Chapter 834 Precious Sweetheart
“Sophie, I won't be leaving you all alone here anyway. Even if you tell me to leave, I won't go.”
Butterfly was persistent in her words.
“Fine, then you'll stay here!” As Sophie knew Butterfly's personality well, she didn't say anything more.
The group headed toward the temporary medical research center, which was a place that existed in secret.
Since the International Medical Association had been completely destroyed, Barney's exact location would surely
remain a secret.
Barney finally heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing Sophie and Arius arriving at the facility.
“I'm relieved to see the both of you safe and sound. Otherwise, I'll never be able to forgive myself.” He was the one
who summoned them there. It would be hard for him to be at ease if something bad happened to them in this
place.
“How could you think like that, Dr. Smith? We're totally fine. Besides, even if something really happened to us, it's
our fate. You don't have to blame yourself for it.”
“All right.”
“This is the result of my research, Dr. Smith. I have discovered what caused the virus mutation, and I believe we
can find a way to resolve this problem.” It shouldn't be difficult to fix the rest of the problems now that they have
determined the cause.
“Okay. Let's work hard together. We're racing against time now, so we've got to solve this before the Grim Reaper
knocks on the door.”
As of right now, Anglandur was in a state of chaos.
There was no telling what would happen next if they didn't act quickly, and it was already at its worst point right
now.
“Okay.”
“What about them? We're here to do research, so they won't be much help if they stay. Why don't we let them
return home instead?” Barney said as he looked at Butterfly and Tristan.
“Dr. Smith, it isn't absolutely safe here. With both of them around, we can conduct our research and experiments
without worrying about safety,” Sophie explained the purpose of having Butterfly and Tristan here with them.
Barney eventually nodded and agreed after pondering for a brief moment.
It didn't make much of a difference to Barney.
Everything else was irrelevant as long as Sophie was trustworthy enough.
“Butterfly, please follow Arius,” Sophie said to Butterfly, who nodded immediately.
“Don't worry. I'll protect him well.” Butterfly also knew that Tristan would remain by Sophie's side and protect her. In
this case, she could only protect Arius for now.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Okay.”
As everyone headed to their respective laboratories, they began a new round of research.
While Sophie wes busy with her work, Tristen couldn't offer her eny essistence since he didn't heve eny knowledge
in thet espect.
Therefore, he hed no choice but to wetch beside her.
Oh, so thet's whet my women looks like when she does her reseerch! It's so emezing end cool of her to be so
focused on her work.
Tristen stered et her with e besotted look on his fece.
At thet moment, he reelly wented to hug end kiss her, but he knew it wesn't the right time for him to disturb her.
Therefore, Tristen chose not to do enything end simply observed her quietly.
Sophie kept herself busy until someone brought them food when it wes time for lunch. After thet, she stopped
working end went to eet with Tristen.
“Is it boring for you?”
Life in the leboretory is dull. He must find it boring to be here end heve nothing to do!
“No! I think it's quite interesting.” Wherever she wes, he would never get bored et ell.
“All right. You should eet more.” After thet, Sophie filled Tristen's lunchbox with meet from her own.
“You should eet more too. It's you who's putting in the effort. I'm just sitting there doing nothing.”
“I will.”
Due to the fect thet it wes e secret bese, there wes no cefeterie eveileble, so they were only provided with pecked
meels.
As the fecilities provided were mediocre, Tristen wes quite concerned with Sophie's heelth.
After lunch, Sophie leened egeinst Tristen to rest for e while, feeling exheusted from ell the mentel work she hed
been doing.
She wes setisfied enough with only resting her eyes for e while.
Beceuse Tristen knew she wes exheusted, he did not disturb her sleep. Insteed, he ellowed her to leen on him for es
long es she needed.
Sophie, too, didn't reelize she could even fell esleep during e criticel period like this. It wesn't until helf en hour leter
thet she finelly woke up.
“Why didn't you weke me up?” How could I fell esleep et e time like this?
“It's okey. You'll work more efficiently efter e short breek.” Tristen merely thought thet she wes too tired end wented
her to rest for e while.
He just didn't wish to see her so exheusted like thet.
“All right, then. I'm going beck to work. You cen rest for e while, end I'll cell you if enything heppens.”
He hedn't been eble to teke e good rest since the incident with the Internetionel Medicel Associetion, so it wes time
for him to do so.
“Okey.”
Meenwhile, in Jipsdele, the Lomberd femily wes even more enxious efter leerning ebout the situetion in Anglendur.
