Chapter 901
Chapter 901 He Truly Loved Her
“Do you know what Nicholas is up to?”
Felix was supposed to keep track of Nicholas’ every move, but he had overlooked his duty because he was too preoccupied with the breakup with Ysabelle.
Infuriated upon learning Nicholas’ scheme, he stormed in and pulled off his blazer, looking all flushed from the rushing.
“What does he think he’s doing? I swear this guy is a maniac! He’s getting the world’s best hypnotist to help him! We all know what he’s after!” he raged as the three stared at him.
Charles was staggered at the news.
This guy is deranged! It’s clear as day that Sophie has no feelings for him! Why is he so obsessed? He’s completely nuts.
“What should we do now, Mr. Tristan? Is Sophie aware of this? I suppose we should let her know what is going on.”
“We should. I’ll talk to her tonight. I need a foolproof plan. This guy is not leaving Jipsdale alive,” Tristan replied, clenching his fists subconsciously.
There was no way he would allow anyone to do anything to his woman.
Nodding at Tristan’s statement, Sean assured, “Don’t worry. I’ll make the arrangements. You should keep Sophie company just in case he makes a move on her.”
The lawyer knew Tristan would be shattered if he ever lost Sophie.
That night, Tristan headed straight to the medical association to pick Sophie up. Upon seeing her, he pulled her into his arms.
“What’s the matter? Did something happen?” Sophie asked, noticing that Tristan was behaving differently.
“Let’s get in the car first. Tristan answered curtly. Without heeding the glances thrown at them, he held her by the waist and walked her to the car.
Having opened the door for her and watched her enter, he got into the driver’s seat.
“What’s going on? You look bothered,” Sophie asked again, worried.
“It’s about Nicholas Sable. I think it’s time we finish him off for good.”
From how Tristan held her hand, Sophie could tell the man must have found out about something.
“Relax. I know he got a hypnotist, but you have nothing to worry about. I know what to do.”
“I’ll just kill him and get this done and over with. It’s so annoying having to deal with him constantly.” Tristan snapped, exasperated that Nicholas kept coming between him and Sophie.
“I’m going to erase his memory of me. This is how I’ll get rid of him so he won’t be a nuisance to us anymore.”
When Sophie saw Tristan’s worry, she divulged her plan, hoping it would appease him.
“Well, no one knows what the hypnotist looks like. Nicholas has never met the person before either.”
“So?”
“I planned to get hold of that hypnotist before Nicholas does and swap them for someone else. We can pretty much eliminate all the risks that way,”
“Sounds like a plan. Let’s work together. I’ll get the hypnotist,” Tristan volunteered. He figured getting one’s hands on the hypnotist would be difficult since a big shot like them would usually have bodyguards protecting them.
“Great. I knew you would help me out.”“”
The couple was on the same page about the plan since an attempt on Nicholas’ life would invite vengeance from his family, but on the contrary, if he had no memory of Sophie to begin with, Tristan and Sophie would not have to antagonize the Sable family.
That was the best solution for everyone because it would not endanger Tristan’s and Sophie’s families and friends.
Tristan and Sophie were less worried for themselves than for those they loved since the two could well protect themselves, given their capabilities.
Having known Sophie for a long time, Tristan knew just what she was worried about.
Later that night. Tristan brought Sophie to meet Sean, who agreed readily to Sophie’s plan when he found out about it
“This is truly the best thing we can do. Old Mr. Sable is not someone we can afford to cross, Nicholas is his only son, so he’ll definitely avenge his son’s death, but if we erase Nicholas’ memory, then no one will be harmed
“So, we’re catching the hypnotist now. I can do that. I don’t have anything else to do, anyway.” Felix remarked, rubbing his chin.
With Ysabelle still upset with him and refusing to see him, he felt frustrated to the core and was craving an assignment to take his mind off Ysabelle.
“Are you sure? It’s going to be a difficult task. You’ll have to go through many bodyguards before getting to the hypnotist. Powerful people like them are usually vigilant.”
“Come on, Mr. Tristan. You have nothing to worry about. I know how important this is. I won’t let you all down
“Felix,” Sean interrupted, “I think I should go instead. You’d better stay back with how things are between you and Ysabelle. She’ll get madder if you leave now.”
Although Sean was convinced that Felix would pull off the job well, he believed that Felix should first solve his problem with Ysabelle before doing anything else. After all, relationships were important.
“Sean is right, Felix. You should stay back and sort things out with Ysabelle.”
None of the people present truly believed Felix would break up with Ysabelle.
“She and I both need time to cool off, and this is the perfect opportunity for me to do so,” Felix insisted.
“Fine, Felix. You will be in charge of this, but Sean will be following. I think you should go with a partner.”
Sean nodded in agreement at the proposal.
“What about me? Is there anything I can do?” Charles asked, feeling left out.
“I have something else for you to do,” Tristan said calmly.
“All right.”
Having hashed out their plan, everyone had dinner together until a call interrupted the meal.
Seeing it was Ysabelle, Sophie got up to speak with her outside since she did not want to upset Felix.
“Who is it? Just pick up the call here,” the men asked. To them, Sophie was a friend close enough for them to risk their lives for her, so they could not understand why she did not feel at home around them.
“It’s Ysabelle!” Tristan replied instead.
He saw the caller earlier since he was sitting right next to Sophie.
Charles and Sean glanced at Felix at the mention of that name.
“What on earth happened, Felix? What’s with the fight? Everything has been going well between the two of
How did things come to this point? The fight sure is dragging out.”
you.
Everyone wondered if the breakup was serious.
At the question, Felix poured himself a glass of alcohol and answered, “Don’t ask me, man. I have no idea what happened. As you said, everything was fine until the fight broke out.”
Charles shook his head at the sight.
“I think you should just give up. You guys are not married yet, so it’s still not too late to break it off. At least both families won’t be affected.”
Felix glared at Charles and chastised, “Cut the nonsense. There’s no way I’m giving up. Do you think this is all a game to me?”
Despite the agony the relationship had caused him, he truly loved Ysabelle and did not wish to let her go.
