instant.

Tristan stretched out his right arm and pulled her into his embrace. He hugged her by the waist with another arm and rested his forehead on hers.

Sophie’s heart skipped a beat upon his sudden action.

How long has he been standing here? Why are his body and breath so cold?

“Mr. Tristan⁠—”

As soon as her words fell, the man moved and pinned her to the wall. Then, he began to kiss her.

His kiss was swift and somewhat aggressive, to the extent that Sophie felt a stinging pain on her lips. Gradually, he slowed things down and kissed her gently.

Then, he stopped and hugged her quietly.

If only she was older… He had to fight the desire from within to dismiss the thought of launching a series of amorous advances toward her.

He wanted to let her know how much he cared for her so badly.

“Shall we go in now? It’s cold out here.” The winter in Jipsdale was freezing cold even though it was just the beginning of the season.

He touched her hands and felt the cold. Immediately, he covered both her palms with his and strode toward the apartment.

Upon scanning his thumbprint, the door unlocked itself, and the heater was also automatically switched on.

Sophie was a bit surprised that he was so quick to act and seemed very familiar with it.

“What’s wrong? Still feeling cold?” Tristan frowned as he seated her on his lap.

The ambiguous position made Sophie blush.

“Mr. Tristan, I—”

Without paying heed to what she was saying, he kept her locked in his arms as if she was his most treasured prize.
