Chapter 772
Tristan and Ysabelle exchanged glances with each other, and Ysabelle retreated aside silently.
All right, I’m just going to keep quiet then. I’m so pathetic. I’m just here to accompany Sophie. Why is he being so pedantic?
Seeing as the two of them finally stopped bickering, Sophie continued with her work.
Meanwhile, Butterfly was alone at Anglandur. If it weren’t for Sophie, she would have been caught.
With Sophie’s help, she didn’t feel as terrified anymore.
Somehow, she felt fearless.
In the end, the alarm was disabled. Even the red lasers that could kill were deactivated as well. Butterfly’s lips curled into a smile.
Sophie’s mellow voice came through the Bluetooth earphone.
“Butterfly, enough! How can you go to such a dangerous place all alone? You’ve got to be careful!”
Sophie felt a burden lifted off her chest when the problem was finally resolved. That was Anglandur’s armed base. She had no idea why Butterfly headed there alone.
Butterfly stuck out her tongue sheepishly.
“Okay, I know I’m in the wrong here, but I heard about a new weapon and couldn’t resist checking it out. I didn’t expect the security to be so tight, but with you helping me, I’m sure there won’t be any problem at all!”
It was rare that she could go on a holiday. Hence, she was determined to make the most out of her time by doing whatever she wanted.
Besides, there was nothing she couldn’t do with Sophie supporting her.
Sophie knew there was no stopping Butterfly, but she was relieved that nothing serious had happened.
“All right. I’m not going to disturb you further. You should go back to sleep,” Butterfly said. After all, it was still the early hours of the morning in Chanaea. However, she couldn’t help herself and exclaimed, “Sophie, it’s really fun here!”
Sophie was rendered speechless.
How is an armed base her personal playground? She is going too far.
However, Butterfly had always been an unbridled person. Nobody could stop her from pursuing what she wanted.
“Be careful. Call me if anything happens.”
After hanging up the call, Sophie walked over to the dining room for breakfast. However, she immediately noticed Tristan and Ysabelle sitting quietly at the table but not eating.
“Why aren’t you guys eating?” She had forgotten that she was just complaining about them being noisy moments ago.
She preferred to work in a quiet environment when she was focused on something.
Ysabelle cast an aggrieved look at her.
“Sophie, are you also sick of me now?” She had finally found some free time and came here to accompany Sophie.
Sophie patted her on the head.
“Of course not. Don’t overthink. Let’s have breakfast together!”
“But Tristan said he didn’t buy any breakfast for me!” Ysabelle immediately started complaining after Sophie made that offer.
Tristan was not intimidating at all in Sophie’s presence. Hence, Ysabelle didn’t have to be afraid and could speak her mind.
“There is plenty of food here, and we can’t finish them all. It’ll be really wasteful to throw them away.”
Hearing that, Tristan had no qualms about sharing the breakfast. He was already getting coffee for Sophie.
“Don’t worry about her. She’ll eat if she wants to. Just let her be.” Tristan pulled out the chair for Sophie and asked her to sit down to have breakfast.
Ysabelle clenched her fists.
Fine. Their place, their rules.
She understood she didn’t have much say in the matter.
Besides, if she truly infuriated her uncle, he might really chase her out of the house.
The three of them then had breakfast together. Since it was the Christmas season, they had a lot of time to spare.
Tristan didn’t have much going on and only wanted to spend time with Sophie. As they were usually occupied with work, the two of them seldom had time for each other.
He was looking forward to spending some quality time with Sophie after returning from Horington, but Ysabelle had ruined his plan by coming all the way here.
Does she not realize that she is also in a relationship? Why does she have so much free time to become a third wheel?
After finishing breakfast, Ysabelle and Sophie sat on the couch to watch some TV. However, Ysabelle was not really interested in the program.
“Sophie, it’s finally holidays now. Let’s go out and have fun. It’s really boring to lounge at home.”
“Eh, it’s cold outside,” Sophie mumbled. She didn’t feel like going out.
Sophie finally had some time to herself and decided to take a few days to rest at home. Moreover, everywhere was overcrowded due to the Christmas season.
She didn’t like going to crowded places.
“Let’s go to the hot spring! It’s really warm there,” Ysabelle piqued. She felt like she would go insane from staying at home all day.
After clearing the table, Tristan called Felix.
“If you’re free, please come and take your girlfriend away so that she doesn’t become a nuisance to us,” Tristan said.
“Got it. I’m coming over to take her away right now.” Felix didn’t actually have much to do these days.
Despite him already having a girlfriend, his family arranged for him to go on blind dates.
Hence, Felix had been thinking if he should announce his relationship with Ysabelle. Otherwise, his elders would not let him off the hook.
Felix didn’t take long to arrive at Tristan’s place. Ysabelle let out a huff at the sight of her boyfriend. “What are you doing here? I heard you were busy going on blind dates recently,” Ysabelle said mockingly.
“Do you really want me to go for those blind dates? What are you going to do if I really fall for another woman?” Felix teased. He knew that Ysabelle was mad at him.
However, he was actually glad to see her getting mad. It meant that she truly cared about him.
“What do you mean what am I going to do? Tons of men like me. I can just find another guy I like easily,” Ysabelle retorted.
Felix didn’t know what to say, so he circled her into his embrace.
“How dare you! You’re a naughty little minx. I don’t want anyone else but you. How could you give up on me that easily?” Felix asked.
If they weren’t at Tristan’s mansion, Felix would have taught her a lesson right then and there.
What a heartless girl.
“No one else but me? Then why did you go on blind dates?” Ysabelle lost all rationale when she knew about him meeting other women.
She found it difficult to believe him right then.
“I didn’t go. Even if my family did arrange blind dates for me, I didn’t go to any of them. Don’t worry. I only have eyes for you. I won’t fall for another woman, no matter how pretty or capable they are,” Felix reassured her.
“Really?”
Ysabelle knew she was being unreasonable. However, she couldn’t help but get angry.
“Yes. Ysabelle, why don’t we announce our relationship? This way, my family won’t worry about me anymore,” Felix suggested.
“Announce our relationship? I don’t think now’s a good time to do so.” Ysabelle didn’t want to get married so young. She could already foresee the impending problems that awaited them following the announcement.
The problem was, she was not ready to face those problems yet.
“Why don’t we wait a little longer?” Ysabelle thought things were great between them right then, and there was no rush to make any changes.
