Pursuing Her

“Mr. Sawyer, I think you’re aware that I haven’t actually spent much time on campus throughout my two years here.”

She always had places to be.

“That’s not a problem! You can just come by to do your research whenever you have the time. I have no expectations regarding your attendance.” All he wanted was for her to continue studying here. “You’re a star, Sophie! I don’t want you to enter society too soon. Contribute to research in medicine instead. Your future is limitless.”

Dominic really cherished talented students.

“All right. I’ll think about it.”

The man was exasperated. Everyone wanted to get their hands on someone like Sophie. By now, there would surely be so many other institutions out there trying to get her to choose them.

“Let me know if there’s anything I can help you with. Don’t be shy. It’s an honor to have you as a student here.”

“Thank you, Mr. Sawyer.”

Dominic had always been nice to her.

All of these would take time.

“We’re done here, so let’s go home. Time sure flies by, huh? It feels like I’ve only been here a while, but it’s been two years,” Sophie lamented, having originally come to Jipsdale because of her grandfather.

Now, she wasn’t leaving, and it was also because of him.

Tristan wrapped an arm around her shoulder as they walked out together.

“Yeah. Time does pass quickly. But that’s not exactly the case for me, because I’ve been wanting to take you as my wife ever since the day I met you.”
