Pursuing Her

Chapter 741

Right after Sophie returned to the mansion, she received a call from Butterfly.

“I found Nicholas' whereabouts. Do you have a plan?” Butterfly asked. Nicholas will unquestionably pay a heavy price for his transgression.

“Send the coordinates to me,” ordered Sophie.

In response, Butterfly frowned. In the past, I wouldn't have thought twice about letting her go alone. However, her leg is still recovering, and Nicholas is a mighty opponent. It won't be a wise decision if she charges head-first into his lair.

“If you have a plan, you can share it with me, Sophie. We can do this together.”

I may not be as capable as her, but if we tackle this problem together, we can look out for each other.

Shaking her head, Sophie denied, “You leave this matter to me, Butterfly. This is between him and me.” There's no way I'll forgive him after he came here to orchestrate that accident. Regardless of the price I have to pay, I will take him down.

Her attitude ticked off Butterfly. “Have you forgotten our relationship, Sophie? If not for you back then, I would've been dead. So please, don't say such a thing to me. No matter what plan you have in mind, you can tell me about it. I'll cooperate.” It hasn't been easy for her to find someone she loves and who treats her well. I don't want her happy life to be jeopardized. After all, happiness is hard to come by, and I sincerely hope she'll be happy forever.

“Fine! Send the coordinates to me first. If I have any plan, I'll let you know.”

“Okay.” While Butterfly was still worried, she was always obedient to Sophie, so she sent the coordinates.

“It's getting late. You should rest early, too.” Upon ending her sentence, Sophie hung up the call.

Moments later, she received Nicholas' location.

After Tristan finished showering, he saw her spacing out in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He strolled toward her and hugged her from behind. “What are you thinking about? Why aren't you asleep yet? You must be tired after so many things happened today. It may be difficult, but try emptying your mind and go to sleep. I promise Nicholas won't have a chance to hurt our family again.”

Sophie responded with an absentminded hum.

Sweeping her into his arms, he strode into the room, put her on the bed, and tucked her in. “I know what you're worrying about, Sophie. I swear that something like the accident won't occur again. You can relax.” After all, I'm going to take care of him. The only thing she needs to do now is focus on becoming my bride.

“Let's kill Nicholas, Tristan!” she exclaimed. If his existence is a threat to us, we should just murder him! Otherwise, he'll keep threatening our lives.

Her abrupt, straightforward statement shocked Tristan.

Still, he nodded. I agree. Since Nicholas refuses to let us go, there's no need for us to hold back. I'm sick of playing games with him, anyway. “I'll come up with a plan. Your leg is still recovering, so I'll handle this. You'll trust me, right?” It's better if I plan the murder because it'll be challenging to slay someone like Nicholas.

“We'll do it together,” stated Sophie firmly. We've never done something like this together before.

Instead of rejecting her request, Tristan said, “Sure. Now, let's sleep!” I know she'll argue with me if I disagree.

“Okay.”

After a while, Sophie's voice rang in the room again. “I can't sleep.” I'm not feeling drowsy at all.

Thus, Tristan removed his shoes, lay on the bed, and pulled her into his embrace. “I'll sleep with you!”

“Mhm!”

With his company, she was able to enter her slumber quickly.

When he saw how soundly she was sleeping, he released a sigh of relief and kissed her forehead. For so many years, she was used to taking care of everything by herself. That's why I think she wants to solve this problem by herself, too. However, she has me now, so there's no way I'll let her do this alone. Nicholas is our common enemy, and I'll never forgive him. He was fortunate when he survived last time, but he's not getting lucky twice. In any case, hugging her feels so good. I should return to my room right now, but I don't want to. F*ck it. I'm just going to stay here for this night and keep her company.

The next morning, Tristan asked the housekeepers to prepare breakfast before heading to the hospital with Sophie.
