Chapter 805
“Do you have to be so enraged?” Tristan cast Felix a side glance.
“How could I not? No matter how she is, she’s still my girlfriend at the end of the day. How can you talk about her like that?” Regardless of how terrifying Mr. Tristan is, I still have to stand up for my girl!
“Since it pains you to hear criticisms about your girlfriend, hurry up and take her away! Stop letting her feel wronged by remaining here.”
Felix crossed the room toward Ysabelle and tugged her over to him.
“Let’s go, Belle. We’re going home.”
Humph! Does he think we like coming here? We’ll just leave since he thinks we’re a bother.
Ysabelle broke free from Felix’s grip.
“What do you think you’re doing, Felix? I’ve already packed my bags. I’m going to Anglandur with Sophie.”
“Ysabelle, you can’t help with anything even if you follow her there. Let’s just wait for them here.” He knew she wanted to help, but Sophie’s matters were never simple.
Not anyone could help.
“Even you think I’m useless, don’t you?” They all think that I’m useless. That’s why none of them want to bring me with them.
Felix wrapped his arm over her shoulder and gently pulled her into a hug.
“No one thinks you’re a bother. We’re just worried about you and don’t want any harm to come to you. That’s it.”
How can we think she’s a bother? No one in this room will have that kind of thought. We just want her to continue living in her ivory tower.
Felix’s heart ached at her putting herself down.
“Next time, okay? You can go with her on the next trip, but stay with me this time around. I also need you here with me.”
Ysabelle still wasn’t happy. She wanted to go with Sophie.
“Sophie, are you really not taking me with you?”
Sophie gently patted her head.
“Take her home, Mr. Northley.” Butterfly isn’t the only reason I’m heading to Anglandur. The mutated virus over there is dangerous too. Thus, I don’t wish anyone of them to follow me there. I don’t mind risking my life, but I can’t endanger anyone else’s.
“I’ll write you a new song once I’m back from Anglandur. How about that?” Sophie offered with a smile.
Ysabelle nodded resignedly, knowing Sophie had already made up her mind, and there was no changing it.
“All right, then. You must be careful since you’ll be going there alone. Remember to call me.”
Ysabelle felt aggrieved, but what else could she do about it? They already said she wasn’t any help even if she went.
That was why she chose to stay and not let them worry about her.
“Ysabelle, help me look after TS Entertainment since you’ll be there most of the time.” Sophie didn’t want her to overthink, so she assigned her a task.
“Okay, rest assured! I’ll help you watch over it and make sure nothing happens to the company!”
Since Sophie gave me a task, I’ll do my very best to complete it!
“You should head back since I’ll be leaving in a while. You don’t have to send me off.” Sophie didn’t need anyone sending her off since she would be leaving with Barney.
“Okay.”
With that, Felix took Ysabelle home. Tristan went inside the mansion and started packing his bags. However, Sophie grabbed his hand, stopping him.
“Tristan, I don’t want you to follow me there this time. Can you stay?” She didn’t want him in danger.
What if he’s infected by the virus?
Creases marred Tristan’s forehead at her request.
“You don’t want me either, Sophie? How can you go alone?” He had thought he was an exception.
He figured Ysabelle couldn’t accompany her, but he could, at least. That was what he assumed.
Why can’t even I go?
“You know what I mean.” She didn’t want to explain further since she knew he would understand her intentions after being together for such a long time.
“I know you’re worried about me, but I can’t agree with you going there by yourself.”
Since I know how dangerous the situation at Anglandur can be, all the more reason I can’t let her go alone!
“I’ve resolved to go with you no matter what.” I wouldn’t mind letting her go alone if it weren’t dangerous, but that’s not the case.
“Can you listen to me just this once, Tristan?”
Tristan couldn’t bear to reject her when she gazed at him with such pretty eyes. However, he also couldn’t let her go alone.
“Sophie, I can help you.”
Isn’t it better to have someone by her side when facing conflict? Why does she always want to push me out of her world?
“I—”
Sophie had already made up her mind but conceded in the end.
She couldn’t help but worry about his safety. However, she didn’t have a choice since he wasn’t someone who would change his mind easily.
When they arrived at the airport, Arius spotted Tristan tugging their luggage toward him while Sophie walked by his side empty-handed.
“I knew that brat would follow her. No one wants to go to Anglandur now, but he’s adamant about it.” Is this so-called true love? Is he planning to serve his life on a silver platter?
Barney was satisfied with Tristan as Sophie’s fiancé since the younger man treated her well and loved her very much.
“This is true love, okay? I asked you to date and get yourself a girlfriend, but you refused to listen. I’m sure you can’t comprehend what love is.” A couple in love is always like that. They always think of a
way to stay together, no matter the danger they might face. None of them wants the other to endanger themselves.
“True love? What can he do even if he goes there?” Arius figured Tristan couldn’t help Sophie with anything when it came to the medical field.
“He just wants to stay by Sophie’s side. Do you think he cares whether he can help out?” Barney was gratified regardless of Arius’ remarks.
Naturally, as Sophie’s mentor, he was glad she had found someone who loved her so much, and they lived happy lives.
Back when they were in Horington, he really felt bad for Sophie.
At that time, he thought he wouldn’t ever see another smile on her face.
Yet, he noticed Sophie was smiling more with Tristan around. Wasn’t that the definition of a blissful life?
Getting to know someone, falling in love, then being happy together—that was the true meaning of love.
“Tristan, you’re well aware you’ll only be our burden if you come, so why do you still want to go?” Arius questioned. His irritation was evident in his tone.
“That’s none of your business.”
Tristan ignored him.
He might not be knowledgeable in medicine but could’ve learned it if he had known Sophie earlier. That way, he could be by her side every moment of the day.
However, it was a bit too late to study medicine by then.
Yet, that wasn’t a reason to stop him from accompanying her.
“Enough, Arius. Can you stop spewing nonsense?” Sophie barked. No matter how much I agree with Aruis, I’ll take my man’s side any time. No one can accuse my man of being useless. Truthfully, I’m happy that he can stay by my side. I didn’t want him to accompany me simply because I didn’t want to endanger his life.
