Pursuing Her
Chapter 856
“Okay then! In that case, I'll still helm Chanaean Medical Association for now. However, you two should think about who'll take my place when the time comes,” stated Barney. Even though so many people desire my position, they still refuse to occupy it. I can't help but feel resigned.
Sophie and Arius exchanged a glance. Neither wanted the position because they only wished to focus on conducting experiments.
They had no interest whatsoever in dealing with the matters in Chanaean Medical Association.
“Honestly, Dr. Smith, I think you should nurture Georgina rather than try to appoint one of us as the next person in charge. She has the potential to do a good job in that position,” Sophie proposed sincerely.
“Georgina, eh? All right, then! Once I return, I'll observe her for a while. If I find her acceptable, I'll do just that.” Once again, Barney sighed. I guess I can't count on either of them to take my place, huh?
As it was already nighttime, and everyone was tired, they each went to find a spot to rest.
Sophie and Tristan sat together after he adjusted her seat to lie flat. Then, he said, “I know it's still early, but you should sleep. Once you wake up, you'll be able to enjoy a delicious Chanaean breakfast.”
He knew she hadn't been eating well in Anglandur, so he had called his subordinates to prepare breakfast before boarding the plane.
“Mhm! You should sleep too,” replied Sophie. He must also be exhausted after protecting us during this period. He deserves a good, long rest, too.
After she lay down, Tristan covered her body with a blanket.
Turning toward him, she lost herself in thoughts. Frankly, he has a face I'll never get sick of staring at. The more time we spend together, the more I like him, so much so that I'm basically addicted to him.
“Are Charles and Bertram still in Fandar? You know, they didn't do anything wrong, so you should let them off,” suggested Sophie. We're heading back, yet they are still stuck in Fandar. I know this is Tristan's matter, but they ended up like that because of me, so I think it's fine if I plead leniency for them.
“I know. We can talk about it after we return,” responded Tristan.
“What's the matter?”
“I'm not happy!”
“Why?” Sophie was confounded. Wasn't he doing okay just a second ago? Why is he suddenly unhappy?
“Because I don't like you paying so much attention to other men!”
That rendered her speechless. I only care about Bertram and Charles because of him! Otherwise, they wouldn't have anything to do with me. What is he thinking?
When her train of thought ended there, Sophie explained, “I just don't want to be the reason your relationship with them sours.”
“I know you're doing this for me, but don't worry. They're my comrades with whom I survived hell and high water together. It's just that there genuinely are matters in Fandar that need to be dealt with, which is why I left them there.” While Tristan was a self-indulgent tyrant, he wouldn't treat his close friends that unkindly.
“I'm aware you're a man who knows what you're doing. There's no way I'd fall in love with a bad man, after all!” flattered Sophie.
In response, Tristan pinched her cheek. “You've gotten thinner lately.” Even though I've been taking personal care of her, she still lost weight. It makes me feel awful.
“Maybe because it's been exhausting lately.”
“In that case, once we return home, rest for half a month. Don't do anything else during that period.”
“Rest for half a month? What am I going to do at home during that time? I'll get bored! Two days of rest is the most I need.”
“Will you still get bored if I'm around?” asked Tristan.
Sophie blinked and refuted, “You still have matters to attend to after we return! You can't stay by my side all day long. Besides, I bet many things are waiting for you to handle in Lombard Group after spending so much time away from the company.” I can't be so selfish as to ask him to keep me company all day long and prevent him from doing what he should.
“It's not an issue,” he replied. I'm the CEO of Lombard Group, am I not? Besides, my subordinates aren't that useless. They don't need me to solve every issue. “All right, stop thinking and rest. I know it's much more difficult to sleep on a plane, but you should still try. Even if you can't fall asleep, you should rest with your eyes closed.”
“Okay.” Thus, Sophie closed her eyes. Even though she thought she couldn't slumber, she did soon after.
Tristan also shut his eyes and rested.
Meanwhile, Ysabelle couldn't sleep.
