Pursuing Her

Chapter 745

“Tsk. Sophie, do you honestly see me as such a person? Is it really necessary?” If he were to succumb to love, it would be for an eternity.

“That's good.” After hearing a satisfactory response, Sophie did not speak further.

She began concentrating on the experiment, no longer paying heed to him.

Seeing how focused she was, Arius left Sophie alone and went to work on his own experiments.

That evening, Tristan came to pick her up and discovered she was leaving for Anglandur tomorrow.

Unfortunately, Lombard Group had an important meeting tomorrow, so Tristan could not accompany her.

However, now that Nicholas had his eyes on her, Tristan was even more worried about letting her go to Anglandur alone.

“Can't you go a little later? If you can push back the schedule, I will be able to go with you,” Tristan said.

The meeting tomorrow was really important, and Felix and the others couldn't go on his behalf. Hence, Tristan had to attend it himself.

“You don't have to come with me. I can handle it myself. Don't worry!” replied Sophie.

She was merely acting in an abundance of caution. Even if Nicholas did show up, she would be able to handle the situation.

“No, I don't want to take any risks right now! Even if there is only a one percent chance of it happening, I will not allow it.”

The last incident had traumatized him.

Sophie hooked her arms around his neck and kissed him. “Didn't I tell you? That kind of thing will not happen again.”

Tristan was thinking about how to come up with a perfect plan. “Tell Barney we'll leave in the afternoon, and we can go on our plane.”

Tristan had a private plane, and if it was only a bit later, there shouldn't be any problems with Anglandur.

“Tristan! If we're together, I'll only be a burden to you, and I don't want to see that happen! Do you get it?” replied Sophie.

They were two independent and separate people. No matter how close they were, they still needed to manage their own affairs.


Tristan leaned over and kissed her on the forehead.

“You're not a burden! I just don't want to take any risks. I don't want to lose you.”

“You won't lose me. The last time was just an accident! Even if Nicholas appears before me, I will find my way out of there.”

The only reason things had turned out the way they did last time was because she was seriously injured.

Regardless, Tristan didn't want to compromise.

He was adamant about going with her.

Sophie planted a soft kiss on his Adam's apple, a gesture that always made Tristan tremble with desire. She loved his Adam's apple, finding it particularly sexy and irresistible.

Tristan had noticed it as well. Many times, Sophie would irresistibly kiss him on the same spot over and over again.

Embracing her tightly, he kissed her passionately for a long time before finally releasing her.

“I'll send a few more of my men to follow you. Do not refuse my offer. Only then will I be able to put my mind at ease,” Tristan said, his anxious tone belaying his deep concern for her safety.

That was already his biggest concession.

Sophie nodded in agreement. “Okay, fine. That works for me.”

After all, she had been followed everywhere for the past few days.

“You're a very stubborn girl. I really have no idea what to do with you,” Tristan teased, his voice tinged with amusement. Sophie had always been an opinionated woman.

Her lips curved into a playful smile. “It's only because you're obsessed with me!” she retorted, knowing full well that his unwavering love was the reason behind his unprincipled concessions.

“Yes, I'm obsessed with you, and I cannot lose you,” Tristan replied. Never in his mind did he expect to love someone so deeply.

Tristan and Sophie were completely immersed in their love, and their intense passion for each other drove them closer together.

Meanwhile, Nicholas was drinking his whiskey alone in a hotel room.

Recently, he had stopped drinking wine and switched to whiskey exclusively.

Only whiskey could alleviate the pain in his heart.

Richard sighed as he observed his boss' state.

Men trapped by love were truly pitiful creatures.

Men like Nicholas, who wielded supreme power and privilege, had already reached the pinnacle that others could only dream of from birth.

Yet, there was one woman in this world who remained forever out of his grasp. It was Sophie.

It was precisely because he couldn't have her that he couldn't forget her; such was the nature of men.

If they possessed something, they might not cherish it. However, they would spend a lifetime longing for it if they couldn't have it.

Men were really cheap.

“Boss, we need to go back now,” Richard urged. There was a problem in Anglandur, and they needed to return immediately.

“Very well. Let's go,” replied Nicholas.

It was mandatory for him to return to Anglandur.
