Chapter 368
After all the time I've waited, Sophie is finally in my territory.
It was a wonderful opportunity for Nicholas.
Previously, he didn't do well in Jipsdale. However, at long last, she was in his sphere of influence.
Thus, he was going to do everything he could to prevent her from leaving, no matter what.
He wanted her to stay with him forever.
Suddenly, the word “forever” sounded very romantic to him.
Nicholas had come to a realization. As long as she was willing to stay, he would give her everything she wanted
willingly, even marriage.
Alex suggested, “I'll take care of the arrangements at Norham, Boss. I don't think you should go. If Old Mr. Sable
finds out—”
“I'm warning you, Alex. You better not tell my dad anything. Right now, you're working for me. Don't forget that. If
you can't even keep that in mind, get out of my face.” Nicholas had been very dissatisfied with Alex's performance
lately.
In the end, Alex shut up.
Indeed, Javier was the one who instructed Alex to monitor Nicholas by working for him.
It was a difficult task, but there was nothing Alex could do about it.
Then again, everyone in the world had their own difficulties as they tried to go about their lives.
However, he believed he would probably die at the hands of Javier and Nicholas.
When Tristan's plane landed at Norham's international airport, it was raining. The weather in the city hadn't been
pleasant lately.
Soon after he descended from the plane, he speedily took off his coat and put it on Sophie because she mentioned
she was feeling cold.
She protested, “You don't need to—”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Just wear it!”
A staff member approached them with umbrellas. Tristan grabbed one, opened it, and escorted her out of the
airport.
Felix grabbed one, too. Is Mr. Tristan doing this on purpose? There are still more umbrellas to be used! There's no
need for the two of them to share one together. Doesn't that make it easier for the rain to splash on them? I
wonder what he's thinking. Is that what people in love are like? Trying to stay with each other at all times?
Whatever, it's none of my business.
Then he opened his umbrella and followed behind them from a distance because he didn't want to be tortured
again.
Outside of the airport, there was already a car waiting for them. Tristan escorted Sophie to the vehicle, opened the
door for her, and sent her in. After that, he shut his umbrella and entered the car.
Felix followed in, too. “Are we going to the hotel first, Mr. Tristan?”
“No. Since Sophie's with us, I've already asked for the Norham mansion to be cleaned. We'll be staying there. As
comfortable as a hotel may be, it can't beat living at one's own home.”
“Okay, then!” During their previous visits, they would only stay in a hotel instead of the mansion, even when their
visit lasted for a week.
Despite their current trip only being two days long, Tristan had already asked for the rooms to be cleaned.
How he treats her is so different from me, Felix lamented.
Sophie interjected, “Mr. Tristan, there's no need—”
“Relax! It's not just because of you. I just think it's not convenient staying at a hotel this time.” His explanation was
meant to alleviate any burden she felt.
Additionally, she also needed to revise for her exams, even in Norham.
“All right, then,” she replied. Well, he had already made the arrangements. There's no point in me rejecting his plan
now. It's best if I just refrain from saying anything.
The two cars headed straight for Tristan's mansion in Norham.
When they arrived, more than a dozen housekeepers and bodyguards stood on both sides of the path leading to the
building.
The number of bodyguards didn't put Sophie's worries to rest. Nicholas knows Tristan's coming. There's no way he'll
let it slide. Even worse, Anglandur is Nicholas' territory. It'll be too easy for him to annihilate someone here. I don't
think these many bodyguards are enough!
“What's wrong?” Tristan approached her and held her waist when he noticed she was blanking out.
His voice snapped her out of her thoughts, and she shook her head. “I'm fine! It's possible that I'm just a bit tired.
The flight lasted for hours, after all.”
“Mhm. You should take a bath, eat food, and sleep.” Naturally, his heart ached after he heard her mention she was
tired.
After Tristan introduced Sophie to the butler, Micah Brown, he brought her to the master bedroom upstairs.
“Go and take a shower. I've already asked others to prepare clothes for you. After your bath's over, we'll have a
meal together. Then, you just need to rest here. I'll accompany you for a stroll once I return tonight.” He felt
apologetic about not being able to stay by her side.
“I think I'll only take a bath. You two need to head to the company in a bit, right? I'll join you! I want to see the
world, too.” Regardless of what he said, she was too fretted about his safety to leave his side.
As Tristan pinched her cheek, his concern for her grew. “What's the matter? You've been acting odd this time. You
can tell me what's on your mind, you know?”
“I'm fine! Don't overthink things.”
“Mhm. Go and shower now. I have things to discuss with Felix.” They came to Norham for work, after all, so it was
only natural he was pretty busy.
“Okay!”
After Tristan exited the room, Sophie pulled out her phone and logged in to a hidden account before contacting her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfriends in Anglandur.
Someone wrote: So, you're finally willing to visit Anglandur, Phantom.
Another asked: Yeah! Tell us why you're in Anglandur, Phantom. Is there something you need us to help you with?
She couldn't help but chuckle at the people getting excited in her chat window. Then she replied: Yes, there is
something I need your help with.
That account of hers had remained inactive for quite some time.
Her worry for Tristan was the thing that pushed her to reactivate it.
One of the people wrote: Tell us what you need!
That was followed by another message: Yeah! As long as you ask for it, I'll even be willing to assassinate the
president of Anglandur!
Sophie responded: It's nothing that outrageous. Why would I desire the death of the president? I just need you all to
protect someone for me.
Someone replied: Consider it done! What's your relationship with this person? I've never seen you care so much
about another individual before.
Sophie wrote: It's someone I like who's totally devoted to me. Sophie felt merry when speaking about Tristan.
One of the people replied: What? You already have someone you like? Doesn't that mean I don't have a chance
anymore?
Another chat member retorted: When did you ever have a chance? You never had that opportunity, to begin with,
okay?
Reading the messages, Sophie messaged: All right, that's enough. I'm sending the information to you lot now. I'll
treat you all to a meal when there's a chance. A file on Tristan was then uploaded from Sophie's phone to the chat.
Someone argued: What do you mean by “when there's a chance?” Your visit to Anglandur this time is the best
opportunity for us to share a meal together.
Sophie: Maybe next time. I still have matters to attend to. She didn't want to leave Tristan's side.
Another person replied: Don't ignore us for your boyfriend, Phantom. He's just a man. There's no need for you to
follow him around the clock. Besides, he's useless! Otherwise, he won't need you to protect him.
