Pursuing Her

Tristan came out of the shower and found that his wife was already asleep. She was sleeping soundly, in fact. He leaned down and kissed her lovingly on the forehead.

“Are you that tired? Have a good rest.”;

He slipped under the covers, then enveloped her in his embrace.

Sophie remained asleep. She let out a murmur before settling comfortably in his arms and drifting back to a peaceful slumber.

The following day, Sophie made arrangements to visit Cecelia. Tristan decided to accompany her to Cecelia’s residence before parting ways with her.

“Shall I pick you up at noon?”

“It’s fine. I’ll see how Cecelia is doing first. I might have lunch with her.” I haven’t seen her in a while now.

“Okay, then. I won’t disturb you two at noon.” Tristan understood that best friends often had things to discuss, and he didn’t want to be a third wheel. “Call me if you need me.”

“I will.”

“Go inside now. I’ll leave once I see you’re inside.”

“Okay.”

Sophie entered the house. Cecelia resided in a villa that her parents had bought for her, and she had been, living there for a long time. The housekeepers recognized Sophie since she often came to accompany Cecelia, so they quickly opened the door for her.

“Where’s Cecelia?”

“She’s still sleeping! Ms. Tanner, you study medicine, right? Could you please check on her and see if anything’s wrong? We’re not sure if she’s feeling unwell,” the housekeeper said.

“All right.”

Sophie went upstairs directly to Cecelia’s room and found her lying in bed looking pale and exhausted. The latter was a far cry from the glamorous Cecelia she knew.

Seeing Sophie, Cecelia sat up from the bed.

“Why are you here? I thought you had forgotten about me!”