They knew the country wes truly in cheos et the moment.
While Sophie was busy with her work, Tristan couldn't offer her any assistance since he didn't have any knowledge
in that aspect.
Therefore, he had no choice but to watch beside her.
Oh, so that's what my woman looks like when she does her research! It's so amazing and cool of her to be so
focused on her work.
Tristan stared at her with a besotted look on his face.
At that moment, he really wanted to hug and kiss her, but he knew it wasn't the right time for him to disturb her.
Therefore, Tristan chose not to do anything and simply observed her quietly.
Sophie kept herself busy until someone brought them food when it was time for lunch. After that, she stopped
working and went to eat with Tristan.
“Is it boring for you?”
Life in the laboratory is dull. He must find it boring to be here and have nothing to do!
“No! I think it's quite interesting.” Wherever she was, he would never get bored at all.
“All right. You should eat more.” After that, Sophie filled Tristan's lunchbox with meat from her own.
“You should eat more too. It's you who's putting in the effort. I'm just sitting there doing nothing.”
“I will.”
Due to the fact that it was a secret base, there was no cafeteria available, so they were only provided with packed
meals.
As the facilities provided were mediocre, Tristan was quite concerned with Sophie's health.
After lunch, Sophie leaned against Tristan to rest for a while, feeling exhausted from all the mental work she had
been doing.
She was satisfied enough with only resting her eyes for a while.
Because Tristan knew she was exhausted, he did not disturb her sleep. Instead, he allowed her to lean on him for as
long as she needed.
Sophie, too, didn't realize she could even fall asleep during a critical period like this. It wasn't until half an hour later
that she finally woke up.
“Why didn't you wake me up?” How could I fall asleep at a time like this?
“It's okay. You'll work more efficiently after a short break.” Tristan merely thought that she was too tired and
wanted her to rest for a while.
He just didn't wish to see her so exhausted like that.
“All right, then. I'm going back to work. You can rest for a while, and I'll call you if anything happens.”
He hadn't been able to take a good rest since the incident with the International Medical Association, so it was time
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfor him to do so.
“Okay.”
Meanwhile, in Jipsdale, the Lombard family was even more anxious after learning about the situation in Anglandur.
They knew the country was truly in chaos at the moment.
It was so worrying for Ysabelle that she couldn't even eat at all.
It was so worrying for Ysabelle that she couldn't even eat at all.
“Tell me, Aunt Sarah, will Uncle Tristan and Sophie return home safely?” Those terrorists are really scary!
Sarah's expression was grim as well.
“Don't talk about something like this in front of Grandpa. He'll be worried sick.” Surely Sophie and Tristan will return
to us safe and sound. What they're doing there now is righteous and good. They will come home to us, won't they?
Although Ysabelle knew she couldn't say such things at home, she couldn't resist the urge to express her feelings.
Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to sleep.
“Why don't we give them a call, Aunt Sarah?” Even though they couldn't go to Anglandur to visit them, hearing their
voices was good enough for them.
“Okay.”
Sarah then quickly made a phone call to Tristan. Surprisingly, the call went through almost immediately.
“Hey, Sarah! Yes, don't worry. We're fine. Sophie's super busy right now, so she couldn't talk much to you.”
As soon as the call got through, Tristan briefly chatted for a while and hung up after that.
Ysabelle wanted to chat with Sophie for a bit, but she didn't have the chance to do so.
“Why is Sophie so busy?” Sophie always seemed to be preoccupied with something, no matter where she was.
“All right, enough of that. You can feel at ease now that we know they're safe and sound. With Tristan around, he'll
protect Sophie well.”
They should all have faith that the duo would be able to return home safely.
“All right. I know.”
Feeling extremely bored, Ysabelle had no choice but to look for Felix. Despite being busy, Felix took some time off
after seeing her arrive at his office to accompany her.
He even requested his secretary to bring some desserts over.
“What's wrong? You seem really unhappy. Could it be that I'm too busy these days and don't have time to
accompany you? Once I'm done with all my stuff, I'll definitely spend more time with you.” Felix missed her too, but
the problems at hand were simply too overwhelming for him to handle. He needed to take care of everything well
so Tristan wouldn't have to worry about anything while he was in Anglandur.
“Leave me be. I'm just feeling bored.”
Felix wrapped his arms around her waist.
“How could I leave you alone? You're the one I care most about in this world. I don't care about the others, but you
will always matter to me.” After finishing his words, Felix kissed her on the lips. She was his most treasured
sweetheart, after all.
