Changing Only For Her Chapter 374

Chapter 374

“Really? All you want is to have a meal with me?” she asked. How is that possible? I know him well.

Nicholas nodded profusely. “Don’t worry, for I’m telling the truth. All I want is to have a meal with you. What else can I do?” Nicholas asked patiently.

“Ha!” Sophie let out an icy snort.

Is he joking? Does he think I’m gullible enough to fall for his tricks? He went to great lengths to cause a ruckus just to capture me, right?

“Nicholas, let me make myself clear—I’m not your toy, and I don’t like you. No matter what you do, I won’t return to you,” she announced.

Some things just couldn’t be forced.

The smile on Nicholas’ lips disappeared slowly.

How could she be this cruel?

“Sophie, I can offer you anything you want. In the past, I told you I couldn’t marry you, but things are different now. If you wish, I can marry you right away,” he promised.

I can do anything as long as she is willing to come back to me.

Sophie furrowed her brows.

“Are you nuts? Why would I marry you? I’m not crazy,” she retorted.

Hurt rose in Nicholas’ heart. How could she say that? Does marrying me make her a fool?

“Isn’t having a grand wedding what women want? Can Tristan give you that? Will the Lombard family agree to let you marry him?” he demanded.

Sophie stared at him as if he was a lunatic.

“I’m willing to be with him. It doesn’t matter if we don’t hold a grand wedding as long as I love him,” she responded. Nothing was more important than herself. Thus, she valued her happiness more than anything else.

Nicholas’ expression turned frosty.

“After what I said, won’t you give me another chance? How could you do this to me?” he asked, on the verge of losing his mind.

Before coming here, he reminded himself not to fly into a rage.

Nevertheless, he couldn’t calm down after hearing her answer.

“What else do you want me to do?”

Nicholas had never really been in a real relationship. After all, he merely used women to spice up his life.

He could sleep with any woman he desired as someone would deliver them straight to his bed.

However, he was rendered helpless before Sophie. All he wanted was for her to keep him company.

It’s just a little request. Why wouldn’t she agree to it?

“I don’t want anything, so you’d better not do anything,” Sophie warned him coldly. She could be ruthless whenever the matter didn’t concern her. That was just her character.

Nicholas crushed the cup of coffee he was holding in an effort to tamp down his anger.

It was obvious that he was livid.

Nevertheless, he couldn’t be bothered about the consequences of his action, for no matter what he did, Sophie wouldn’t bat an eyelid.

After all, she didn’t have any romantic feelings for him.

Sophie was sure about that.

Nicholas didn’t want to resort to threats, but he had no other choice. “Are you sure about this? Do you want me to resort to harming you before you cave in?”

He was forced to stoop this low.

“If you’re planning to harm Tristan, go ahead. I will make your life a living hell if you dare to lay a hand on him,” Sophie warned.

She had to make him believe that it wasn’t just a verbal threat; she was capable of doing that.

“Really? I must kill him, then. That’s the only way you’ll come back to me,” came Nicholas’ answer.

If that were his only choice, he wouldn’t hesitate to carry the deed out.

Nicholas was confident that he could do that, for he was in his own territory and had an advantage over her.

Sophie’s face was devoid of any expressions as she said, “Looks like we are at odds from now on.”

I have no choice but to be at opposing sides with him.

Sophie rose to her feet as she assumed there was no point talking to him anymore.

Before Sophie could leave the cafe, Alex showed up with some men and blocked the exit.

Sophie turned over her shoulder to glance at Nicholas.

“Sophie, do you still think you’re in Jipsdale? Previously, I fell for your ruse as I didn’t see it coming. Now that you’re in Anglandur, you can never leave. Besides, isn’t it a good thing for you to keep me company?” Nicholas asked.

Why does she insist on burning all bridges? I don’t want to do this, but it’s my only choice.

Sophie snickered icily. He’s being ridiculous but is blaming me instead. Does he think the world revolves around him?

“Nicholas Sable, are you sure you’re going to do this?” she demanded coolly.

Right then, Sophie’s phone rang. It was a call from Tristan.

Without hesitation, she answered the call right before Nicholas.

Tristan might have arrived home, so he will definitely show up here if I don’t answer his call. Something terrible might happen if they were to meet each other. I must answer his call now.

When the call was connected, Tristan’s calm voice rang out. “Where did you go? I didn’t know you had friends here. Where are you now? I’ll come to find you.”

“No need. I’ll be back soon, don’t worry,” came Sophie’s answer.

There was no way she would let him come here.

“The butler told me you went to the cafe opposite the mansion, right? Stay right there. It is raining heavily, so I’ll come over and bring you back,” Tristan insisted.

It was pouring outside, so he got curious why she didn’t invite her friend back to the mansion and instead chose to meet the friend at the cafe opposite the mansion.

“Tristan, no need for that. Can’t I have some personal space?” Sophie asked.

“Sophie, that’s not what I meant. I’m just worried about you,” Tristan explained.

Sophie promptly told him, “But I don’t need your concern right now. I’m merely having coffee with my friend. Can’t I do that?”

“Sophie!” Right then, Nicholas called out Sophie’s name deliberately.

His voice was clearly heard by Tristan at the other end of the line.

He immediately questioned, “Who was that? Is your friend a guy?”

I’ve never heard this voice before.

“All right. I need to go now. I’ll be back soon,” Sophie responded as she shot Nicholas a glare.

D*mn it! He obviously did that on purpose.

After hanging up, Sophie got into a fight with Nicholas.

Alex stood aside and watched them helplessly. He didn’t know what he should do.

Boss left orders that no one is to hurt Sophie. We can only watch as they fight against each other. Since our last encounter a few years ago, Sophie has improved a lot. Her fighting skills are almost as

good as Boss’. Her existence would only threaten Boss’ future. What should I do to get rid of her? After all, Old Mr. Sable gave me a mission—to dispose of her.

Nicholas and Sophie were skilled at fighting and had been trained professionally, so it was a battle between two experts.
