Pursuing Her

Chapter 169 Irresistible

“In that case, I’ll go back and shower. Call me if there are any problems.” She, too, wanted to shower at home. Regardless of how luxurious the VIP ward was, she didn’t like bathing there.

“All right, go on ahead,” Morgan replied respectfully.

After Tristan returned to Wisteria Apartments with Sophie, he, too, took a bath when Sophie went to take a shower.

Despite spending the last few days in the hospital, he only managed a single quick bath. After all, the conditions at the hospital were considered terrible for someone like him.

When he was done showering, he heated up a glass of milk for Sophie and estimated the time she needed before knocking on her door.

Upon hearing the knock, Sophie opened the door, wrapped only in a towel with her hair still dripping wet.

The wet look and perky bosoms that greeted him felt like a siren song calling out to him.

Tristan, unable to help himself, gulped before feeling embarrassed by his own reaction.

“Have a glass of milk before you sleep. We’ll be going to the hospital again tomorrow.”

When Sophie received the glass from him, she brushed against his warm fingers, causing her to flinch in reflex.

Under such circumstances, it was all too easy for both of them to feel awkward.

“After a grueling few days, you can finally get some proper rest.” Sophie’s gentle voice continued to claw at his heart.

Tristan nodded. “Mmm-hmm. I’ll be next door. Call me if you need anything.”

With that, he came out of her room reluctantly.

Sophie’s gaze trailed his silhouette until he returned to his room before drinking the warm milk he had prepared.

After lying in bed, Sophie slept especially well, probably due to the effects of the milk.

By the time she awoke, it was already three in the morning.

Hunger was what had woken her up. With her stomach growling, she couldn’t help but feel annoyed.

In the end, she decided to get out of bed. The moment she opened the door, Tristan heard her movements, causing him to come out too.
